Animes 
Edit
| Anime | Ep. | Review | Rating | ||
| Soul Eater | DONE | One of my classic Animes, i liked the concept of the souls and about Asura, great final battle, however Maka's personality change caused a bit of irritation, other than that good anime. | 7.9/10 | ||
| Full Metal Alchemist | DONE | One of my favourite anime, i loved the concepts of alchemy, alot of comedy and the storyline was intense, epic and kept me going!. Might watch again... | 9/10 | ||
| Lucky Star | DONE | One of the funnier animes, even though there was no storyline per say. The comedy and the slice of life aspect with the add-on of "Lucky Channel" made it a great anime! OVA-The OVA was actually pretty funny....and also the Lucky Star OVA was the first OVA I've seen. | 7.9/10 | ||
| Ladies vs. Butlers | DONE | One of the more profane animes i've seen..like really. The ending was funny but intense, the characters were developed but not overly developed. | 7.3/10 | ||
| Dōjin Work | DONE | This anime even though it was short had a lot of laughs, the characters were diverse even though the storyline was near minimum. Late arrival extra: Ohh yeah did I forget to mention the embarrassing fanservice brought upon the main lead....hehe.....well what did you expect from an anime with it's name called Dōjin Work?????..another words besides from the gratuitous fanservice a funny anime. | 7.9/10 | ||
| Code Geass | DONE | This anime is one of the political kind, it got me hooked and it had a great storyline, some very tearful moments. The characters are all very diverse and the main cast being both immense and interesting all the same. The storyline as before is great, the planning, what people's reactions are...and the political elements made it even more intense. Though there was a bit of comedy the intensity of the storyline itself made it great not to mention the MAJOR twists that show up here and there. The drama becomes intense during the second season and on speaking of which...the ending to Code Geass...was well....absolute tearjerker... OVA (Nunnally in Wonderland): Hehehe...this is a pretty good anime, by incorporating Code Geass lore with Alice in Wonderland (specifically Disney's Alice) making a VERY funny and VERY cameoed OVA, with most of the respective characters from the anime have similar roles in Alice in Wonderland. The comedy was HILARIOUS, not to mention the weird art shifts that arises. This OVA's main attraction would be the characters roles via Alice in Wonderland, not to mention Lelouch's narration of the entire thing..hehe...Lelouch is a bit possessive over Nunnally no?. Anyways...great OVA for those Code Geass and maybe even Alice in Wonderland fans. <LA looks at FR>... LA: FR...watch this OVA...tis great!. | 9.8/10 | ||
| Air | DONE | One of the more depressing animes i've watched, the storyline arced too many times, however the character's plots were ok. However the ending was a bit of a tearjerker...no really..the beginning and middle may have been a bit boring and a bit confused, but the ending was a tearjerker. | 6/10 | ||
| Fate/Stay Night | DONE | A very good anime, liked it very much, good storyline, good character development and was intense all the way. Might watch again... | 9.8/10 | ||
| Chobits | DONE | Ehh.. this was a good (but not great) anime, storyline was ok, and the ending was also ok. This anime is practically showing us what would happen if humanoid robots would serve us?. It goes kinda deep into that concept, the comedy was kinda...weird as it had fanservice while the comedy was taking place...also the little robot..Sumomono??..I think..well THAT ROBOT WAS FREAKIN' ANNOYING..anyways besides that, not a bad anime..but could have done better. | 7/10 | ||
| Kuroshitsuji | DONE | Season 1-One of thee best animes I've watched, simply blown away, the jack of all animes, definitely getting the second season of this as well as watching it again!!! Note:I've watched the first season three times now... Season 2- Crazy, this season, didn't like Alois one bit also Claude was an obvious copy of Sebby, plot was crazy and confusing, character development was also mixed up, All in all .....Season 1 was better. | Season 1-10/10 Season 2 - 9/10 | ||
| D.N.Angel | DONE | This is a good Harem anime, it had some nice twists as well as Romance being little bit predictable. Either way good anime and it was funny was well. There was however more harem than action in this anime, trust me. | 8.7/10 | ||
| ChäoS;HEAd | DONE | This anime is like a mindblast in a box seriously, techno mumbo jumbo, but the character...h heck it was just confusing!!. Good storyline though...i think >_> | 7.5/10 | ||
| 11eyes | DONE | This anime had a scary start but as the episodes progressed it went epic!!!.....very good storyline, characters and fighting!!! OVA-ECCHI..COMPLETELY...I'm not going to detail but it's what you call a errr.....Eroge-WTFudge-22-minutes-of-crude-humor?? | 8.7/10 | ||
| Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan | DONE | Season 1- Ok...a very violent domestic anime....the only things that let it down was the grotesque detail in some scenes and obviously Dokura-chan killing and revival(Piri Piri..waaaay too much) Sakura, countless times.. >_>. Season 2- What the Fudge.....hasn't learned from it's previous season, actually it got worse....the kills on Sakura just got weirder and the storyline...THERE is none, it's just a couple of episodes with no plot, bit of fanservice(if you call it that) and Sakura....being killed...like more than 5 times in one episode......in all...a weird insanely trolled WTFudge is going on here season..... | Season 1- 5/10 Season 2-4.5/10 | ||
| Puella Magi Madoka☆Magica | DONE | Wow..ok, this was a different kind of anime i've watched, such as the distortions, the storyline, character development and the amazing plot twists. It was a very interesting anime. The only thing this anime lacked in any anime was comedy, however the amazing plot twists and the storyline in itself made up for it. The storyline itself was majorly intense though it didn't show up not until like the 4th episode but the rest of the time it was full out twists and angst. The character development was also brought upon alot which LA liked, in all PMMM is a very interesting anime and one which LA vouches as a nice combination of magical girls, huge plot twists and action. | 9.8/10 | ||
| Chrono Crusade | DONE | Another interesting anime, one about God, Heaven and Hell and the Church, good storyline, the demons were a bit scary. the ending man, CLIFFHANGAR!!, overall nice anime (even with the added comedy) | 8.9/10 | ||
| FLCL | DONE | This anime..well..it was weird, the storyline was weak but it was funny in a ways, the music was pretty good(all Rock)......the fights were crazy though...... | 7/10 | ||
| Invader Zim | DONE | Well, this anime/cartoon is another interesting one, loved Zim and GIR, the storylines were crazy and good crazy at that. | 8.9/10 | ||
| DeathNote | DONE | Wow...just wow....one the greatest animes I've ever watched, just great, no awesome, everything was formed right, had everything, even though it was just a mystery anime. Just wow........I would recommend this to anyone, just anyone........the storyline was split into 2 "sections" in which LA thinks, BOTH parts were awesome. The character interactions ESPECIALLY between L and Light was absolutely fascinating, like playing reverse chess inside your mind. The fantasy element to the storyline just forms it perfectly and add that with the mystery and it's golden. It had a bit of comedy, however the overpowering intensity of the anime itself still gives it a great feel to it. However the "second" section of the storyline did hmph hmmph.. "mellow" out, however the ending pulled it together greatly, awesome! | 10/10 | ||
| Ah! My Goddess! | DONE | Ok...how do i say this?...ahhh hmmm.. it was a sorta funny anime, however most of it was..well cheeeesy..it was a Harem as well err... that's all I got to say, Cos I was hard to review this anime....ermmmm | 7.5/10 | ||
| Afro Samurai | DONE | Ok, firstly it's a gorey anime which one of my family members wanted me to see....ok gorey a bit of good storyline but the gorey part put me off.....ok that's it. | 8.9/10 | ||
| D.Gray Man | DONE | After Suman Dark Fallen Arc- Wow...just wow...another full claps here, a great fantasy drama anime, and a excellent leading lady to boot ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥Lenalee Lee♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ <Stormfall hits LA> Ahhh anyways, one hell of a brilliant storyline, always getting me hooked, even in the fillers and that's not something an anime can do. Suspense, storyline plot, characters all perfect...wow...and *sniffs*...a great anime and I haven't even finished it *sniffs*. Ending- *sniffs* Wow...again..just brilliance, this anime is perfection. It was suspenseful, I was crying and laughing.........*sniffs*, thee best anime I have ever saw, just sheer brilliance, I will watch this anime all over again and again, it'll never get old, I love this anime!...also ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥Lenalee Lee♥♥♥♥♥♥♥,GO D.GRAY MAN!..ohh god I need tissues...... | Suman Dark Fallen Arc- 10/10 Ending - 10/10 Overall - 25/10 | ||
| Bleach | Ep. 112/310/345~ B | Up to Soul Society Arc Review(1 ~ 63)- This arc in the anime is very good, the storyline, the fighting, the goofs, the constant arguing of Ichgo and Renji. The only thing that is and will be extremely annoying about this arc was the stupid Don and the "Kakakura Squad" fillers..just kiddish and plain. The plan revealed was ...well wow.... Now character development; very good as it set and explained everything within the arc. This arc gave off a political/fighting/humor side to Bleach which I like(check the rest of my animes why). NEED MORE BLEACH..Kon not the real Bleach...the ANIME BLEACH!!!! <LA kicks Kon> Hmm Hmmmm >_>. (Note:The only reason the Soul Society arc only got a 9 instead of the full 10 was because of the Don and the Kakakura Squad fillers Bount arc (64 ~ 91)- Hahahaha.....this entire arc is a joke. The battles, the storyline, the VILLAINS are entirely weak, it's as if Ichigo has forgotten how STRONG HE IS ABSENTMINDEDLY FORGETTING HE CAN DO MUCH BETTER!??!?!?!. When I thought the Kakakura Squad were annoying, the new Modified Souls are JUST AS ANNOYING..also one question...why IS THIS FILLER ARC 28 EPISODES LONG!??!?!....LA is not pleased with this filler...FAIRY TAIL HAS BETTER FILERS THAN THIS. Well...this arc is now a COMPLETE MOCKERY OF BLEACH. In all....the characters were absolute dumbasses..ESPECIALLY ISHIDA, the fighting scenes equaled to nil and most were pretty crappy at that, aaaand they pulled stuff STRAIGHT OUTTA THEIR ASSES WITH NO "LOGICAL" EXPLANATION. Screw this arc, screw the Bounts, screw the f**king angst... Ahhhh...where are thou the real Bleach? Bount Assault on Soul Society arc (92 ~ 109) - Continuing on from the stupid Bount arc...well this arc..........didn't expect LA's expectations one bit. The only part LA liked was the Bount "dropping like flies"...cos most of them were VERY annoying. This arc also had their storyline derailed....like 5 times. LA found most of them out, even found out that Ishida could just as easily killed the Bount leader making the arc over and done with. Another words, the storyline from the continuation of the previous arc...in complete shambles, sometimes the logic not making ANY sense as to why some of the characters do what they did, or more so the leader's true true plans (It was confusing as to what Kariya really wanted to do to the point he HAD 2 ULTERIOR MOTIVES THE LAST ONE SHOWN IN THE FINALE EPISODE)...soo annoying that LA had to point out TO THE CHARACTERS that there were easier ways through all this crap. Also LA points out the gratuitous amounts of THE SAME FLASHBACK...that got annoying as well....(WE KNOW THAT HAPPENED/WE KNOW THAT INFO, WHY BOTHER ADDING IT AGAIN WHEN WE SAW WITHIN A DIFFERENT EPISODE!!!!) The ending?....LA waaaaas confused...seriously. In all...this arc did better in the previous arc, for one sole reason.....the Bounts "finally dropping like flies." Arrancar: The Arrival arc - | Soul Society arc- 9/10 Bount arc - 3/10 Bount Assault on Soul Society arc - 5/10 Arrancar: The Arrival arc - ??/10 | ||
| Fairy Tail | Ep. 175/175 | Pilot to Starting Tower of Heaven Arc-Well what can I say another perfect-action-comedy anime I've watched. Firstly I thank Xion Auora732 for also pointing out this anime. This an is action-awesomeness anime, full of action and comedy (Natsu arguing with Gray then Erza stopping them..Ahhh)...very comically and at the same time it sucks you into the battle or situation(BTW the fights are amazing), the characters are great(like D.Gray's) as well as the concept of magic, the storyline is very interesting is also straight forward and to the point, this anime has potential(just like D,Gray) Tower of Heaven Arc to Oración Seis Arc - Well more character development as well as more new characters, once again the actionness was great and once again most parts were funny especially Happy, the storyline progression was also good. Finally this anime still has potential...as the peaks are just *wow* amazing..... Daphne Arc to Edolas Arc - Ok firstly I hated the first parts of Daphne Arc, the fillers were funny, as for the Edolas Arc, it was interesting, the character development again was good, the fights even better and of course the plot itself was great and uncovered some secrets. All in all Daphne Arc...no go, Edolas Arc...was awesome... Tenrou Island Arc - Wow..the best Arc so far, the fights were amazing as per usual, the comedy and action were just spectacular. The ending......epic...OoOOoohh can't wait for the next arc!!!. Aye sir!! Key of the Starry Sky Arc - Ok so this filler arc was well....had a VERY slow start...but all the hijinks of FT was still there. However as the arc carried on the its main plot, LA just kept getting more and more confused by its storyline, then near the ending LA though LA finally got some points...then well more questions just piled up. However this was remedied by the ending of this arc...which made much more sense. In terms of plot twists, it was pretty good but the confusion factor was the reason why. The action and comedy once again was there (FOR A FILLER), Fairy Tail filler arc outbeats Bleach's filler arcs!. Anyways LA ONLY annoyance in this entire arc is three words..."Jiggle Butt Gang"...that is all. In all a confusing yet promising filler arc done well. Now onto the exciting GMG ARC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Grand Magic Games Arc - This arc was decent. Ok LA has a few things to say about this arc, for one, the starting up of this arc was ok, with the developments set and the rivals and hidden rivals even better at that. Then it starting picking up with the tournament style based storyline in which most of the MAJOR fights were extremely interesting with the few minor ones i which LA wanted those to be done and dusted as soon as possible so it can get to the good fights. This arc did well in the fighting most of the time and the other non vs. battles were interesting and even more with the behind the scenes stuff making it even better...then however LA heard the news which shattered LA for a while...that Fairy Tail was going to be cancelled...this not only dampered LA in real life but dampered this arc as a whole as it ended halfway through...NOT GOOD. From this, LA can say for this "halfway" end of this arc's ending was decent with the finale ending on a CLIFFHANGAR...that in itself was great but not for the cancellation, the finale did state "To be Continued", so hopefully there will be more to come for this great anime. In all, due to the cancellation halfway through it lowers the score of this arc, but did well within the ending anyways and the fighting and plot development was extremely decent which did balance out everything from fighing and developing the plot when need be, in all a decent arc, but if it hadn't been cancelled and carried on, it would have been an awesome, amazing arc.....LIVE ON FAIRY TAIL!!!!! <LA points LA's index finger up in the air>... OVA's-Bit of Ecchi, comedy, time travel, school?....hehehe...the first two episodes were just crazy, however "Memory Days" was just hilarious! AYE!. Now the 4th OVA...FANSERVICE HEAVEN (Yeah...though it has lots of fanservice, the OVA's cover it up pretty good through character development...yeah...that actually happens) as well as some heartwarming and well actiony/crazy moments. The 4th OVA takes place, LA thinks before the beginning of the Grand Magic Games arc and man...does the 4th OVA have something awesome......all the female members of Fairy Tail drunk!!!!!!!. Fairy Tail OVA's...LA bids you a great set of OVA's!!!. Overall-Overall?..hmmm...GREAT ANIME!! COMPLETELY RECOMMEND FOR THOSE WHO LIKE ACTION FANTASY ANIMES!!!, definitely recommend it, one he' of an anime parring to D.Gray Man, awesome!, the fight scenes, the plot, everything....brilliance... AYE SIR!!!!!!! Priestess of the Phoenix OVA: A nice Fairy Tail: Priestess of the Phoenix...that being a prequel. It brings up Eclair's story before the start of the movie and how Momon came to be. It was a short OVA but it did tell more about the new characters who appeared in the Fairy Tail Movie. The ending of this OVA was pretty heartwarming though. In all, this OVA being a prequel to the movie was pretty good. | Tower of Heaven Arc-10/10 Oración Seis Arc- 10/10 Daphne Arc- 8/10 Edolas Arc- 10/10 Tenrou Island arc - 12/10 Key of the Starry Sky Arc - 8.9/10 Grand Magic Games arc- 9.5/10 Overall- 30/10 | ||
| Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu | DONE | Season 1- Well its a good "school" anime, with SUMMON CREATURES!!!!, it had a good storyline as well as a bit of harem.....from both.....errrr....yeah, anyways it had unexpected situations as well as the fact it was funny..in a ways...also SEASON 2 here I come! Season 2 - YES!!!, this season outbeat the previous season, better plot, better summon wars and harem romance gone wrong?..baka.....it's a great harem school anime, the comedy was extremely funny as well...though slightly perverted at times.. >_>. A Great Season!! | Season 1 - 8.9/10 Season 2 - 10/10 | ||
| Occult Academy | DONE | Hmm...another weird one...with occult stuff(duh)....hmmm...weird and complex storyline, plot was everywhere(and a bit messed up)....and the characters were.....errr...diverse???......and had the weirdest ending... | 7.5/10 | ||
| K-On!! | DONE | Season 1- Ok this anime...LA revised LA's mind with a clear mind...and quite frankly this anime...this slice of life..is just...BORING. Well the characters themselves are your typical stereotypical slice of life characters...no seriously. Then we have the plot.....which is......girls drinking tea all day and not having any training for a band and loofing around. However for such a series...it's kinda good..LA say to say. Yeah there are no obstacles in the way for the main cast (that or it gets resolved REALLY easily) but all animes doesn't need to have those kind of things however...it's just...GRRRR...LA can't explain it......ohh wait....it's the moe right...but there's no storyline...no proper developing one...>_>. GRRR...this anime both annoys and confuses LA through the premise alone. For a music anime..there's isn't much of it...just...girls drinking tea all day...GRRR...as LA said....it's hard to explain. And there isn't much of a comedy...just more like the same jokes put in some episodes but under certain context...but essentially the same jokes. GRRRRR... Special: A special episode folks...in which it has the same formula from Season 1...so another words...high school stuff, a dilemma happens which quickly gets resolved, back to normal............yeah watch this special only if you want to, either way it won't be affecting the sooooo called story... Season 2- <LA sighs>.....another season...ok. Well.....the 2nd season has practically the same formula from the previous season...but has "sorta" a storyline albiet a bit of stronger one than the previous season...but the ending was a heartfelt at the very least...but again...the formula is being used again...which...kinda makes boring...but GRRRR....this season annoys LA to no extent...not only does it make it out that they are trying to put a storyline...but then put needless stuff in there that distracts us from it sometimes....GRRRRRRR....but this season was at least better than the previous..."just"...<LA sighs>...LA knows this is a sorta bad anime in terms of storyline.....but why does LA like this???...why???.....why has LA gave this anime season an above average score???... | Season 1- 7.2/10 Season 2- 7.8/10 | ||
| Neon Genesis Evangelion | DONE | Well, this is another "different kind of anime". Firstly the characters were diverse with a really complex storyline(includ. ending). The character development was a bit on the edge (psychologically). It was an interesting anime, though I'm still confused. The best parts of this anime is mainly on the battles with the Angels...hmmm...this is difficult to review...however from this, this is an overall good anime though a bit confusing during the end-ish. The End of Evangelion - Ok first I got something to get out the way <LA vomits> Ok now...better ending to NGE, however the basis of the plot was confusing, however I did know a bit. The blood and gore was a turn off, as well as the errr....it was a bit disturbing. All in all, this ending was better than the previous one..by a bit. | 8.9/10 The End of Evangelion - 9.8/10 | ||
| The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya | DONE | Another odd anime. Though the characters were different, the plot was good, though the Episode line-up caused it to make it a bit confusing. The storyline was interesting especially the ending which was semi-epic. All in all, a good anime. | 8.9/10 | ||
| Pandora Hearts | DONE | This anime was interesting, what with the Alice and Wonderland (well properly it's Through the Looking Glass) anyways, nice plot, a bit twisting, the character development and characters themselves were interesting. The fights were good as well. Good Anime for Alice in Wonderland fans. | 9/10 | ||
| A Channel | DONE | Season 1-Ok...review for this anime...you could say it's a bit of Lucky Star and K-On! with a weird "what did she just say!?!?!, and fall over" factor..alot of it, the story was slow moving, though the comedy was great. Hmmm might get the second season....errr..... +Smile - These 2 extra episodes...was the same regular format with the same slice of life comedy. The storytelling is good in the sense of slice of life and the comedy is good in the slice of life sense and yeaaahhhh...LA didn't say this in the Season 1 review but this series is moe point blank. Once again for a slice of life, it does have some heartwarming moments in these 2 extra episodes. Well...all LA is going to say about these two extra episodes are...slice of life comedy with a bit of heartwarming... Specials - Well these 2 specials were more or less the same skits as the main storyline but focuses on one little thing, the first special was more canon, the other.....was for laughs... | 7/10 | ||
| Fight Ippatsu! Jūden-chan!! | DONE | Ayee...ok this anime had ALOT OF ECCHI AND I MEAN ALOT. The storyline was ok, funny as well, however the fanservicing Ecchi..could have had been toned down to 0. The finale...ehhh.. OVA- Practically the same as the original yet they took the Fanserviced Ecchi...UP TO AN ELEVEN.... | 7.5/10 | ||
| C³ | DONE | Well this is an expect the unexpected anime...seriously. The story was great with twists and mystery...alot of them, comedy came in as well. The finale was semi-epic...in a ways.. Special: Ahhh a Camping fanservice special with a mystery section to boot. Ok this special is just outright fanservice, but there are a few jokes here and there, not to mention the "mystery" being at least decent. In all, this special is ok...full of fanservice and for those who don't like fanservice, the mystery will at least be something to watch. | 8.9/10 | ||
| Akane-iro ni Somaru Saka | DONE | Ok..your typical err....maybe not your typical harem....trust me >_>..though the comedic romance and the psychological side of it was mild yet not as big, well, the storyline was a bit eerie..or should I say cringe?, the characters and development were ok, nothing big out of the ordinary animes. Finally the final episode..seriously just the weirdest and cringed ending eva...specially for a harem >_>.. OVA- Seriously, eeehhh.....a cringed semi-ecchi OVA.......ayeeee... | 7.8/10 | ||
| Avatar -The Last Airbender- | DONE | Book of Water-Ehhh..it's an ok anime/cartoon. Elemental Magic as it's concept, it currently has a good storyline, the fillers were just plain boring, the fights were ok. Comedy was also ok. In all, Book of Water...is ok...nothing great so far. Book of Earth - The story finally picks up as well as the plot thickening, the character development were ok. The fights...errr..also ok....it's just got a bit better from the previous Book. That is all. Book of Fire - Finally some better fighting!!, especially during the penultimate episode, the character development was.....kinda annoying, the war battle strategies was good, as well as the comedy, the fights were the best out this Book. | Book of Water - 7.8/10 Book of Earth - 8.1/10 Book of Fire - 8.9/10 Overall: 8.7/10 | ||
| Gunparade March | Ep. 7/12 XX | I HATE THIS F**KING ANIME I HATE THIS F**KING ANIME....LA had to headesk LA THREE TIMES BECAUSE THIS ANIME IS JUST BATS**T DULL...ARGHHHHH!?!??!?!.... The first half was mecha/action....ha ha ha...more like the first ten minutes..LA is disgraced by this anime...LA didn't even want the Episode to be DONE...LA is still keeping the two XX's and THAT rating.

Now here's something LA doesn;t get....teenagers get killed from aliens ok...but with that...HOW IS THE COUNTRY STABLIZED, the ECONOMY IS STILL STABLIZED AND STILL HAS MATERIAL FOR MAKING MULTIPLE STORES, EVEN STILL HAVE JEWERELLY..EVEN THOUGH THERE IS AN ALIEN INVASION...GRAHHHHH!??!?!?!?!??!?...THIS JUST PISSED LA OFF TO NO END, IT'S NOT F**KING LOGICAL...at the very least NGE had a VERY good excuse/defense as to why the city is still standing...this anime...doesn't give ANY REASON!?!??!?!?!?!?...GRAHHHHH!??!?!?..THIS IS ONE PIECE OF S**T OF AN ANIME....the stupid cliched terms, gossip???...and a storyline that goes NOWHERE, POINTLESS PLOT POINTS THAT DOESN'T GET USED..F**K YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!......don't watch this anime...LA's eyes just melted 12 times....just-just-just...don't watch this piece of s**t. | 0/10 | ||
| Gift ~Eternal Rainbow~ | DONE | Harem, harem, and no I'm not talking about the Harlem Globetrotters.... *sighs*..ok here goes, harem, ALOT of drama as well as some errr...cliched harem aspects with a fantasy twist....a weird fantasy twist. The characters were bland except one, and the ending....well..dullest ending eva. | 5/10 | ||
| The iDOLM@STER series | DONE | The iDOLM@STER - WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW, thee best slice of life anime I've watched so far, and it had drama in it, and a villain!!, some great slice of life. The main characters (13 of them + 3 others) are extremely memorable, some of the scenes just gives me vibes as well as the comedy being great in all aspects, the storyline itself was extremely good and memorable as well as the drama sticking to you making you wonder how their going to get through it or what will happen. Now one of the best things about this anime....the music, ohh my god.....I'm just awestruck.....THE BEST MUSIC I've heard. A GREAT ANIME!!!!!. I WILL WATCH THIS AGAIN (AS WELL THE MUSIC!!) Special Episode (iDOLM@STER): Ahhh nostalgia, this special episode is one hell of a refresher back to the iDOLM@STER, the characters, the new skits occurring from all 14 girls as well as some the music numbers (+ some new ones) are back, this special is just great!!! Shiny Festa OVA's - Well new premise for the idolmaster gang, this time to an international music festival. All three OVA's comes with an "What If" depending on the group picked to represent 765Pro. Now Iori's group (OVA1) was in all...a bit on the childish side but it's kinda justified, the drama was there but it was a bit...well average, the music for Iori's group was upbeat and again a bit childish but in all pretty good. Now onto Chihaya's group (OVA2), where it was more mature and more on being yourself, the music was more mature as well upbeat as well, there was no drama in this OVA but more or so trying to find that muse. Finally Miki's group (OVA3), wow...love as it's central theme then ADD DRAMA towards it...another words very good...the music?...well LA put it something Kalafina would sing but tone it down...another words, awesome. In all an OVA 3 What If's situational basis with idolmaster was a pretty good idea and the OVA was awesome in LA's eyes (Well it's idolmaster!!!!)...in all a cool musical J-Pop OVA Xenoglossia - (The non-idolmaster elements review) This anime in a sense was a bit awkward what the premise of the show well...mecha's and girls...trying to protect the world from meteors and all. The storyline was at first calm..until halfway when it dropped a huge amount of angst and too many plot points arose as well as it going darker just like that, leading to some confusing incidents...as well as ass pulls. The ending was...annoyingly weird. The intensity of the plot was well..."too many things happening at once which leads to the confusion on which one you have to remember it from". This anime was all drama, a bit of action and no comedy...errrr....this anime needed a bit of work. Xenoglossia - (The idolmaster elements included review): <LA JACKHAMMERS LA's head>...I HATE THIS VERSION OF IDOLMASTER, nearly every single one of the characters' behaviors has completely flipped from their game adaptation that its unforgivable, the storyline is an insult to the idolmaster name and the whole robot x girl "relationship" was a slap to the face to those who are loyal to the idolmaster franchise. This anime shouldn't even bear the name idolmaster...it's just another mecha series plastering the name of idolmaster to disguise itself as one...LA HATES THIS VERSION...wanna watch a good idomaster anime?...watch iDOLM@STER NOT XENOGLOSSIA. Puchimas! Petit IDOLM@STER!: Ahh the iDOLM@STER's with their chibi counterparts. This 64 EPISODE anime short, is it any good?. Yes in the standpoint of an idolM@STER fan. The jokes are pretty funny though the animation has due to this being an anime short being lower quality, but that isn't something to be nitpicky about. This anime short is just funny with it's in-jokes, or more so anyone who wants to pick up on the idolM@STER series. Most of the chibi and the idolM@sters due get their time in the limelight and added with it's comedically bent stance it's some of the skits the characters do...it gives the chibi's their characteristics and errr...adorableness and gives the idolM@STER comedy outright. In all, this anime short is pretty good for the idolM@STER fans and a good start for the newbies...LA likes these shorts!!! Puchimas OVA - This OVA is just outright giving an intro to all the Puchimas IdolM@STERs...and it's pretty funny..hehe...a funny OVA with all the in-jokes. OVA - Well I've finally watched Idolm@ster OVA Live For You!..and what I think about it?...ABSOLUTELY WHAT THE F*** DID I JUST WATCH!?!?!??!. The main characters for this OVA is Haruka, Miki and Chihaya...though I think everyone had they're voice actors the same, the only let down was the cartoonish feel to it....it HAD A XENOGLOSSIA feel to it...the storyline for this OVA was weak. But the only props I have to say is that even though it had the Xenoglossia feel to it, the voice acting wasn't that bad....in all..it was an EHHHH....OVA, it wasn't THAT BAD either.... | The iDOLM@STER - 10/10 Xenoglossia - (The non-iDOL ver.) 6/10 (The iDOL ver.) - 4/10 Puchimas! Petit IDOLM@STER - 7.5/10 | ||
| Fruits Basket | DONE | Well...this anime was a good slice of life anime...with supernatural effects. The comedy was fine and a bit hilarious..Shigure...>_>.....anyways, the ending..was a WTFudge just happened moment, (it turned from a slice of life to a drama in one episode!), in all besides from the ending the rest was ok. | 8.7/10 | ||
| [C] - The Money of Soul and Possibility Control | DONE | Wow...another good but a different anime, with money with it's game and fighting like he'!!. The storyline was fast-paced and adrenalined, though it had to do with economy, the fact that the ending pulled off an epic performance made this anime AWESOME!!!. | 9/10 | ||
| Guilty Crown | DONE | Ok several words.....OMG...one he' of an epic anime..from EPISODE 1!!!....the music absolutely divine, the mecha battles awesome, the storyline is one dozey of one of EPIC PROPORTIONS. The intensity of this anime was overwhelming, I was literally at the edge of my seat for ALL THE EPISODES. The character development especially for the main character..BY GOD....Tis the best. The characters were absolutely memorable as well as the villains....crazy awesome. The ending...EPIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!....in all, this anime got all the points in which I would have wanted in an anime....UP TO AN ELEVEN!!!.... Lost Christmas OVA - this little OVA was a little prequel with a different main characters, but as it is a prequel it kinda set what some of the minor characters motivations were...by some LA means one. This OVA was ok...VERY actiony, also is the little blue haired girl voiced by Kana Asumi???...hmmm...anyways good OVA as it was a backstory for one to three characters... | 25/10 | ||
| Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai | DONE | Season 1 - Finally a good proper Comedic Harem with ecchi on the side, it's deconstruction of the Romantic Comedy up to an eleven. A nun, a vampire, a rich girl, a stoic, a maid, a scientist and a delinquent that is what makes up the main characters and they are all pretty funny and a bit memorable. The storyline though small is quite funny not to mention all the main casts interactions are just outrageously funny. Great Harem....FINALLY. NEXT - THIS SEASON WAS AWESOME. Not only did it succeed the previous season but well, the animation has improved but also it's more heartfelt with that fanservice hint. This season was a bit more serious yet still trying to be a harem fanservice show. The first half of the season did resolve some of the characters and character developments in some way as well as introducing new characters very smoothly, not only that but it still had that Boku wa Tomodachi flavour comedy as always. The second half on the other had gives us more tension with the entire harem, extremely well done character developments as well as their relationships as well as getting serious when it needs to without making it anyways contrived. The ending was just amazing in a heartfelt way and went extremely serious into the whole dynamic of the harem and the storyline. LA really enjoyed this season not only because of it's fanservice heaven but it gives off this harem fanservice show dynamic and really tries to both analyze what happens in this kind of show realistically and slightly tries to deconstruct it, which really did both surprise and amaze LA with this season. In all, this season surpassed the previous and did well with it's character development and relationships, fanservice heaven aside (which LA has proven above which can be put aside), this season was AMAZING, hope there's a third season!!!, cos LA REALLY wants to know what happens next!!!!!. OVA - Well...talk about a novel writing gone wrong...this OVA was extremely funny and a bit awkward (Rika takes the cake with her part). The in-jokes are back and funnier than ever...and a bit ecchi as always. Another words...funny OVA...though it really was a bit awkward sometimes.... | Season 1 - 10/10 NEXT - 12/10 | ||
| Steins;Gate | Ep. 17/25 Δ | Wow........just wow....a great cast of characters, comedy and time travel....SUGOI!!!!!. The storyline itself is a thriller sci-fi, absolutely great. The entire plot itself was pure gold as well as the ending, the concepts and storyline I totally got and it WAS THE BEST. It's like mixing Back to the Future II with Groundhog Day with an anime twist...........just wow......as well as the fact I like the main female protagonist..... OVA: Egoistic Poriomania - Once again comedy, and a bit of fanservice and a tie in about 7 months after the ending....tis was good, however the ending...made me wonder......!?@#@$&* better not......and can't wait for movie.....EEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!! | 24.75/10 ^ It's the choice of Steins;Gate that this anime will have this honorable rank in the ratings!, because I'm Hououin Kyouma!!!! | ||
| Working!! | DONE | Season 1 - Ok first off this anime had NO PROPER character development, though is slightly..I think, the characters are..errr... diverse...seriously diverse. The comedy stood out for it due to it's in-jokes...hehe.....in all not a bad slice of life anime...though it's missing some points. Season 2- >_>....it hasn't learnt from it's previous season, VERY slow character development again, storyline was here and there (for a slice of life as it is), however once again the in-jokes were as funny as ever...but that's it..... | Season 1 - 8/10 Season 2- 8/10 | ||
| Samurai Champloo | 行われ | This anime was samurai crazy cool, the moves, the swordplay all COOOOOOL!!!. The storyline did tangent a bit however weirdly it kinda connected. One episode however was a filler but WTFudge!?!?!...a baseball game turning into a massacre!?!?!?!?. This anime was unique a sense and the ending was a real tearjerker as well as getting at the edge of my seat, and again the comedy in this one was kinda funny. | 10/10 | ||
| Zero no Tsukaima Series | DONE | Season 1- Wow..hehe...a funny anime with a cool storyline to boot. The characters development was actually pretty good and the main characters are better as one of them is a tsundere XD. The plot itself was haremly but also intense during the near ending. The fights were great...sorta like...magic vs. sword. In all this season was actually pretty entertaining.... Futatsuki no Kishi - This season was pretty good, the insights of war as well as further character development and minor characters who actually had something to do with the main plot. The comedy was toned down a bit in this season, however the fanservice and plot was in all better than the previous season as there were some twists. IN all it was good season....bring on Princesse no Rondo! Princesse no Rondo - Well this season was HEAVILY FANSERVICE BASED...and the storyline was a bit weak compared to the other seasons, and ALOT more characters comes into the mix, well that and a few unexpected twists shows up....one in particular which was shocking to LA that LA had to clean LA's eyes to see WTFudge just happened. This seasons only downfall was it's weak storyline as the intro was ok, the ending was action-laden great...but..but the middle..well fanservice for almost 3 episodes straight?...you get the picture...everything was ok except the logic in some parts just came outta nowhere...I think.....LA is kinda confused with this season... F - A Well-balanced season here....more twists (which actually makes sense) and the same bats**t insane villain appears. The storyline was compelling even in it's harem sections yes..I'm saying it...it's HAREM sections, the fighting was taken up a notch ESPECIALLY IN IT'S FINALE...and ohh boy was the finale intense. Another words this season did it PERFECTLY in which Princesse no Rondo suffered.....FinalRest watch this season (as well as the rest)...this season in itself is must watch and ties up loose ends perfectly, BEST Season out of all the seasons. Overall: Hmmm...this anime is and should be for those harem/fantasy anime watchers...but it's largely harem with some good fighting scenes. The fanservice can be both good or bad (due to the overuse of it). The storyline for most of the seasons are pretty good but at times (I'm looking at you Season 3)..it just pulled logic straight out of it ass. In all, a good anime to watch for any fans of anime or the series itself. | Season 1 - 10/10 Futatsuki no Kishi - 10/10 Princesse no Rondo - 8.9/10 F - 11/10 Overall: 9.7/10 | ||
| School Days | Ep. 11/11/12 XX | MY GOD....what kind of harem is this?..is all the characters (including the minor ones) complete morons?..ohh and DEFINITELY is the main character, the main character is just a heartless relationship "third baser" one night stander.....jerkass. The storyline in itself was slow then went completely ballistic in terms of melodrama. In all I know what the ending is but not going to watch it, and quite frankly the main character deserved what had been coming to him....jerkass. In all in terms of "melodrama" tis was ok...nothing else..ohh and the comedy was no where to be seen....all it was was relationships and school..and the deconstruction of the relationship. OVA - I cannot believe what I'm going to say but the OVA's are seriously MUCH better than the main story in itself, no repercussions as well as Makoto not being such as jerkass. The OVA's were quite enjoyable...though a bit of fanservice got into them, as well as comedy..in all OVA's > Main. | 4/10 | ||
| Carnival Phantasm | DONE | FUNNIEST GAG anime I ever seen...Carnival Phantasm practically is Fate/stay night, Tsukihime as well a bit of Fate/Hollow Ataraxia/Extra was well...really it just mainly all of Type-Moon's anime all rolled into one a put with crazy funny skits. The rule of funny was up to an eleven in which some of the jokes didn't even make any sense but they put it in anyways and it was still funny. Due to Fate series as well as Tsukihime having really cruel storyline plot, this anime turns it around and shows all the happy and funny aspects of it....and pulls it off soooooooo well. It was so funny that LA will watch it again. Also Season 4, Season 4!. OVA: Once again funny again same as the main....good to see more Carnival Phantasm Special:Huh..I guess this is like the 5th Holy Grail War but in an 8-bit game...with some hilarious live-commentary.....ohhh Lancer died again XD HibiChika Special: This special is celebrating TYPE-MOON's 10th Anniversary...and in true Carnival Phantasm fashion...THIS SPECIAL WAS FUNNY AS HE'. It brings in 2 new characters Hibiki and Chikagi (These characters are from TYPE-MOON's mobile site) and their rants were also funny, what was REALLY funny was some of the past skits making a comeback and continuing their skits (such as Afterschool Alleyway Alliance) which in itself was GREAT as well as those Fate/Zero shout outs. Ahhh this special was just great...a gold mine of comedy. | 12/10 BEST GAG ANIME EVA...for those interested watch Fate/stay night and Tsukihime FIRST to get the gist of the jokes...they are soo FUNNY!. | ||
| The World God Only Knows | DONE | Season 1 - Another good anime I've picked for meself...the storyline came in "conquests", as a total of 4, along with some fillers...I think. It follows a boy contracted by a ditzy demon to hunt down loose souls inside girls at his school...another words...hilarity ensues. The comedy was pretty good as well as heaps of shouts outs from other animes. Also the storyline of the "conquests" wasn't to bad, you could call it a harem...with memory erasing effects causing it NOT to be a harem....anyways good anime...bring on season 2! Season 2 - I really liked this Season, better conquests and BETTER FILLERS...some were just cool loling most of the time, but the conquests were just great. The comedy, rich as always and seriously the conquests though it's only 3 of them...the plot for each were pretty good. Bring on Season 3!, Season 3! OVA - The OVA...holy crud, the entire thing was a frame off for K-On!, though once again, funny and somewhat cliffhangary...which is good. The comedy once again funny as always. Good OVA and MANY K-On! references. Tenri-hen - <LA squees>....sorry LA had to do that. So a story about Tenri eh???. This story is mainly based through your "childhood friend" you've forgotten with pretty extreme events occuring within the same time. Not only that but it still has the TWGOK comedy and drama flavour as well as some new mythos on it's universe as well...but it's more or less it's focused on Keima and Tenri's past and present relationship. LA does have to say that Kaori Nazuka who voiced both Tenri & Diana does a great job in voicing them. In all this -hen was a refreshing, interesting and comical take on remembering your childhood friend with that supernatural TWGOK flavour.....and <LA squees>.....THERE's GOING TO BE A SEASON 3!!!..CONFIRMED!!!!!!...can't wai- <LA faints> | Season 1 - 9.9/10 Season 2 - 11/10 Tenri-hen - 9.9/10 | ||
| Fate Zero | DONE | *Note to users - Fate Zero is a prequel to Fate/stay night Note to self- After Fate Zero is over, rewatch Fate/stay night THEN go back and REWATCH THIS Season 1 - HOLY SHADOWS!!!!..Fate stay/night was nothing compared to this....and it's only about half way through....the fights are freakin' ridiculously awesome, the storyline plot is even more awesome, the only turnoff...is one word.....Caster....he scares the **it outta me....just flat out die Caster..your a creepy nightmare fueled nuisance. The comedy is toned down nonetheless the action is what pulls this anime off....very good right now and intense...it's a freakin' war!!!!!!!!!! and again..Caster just die...please!!!, 0.0 my god....GRRRR freakin' cliffhangar!!!, in all this season was intense to the core.....Season 2 here I come and the death of Caster hopefully!!!!. Season 2- <LA starts to weep> *sniff*...wow..this storyline's plot just keeps getting sadder and sadder, but wow completely unexpected twists as well and its now ramped up the intensity in it's storyline, when I thought the nightmare fuel was over, well it comes crashing back....this season...well..it's a HOLY CRAP with a TON of nightmare fuel and the plot is just getting cruel *sniff*...................HOLY CRAP.....in ONE episode...it it it completely changed EVERYTHING. The action scaled up to an eleven and the plot also scaled up to an eleven. This may be the "Holy Grail" of all animes...and the ending...my God....just blown away and STILL some twists show up EVEN during the ENDING...Man..it's THE HOLY GRAIL OF ALL ANIME HERE...a MUST WATCH. Special Onegai Einzbern Consultation Room - These "specials" just tell about the Holy Grail war with surprisingly funny ways, either way Iri talks about how the Holy Grail war functions as if it was a lecture...a funny one at that..plus at some point...CHIBI IRI!!!. Now since the next 3 specials...more detail still comedic but the finale was pretty heartwarming, FOR A SPECIAL...comedic yes, heartwarming finale as well...not to mention it does tie up to "Zecchan" as well as Iri. These three specials...was unique in regards to specials. Informative, comedic and heartwarming specials...Fate..you again surprise LA again. Fate Prototype OVA - Well this "OVA" if you call it that..more like a teaser trailer was..well weirdly actiony cool, different storyline from Zero and Fate/stay however nearly the same concept..I'm intrigued... | Season 1 - 12/10 Season 2- 15/10 Overall - 36/10 | ||
| Gosick | DONE | Holy crap...what an anime...an anime centering on mysteries on a country. The mysteries are VERY deep and very intense, plus cool to boot. But it doesn't end there, the character development is intense, some comedy is in there and the plot itself is even more intense. At first the mysteries were just intriguing but then the mysteries in itself created a bigger mystery intertwining nearly EVERYTHING. There are no filler episodes so you can guess this is a deep and intense anime. In all, the plot, the mysteries....all a thumbs up. A VERY good anime for mystery-anime-esque fans and also a noteworthy tearjearkin' ending...god I need a tissue.. | 9.99/10 | ||
| Tsukihime | DONE | It was kinda of a slow starting anime compared to Fate stay night...though it only had 12 episodes..it was still slow, about in the 6th episode was when it started getting fast-paced and more fights I suppose. The storyline was a bit cruel and also had some twists...but also some unanswered questions sometimes...hmmm..choose one route but not the other huh?..anyways the characters were a bit bland, the only 2 who stood out was Arcueid and the main character Shiki..the others were somewhat dimming the limelight..ALOT (Well except Akiha and Ciel). The ending was soo sad though....SCREW YOU ******?!?!?. Anyways in all...not a bad anime..though the slow start was a bit of turndown. | 8.7/10 | ||
| Yu-Gi-Oh:The Abridged Series | Ep. 55/55~ | Another funny anime-ish-ish-ish abridged series??. Anyways the jokes for the anime is hilarious and the jokes just fire one after the other and I actually agree with some of the things LittleKuriboh says about the anime (the Real One) as well all in all funny abridged series...hehe...Nyeh!! | 8.7/10 | ||
| Rio -Rainbow Gate- | DONE | An anime on Gambling..yes you heard it users..GAMBLING...this anime is based on HEAVILY on gambling and TONS FANSERVICE mainly on the main character much to her expense. The storyline is simple, Rio the main character goes into gambling fights to protect of win something called "Gate Cards". ALL the episodes has this. The fights?...NEARLY ALL FANSERVICE...oh yeah trust me. To summarize Rio goes into gambling fights to find all 13 gate cards, with TON fanservice in nearly all episodes. Some parts were a bit cheesy but not as cheesy as ONE ANIME SERIES THAT HAD ME BORED OUT OF MY MIND BECAUSE OF THE STUPID ENGLISH VA's *cough* Gun-Baka-Parade March *cough* I went off track....What I mean is...alright anime, the "Game of the Day" schema and a b**chy villain and I said this already but TONS OF FANSERVICE. The ending....WHAT THE F-......Supernatural much?....and yes i'm serious once again...Gambling with supernatural?...huh?..in all not a bad anime, kinda enjoyable...hmph hmph.. Special Episode - Ahhhhh.....fanservice AGAIN and and confusing backlassed plots...though 2 are connected..the one...all I'm gonna say is .......HUH!?!?!?. Weirdly for this episode...RIO IS NOT THE MAIN PLOT.....the 2 kids and Mint's..TEDDY BEAR seems to be......and it also turned into a Sentai-esque at some stage...riiiiiiiiiight. Weird special episode is all I'm gonna say. | 8.2/10 | ||
| Toradora! | DONE | Well well well....a VERY interesting anime...romantic comedy at that turning into a full-blown drama...and no not like *cough* School Days *cough* that way of drama. The storyline was pretty full on, confessions, CATFIGHTS and in denial etc.. the gist for drama. The comedy for this anime was good as well. The characters are somewhat memorable due to their effect on the storyline. But wow...the drama itself rocked me, the situations the two characters were put in just blowed me away. THIS ANIME IS BY FAR BETTER DRAMA THAN ******** SCHOOL DAYS...at least this anime had actual development in its plot and tried to solve it with a discrete manner instead of curving downward to a spiral of BAKA despair.....Ahhh I shouldn't compare but seriously School Days to this....Toradora is BY FAR BETTER ROMANTIC COMEDY/DRAMA. Ok where was I...ahhh right, the storyline was extremely moving at most, especially the characters' reaction..I'd have to give props to Minorin's voice actor....Phaw...best emotional backlash EVA in anime. Now the ending..it was good due to well spoilers....gomen...however it left me thinking was all..in all a VERY good Romantic Comedy/Drama...thumbs up! :D | 10/10 | ||
| Infinite Stratos | DONE | Ohhhh another harem...with one cool twist....MECHA SUITS. The storyline is kinda straight forward leading up to the harem girls appearing and then fighting. The fighting are actually pretty impressive..well duh since it's a mecha anime correct?..but the kicker for what this makes this anime mixing different flavours is it's graphics, they have crisp graphics of it's mecha's and the FIGHTS SCENES ARE EVEN BETTER...and storyline due to it being interesting thus intriguing to me though it's a harem as well. The characters...hehe...well 3 TSUNDERE's..so LA will be torpedo-nosebleeding ALOT, on speaking of which there were 2 fanservice episodes...which LA going for a blood transfusion for it hehe XD. Anyways this anime had different elements of anime...mecha, harem and fighting..a good combo, a good storyline and impressive fighting scenes and the harem scenes are really funny...... OVA - Ohhh lets see the premise of this episode?...ALL HAREM...funny one at that but the second half was pretty interesting at it went with Houki and Ichika...well very intriguing things occurred...but for the main guy to BE OBLIVIOUS TO LOVE...well you can see where this episode was going...in all a good OVA...I suppose... | 8.9/10 | ||
| The -Monogatari Series | DONE | Bakemonogatari - Well this anime...was something different...seriously..but good seriously. The storyline was split to 5 short stories in which some get intertwined. It had a supernatural mystery feel to it which was pretty good, other than that, the episodes had strange visual cues and instant art shifts that keep my eyes on the screen due to how fast these art shifts and visual cues pops up...and oohh I MEAN ALOT shows up. The storyline itself was pretty good, LA liked the final story the best, though it was more of people talking than fighting (though there were some fighting scenes), the blend of the visual cues and the storyline was like as if I was seeing a fast-pacing visual novel that was trying to mindf**k me at the same time XD. In all with all the storyline, character and it's props (the visual cues)..it was a pretty good anime that had my eyes glued to the screen for most of the time. Nisemonogatari - A good season...some unexpected visits (seriously), and again the visual cues were awesome and some of the mindf**k scenes were actually pretty graphically cool. The storyline this time is only 2 long stories...but it's what's going behind the scenes with the previously talked about unexpected visits made it an awesome season. although there were some disturbing scenes...some err....how do I say this... Stormfall:Incestuous?... LA:Yes Stormfall that's the word....some of the scenes were...well...that >_>. The villains in this season was pretty weird, but one who could kick your butt 500 times over....err...don't mess with her. This season also had less of Hitagi Senjougahara...<LA weeps>...but the storyline overall was pretty good anyways. The ending?...EPIC FIGHTING.....I wonder what the next Monogatari will be like?...or to be more precise...what will happen?. Nekomonogatari Kuro - Well nya...a preqwuel to Bakemonogatari meow???...about Hanekawa Tsubasa nya. This little preqwuel was wery interesting as to how the purrevious time Hanekawa meowas possessed by the meddlesome neko during that Golden Week. The mindfw**kery from the purrevious installments are still there and all the more crwazy imagery. But what this preqwuel gives us is a wromance story.....ahhh errr...let LA purrephrase that...a sad complicated wromance stwory and a stwory of wealisation onto wove and being you nya..which towards the ending was WERY moving for a 4-nya episode installment. In all, with SHAFT's artful mindfw**kery imagery as well as the very moving wromance story as well some dewcent action AS WELL AS cameos from Hitagi Senjogahara and wreturning characters from Nisemonogatari (The Fire Sisters) was wery awesome in LA eyes (however the incest subtext arose during the first episode or so.....meow...it showed up in Nisemonogatari so LA will let that pwass)..ohhhhhh~!!! LA can't wait for Nekomonogatari Shiro!! Nyaaaaa~!!! | Bakemonogatari - 9/10 Nisemonogatari - 9.8/10 Nekomonogatari Kuro - 9.9/10 | ||
| Valkyria Chronicles | DONE | Wow..I've never seen a military anime like this...with the added FANTASY ELEMENT. The anime itself is VERY good with a bit of a slow start (but not that slow), anyways the military parts of the anime is all out strategy and counterattacks, the works.....the fantasy parts..HOLY CRAP....very nice and very good element to the story. The storyline is very good as it balances both fighting and relationships quite well...heck even the villains got THEIR OWN EPISODE. On speaking of which....the villain is bats**t insane.....I didn't expect it from a noble...but ehhh....it's what you get. But with a bats**t insane nobleman....means one hell of fight during the finale....HOLY CRAP...talk about mixing fantasy with military rule. The relationship is very good....some angst but gets resolved quickly. In all...this anime will be the benchmark for military animes now...VERY good anime. | 9.8/10 | ||
| To Aru Majutsu no Index | DONE | Season 1 - Now this is some very good anime right here...here's the funny part..it's part harem, part fighting..part comedy!!!...haven't seen this combination IN A LONG TIME. The comedy is great with the jokes coming every now and then, the fights are JUST AMAZING..magic fist fights you say, and the harem?....there's 2 tsundere's....yeah. Anyways the storyline was VERY good making it...hmm how do I say this....sorta like magic/religion vs. science making it sorta the premise about the entire anime, having EVERY episode have a balance of harem/comedy and some MAJOR fighting making every episode INTENSE and funny all at the same time...there was NEVER A DULL MOMENT IN THIS ANIME...thus is...potentially a VERY good anime to get you wrapped up in...Season 2?..HECK YES!!! Season 2 - o.o WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW...this season took season 1 off it's rocker and made it UP AN ELEVEN!?!??!. The storylines, the FIGHTS, the character developments, the SCHEMES...EVERYTHING WAS JUST BLOODY BRILLIANT. Ok let's start with storyline...each storyline just kept getting better and better and the chaos got crazier and crazier, not only that but remember in the first season about science vs. religion?..well up that TO AN ELEVEN AS WELL...HOLY S**T. Now onto the fights...I would put the fighting in this anime on PAR TO FAIRY TAIL..FAIRY TAIL!??!?!?!..yes I said it..FAIRY TAIL...it's like it's one on one...but on a CITY WIDE BATTLE, don't even get me started on the penultimate arc fight...HOLY S**T. Now onto the character developments...going to say 5 words... "MINOR CHARACTERS EVEN GET SOME"...as well as the protagonist of course. The schemes...holy crap I don't know how they did it, but they somehow connected the FIRST SEASON TO THE SECOND SEASON ALL THE WHILE THE SUB-ARCS within this season somewhat connects in a character-wise way. The villains...wow...once again on par with Fairy Tail's villains...and some are bats**t insane. The finale?...well the finale was so and so...the penultimate part however...HOLY S**T SOMETHING HUGE WENT DOWN..which caused ripples of awesomeness all the same.... Another words...this anime is like Fairy Tail meets Angels & Demons...and once again well I HAVE TO GIVE PROPS TO THIS ANIME FOR GIVING SUCH AWESOME FIGHTS.....SEASON 3, SEASON 3!!!!!!!!! OVA To aru Majustu no Index-tan: What can I say?..some of the funniest skits I've seen. Let's see...outtakes...imaginative speculations..and a pint sized Index??... <LA tilts head to a 90 degree angle>...yeah I'm saying it right...a PINT SIZE INDEX....AHHHH KAWAIII....I'm getting offtrack again...hmph hmph..these 2 OVA's are a bunch of funny skits both DURING the anime and some outtakes OFFSTAGE-ish. The funniest parts are DURING the anime skits.....it's even goes to BREAKING THE FOURTH WALL...mainly talking about the voice actors etc...funniest stuff I've seen in an OVA. But best to watch about 20+ episodes before watching both OVA episodes as it is "kind of" spoilers...(well duh). | Season 1- 12/10 Season 2 - 14/10 Overall - 27/10 | ||
| To Aru Kagaku no Railgun S | Ep. 6/24 | Season 1 - Picking up where Touma left off, Misaka got her own story..and AN IMPRESSIVE ONE AT THAT. The storyline was very good covering a very interesting story along with like 2 or 3 fanservice episodes...but somehow this series' episodes were NEARLY connected...which is a big ups, also it had some cameos in To Aru Majutsu no Index (Well duh...they are in the same universe). But the fighting....MY GOD...IT'S THE SAME AS TO ARU MAJUTSU NO INDEX....crazy fighting and the villains...well let's just say one of them is crazy and the other one is bats**t insane...and the fight against "bats**t insane one" was AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOMMMMMME. The comedy was all well in good in which most were delivered by Kuroko. The finale?..HOLY S**T....awesome, action filled finale. Season 2! Season 2!! OVA - A Good OVA...mystery, a bit of fanservice and bit of mind screw (only a bit)...it was funny at the most, and the final scenes were funny. In all not a bad mystery OVA...with a funny twist. Specials: Ohhh JC Staff...you do the best specials...best yet they have the same bizzare and crazy sketches as Index specials...hehe...the 3rd special especially is more fanservicey...yet crazy all due to...Kuroko. All in all great Railgun specials. S - (Pre-review): Determination... | 25/10 S - ??/10 | ||
| Baby, Please Kill Me! | DONE | Well this anime...is more like a bunch of skits in each episode...very funny some of them. It has a slapstick comedy feel to it in which Yasuna (The Hyperactive Instigator) is always ALWAYS on the short straw to Sonya (AN ASSASSIN). The comedy is good I'll tell you that..and well that's what the anime is all about, an anime in which Sonya goes into Yasuna's antics in which it leads to Yasuna getting beaten up by Sonya...especially in Episode 8. In all a good slapstick comedy. Those who like solely comedy should watch this. | 7.9/10 | ||
| Kowarekake no Orgel | DONE | Well, this anime/OVA is a cop out to Chobits...a guy finds a robot-humanoid in the trash and somehow wakes up..ringing any bells?...now the story is only 30 minutes but somehow puts alot of character developments towards this. However one redeeming factor is that it has a sad story..yeah that's about it. | 5/10 | ||
| Ore No Imouto Ga Konna Ni Kawaii Wake Ga Nai. | Ep. 7/13 | Season 1 - Well this anime has well....something unique...well because it's anime about anime otaku's.....ohhh yeah. But don't let this fool you as it turns out to turn into some serious drama. There are ALOT of shout outs as well as well...a bit of fanservice. This anime also borders on "Incestuous" terms...only a bit...which was a bit of a cringe factor. The storyline is ok...I suppose...but sometimes this anime kinda reached me in real life... (LA is insane right now remember?)...so yeah kinda made it a tearjerker in LA eyes sometimes. Hmmph hmmpph...finale?...was ok...but now for some OVA routes!!! OVA route - Hmmmm...ok so these 4 OVA episodes...3 of which centers around Kuroneko, the last one Kirino. All of Kuroneko's episodes were interesting...as we got to see her deredere side more <LA squees> hmph hmph...anyways the last episode was a bit of tearjerker..only a bit...other than that more game/anime talk which was all in good in terms of funny verbal fights.....hehe... Season 2 - (Pre-review): D-d-d-d-d-d-d-da-.........DATEO!!!!!!!! | "Good End" route - 8.9/10 OVA route - 8.9/10 Season 2 - | ||
| Hidan no Aria | DONE | Season 1 - HOLY S**T...this anime...just wow...words cannot explain this anime..ohh wait it can! :P. Ok it's a mystery gun-totting anime, with a TSUNDERE, along with the main guy's harem. Trust me, the storyline is absolutely EXPLOSIVE at times, the twists, the fighting, the fanservice, the FREAKIN' villains being bats**t insane. Phaw all that in 12 EPISODES. This anime delivered well not to mention, in which I already mentioned one of the 5 tsundere wonders delivered VERY WELL, not mention that the rest of the cast are ALL BADASSES. Another words...this anime was absolutely amazing. If there's a Season 2 , I WILL WATCH IT...Season 2!, Season 2! OVA - hehe...what would expect from an OVA?...FANSERVICE. But other than that well a mystery appears and towards the end it kinda got creepy....then confusing. Another words...well I don't know, this OVA was just confusing with a hint of fanservice...well ALOT of fanservice to be exact. | 25/10 | ||
| Ben-To | DONE | This anime has three things, rule of awesome, rule of funny and food. Yep..you heard right. This anime is a special blend of fighting, turf wars within SUPERMARKETS, even "bosses" within certain pacts to get........food. Not to mention the food in this anime looks delicious as it is, the fighting in itself is ballistically awesome. The storyline is pretty cool given the fact in spanned only 2 arcs, but man was it cool, with the strategy, the background and of course the fighting which LA had noted down earlier. I know it sounds weird having an anime centred on fighting in supermarkets get food (Bento), but in hindsight, IT'S AWESOME. Another words, a cool anime, with a food twist. "BENTO!" | 9/10 | ||
| Black★Rock Shooter | DONE | OVA - Well LA...you sure went into this OVA blind, LA had no idea what was going on. It had a bit of 2 situational simultaneous storylines which kept on jumping back and forth, it may have been a bit confusing but all the more I wanted to know. One of the storylines was smooth until it went downhill for a bit. As for the other one...ALL OUT ACTION, the fights were crazy. In a ways, this OVA was confusing however it is to be expect since LA doesn't know much about this anime. The music was cool, but the storylines were actually enjoyable at most, with the add suspense. Ohh I forgot, the graphics for this anime was amazing, surreal at times, but at times, had attention to detail. A good confusing OVA!!! TV series - Wow.....just wow...compared to the OVA, that was just the tip of the iceberg. Not only did this anime get LA in both in terms of fighting, graphics, but ESPECIALLY ON DRAMA, YES EVEN DRAMA. Things started so quickly and soo many things happened within an 8 episode timeframe. Just wow, the fighting scenes are just brilliance especially in the graphical detail and the fighting in itself is just amazing to watch. In terms of drama, well let's just say LA was emotionally invested in ALL THE CHARACTERS. In terms of storyline, it was confusing at first, but it cleared it up soon after, though there were some mindf**k scenes in there, but LA always had LA's eyes on the screen every minute of this anime (meaning no boring parts in this anime...ALL OUT INTENSITY UP TO AN ELEVEN, starting from the FIRST EPISODE ONWARDS), always wondering what was going to happen next. Also the music in this anime just...just divine. LA was very impressed with this anime in terms of well...nearly EVERYTHING. This anime deserves nearly the same praise as Fate/Zero!!!! | OVA - 8.9/10 TV series - 30/10 | ||
| Ao no Exorcist | DONE | This was a good anime, though LA did get some Fairy Tail and D.Gray Man vibes. This anime is ermmm...how does LA suppose to say this?..."an anime with proper content, but lacked in it's execution" ESPECIALLY THE ENDING. The storyline is awesome for the first half, however near the ending, it went waaay to fast paced and sometimes it pulled stuff straight out of their ass (albeit it only happened once). LA praises it's storyline for the first half, but it's what the ending that lacked the execution. Now onto the others, the comedy was extremely funny at times, not to mention that some of the fight scenes were pretty cool. The music (OP only) was VERY catchy, the rest...no idea, as LA was more storyline-driven for this anime. In all this anime is awesome anime, however the ending was what tipped me off LA a bit... | 9.1/10 | ||
| Azumanga Daioh | DONE | This anime......is quite something....in the weirdest way possible. It's a slice of life....with comedy....tis about it...antics occur, yadda yadda. The characters development doesn't change WHATSOEVER, moreso the plot is MINIMAL. As for the comedy, it has it's moments but sometimes those moments GOES ON FOR 3 MINUTES STRAIGHT, even have a sense of "dead air" during the scenes, that instead of turning into a gag, they turn it into an overly long one which makes LA = boring. This anime is a classic from what I've heard, but LA just doesn't get what all the hype was about this anime...all it is is an anime about several schoolgirls daily life...with some weird comedy. Ehhh... | 6/10 | ||
| Angel Beats! | DONE | Well well well, another unique anime, this anime had a fast-but-well-upbeat start, with plenty of action, badassery and a bit of mystery. The characters do get development but it's only a little, though with that character development it leads to LA weeping a bit....not telling why but eh. Anyways the storyline plot is very funny, not to mention suspenseful and action filled. The ending?....well <LA starts to weep>...it's it's.....ohh god it's too painful to say.....LA needs tissues!??!?!?!?!?....though it kinda went kinda abruptly fast and some of the minor characters weren't called upon for some character development, other than that....well yeah, a painful (In LA's eyes) sad ending..... Special: Ohhh the special episode was absolutely crazy, not to mention funny as they added a "tension meter" throughout most of the episode.....hehe....this special's ending was extremely funny as well. Not a bad special, though it was chaotically funny. | 9/10 | ||
| Ichigo 100% | DONE | This anime is really something…COMPLETE FANSERVICE is what this anime is…geez, I’ve never seen so much fanservice in every episode….<LA sees Rio –Rainbow Gate-> ohh f**k you…ok but seriously, this anime blows the fanservice ratio..its practically girls flaunting their assets at you and the gratuitous amounts of *anty shots is just insane. The storyline for this anime is just beyond idiocrisy…firstly…there is at least a plot…a thin one…not only that but it’s all harem for the first season…along with the fanservice…the second season?...ALL FANSERVICE…nothing more…no plot, no twists…just blatant fanservice with no overarching storyline plot. The storyline gets worse…there are some episodes which are somewhat linked…but it’s only one or two episodes…all the other are just the main guy going open arms to all the girls. The harem side….is just a gratuitous as the fanservice..actually they go hand in hand it’s actually scaring LA out of the fanservice. This anime is just fanservice-ladden…that’s it…Ichigo 100% is right.. Ecchi-go 100% is a better way of saying the premise of this entire anime. LA is actually bored of fanservice from this anime….0.0…..kowaii….. In all, Ichigo 100% is for those classic romance watchers…nothing more…..harem with tons of fanservice is all your gonna get…geez LA needs a car washer to wash the indecent amount of fanservice LA just saw. | Overall - 5/10 | ||
| Shukufuku no Campanella | DONE | Excuse me.....<LA headdesks>....and now... <LA nosebleeds>... Ok this anime is VERY VERY lighthearted and TONS of fanservice. The storyline as before is VERY lighthearted, there are some small twists and is somewhat predictable, there's ALOT of fanservice nearly every 5 minutes. The storyline will change from a fanservicey to a drama, then goes back to fanservicey again, the fanservice and moe elements DOMINATES this anime, the drama only takes a few episodes (Therefore quickly going over their angst etc.) The action in this anime is minimal, however it has an excuse...IT'S LIGHTHEARTED..so it makes sense. The character development, well there a bit of it...but well it's only there for some of the main characters...well there is a bit of drama no?. In all, this anime is very fanservicey and moe, the storyline is a bit here and there with it's drama, action and slice of life and fanservice however the lightheartness is there for the entire time....trust me. OVA - Well............one word....FANSERVICE....nothing more. Specials - Ummmm...borderline INTENSE FANSERVICE...I sense a pattern here.... | 6/10 | ||
| CANAAN | DONE | Well TYPE-MOON did it again…..this anime was ALL out action, conspiracy theories as well as BIO-TERRORISM…wow.. The character development as well as plot was intense and well this plot had some gruesome scenes, as well as a few mindscrewed ones….as well as some “What are you doing?!?!?” scenes, well in terms of everything, it’s a pretty intense anime, with the storyline to boot. The anime was already hyped up during the first episode and CONITUED THE HYPE throughout, not to mention the villains in this anime are bloody bats**t insane. In all another great performance by TYPE-MOON type animes….very good, and very intense. The ending however was a bit anti-climatic...and a bit confusing...hmm either way TYPE-MOON's storyline again was amazing to a "bio-terroism" path instead of the supernatural TYPE-MOON usual does. | 8.8/10 | ||
| Saki | DONE | Well hehe...this was an anime LA was sucked into....from a game LA doesn't even know!...Mahjong. Yep. MAHJONG. LA hasn't seen an anime about MAHJONG being so intense. Once LA started knowing the rules of mahjong well this anime pretty much got me. The character development in this anime is pretty good as well as the fact that ALOT of the minor characters get them too (as well as backstories). The storyline was a bit of a tournament style with a bit of mix and mash backstories. LA REALLY liked the mahjong matches themselves as well as LA just fainting sometimes at how LUCKY some of the characters are. There is a bit of fanservice in this anime as well as a few yuri undertones from MULTIPLE girls. This anime is really for those who has learnt or wants to learn more about mahjong.....a very good anime (if you know mahjong). | 9/10 | ||
| Amagami SS series | DONE | + Season Haruka arc (1-4): Well this arc was what any romance anime is...though the protagonist does some weird stuff. Now onto the main girl for this arc............SHIZUKA ITO'S VOICE ACTOR WITH LENALEE LEE VOICE <LA faints>.....not to mention she's a total hottie...<LA torpedo nosebleeds>...hmph hmph...carrying on... though it was only 4 episodes this arc was pretty good, keeping the content mostly on the protagonist and Haruka. The romance was just a bit different, it still was romance just in a quirkier way. This arc also resonates with LA ALOT...though nah I'm not getting any further. Note:LA has once again fallen in love with Shizuka Ito's voice...ku ku ku Kaoru arc (5-8): Well this arc had some good romance between the protagonist and Kaoru. It did get some weird romance similar to Haruka's one, then it took an intense drama for a bit, then...well the romance came back..or more so the drama heightened it. This romance with the protagonist and Kaoru was a bit more interesting as it is a childhood friend that is the chosen girl, Kaoru voiced by Rina Sato...better known as voicing Misaka Mikoto from To Aru Majutsu no Index, did her voicing very well tsundere or not. The ending was a fitting great end to this romance...very good arc. Sae arc (9-12): Well this arc...was errr...a bit dull. Problems?...well for one, the storyline was at first a romantic comedy with....well fanservice, then it turned into a dull romance..and then the ending...GRAHHH!??!?! <LA headdesks>..what was up with the ending?. Not only that but the main girl's voice annoyed the hell out of LA...her weak, shrill and quiet voice to be precise. The romance was sub-par compared to Kaoru or Haruka's and the storyline in itself was just a bit weak....LA DID NOT ENJOY THIS ARC...the only good thing about this arc was the snarky narrator for this arc...(voiced by Joji Nakata..the guy who voiced KIREI KOTOMINE FROM FATE/ZERO) Ai arc (13 - 16): Well this arc was pretty classic in LA's opinion in terms of romance, though once again there was some weird crap that occurred however this time the protagonist wasn't the one who started it. The romance for this arc is as it said....classic...and a bit heartwarming in LA's opinion..there was a bit of drama to curve it higher that caused the heartwarming and the eventual romance to "blossom". The ending was also heartwarming and a bit fanservicey <LA slaps LA's cheeks>..hmph hmph anyways, this arc was just heartwarming not to mention Yukana did a great job on voicing Ai. A good "classic romance" arc. Rihoko arc (17 - 20): Ok this arc...had....just a bit of romance...though some of the minor characters tried to move it along. The character development was also "just a bit", the plot more or less followed the Tea Club's antics more than the sub-plot of the main protagonist with the main girl Rihoko...which in some ways is good but at times kinda pissed LA off...cos the romance was there and pretty good there just wasn't enough of it. The main girl herself "Rihoko" is kinda of the ditz of a character and just carefree as well a childhood friend of the main protagonist (so why didn't end up like Kaoru's arc..huh huh!?!??)...the voice actor also did a good job on voicing her (though she sounded like Kana Asumi sometimes...SOMETIMES) Tsukasa arc (21 - 24): Ahhh this arc is just soo different...like really, LA won't spoil. Anyways the storyline for this arc just awesome, the romance was upscaled (as well as no weird crap going on). It was clear cut. The drama was just AS INTENSE AS KAORU's arc's drama...and hehe once again LA had become emotionally invested in Tsukasa as well as LA resonating the romance in this arc as well. The ending was also pretty emotionally great, one of the better arc LA has seen in Amagami SS Risa Kamizaki Special Episode: Well this one episode ALONE gave out some VERY important info on the main protagonist's past...the romance was slightly minimum, but it still had it. This episode just had a little something...with the touch of hmph hmph..."light yandere" love. Miya Tachibana Special Episode: Well the main protagonist's sister now takes an episode for her own....and she uses it to spy on her brother.....yeah. Minimal romance though it's interesting getting the scope through Miya. Hmmm a funny yet somewhat interesting episode. + Season Overall: This entire anime in itself is like a romance story told 6 times..with 6 different girls. The best thing about this anime is the "variety" of romance foretold.....in sometimes the weirdest way possible...and sometimes in some of the most emotional way possible (yes an anime doing both at the same time!). The comedy is here and there, the storyline well you've seen it as above...so yeah 6 mini-stories. This anime is seriously for those harem fans...wanting a different twists to the harem genre (as this anime has a reset button leading to the 6 romance mini-stories). Now onto the + plus Season (yes there is another season!!) + OVA - Hehe...funny romance skits with the main protagonist with 6 girls. Somewhat good romance OVA. + plus Season Tsukasa arc (1-2): Now where the Tsukasa arc left off...once again this arc had some drama...a bit of comedy and hehe...Tsukasa's Tsundereness was in full-force. Once again what this arc had mostly the drama and the romance...which in itself for a romance anime...is great. Though this only had 2 episodes...it showed it very well...from it's downfalls to it's highs. In all..another great arc from Tsukasa!!!!! Rihoko arc (3-4): FINALLY FINALLY FINALLY, this arc did what it's predecessor season arc didn't...a RESOLVED ROMANCE. Ok now from this arc, the culmination of the "hesitation" between childhood friends finally resolved itself which made LA pleased. In terms of storyline though it was light hearted compared to Tsukasa's, there was one tipping point which caused the romance to blossom...another words...romance deus ex machina yay!. In all this arc was great due to the resolution to the hesitating childhood friend romance...once again..YAY! Ai arc (5-6): Ohhhhhhhhh~!!! this arc is just too cute!!!!!..it really is!. Ok the romance from the previous arc blossoming as well as going through some external factors causing the main character and Ai to be apart was a bit of a tearjerker on Ai's end, but their romance as a whole is just too cute!!!!. Not much of a twist or drama (the only drama being Ai and the character being apart) but this arc's main focus was the romance while apart and not apart was in itself was great..<LA sheds a tear>...and the ending, all the more of a cuteness heartwarming moment... Kaoru arc (7-8): Continuing on from Kaoru's arc and well it's gone romantic comedy..which in itself was funny but the romance was sprinkled here and there in this arc...the romance?...ohhh silly the pinnacle of the romance showed up during the end and that as well as played down very well..almost heartwarming..no..it was heartwarming. There was some drama but downplayed a little from the previous Kaoru arc, however their blossoming of their relationship even further from this drama was in itself heartwarming therefore great... Sae arc (9-10): Sorry Sae..LA just didn't see it...LA saw this arc's romance nothing but puppy love (or even less than that), no proper romance development plot towards the couple as LA could see. The storyline was childish through the romance...there was a bit of drama but in all...not towards the romance itself. Sorry for nitpicking but this time Sae's voice was not the reason why this arc did so poorly...it was the romance. In all...it did a better than the previous arc..just by a bit..but in all..this arc wasn't to LA's tastes. Haruka arc (11-12): Wow..perfect love story right here...playful banter love to the quest and confusions of true love..ohh god LA is talking like a romanticist...<LA looks above at the Amagami review>...riiiiiight..continuing on...Shizuka Ito's voice was divine as always and the romance for this plot as LA put it before.."TRUE ROMANCE STORY", there was plenty of drama fueling this arc and did LA say this arc is a true love story?...yes...in all this arc was just perfect in terms of romance..ohhhh so much... Miya Tachibana Special Episode - Wow...just wow....full blown fanservice episode and none too pervy at that...there were plenty of laughs...for a fanservice episode and it was mainly an all-girls episode where all the girls from the series goes to the HOT SPRINGS...and man was it fanservicey...but it kept it's limits to it. So another words...<LA torpedo nosebleeds>....that's all LA has to say..... + plus OVA - These OVA's happened throughout the main female leads arcs within this season which was a plus (get the pun?)...as well as some fanservice as well as some decent romance and a bit on the perceptive of the girls instead of the main protagonist....another words...good OVA's!!!. | + Season Haruka arc - 10/10 Kaoru arc - 10/10 Sae arc - 6/10 Ai arc - 8.9/10 Rihoko arc: 9/10 Tsukasa arc: 10.5/10 Specials:8/10 + Season Overall : 9.5/10 + plus Season Tsukasa arc - 10/10 Rihoko arc - 9.5/10 Ai arc - 9.8/10 Kaoru arc - 10/10 Sae arc - 6.5/10 Haruka arc - 12/10 + plus Season Overall - 9.99/10 Overall - 9.7/10 | ||
| Mayoi Neko Overrun | DONE | This anime was actually very unique...in which LA had found out. All 12 episodes had different directors direct one episode each. With that the storyline itself was wacky as hell. From drama to mecha to an episode with JENGA!?!?. LA doesn't know..LA had mixed feelings about this anime due to this. However the storyline though wacky tried to keep the storyline under wraps at times...and sometimes well yeah veer offtrack. Anyways there was a few character developments which was good as well as the comedy being very good. In all well...this was a unique anime. Special Commentary Episode - A COMMENTARY EPISODE about the three main girls talking about clips within this same anime. Extremely funny dialogue not to mention all the shout outs (In-Universe duh..). Specials - Lore ring it please... <Lore rings the fanservice bell>...hmph hmph.. <LA wacks Lore in the head>...BAKA!!...that is Stormfall's job. Anyways..this array of specials has...you guessed it...fanservice...with some weird order of...well weirdness...seriously some of the mini skits were kinda weird. | 8/10 | ||
| Tiger & Bunny | DONE | Ok ok ok...a SUPERHERO anime...and nice deconstruction of it. Though the first 5 episodes of this anime had some MAJOR superhero cliches, it later became intriguing in a ways....and a huge amount of angst...SOOO much angst. Then later well it just went darker and edgier. However the ending was well.....anti-climatic....VERY anti-climactic. Now onto the other tidbits....the graphics were ok, but LA had seen MUCH better graphics, the plot twists at first was well predictable, then later on the twists themselves were actually pretty good....but still somewhat predictable. The characters were a bit bland what with most of the stock characters you would see in a superhero cartoon... (the "elemental" kind of superheroes). In all this anime is exactly as how much gratuitous amounts of advertising is...flashy but lacks in plot depths...some of the time. If you go for superheroes and advertising this is the anime for you..if not...pick another shounen. | 7/10 | ||
| Mirai Nikki | DONE | LA's first real horror anime...and weLl..welL..<LA suddenly gains red irises and makes an evil smirk>...The storyline was freaking intense, from the episode one! KILL!...heard of the term Deus Ex Machina??...well this anime have f**king tons of it...with b**ching proof HAHAHAHAHA!!!. Backstories..ohh LA kills them LA means...the characters backstories in this anime is very much touched upon...ALOT... HAHAHAHAHA!!. There is comedy is anime..ohh there is...but the intensity of the plot is just insane that is was merely a plus of the comedy being there and whats more is that there are no filler/boring episodes whatsoever. The music is this anime is just to DIE for...especially the OP's. In all an anime with a structured/Deus Ex Machina plot (In short the unpredictability of this anime is just outRAGEous!!), the characters are very defined ESPECIALLY the Goddess of Yandere, Gasai Yuno, awesome music. Insanity LA is very pleased with | 32/10 | ||
| Baccano! | DONE | <LA is in a black suit with a fedora and says the following in a rough Brooklyn accent> So I saw this one anime right?...rough and tough right?. Badasses left and right, the storyline crazy as hell, the characters were all solid and even the voice casting, nothing LA's 1930's eyes saw. Now this anime...though the gangsters in Chicago told me to keep this secret I'll spill...it's very actiony, split section storyline weaving a couple stories together which you'll get the full story later and gore...lots of it, LA isn't lying...very gorey. Now the music in this anime has a rough Americanized 30's tone to it, making it very fluid to it's storyline in general. Ahh I forgot...the plot twists..well you'll be seeing them almost everywhere due to the nature of the storyline format. In all, this rough tough, badassery of an anime is one very interesting anime, with it's characters, storyline, music and even it's character development being utterly badassery great. Now LA must leave......see you soon lad/missy!</Brooklyn accent> | 9.9/10 | ||
| MM! | DONE | Errrr...how can LA put this.....fanservice...the kind you weren't expecting...as well as the fanservice anyways. The characters are very standard-ish with a side of crazy, the storyline in itself is kinda weak (as it kinda had a "Status Quo is God" but everyone retains their memories..you'll see what LA means). This anime's one annoyance was that the "kind you weren't expecting fanservice" was awkwardly put in nearly every 3 minutes...some to an extreme degree. In all it's like a harem anime with some awkward fanservice, characters were stocked and the storyline was in itself...weird and awkward...most of the time. | 6/10 | ||
| Maria†Holic | DONE | Season 1 - OOOOOOhhhohhhoohhohooooo~!!, this anime is just great, from establishing the characters, to the comedy. This anime in itself is a comedic drama...emphasizing on the comedic so much. There is a storyline in which most of the events does affect the storyline or develop the characters (very comedically and at the same time greatly), there are some "just comedy" episodes but for some reason Maria†Holic makes this sometimes a plot point in which case makes it comedy GOLD. This being a Studio Shaft production (from the people who produced Bakemonogatari and Nisemonogatari), the mindf**kery visual cues are there and LA isn't phased by it. In all, a VERY funny anime with ALOT of yuri undertones...wait no...it IS yuri but with the comical sense like no other.....hehe... Mariya play the MEIDO GUITAR!!!! Alive - LA.used.Monotype.Corsiva.for.this.review.now.with.the.review.of.Maria.Holic.Alive.....This season was extremely funny, LA has to say...from the massive yuri tones in the anime to the storyline having plot references/points towards the previous season as well as this season, the overall butt monkeyness of the main protagonist and the "No Fourth Wall" was the main reasons why this season was funny. The storyline was...well unexpected...seriously...from this you can tell this season is another comedic drama with chock full of yuri perversions, in terms of comedy...it was "breaking the fourth wall" gold, in terms of drama..it was light but still had a bit of drama so it was good either way and yes the mindf**kery visual cues are still in this season. In all this season was greatly done...in terms of Maria Holic-ness...need LA say more?...ohh right...the one thing this series had the main protagonist do....<LA nosebleeds>...LA rests LA's case... | Season 1 - 9/10 Alive - 9.5/10 | ||
| Kami-sama no Memo-chou | DONE | Well another detective anime...modernized and well dabbling into the darker corners of society...no seriously, this anime goes from money laundering to mafia wars to DRUG OUTBREAKS. As you can plainly see, the drama for this anime is VERY intense and with drama comes character development and it does and the weirdest thing is that it does it to the character in question NOT THE MAIN CHARACTERS which in itself is rare. Now being an detective anime, well the mysteries behind the "darker corners of society" cases are pretty interesting not to mention some of the clues given...well sometimes gives you a curveball but still making sense. The ending...well it's one he' of a tearjerker not to mention an emotional end (actually most of the ending of most of the mysteries are these but the ending in particular). In all if your looking for a modernized detective anime with that "dramatic and emotional" touch then this anime is for you!.....well because It's the only NEET thing to do right? | 9.8/10 | ||
| Garzey's Wing | DONE | What can LA say about this dull f**k of an anime.....something called.....THIS ANIME MAKES NO F**KING SENSE!!!!!. Firstly, the voice acting for this anime is atrocious...from sounding dim-witted to sounding just plain annoying (This is DUB LA is talking about). Next is the storyline...HOLY F**K...has LA never seen an anime's storyline where in the FIRST MINUTE AND A HALF...NOTHING IS TOLD ABOUT IT, NO EXPLANATION AS TO HOW SOMETHING HAS OCCURED...THE FIRST! MINUTE AND A HALF!!!, he' LA got whiplash form this anime a couple of times from how it changes from event to another with NO EXPLANATION!!, from that point on there are action scenes but point blank...it's f**king dull...how does this anime make fighting scenes where dinosaurs fighting each other with opponents on their back...MAKE IT F**KING DULL...ohh they TRY to bring in exposition to an already confusing plotline...but again...they make it f**king dull and more so..make it THAT even MORE CONFUSING. The ending however...well they pull stuff straight out of their asses not to mention bring in multiple Deus ex Machina into it and well....IT MAKES NO F**KING SENSE!!!. This anime also had some scenes in which LA would say is useless to have...GOD LA just wasted 90 mintues of LA's life...F**K.....another words this s**tstack of an anime had an ok concept, yet the execution was it's falling point to no return. This anime is just f**king dull and makes no sense...just don't watch this dull crap....... | 0/10 | ||
| Ookami-san to Shichinin no Nakama-tachi | DONE | What do you get when you put Fairy Tale characters (Both Japanese and the classics), a snarky narrator who's voiced by Kuroko Shirai (Satomi Arai) and put in the fairy tales into the concepts of a storyline?...THIS ANIME!. Ok firstly the characters were VERY memorable the fact that they linked with their fairy tale counterparts (but flip their personalities and motives COMPLETELY). LA has to praise this anime on character development as for a 12 episode anime, it did alot, MOST of the main cast had some very developed backstories and character development. Now in terms of action, there was a lot, comedy?...ALOT most coming from the narrator!!. Now what else....hmmm..ohh right the ending...well anti-climatic HOWEVER once again character development comes in again and adds more to it!, another words...GREAT!. All those people who wants a decent laugh and some of your classic fairy tales characters do crazy things this is for ya! | 9.8/10 | ||
| Welcome to the NHK | DONE | <Hysteria LA>: IT'S A CONSPIRACY!!, A CONSPIRACY LA TELL YOU!!!!!! <LA pushes Hysteria LA out of the screen> LA: Hehe...sorry about that... This anime is like an ensemble darkhorse of the slice of life genre...meaning?...take your realistic situations with otaku terminology and darken the tone. This anime has mindf**kery, paranoia, romance..he' even SUICIDES. The storyline was at most an emotional rollercoaster, with MANY of it's plot points mattering ALOT to the overall story. The characters are diverse and in the way that makes you think about them in your own shoes..he' LA got chills when comparing LA to Yamazaki. The conspiracy <Hysteria:CONSPIRACY WHERE!!!> <LA:Urusai you wackjob> plot point is very much a central point and basically a driving force of this "slice of life" anime. If your looking for a slice of life anime with dark tones on REALISTIC matters...this anime has it...and will beat down the messages it portrays with a rubber bat.....<Hysteria LA: Yes...now Hysteria LA welcomes you to the N.H.K>... | 10/10 | ||
| Cowboy Bebop | DONE | This anime was quite somethin', well for one this anime had a GORGEOUS Musical score, from jazzy blues to techno guitar...ohh yeah this anime has it, for even the ballistic scenes. Now onto the storyline itself...there were several stand-alone epiosdes which equates to either awesomeness to just plain psychedelic, some of the "character development" episodes were impressive especially the ones towards Faye and ESPECIALLY the ones about Spike. The characters were all badass, from Spike's to Faye's femme fatale. Now LA is going to talk about Samurai Champloo for just a little bit...as this anime had something Samurai Champloo didn't have...something called..free-range storyline, why does LA say this?, because of Samurai Champloo's overall linearity compared to Cowboy Bebop's which has much more free range in it's storyline. Ok now with that out of the way...something that got LA a bit irritated about...the ending..ohh yes it was epic...but...some parts...left untold, which kinda irritated LA. In all, the musical score was the main greatness of this anime, character development and the characters themselves are awesome, but the ending slightly faulted. | 20/10 | ||
| Claymore | DONE | Ahh...<LA vomits>....sorry about that. This anime is just...gruesome...no disgusting. Ok ok ok...though it has HEAVY AMOUNT of gore and just plain gruesome fantasy body horror scenes...just you'll see what LA means. Ok now to the storyline, this storyline is pretty interesting, alot of backstories were covered not to mention this anime is purely action...HOLY CRAP, as well as there is no..LA means NO FILLERS...therefore this storyline is saying it is serious right from the get go. In terms of character development...well this correlates to the backstories...yeah it means there are ALOT of character development. Now LA has to say this again....man this anime is brutal...serious....forewarned this anime is NOT for the fainted hearted. Ok in all though this is a gruesome horror story, the backstories shown as well as the plenty of action makes up for it.....now LA needs to rinse this anime with a slice of life anime. | 11/10 | ||
| Seitokai no Ichizon | DONE | Synopsis in one sentence: A boy named Ken tries to form a harem within the Student Council...hilarity ensues Hehe.....this gag parody anime is really something...no seriously. This gag parody anime is really different as it's like parody of the harem genre WHILE HAVING ANIME "GAG" REFERENCES, yes this anime does that, from references to Death Note to Lucky Star to Suzumiya Haruhi to even Dragonball Z. Now here's the twist...this "gag parody" anime has one thing it solidifies at times..it has a storyline...yes it does has mainly through both backstories of the Ken towards the 4 girls as well as development with the 4 girls themselves. Normally gag animes are one cheap jokes about the genre they're wanting to do and forget about it, therefore it leads to no storyline just jokes. THIS...THIS anime however is the exception, as the backstories and character development are actual developed and doesn't suffer from "Status Quo is God" not to mention the last 2 episodes were VERY emotional. Another words for a gag parody anime...this anime did quite well in most fronts. Ohhh and LA forgot....in terms of comedy...from the harem genre...the characters jokes and subtle remarks towards Ken was some of the funniest things LA heard......hehe.... Recommended for: Any anime fan who wants a good laugh, harem fans as well as those veteran anime watchers Best aspect:: All the anime references as well as most of the jokes played on this anime Worst aspect: Minimal cast...but it didn't bug LA that much Favourite Character: Mafuyu...so moe...so otaku...just SO MOE!!!!... Note:Also for those who hasn't noticed yet..LA got this format of review from a certain reviewer for the sake of a parody of a review....hehe... | 10/10 | ||
| Omamori Himari | DONE | Well....Stormfall please ring that bell! <Stormfall rings the fanservice bell>...Yes that's right...harem fanservice galore. An anime right from a battle harem genre with a bit of a deconstruction, OK to start off, the storyline itself was given the whole battle harem genre then as the storyline went on...it went a bit dark, however the fanservice shots......the *anty shots and chests shots were loads abound...seriously. Now to characters...well the characters were all stereotypical harem stock characters...you know the tsundere, the short one, the childhood friend yeah..you get the gist, except almost half of them are supernatural creatures. Now the "darker elements" of the storyline were actually pretty good in terms of "bodyguard and master crush" specifics however sometimes fanservice comes in when it really shouldn't be. The ending......errrrr...how does LA say this...cool then dark then anti-climatic then ass pull then cheesy...yeah it's a pretty chaotic ending. <LA meows>... | 8/10 | ||
| Seitokai Yakuindomo | DONE | (Aria beats the drums and Suzu blows the whistle) Shino: Ousai Academy Student Council Rule #5! (Drumming and whistling loudens) Shino: There should be... no overfiddling! LA:Haaaaaa....eh..What with where?? <Opening theme plays> Ok ok ok..enough of the opening theme...<Shino: An opening like a v*****a>...<LA:>_>...I'll pretend you didn't say that..> Ok so Seitokai Yakuindomo review.......<*stare*>...THIS ANIME A RIOT!!!!. Seriously LA has to say an anime about se* jokes it has LESS fanservice and still plays on it's many se* jokes to some of it's minor ones jokes as well. This anime just thrives on se* jokes...from situations where se**al innuendos are played to just outright funniness in general. Now the characters for this anime are actually diverse.....well it is a gag anime. In terms of storyline...it's actually more like one hit to brick jokes that comes in often, though it has a minimal storyline the jokes are the things that makes this anime what it is...a plethora of se**al innuendos and plain awkward funny jokes. The ending ohh the ending...was awesome...full of fourth wall and some pretty funny stuff.....ahhhhhh.....this anime is just great <LA: But only watch it when your 18+ fellas!!! *LA winks and gives a thumbs up*> OVA's (6) - Ohhhh the OVA's...let the se**al innuendos continue!!!, not to mention these OVA's has some connections with it's other OVA's. Once again, more of the craziness and se* jokes pops up and just all the more funny. The ending was good as it was a get together with all the cast (even the minor cast) with even better jokes. In all....a spiral of crazy and plethora of se* jokes again and a funny ending. With the recent one out...the comedic flavour and overall *ahem* se**al innuendo jokes are just better and funnier...seriously just look at the first minute of it...had LA laughing for a while. LA didn't say it in the actual review above but this anime is probably THEE only anime in which it's OK to have that kind of se**alized jokes, IT'S THAT GOOD, also LA has to say all the seiyuu's for this anime did very well, in terms of comedic value, they put emphasis in their wording or their reactions allowing the se**al innuendo's to work perfectly allowing the comedic timing for almost every joke work every time. Overall, the recent one is nice re-refresher to the hectic craziness which is Seitokai Yakuindomo..LA loves it, loves it, loves it...hope for a second season!!! | 10/10 | ||
| Ikkitousen series | DONE | Dragon Destiny: F**K this anime...seriously...just f**k it. Ok...so the story has 3 factions of schools fight- *anty SHOTS EVERY F**KIN' 5 seconds, it's fanservice he'!??!?!?!?....seriously f**k the storyline, it's confusing as he' anyways. Ok ok fine LA knows that this piece of fanservice trash is based on one of the four great Chinese literature Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but this anime just didn't care?..how didn't it care???...the f**kin' fanservice. Ohh the fanservice isn't just *anty shots every 5 seconds...the girls clothes just rip apart like toilet paper during fights so...yeah more fanservice and even se* scenes....WTF. Think on this you buy a big burger and you proceed to eat it, while your eating it think of every *anties on your wardrobe...then think on a stranger sniffing them.....THAT'S THIS ANIME, you will throw up/turn your eye away from all the fanservice given to you in this anime as it's at most...constantly disgusting and annoying you!!!. Ok LA's point...it's based on a great literature but the f**kin' execution of it is just plain disgusting. The storyline itself would have been better if ALL the fanservice was taken out...it could have average at the most. In all this anime is the skidmark of the fighting/shounen genre. Now next sea-...this series got ANOTHER SEASON....F**K THIS S**T!??!?!. Great Guardians: F**K THIS S**T...that's all LA has to say about this season...Ok?..problems?...well the previous problem from Dragon Destiny are STILL in this season (per say the fanservice mainly), the storyline is BEYOND stupid and the main villain for this season is a whiny little brat...another words...annoying villian and blatant fanservice that is not needed ticks LA off VERY MUCH SO, however the ending has a plethora of stupid ass pulls it makes LA want to both pull the hairs of the main characters and the main villain as to how stupid they both are...seriously...get a clue main cast. <LA sighs>...LA just hates this season...LA thinks this season has no IMPACT towards the already stupid overladden fanservice premise of the series and thinks this entire season as more of a filler than anything else...at least there isn't anothe- <LA looks below>...F*****************************K YOU IKKITOUSEN... Xtreme Xecutor - F*****************************K YOU IKKITOUSEN...This season is WORSE THAN Great Guardians. The storyline itself is VERY weak, from pulling ass pulls to deus ex machina nearly EVERY EPISODE, the seriousnessness of the "major" fights are tainted because of the b**b shots or *anty shots every time ANYONE FIGHTS...seriously, that is not HOW YOU CREATE TENSION IN A SCENE. Ok now the premise of this season is just seriously weak and outright bulls**t...LA just wants to throw up, fanservice hell is right ohhhh so right and the villain's goal is also stupid and the moral of the season is even worse...practically.. "If your fighters, your goal is to fight and live so that you can the dream"...cliche to the very last...>_>. In all stupid premise, stupid villain and TOO MANY B**B SHOTS...seriously...tone the f**k down on the stupid fanservice scenes...they are very f**king annoying. Overall: In all this fanservice pig swine trash hell of anime is...LA will say it..spank material...this has series has no seriousness of it's storyline, of its premise, of its characters and dozens among dozens of deus ex machina and ass pulls...now excuse LA...  LA: Still not enough...anyways...in speaking of seasonal, LA couldn't believe that Great Guardians season WASN'T A FILLER...so the face value of that season was WORSE than expected. If LA had to choose, Dragon Destiny is the better of the other seasons, seriously just watch Dragon Destiny...FORGET THE REST...if your eyes wants to subject itself to fanservice hell. LA is going to give this f**king stupid premise of a series the f**king "FANSERVICE HELL" Medal. If the fanservice was omitted and the production of the series was better done in terms of the storyline which was based on the Romance of the Three Kingdoms", then this anime series would at least be watchable...but it's not. F**K THE OVERUSE OF FANSERVICE, F**K THIS SERIES...<LA kicks a chair over and leaves>... | Dragon Destiny - 3.2/10 Great Guardians: 2/10 Xtreme Xecutor: 1.5/10 Overall: 2/10 | ||
| Deadman Wonderland | DONE | Errrrr.....bloody and gorey to very last. Ok Deadman Wonderland..starting from storyline, the storyline itself just goes from one thing to another though the body horror is there THE ENTIRE TIME, the fights are a bit impressive however the body horror is combined with this and heaps of blood making this storyline one NOT for the faint hearted. The plot twists does come every now and again however the audience will know it but not the main character..which kinda makes it frustrating when more clues appears. The characters are a bit diverse however in terms of character development, the minor cast gets only small snippets and the main characters hardly gets any development except for "training" which doesn't surmount to not much screentime. The ending....errrr.....a truncated Deus ex Machina ending...yeah, oh yeah this anime also has a few plot holes which also contributed to the truncated ending. In all a gorey anime with a semi-rigid storyline but the ending kinda annoyed LA... | 8.9/10 | ||
| 5 Centimeters per Second | DONE | Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan was this short anime a VERY sad love story. A tale of long distance relationships.....and being a sad story you can see where this is going, what's worse is that there's a third wheel whose feelings ARE NOT reciprocated...yeah. LA was a on the verge of tears on the first episode ALONE. The dialogue for this anime is just utterly poetic...ohh so much and the graphics looks moderately good at best. From what you've read the romance is very much the main focus element in this anime and shows up ALL THE TIME...from that the ending in itself...well just watch for yourself...so....so...so sad. In all....a sad love story...a very sad love story... | 9.3/10 | ||
| Eiken | DONE | FANSERVICE HELL with the side of a non-existent storyline. being a 2 episode OVA...about...about...errrr....yeah...all it is blatant overly gross to absurd fanservice. This anime tries to bring itself to bring in the romance, but like Ikkitousen.......fanservice ruins it to gross extents. The premise itself during the first 3 minutes...it just whiplashes to the events...yeah. This anime's fanservice is outright he'...from it's b**b sizes monstrosities to it's se*ual visual innuendos..makes this a very hard anime to watch...and the se*ual visual innuendos...yeah..LA isn't kidding about that..forewarn as that combined with the blatant fanservice and non-existent storyline has gotten this anime the "Fanservice Hell" Medal. <LA sighs and facepalms> In all...an anime with no storyline and shows awkward to outright gross fanservice scenes nearly the entire way through all the 2 episodes given...another words, blatant b**b spank material trash. | 1.5/10 | ||
| Koe De Oshigoto! | DONE | Well....this anime is awkward...the main protagonist becoming a er*ge seiyuu....yeaaahh..that's the premise of this 2 episode anime. LA is very serious as to how awkward this anime is...and yeah this anime is DEFINITELY FOR 18 and up. For one, they censor the "bad words" as well as censoring the lower regions and se* scenes however the it's more like audio er**ica...by the most of this anime. There is a storyline but it's more like the job as a seiyuu and a bit of romance all rolled into one with a huge load of awkward. In all this isn't an anime like Ikkitousen...it's the AUDIO equivalent to it...but LA still says this anime is not fanservice heavy. Weird and awkward anime for sure for those who watch this. 18+ only should only watch this, SERIOUSLY. | 7/10 | ||
| Mayo Chiki | DONE | Well.....this is some harem. This anime is mainly on the drama romance for the most part with comedy sprinkled here and there that and heaps of moderate fanservice. This little formula makes a decent harem...seriously. This anime has a great seiyuu cast...from Mariya Ise to Kana Asumi to Eri Kitamura to YUKA IGUCHI, with that it makes for great dialogue. Now onto storyline...well it's mostly driven by one character at the most but most of the storyline are character development for each haremettes, in which case is great. Now in terms of drama it's a deus ex machina at times however in other times it feels genuine which leads to some of the romance to be genuine as well. The ending was heartfelt at the very most but the tension leading up to it was a bit saddening. This anime has a good mix of romance, character development, comedy and drama, good harem Mayo Chiki!!!. OVA - This OVA deals with one of the haremettes who didn't have enough screentime in the main storyline, with the character development, this is a good as well as funny OVA and the character development is a plus. | 9.5/10 | ||
| Hayate the Combat Butler Cuties | Ep. 6/13 | Season 1 - When reading Hayate the Combat Butler review, make sure to read at a decent distance away from the computer screen in a well-lit room. Got it? This anime, this season...pure platnium comedy grade COMEDY MINEFIELD!!!!!. This is one of thee funniest breaking the fourth wall comedy in general LA has seen to date. This anime just thrives and excels in it's comedy as well as trying to balance the other genre such as shounen, romance (harem) and gag parodies. The charcater development for this anime is great with it's 52 episode length, many of the minor cast has ALOT of character development as well as the core main cast (Not to mention the snarky narrator is funny as hell - even the main characters talk back to the narrator!!!). Fanservice???...ohhh just fanservice heaven. Now onto the extras...yes this anime has extras in the form of "Butler Network" and LA has to say the extras are also awesome and funny as well. Now onto the topic of comedy, the "breaking the fourth wall"...this anime takes breaking the fourth wall into pieces then repairs it then breaks the fourth wall with a wrecking ball...that's the extent of it's comedy (hell the main characters even go Syn**** SP, the same company who made this season of this anime to make ANOTHER anime). The characters = great and even more memorable due to their character developments episodes, the storyline though crazy and outrageously awesome, it was a great comedy adventure!!!, the comedy.....a platnium mine of funny and breaking of the fourth walls!!!!!. Bring on Season 2 !!!!! Season 2 - Ahhhh this season...this season. Ok for one, all the characters look really polished, not to mention the storyline has both drama as well as comedy and action...balancing it in some sense...the drama mainly on the harem end of it, the action, in the slapstick yet awesome when need to way...and which does make it interesting. Now character development is just like the previous season...both the main and some of the minor cast does get episodic developments whic are good if you wanted to see your favourite character get their day in the limelight. Now the comedy may have been lessened...but it's still there and still funny and it's still a platnium comedy mine in the comedy department. The storyline is both funny and serious when needed, fanservice once again is fanservice HEAVEN, but what LA loved about this season was in Episode 12...mostly because of Hinagiku singing Cruel Angel's Thesis...soooo <LA torpedo nosebleed>..... Now the ending...was good, it had all the cast shown including the minor ones. In all...this season done by JC STAFF was a more polished version of the previous season due to the higher budget JC got.....so this season was very good in all fronts. OVA - A Fanservice beach episode with the whole cast.......<LA nosebleeds>. This OVA was mostly fanservice of the beach kind...with nearly ALL the girls getting the fanservice. However for a fanservice OVA, there was a slight story with this OVA (Yes...yes there was) mostly involving Nagi and an evil ghost. It was outright funny with the story as always (this was JC Staff's OVA thus second season). In all, this OVA was both FANSERVICE HEAVEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <LA nosebleeds> and had a good yet funny subplot, making this a funny fanservice OVA. ~ Can't Take My Eyes Off You ~ - Well this is something different from the Hayate series. This season was just different. In terms of storyline it had less comedy (though it was still there), more drama and it was darker and edgier from it's previous seasons...he' it even had a villain was WASN'T for comedic relief. This season was more about Nagi's family history more than anything, even the harem parts were lessened greatly. The animation for this season was similar to the Hayate the Combat Butler: Heaven is the Place on Earth movie style which LA didn't mind. Though this season was serious, at most it held up the serious part very well, making both the plot twists as well as the plot "tools" makes alot of sense as well as making the villain bats**t insane. In all, this season though it had some comedy (some of that Hayate comedy flavor) but throughout mostly it was serious and dark...the storyline itself was very good and the ending...was both heartwarming and AWESOME. Cuties - (Pre-review): The Baka Trio's episode <Isumi, Miki and Risa: We're not baka!!!..we're equally baka!> | Season 1 - 30/10 Season 2 - 36/10 ~ Can't Take My Eyes Off You ~ - 9.5/10 Cuties - ??/10 | ||
| Copihan | DONE | This anime is wierd. For one it's only a 7 epiosde anime with only 5 minute running time for each episode. Second each episode is only about one main charcater with a few cameos of previous characters from other episodes. In all this anime has no storyline, however with it's characters themselves and their desig-. This anime review is really based on characters and graphics. From this LA can say the characters are ok, one or two are a bit wierd and others just normal to crazy. The graphics are ok, however this anime use transition schemas cleverly espeically in the cameos. In all this anime was sorta on the ball, what with no story but characters were ok and so were the graphics, so LA gave this anime a rating of... | 5/10 | ||
| Murder Princess | DONE | Well....errr.....the name says it all doesn't???. This action-based 6 episode anime was alright premise and interesting storyline....if not for the wierd bouts of "princess slice of life" (errr...call it padding) completely disturbing the good action scenes. Now the villains........LA calls it on crap villains!!!!!...seriously...LA saw what their goal was easily and it was...world domination..OF COURS-...nah it's not worth it. Though the mythos of this anime's world was interesting as well as the final "decision" made during the ending was rather interesting to see, however being a 6 episode anime, it was kinda short-lived. <LA sighs>....the first 3 episodes...was a near borefest in more ways than "HIME-SAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" as at first the villains were ACTUALLY villains...until the next episode and turned into..."Monster of the Week" thing for the next 2 episodes and not even taking a fight against the main character AND FLEEING... it was at most crap villains doing crap things for something so common.....as power and world domination...and failing at it, until the Big Bad appears that is. The musical score for the OP and even the battle music were at least decent as it was all metallic. There was maybe one plot twist.......which LA saw coming because of the foreshadowing. Call this anime "a Princess gone badass with the princess annoyance slice of life as an attachment during the first half...then in the later half...it goes badass again."...errr....kinda hard to call this anime then...hehehehe. | 7/10 | ||
| Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt | DONE | What the f***, ass****, mutherf***er...can't you f***in' see LA is doing a bloody anime review about angels..the f**king hell...is...this f***king premise....f***!!!!. Ok...seriously..Gainax...what sick diverted, perverted Powerpuff Girl deconstruction anime of an abomination have you made???. This anime goes through the simple Powerpuff Girl routine...just..completely perverted and TONS of swearing (In Engrish) and massive amout of toliet and se**al jokes you can stick a ***** in the ******* in. Each episode has 2 stories some with pop cultural references...like Back to the Future and Tranformers even..and as said before...make the story perverted and disgusting to outright jawdropping. The story really picks up in the final 2 episodes...and HOLY S***...talk about a Gainax ending..and by Gainax ending meaning during the ending something completely different arises within the ending, now this anime not only did it once...BUT TWICE in the last seconds of the final episode..WHAT THE F****!?!?!?!??!. All the stories within the storyline were at most disgusting and perverted but again the final 2 episodes.......<LA's jaws falls to the ground>...unexpected...really unexpected. In all LA can only say three words about this entire anime.....WHAT....THE......FU**!?!?!??!?!??!?!?!. | 7/10 | ||
| Mnemosyne | DONE | Yuri...torture...Immortality...and errr....se*....you get this anime...yes you read right. This anime is one of LA's weirdest and fanDISservice animes LA has EVER encountered. Oh there are se* scenes...mixed with yuri but...WTF still. There is a storyline to this weird as HELL anime with a very convincing villain and sorta a pseudo-detective stories tied in. The cases for the mysteries are interesting...it's like you have the slightest inclination of the matter...yet the result is almost NOWHERE near it. Now being a 6 episode you won't get much?, WRONG. It's a story where you really do get a connection towards the main characters...yet...this anime is vicious in it's kill count...VERY vicious. This anime feels wrong to watch what with it's UNcensored se* scenes as well well..it's fandisservice..seriously it just is. Ok in all, sorta-memorable characters...a good storyline in the basis of it's mystery detective/character development plotlines about the main character but the se* scenes were sometimes.....yeah fandisservice. Ohh the ending???...it was intense...yet the end result was sorta flipped at the last 10 minutes or so...leaving LA wondering... Ohh one minor note, this anime is seriously only for 18+ due to the se* scenes and whatnot..... | 7.5/10 | ||
| Shakugan no Shana series | DONE | Note: THIS IS LA's 100th ANIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Season 1 - Wow....LA loves this series already, ok Season 1. For one this season not only had detailed and interesting mythos about the world of Shakugan no Shana, the characters are all diverse and MOST ARE AWESOME, lots of character development from lots of characters, most of the characters are memorable and most are FLAMIN' BADASSES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, especially Shana and Wilhelmina. The voice acting was very good, especially Rie Kugimiya, Shizuka Ito, Hitome Nabatame and Ayako Kawasumi to name a few. Now this season had balanced harem and action PERFECTION...no LA is serious, the drama really does add to the plot as a whole and the action scenes are FLAMIN' AWESOME!!!. Both the drama of this season as well as the action are very intense and with the mythos of the Shakugan no Shana makes this VERY VERY AWESOME. The villains for this season...well at the beginning, some of the villains were annoying to disturbing, however near the middle of season, most if not all villains are either bats**t insane or a powerful tactician villains that affects the plot OHH SO MUCH. The ending???...wow...awesomeness all around, no anticlimactic stuff happens which really does please LA, that and the fact that with the mythos of the Shakugan no Shana...makes the ending as well as the plot twists extremely satisfying and AWESOME!!!!!. In all, this season was pure flamin' AWESOME in all aspects. LA is expecting great things from this series. Season II - Wow...just wow.....this season BLEW THE FIRST SEASON OUT OF THE FLAMES. The drama, the action, the storyline, the plot twists, the ending, EVERYTHING ABOUT IT WAS JUST AWESOME AND OUTSTANDED LA. This season was beyond LA's expectations. For one, the drama was not only intense, it both worked towards the storyline and it's characters influence throughout the plot. The characters all get their screentime as well as getting most of them get ALOT of development (The main cast). The storyline was at first calm but with the entire "Monster of the Week", to high school drama, to interwined fantasy and school life intensity. The plot twists...wow... just wow...if you think about it enough, the plot twists does NOT come off as deus ex machina...THAT IS SOMETHING HARD TO DO (due to the mythos of Shakugan no Shana), most if not all the plot twists astounded LA in the awesome way possible. The action scenes were also beyond awesome, all intense and adrenaline-fueled and the battle perception of most the cast are astounding making the battles both strategically cool and just purely awesome. Now the ending???...well let's just say it does both a cliffhanger and link most of the plot twists together as well as making it an epic finale battle...another words....AWESOME ENDING. In all, this season..this season was beyond LA's expectation and made LA speechless and astounded to the very end...BRAVO JC STAFF, BRAVO. Season S - Hehe...this OVA season was a split. The first half of S was mainly on funny to heartwarming situations which doesn't impact the main storyline in any way such as one episode having mindswitching...to an entire episode dedicated to Wilhelmina Carmel. The other half of S Season was a bit more serious with a bit of Shana's past with a detective-ish case, which was actually interesting and by the time you know the errr...."culprit"...it makes sense, however the stinger from the final episode makes hints towards the third season which intrigued LA. In all, this S Season was both funny and serious for a 4 episode OVA and plus we get more insight to Shana's past...can't wait for the third season!!! Season III - This season outstanded LA is both the good and bad ways. For one, it brought upon the "cerberus syndrome" in the first 3 episodes which both confused and flipped LA off the season due to sudden change so quickly and then...it became a warzone for most of the entire season...then it linked most of the past plot points from all the past 2 seasons making it make sense (which was cool)...then a bit of anti-climax...then..the ending...it was a 50/50 hate and love thing for LA. As you read, most of this season was all battles and wars...which wasn't like the past Shakugan no Shana seasons as they were more the villains plan to thwart, which LA didn't like, there were like 5% of school drama...95% war and fighting. However most of the wars and battles were again had that battle perception from the previous seasons just with that extra plus due to the fact it's a war and all. There was drama in it (more than 5% of the school drama) which accompanied with the warzone storyline very much due to the strong connection of the main characters and all (you know whether they may die or not). There was character development...little towards the minor cast (he' some of the "school minor" cast has little to do with the main storyline) but it had MAJOR DEVELOPMENT TOWARDS SHANA AND YUJI...which...was great to Shana but not so great to Yuji. There was an anti-climax near the end of the season which LA didn't like...LA really didn't like it...however the end result was still awesome and had a tearjerkin' ending. So you can see...LA is a bit torn from this season...however LA knows for sure...even though it had it's faults...it still was awesome. Shakugan no Shana Tokubetsuhen Episode - HOT SPRINGS EPISODE!!!!...with unrequited/oblivious love is in the air and errr....Oga-chan....stop thinking yaoi things...it's...yeah. But yeah hot springs episode thus...FANSERVICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! as well as a bit of romance, even if it was oblivious. In all...funny fanservice, laid back episode. Shakugan no Shana-tan Specials - Funniest injokes EVA. It's like taking all the mythos and serious to some situations within the first 2 seasons of Shakugan no Shana and making fun of the situation which cracked LA up SOOOO MUCH, not to mention Shana being chibi!!!...eh...ohh right...this being JC Staff...Index-tan MAKES A CAMEO...very funny at that. In all...these are some AWESOME FUNNY SPECIALS. Overall - In all...the series...WAS F**KING AWESOME of an anime series. The story, the drama, the battle perception of the battles being INGENIUS, the characters being extremely memorable and just outright an awesome series. The storyline for the entire 3 seasons were awesome, the villains were tactical geniuses as well as extremely powerful foes, the characters were very memorable due to both the drama and romance added to them giving them depth AS WELL AS the character development most of the cast gets (ESPECIALLY SHANA AND YUJI), again the battles were brilliantly done to almost perfection, the first and second season are seasons that give most of this out, however yeah...the third season was more focused on wars and fighting with little bits of drama dropping in. Ohh LA really forgot this for 3 seasons...the OP's, ENDING's and battle music was just AWESOMELY CATCHY and outright adrenaline fueling in the battles. In all...Shakugan no Shana...LA tips LA's critic hat to you...you may have your flaws...but it's still AWESOME. | Season 1 - 32/10 Season II - 40/10 Season S - 9/10 Season III - 36/10 Overall - 39/10 | ||
| Haiyore Nyarko-san! W | Ep. 6/?? | Season 1 - Cthlulu...you know H.P Lovecraft...now MOEIFY!!!!! into a romantic comedy/shout outs to SEVERAL anime references. This anime is a very good "romantic comedy" with the twists of the heroines/heroes being Cthulu based monsters "moe"ified with yuri and yaoi undertones thrown in. The storyline was very comedic, slapstick romance and villains for that "added comedic reliefs" moments. Now LA has to point out something, Eri Kitamura and Rie Kugimiya does crossdressing voices which in itself, they both did very good jobs..however Rie Kugimiya's characters gives off that...ummm..."IT'S A TRAP!" feeling. Kana Asumi does a very genki character being the main character does a fast-pacing dialogue and really does the "comedic value" of this anime very high. The plot twists for this anime was actually funny be it towards mostly the villains or within the episode. In all, this anime was very funny...the characters, the shout outs, the episodes, he' even the villains were outright funny (even their "motives" are outright weird). The ending was at most heartwarming...but again...it was funny at the end of it. This anime reeks of high comedic value, all of it. As Nyarko said "I'm the Chaos that always crawls up to you with an smile, Nyarlathotep!", and LA came out smiling after this anime...very funny anime. OVA - Way to take the magical girl genre and flip it to crazy proportions...cos well come on it's Haiyore Nyarko-san...and this OVA having many anime references *ahem* Hyouka and Accel World *ahem*...this OVA was crazy to magical girl transformations...pun intended. W - (Pre-review): Unrequited love??? | Season 1 - 9/10 W - ??/10 | ||
| Sword Art Online | DONE | SAO Arc (Ep. 1 ~ 14): This arc was pretty good at the start, mainly the first 3 episodes with a very compact anime atmosphere and the main character and the gaming elements. However as the arc goes on, the storyline was slanted to either telling a sub-story or actually carry on with the real plot, being both good and bad at times. The fight scenes for the most part was awesome outright and with a bonus for the gaming elements involved. However with the "side-stories", sometimes the minor cast only has about 1 to 2 episode development which wasn't great but Kirito and Asuna gets the most development for obvious reasons of being the main leads. Near the end of this arc, LA kinda saw multiple deus ex machina's which wasn't explained which annoyed LA ALOT. The biggest problem with this arc was it's pacing, from fighting like a badass in amazing fights to laid-back stuff to romance sub-plot the next, it was all over the place. But LA does has to say this...the fights were awesome, some of the gaming elements touched upon was pretty cool, the main leads do get heaps of development (including romance) but it's stinted due to the pacing of the storyline. Overall, this arc was ok, but LA was annoyed at the pacing and confused due to the ending of this arc. ALO Arc (Ep. 15 ~ 25): This arc was...ok. It had it's flaws but it also had it's great point from the SAO arc as well. The gaming elements in this arc was lessened but was still there, but this time it "kinda" did what SAO arc didn't....go on with the story...with a price that is...the villain SUCKED, he was your card carrying run of the mill villain with some weird perverted tendencies which was NOT ok compared to the SAO arc villain. The story was at the very least had some pacing that was better than the SAO with some drama within it making it better, there was also LESS action compared to the SAO arc which was kinda of a let down, not to mention the characters to get the most development is Kirito and Suguha...hardly any from the minor characters and even Asuna gets put into the Damsel in Distress role.....when she was suppose to be the leading action girl role...yeeaaaahhhh. The ending was well was pretty unexpected but was resolving some of the plot which again was good. But the drama given was...borderline incest...YUP.....but that aside, the drama even if it did have to do incest was actually half-way decent. In all, this arc...it had what SAO arc had but it also did what SAO arc shouldn't have done...the "villain" was the worst part of this arc BY far. Overall - Now this anime is going to be hard to review overall, due to either fandom bases might rip LA a new one for siding with either side. However LA has to say this anime was great on the action scenes (even from the little it had in the ALO arc), there was a bit of forced drama throughout the anime sorta on the romance between Asuna and Kirito, but some real drama between Kirito and Suguha. The story in all was both messed up by pacing (SAO) and also had some structure (ALO) which was ok, the villains were both unique (SAO) and just classically evil (ALO). Due to the differing nature of both arcs...LA will be kinda contradicting LA's self, except for that the minor characters hardly getting character development for their role in the story for both arcs which was not a good thing. Overall...if you want to see action and like gaming at the same time with that bit of romance...this anime is for you. | SAO Arc - 9.3/10 ALO Arc - 8/10 Overall - 8.9/10 | ||
| Clannad series | DONE | Clannad - Ummmm...wow...<LA sniffs>...Key's best work. Clannad is one of those anime you HAVE to see...this being a sad romantic story...seriously...it is. Clannad has a diverse set of characters, more so with the ALOT of character development with some heartwarming to some VERY touching sad moments. This anime studio is the people who gave you AIR and Angel Beats...LA thinks that SAYS ALOT. LA praises Clannad for it's heartwarming sad romantic stories ...seriously they were good on the advanced level of a sad romantic story...he' LA even cried a few times through some of the characters development...yeah...that's right...Clannad made LA cry out of either tears of happiness or tears of sadness. Clannad has a very high "romantic sad story" level but it's not just a sad story, there were some comic relief moments and some jokes that were funny to relieve the tension. Clannad wasn't highly expected of LA...until LA got to the bulk of the story...LA's expectation was BLOWN away from it's story ALONE especially the ending...soo heartwarming and emotionally invested to the characters to the very end. Just wow...this is Key Visual Arts' best work (well until LA watches the rest of their works but for now this is their best work). Clannad Extra Episode - Hehe...more romance and funny scenes...in summer. This episode adds more to Clannad's epilogue...and yeah this episode has the same Clannad flavour. Good funny episode. Tomoyo Chapter - Aaaaaaaand this one did even better....foretelling Tomoyo's arc in one episode and did it EXTREMELY WELL...not to mention Tomoyo was LA's favourite character...so yeah BONUS. The romance???...absolutely NAILED IT...the romance not being all lovey dovey...well it did have those moments...but this romance also had obstacles that were very convincing yet also heartbreaking...what's that???...it's like the Tsukasa arc from Amagami SS???...no it's not (well the premise was sorta similar)...the Tsukasa arc did it in 6 episodes...Tomoyo's Chapter did it in ONE. Very good episode if your fans of Tomoyo...and bravo Key once again. ~After Story~ - If Clannad was only the starting point of climbing a mountain, then this is season...is the journey to the top. What does that means?. It means the advanced sad romance takes 100 points in soooo many ways than one. At first it's the carefree stories of some of the other characters' development which like the previous season was both heartwarming and serious with the comic relief when needed. However it comes around the halfway point where...s**t hits the fan...it gets depressing then even more and even more (the depressing is not however not a detriment towards the storyline), it serious takes "heartbreaking" and goes to the stratosphere, LA CRIED AND FELT SOO BAD FOR THE CHARACTERS every time. Not only does this season did make it extremely heartwretching and heartbreaking to no end, it show us a message, about life...yes...this serious does. It takes the bad and good and shows it to us in real life situations, LA is being serious here, through from teenager to adulthood and ALL THE HARDSHIPS it gives at us and pushes it. Yeah, LA calls "The road to life" on this season. Then the ending...well, it was kinda confusing but heartwarming...LA IS NOT GONG TO SPOIL THIS. In all, this season outdid the previous ohhhhh soo much...<LA starts to cry>...LA isn't crying...LA is NOT crying <LA starts to cry>...AHHHHH LA said LA wouldn't be doing this..........the first half putting more of it's character developments to it's minor characters and making it both serious and heartwarming, to it's second half making it just heartbreaking/wretching/warming to the point it reflects upon real life situations, not to mention this season RESOLVING plotlines from the PREVIOUS SEASON as well as resolving this one. This romance anime........is just that great...<LA wipes LA's tears away>...THIS REALLY IS Key Visual Art's best work...from this season as well as the previous put together...this REALLY is their best work... OVA - A blast from the past of Clannad...before the events of Clannad, a year back and the subtle hints towards Tomoya and Nagisa's meeting. This little episode was both a bit of nostalgia and nice remarks on what was to come. In all, this extra episode was a nice extra.. Kyou Chapter - This chapter on the other hand.....just like Tomoyo's Chapter..it just did it...LA cried like no other due to the situation the characters were placed on, yes...LA was also a Kyou fan and this episode moved LA to tears, and the ending.....my god...LA cried...just cried....thank you Key Visual Arts again...for making Kyou's episode great.....and sad as well!!!. | Clannad - 20/10 Clannad ~After Story~ - 25/10 | ||
| Accel World | DONE | Wow...just wow. LA didn't expect LA's expectation to be excelled soo much. Accel world has a solid storyline, character development and the ending is SOO GOOD. Ok let's run down, the characters are all diverse and add that to their "duel" avatars...BONUS..then add to their character developments???..EVEN BETTER. Now the storyline in itself is similar to Shakugan no Shana style of storylining but with that gaming twist instead of fantasy twist...you know what that means???...the mythos of Accel World is AWESOME...it just is. See Accel World has it's mythos, characters and character development linked making it all the more cooler and add that too the amazing animation and the fight scenes......<LA faints>...yes LA really liked this anime. Now with the mythos it causes the so called "deus ex machina" situations VOIDED and linked to some of the plot twists???...BONUS AGAIN. Now character development does come into play and even sometimes the minor characters do get their own...even if it was small and they aren't just characters being pushed to one side for some other situations...they actually matter. Now the ending???....ohohohohoohoooooooooo..let's JUST SAY it was both heartwarming and SATISFYING in more ways than one...emphasis on SATISFYING. In all, this anime at first may put you off...but by the half way mark you're hooked by the fight scenes and Accel World as a whole...well it's LA's opinion...may change from others however...LA was pleased with this anime even when LA didn't have much expectation from it in the first place... OVA - Well...this OVA is...not so much fanservicey than you think, but it still has it. This OVA does take it in the laxxed way a bit...by going to a hot springs whilst still keeping with the missony style like Accel World still has. We do get to know a bit more about the main character...as well as the character relationship development from the main character and Kuroyukihime. In all, this sorta-fanservicey OVA was pretty good...what with the small character development shown also. Specials: These specials are...*ahem*...weird...and chibi. Yeah there are some puns and jokes here and there...but yeah...most of the skits they do are just plain randomly weird...but at least it's funny. | 18/10 | ||
| Joshiraku | DONE | <LA in seiza sitting position and then flings out a paper fan and says>:Don't ask stupid questions!...hehe...but these characters do sometimes...leading to plenty of funny wordplay, puns, tongue-twisters and japanese traditional jokes. This anime as is...is ALL COMEDY and very good at it, leading to some very funny moments. Add that with the character interactions with their stereotype niche (Butt monkey, emotionless one, violent yet posh one, childish one and the ordinary one with impossible luck). These characters are Rakugo (落語, literally "fallen words") performers talking about anything that happens which yeah leads to funny wordplay and puns, heck even breaking the fourth wall jokes. This anime is just full of comedy...it's just if you do get the jokes at times, it can be very funny...for others who won't well yeah...you'll miss the joke. But in all...this anime is all out comedy in the traditional sense but is cleverly comical most of the time leading to some very funny scenes...ok ok LA knows that LA kinda repeated...but LA really likes the comedy in this anime and the characters were interesting (well their interactions as well). Thank you for your attention...<LA bows down then leaves the stage> Special: <LA in seiza sitting position and says>: This episode comedy is just great, well...we do know the premise correct, it's all comedy and so...the comedy presented in this episodes jokes was extremely funny. It still got that Joshiraku comedy flavour but taken it a bit further with it's breaking the fourth wall and "realistic Japanese fact" jokes. In all, this special episode was great, all due to the jokes give- <Lore claps>... given out. <Lore stops clapping>. Thank yo- <Lore claps again> Th- <Lore starts clapping again> THANK Y- <Lore claps then LA angerly hits Lore with a paper fan> LA HASN'T FINISHED YOU IDIOT!!!...*ahem* Thank you for your attention...<LA bows down then wacks Lore with a paper fan before leaving the stage> | 9/10 | ||
| Rosario + Vampire series | DONE | Season 1 - Ahahaha...................PANTY SHOTS. Ok this anime has ALOT of fanservice, it was notorious for it, point blank...however before LA goes into the storyline elements...yeah what does LA think this is???...Fanservice Heaven or Hell???...LA is going on a limp here and say..."in-between" cos LA has seen MUCH WORSE fanservice hell animes, ohh yes this anime does show ALOT of fanservice off, but unlike some anime LA has seen before...this anime's fanservice is TOLERABLE to an extent compared to the animes LA has seen before...yes LA just said that the panty shots in this anime.....was TOLERABLE. Ok now that out of the wa- <LA hears a huge uproar>...OHH SHUT UP...you watch Eiken or Ikkitousen and then watch this...you'll be thankful for this anime. Now time for storyline, the storyline for this anime was at first "predictable" not to mention some very annoying stock footage that happened ALOT, which annoyed LA to no end...not to mention that freakin' annoying exposition bat talking about something...WE JUST SAW 2 minutes AGO, other than the stock footages, at least there was comedy not to mention bringing in the main cast together within that time to make the first couple of episodes watchable. However near the last 3 episodes...it had a MOOD WHIPLASH with an awesome bats**t insane villain, as well as pulling out of the whole "Monster of the Week" scenario from the previous early episodes and making the ending in itself very very good. Besides from the first couple of episodes which was pretty predictable...the ending and those episodes leading up to that was pretty good of a storyline. Now for the characters...well...most of the harem cast do get character development...which was pretty good, bonus during the ending character development whatnot. In all...if you can be tolerable to some fanservice to a good harem with cute monsters into the mix...this anime will be.....ok. Now is LA's time to suck on the blood of Capu2... Capu2 - Ok...LA has a bone to pick with this season. Ok positives first LA suppose...for one, the ending was great, but compared to Season 1...yeah kinda inferior. Next would have to be the new character who appears and does appear in all episodes, now to mention this new character does get some decent amount of character development. What else???......ahh that's right...Tsukune and his harem also gets their character developments as well, not to mention some of the plot twists was pretty good, once again compared to first season...yeaaaahhh inferior, however the comedy for this season was outright better than Season 1, this season just did better with it's jokes and breaking the fourth wall. Now, the negatives............ahahahahaha...let's get the easy outta the way. First is the fanservice...it went up a few doses...check list???..ok. Panty shots check, chest shots check aaaaaaaand nudity check...yeahhhh...the fanservice may have gone up but at least this season had "bat" censors...so LA calls "in-between" Fanservice Hell or Heaven...<LA hears uproar but LA shows the viewer a poster of Ikkitousen and Eiken, the audience shuts up>. Ok...now for LA's annoying thing about this season, yes there is a plot.....around the near the ending part...yeah. LA saw the first 7 ~ 9 episodes to be filler...we get a one time villain, kick his/her ass then onto the next, move onto the next event, rinse and repeat. We get little character development and plot twists from some of the early episodes sure, but it DOES NOT CONTRIBUTE TO THE PLOT...i-i-it just doesn't, the only parts that do is around the half-way mark. So you see why LA has a bone to pick with this season, it's both great in terms of comedy, character development and it's ending, but was utterly lazy on the storyline (for the most part) and the fanservice was errrrrrrrr...ok <LA hears uproar but LA shows the viewer a poster of Ikkitousen and Eiken, the audience shuts up again>. | Season 1 - 8.5/10 Capu2 - 7/10 | ||
| Robotics;Notes | DONE | Robots, a club, a spiritual successor to Steins;Gate. So is it any good...LA has mixed feelings for this anime, this anime was produced by 5pb and Nitroplus however like their other anime Chaos;Head...has some faults that LA is ticked off about, however this anime does have it's good points. Ok good points, for one, this anime did have some great character developments towards most of the main cast (making some of the characters becoming memorable during their time in the limelight), the conspiracy theory given this time around was also a pretty interesting concept, the plot twists were pretty well done and finally, the ending to this anime was halfway decent. However now comes the faults LA saw in this anime, like Steins;Gate, it had a slow start, however...this anime took TOO LONG TO GET TO THE BUILD UP, most of the build up was from the character developments which were great, however that compensated for the slow start for about 3/4 of the anime. Next, from this "slow start", they RUSHED IT, the "rush" mostly being from the rushed romance between the main leads as it occurred and developed too late for LA too take seriously, yes the ending did help it but yeah, it was too late. Now, for the overall of this anime as a whole, it was a decent anime, however it couldn't stand close to it's predecessor Steins;Gate, as LA was expecting something along the lines of Steins;Gate's great storytelling but instead, it got a less decent version with some rushed storytelling to compensating for the ending. The ending was great but trying to lead up to it was a slow slow SLOW journey however without the character development and some plot twists making up for it...barely... | 8.9/10 | ||
| Durarara!! | DONE | LA: This anime AMAZED LA TO NO END..... ---------------------Lore entered chat room----------------------- LA: This anime is just awesome from the character developments to it's plot twists from beginning to end. Lore: OK so??? LA: For one, the characters, even the minor ones (LA is serious about this), every character has their purpose in the storyline, if one comes and goes, be wary that they will come back to influence the story once again Lore: Yeah so??? LA: Next the plot twists.........THERE'S PLOT TWISTS WITHIN THE PLOT TWISTS and yes it doesn't lead to any deus ex machina...and with plot twists that appear for the majority of the plot...it means AWESOMENESS!!, come on, this animes many storylines has gang wars and politics with the supernatural intertwined and conspiracy to do with human trafficking??...THAT SOUNDS AWESOME!!!!! Lore: Are you fan-errrr---boy/girl-ism??? LA: Then it leads down to the characters are fleshed out, most of the cast, that being roughly 10 characters getting the spotlight in nearly EVERY episode...it gets even better Lore: How??? LA: The storyline format had that similar to Baccano!!'s storyline format, this anime's predecessor and purely for that and added with the massive amounts of amazing plot twists makes this story outrageous awesome, addicting and it's that kind of anime that "you just have to know what happens next". Also the dialogue for this anime does have it's comedic side at times but the dialogue are also insightful in real life situations and it makes you think...seriously...this anime is awesome :D Lore: Taking too much about an anime LA...geez it's just a sh- LA: Urusai!!!, anyways this anime is just great, plot, characters, story and even the music compliments this anime soo well... Lore: Pfffttt... LA: Lore: Lore will shut up now... 0.0 LA: Wow...Lore just totally got owned...by an anime opening Lore: Ju-ju-just... LA: In all, this anime is just awesome in all fronts, LA absolutely praises this anime for it's character development and plot twists and the format for this anime will get you into it from beginning to end...just an awesome anime...now LA needs to eject someone out of a chat room...excuse LA Lore: Wait what are you...arghhhh!!!!! ---------------------Lore left chat room----------------------- LA: Well LA is done for today...bye!!!..seriously this anime was pure AWWWWWWWWWWWWWESOMENESS!!!!! ---------------------LA left chat room----------------------- ---------------------No one is currently in chat room----------------------- | 32/10 | ||
| Ai Mai Mi | DONE | This anime is........mindf**ked up. There's no story what to speak of, well on speaking through that it's only a 2 minute episode, but still...there is NO storyline what to speak of and the "incidents" that occur is plain bizarre...like a girl dying from someone DRAWING MANGA THEN TURNING INTO A ROBO-manga artist then dropping it in the next episode...yeah..it's that f**ked up. However for an anime short this f**ked up it doesn't mean it sucks, no the mindf**kery is it's ONLY good point. If you want a mindf**kery anime and wanting to turn your brain off for a few minutes this anime short is good enough for ya!. | 5.5/10 | ||
| Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood | DONE | This Full metal Alchemist was AWWWWWWWWWWWWWESOME, ok LA knows LA did a LOONG and LA means a LOOONG hiatus on this anime and outright LA regrets not finishing it, but now since LA HAS finished it, LA is just awestruck on the premise of this Full Metal Alchemist. The lore of Full Metal in any canon or spinoff (well this anime being true to the manga which is a plus) is and outright awesome, the past history of the characters mainly the Elric brothers and some minor characters being extremely deep and influences the storyline like it was hugging someone to the point of suffocating. The story starts and ends adrenalined fueled and with the added lore and the villains being dynamic and complex and add that to the character plot twists and plot twists in general which doesn't have ANY deus ex machina so it makes it AWESOME plot twists makes a great storyline. The fights are just amazing and added to the animation making it look crisp and smooth and yeah with the lore adds some extremely awesome fights. Now the dialogue here is very much deep, talking through fighting and some calm scenes but most of the dialogue are very deep, such as talking about others idealism to friendship and sacrifices for your own goals...yeah it's THAT deep. Finally the ending was outright heartfelt and had some awesome fighting to no end. In all, this Full Metal is just AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWESOME, nuff said... | 30/10 | ||

| Onii-chan no Koto Nanka Zenzen Suki Janai n Dakara ne!! | DONE | This anime is utterly shameless...just f**king shameless. Everything from *anty shots, chest shots, needless cliched fanservice to f**king yaoi and yuri scenarios to se*ual innuendos to siscon incest fanservice which gets more shameless than f**king...........EIKEN!??!!?. LA is serious, most if not all the episodes have needless fanservice hell littered throughout every episode, given little to no storyline at all because the fanservice practically swallows it whole. The characters (this includes the main character and his harem)...you just can't sympathize or even get emotionally attached to them...why you say???...because either their pervertedly insane or their perverted scum..the later might as well be a COMPLIMENT to these characters as they don't f**king care, they also might as well be f**king hypocrites due to their hidden pervertedness, due to this you really CAN'T sympathize with any of these characters, none of these characters have ANY DIGINITY. Ok there is something LA has to at least say about the f**king incest part of this anime, it's just shameless, comparing this to Nisemonogatari is far off the mark in it's incest subtext, Nisemonogatari's incest given is at least played for laughs, this anime's incest subtext is point blank pushed on your face with the extra punch of fanservice. Now...let's see...a story where the fanservice is more story than the storyline itself, characters you can't be attached to or sympathize with...this is just a f**king bad fanservice anime...just just if you want to try and watch this anime...just just...just get the **** out...just do it, it's not worth it. | 1.5 or GTFO/10 | ||
| Kore wa Zombie desu ka? Of the Dead | DONE | Season 1 - Wow...ok...this anime is pretty damn good. For starters, the beginning was a typical comedy then somehow it turned into a harem with a bit of shounen action then it transformed itself into a serious shounen, the finally it turned into a comedy...how was the transition from all this???...it was done pretty good, with subtle hints as to how the transition between this occurred and done brilliantly even with the plot twists given and yes it does make sense with the clues given. For a battle harem comedy hybrid of an anime it does have it's fanservice, however it does more in it's battle than it's harem, though the harem does get major development from about half of the harem which works out pretty well, because of the lore of the Kore wa Zombie desu ka? world and that all of the characters are memorable, weirdly funny and badass at the same time...or just plain adorable at times. For the serious side of this season's anime, it was actually pretty serious and believable and that to the villain given gave a great battle harem anime, on the other side, the comedy given with all it's in jokes was pretty funny most of time with light sprinkles of fanservice. As for the ending given...WTF...seriously...WTF just happened but it did end on a sweet note with most of the plot points being resolved in the PENULTIMATE EPISODE, NOT the ending but yeah, it still stands on the resolution part. In all, this is a great battle harem anime and even the fanservice given can be ignored if need be to make a great anime...now time for Of the Dead no???... Of the Dead - Taking off where the previous season was and a better touch towards it. Again it was a balanced battle harem from both the battle and harem, with all the funny comedy in there as well making it all the more better. Not to mention this time around it had a comic relief villain with a plot twist which was a nice turnaround and funny all the same. It still had that Kore wa Zombie desu ka flavour which LA really liked and again, the battle harem was balanced with a bit of fanservice and at times filler episodes that didn't feel like filler episodes which was pretty awesome again. The ending was also pretty awesome at that however it didn't resolve some things which kinda got to LA however with that "resolution not being resolved", it made hints towards a third season which LA would fully support. In all, this was a pretty funny and cool season, it knows how to balance out the fanservice, the battles and the harem situations very nicely, which is one of the reasons LA liked about this season not to mention the character development and plot twists given by most of the characters were a bonus. OVA's - Ahhh these OVA's were pretty funny, perverted yes....but with good reasons within the storyline and being pretty heartfelt when needed. These OVa's were either a continuation of a filler episode or just funny skits in general but with some of that heartfelt moments that comes into play kinda dissipates the pervetedness that shows in these OVA's. In all, these OVA's are the same flavour of the previous seasons, just bit more comedic. | Season 1 - 9.9/10 Of the Dead - 9.99/10 | ||
| Yuru Yuri | DONE | Season 1 - YURI OVERLOAD...ok LA has..has...hassss...something to say <LA starts to drool>...LA is a yu- <static> <On an alternate universe> Hey you guys, I've just saw this anime and it is something I have to say it a funny yuri anime, as my sidekick Lore called it "comedically decent with some nice in-jokes and yuri...", and I agree. The comedy for this anime is outright yuri as it's in-jokes and all the characters are comedic relief with their own degree, in which I find Chitose being the best one out of the bunch. There isn't much of a storyline, there are little snippets of their past or just relationship developments between many of the characters. This entire anime is purely comedy with that *hmphh hmph* yuri touch.......it's not a touch it's a hug towards it. The characters are the best things about this anime alongside the comedy given by most of them, though there isn't much of a story and it's more of a slice of life school life anime, the characters and the "yuri comedy" given is more than enough for this anime, even if your not a yuri fan, the comedy in general is pretty funny. A very funny anime if you want a bit of- </alt universe> <static> YURIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <LA faints>...<LA cripplingly gets back up>...good... <LA gets a nosebleed>...anime...<LA then faints again> ♪♪ - <static> Wow, another season, ok let's get this..<static> UNNNNNNNNNNNNIIIIIIIIIIIIVVVVERRRRRRRRRRRSSSEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! <static> What was that???...anyways, the yuru continues in this next season and the comedically bent slice of life yuri continues with more of a comedic punch. Now, though this season didn't have a plot so much decent amount of skits put into each episodes, the skits themselves were awesomely comedy bent to no end that I cried out of shear funniness. Yes, there isn't much of a plot but when an anime has it's comedy all the more better for compensation, THEY MUST BE DOING SOMETHING RIGHT. The jokes ranges from one hit wonders to past in-jokes from the previous season with an upgrade or downright funny. Now Lore said that I hates yuri...well...<static> LA LOVES I- <static> what is up with this static???...anyways, for this season, the favourite character would have to be Sakurako, the only reason Chitose wasn't was because of her down-screetime. Finally, the ending...an interesting take, I won't spoil but it was both a comedic facepalm to the "main protagonist" and heartfelt...how do you get that kind of ending?????....hmmmmm. In all, this season was just better than the previous season as it played off it and really was an upgrade from the previous season in terms of comedy. <static> <LA is seen with an ongoing nosebleed>...LA is sooo happy....yuri heave- | Season 1 - 8.9/10 ♪♪ - 10/10 | ||

Does becoming a hikkomori and believing in these things makes your crazy or is it those in society that are fooled by it???...SHAFT...wow...you did it...you made one of the best slice of life, supernatural romance shows. Not only that but it again from the above part shows ALOT of messages foretelling society and their dealt with the supernatural within a normal slice of life setting. Now this anime is mainly based via slice of life with romance twisted around it, with the supernatural wrapping the entire thing, now it is a normal slice of life show, showing the life of a transfer student and his day to day life there...but in a city that "suspectedly" has aliens sightings, along with his cousin who believes in aliens........you can see how this anime can be interesting. Tripled with it's eccentric characters and their developments as well makes this slice of life anime AS WELL AS the "implied" romance between most of cast, just makes it even more interesting. This being SHAFT work...yes there is mindf**ker images for the most parts, but this being produced by them is a matchmade in heaven...seriously think about it for 0.0000000148 per second. Finally...the ending...wow...LA has to say that that was the part where they pulled the ultimate stinger in this anime and since it's spoilers you the viewer should watch it. Now...{{{1}}}...do you believe??????? | 9.99/10 | ||
| Koi to Senkyo to Chocolate | DONE | What can LA say about this anime???.....it's got...a harem, chocolate and love...ohh yeah and student polit- <BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!> OHHH COME ON LET LA SPEAK FOR CHOCOLATE SAKES!!!!!...eh?. Yes it's one of those animes...a harem with whatever topic you want as it's sub-topic and you know what???..the student politics was pretty interest- <BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!> OHH SHUT UP AND LISTEN TO LA!!!. Let LA continue...this anime started off as a comedy harem but soon delves into student politics and we see "some" dynamic towards both the politics and romance given..the character development...ohhhhh~ thats a biggy as the development does go through most of the main cast but hardly touches on anyone else, however for the ones that does get the development....well you'll be pleasantly surprised by the backstory AND you'll cry about it...ohhh yes...the development/drama given is extremely saddening at times. As the anime carried on...both the drama/romance and plot took hold and never held back, from the plot twists to the drama and romance was done extremely well....LA has to praise this anime for it's drama and romance though and a bit on it's plot twists as well as conjunctioning the plot twists with POLITICS...it becomes pretty interesting. The ending, well LA won't spoil (of course LA won't spoil as LA has always done) did all the elements of the drama, romance, plot and character development to a satisfying end...that's all LA is gonna say about that matter. Now if the student politics does tip you off into not watching it, then let LA propose another suggestion.....watch it for the romance. LA very much enjoyed this anime from beginning to end even if the topic at hand was mostly student politics...it excelled in it's drama and romance. Vote whether this review got you interested in this anime... Did this review get you interested in this anime?? See what LA did there hehe....this anime is about student politics and you just VOTED...eeeeerrr....ok..LA will shut up now... :P | 9/10 | ||
| Yama no Susume | DONE | A 12 episode short about a girl who goes mountaineering when she's afraid of heights. This anime short was well..LA is gonna say it...adorable in LA's eyes, it is MOE yes but it does have a storyline for the 3 minutes it gets. It does show some character development mostly from the main character overcoming her shyness and the story though brief was as LA said adorable. In all, a pretty nice anime short showing about friendship and overcoming your shyness in the most adorable way...and LA praises Yuka Iguchi's and Kana Asumi's performances as well!!!. | 9/10 | ||
| Kono Naka ni Hitori, Imouto ga Iru! | DONE | An anime where your trying to find your soulmate but your SISTER also wants in but she's keeping her identity hidden......can you say incest harem???. Though this is a bit of incest anime without the FULL ON course of action, this anime is in turn a mystery harem series...yeah, LA didn't see this coming. Now you'll all know LA's stances on incest...it can have drama but not full on fanservice, much like Nisemonogatari, however there's is something different about this one...you don't know who the sister is thus the incest part is kinda taken off UNTIL we know who the sister is, and with the mystery backdrop and 6 girls to choose from, it'll be an interesting harem series. The characters are mostly stock stereotypes of the harem kind, you know the kind one, the tsundere, the ojou etc etc. During most of the first half it was a harem...with the mystery, however during the final 3 episodes the drama kicks in and makes you keep wondering who the main character is going with AND who the mystery sister is. The mystery was decent, the fanservice...was a bit over the top but has a bit of "dignity" and the romance is.....probably the only thing going for it. In all, this anime covering three genres, mystery, harem and drama...it did quite decently, as for the ending...well...it was adorable is what LA is gonna say. | 9/10 | ||
| Mashiro-iro Symphony | DONE | ............<LA to starts to cry>...this anime...is...in Clannad STANDARDS...just some parts were just soooo heartwretching and LA felt the same way from some of the events that occurred which affected some of the characters...LA freakin' cried!!!!!!!!!!!!...shut up, LA has some empathy here, stop being so heartless. Now this anime just excels in it's romance, at first it was just a situational drama, then evolved into a serious romance story, the romance is around Clannad standards but just off a bit...a few 3 steps behind. The characters in this anime were at least somewhat diverse but once again due to the serious drama romance, character development relationship-wise is crackened up to an eleven, which also contributes to it's heart-wretching factor...seriously this anime gets to you...LA felt all fuzzy in a negative light, LA felt sooo sorry for some of the characters. Since this anime is a "one girl" arc wins anime, it is obvious that the main character and it's heroine of this anime gets the most time, yes that true but.....the build up from all that also leads to some of the haremettes having their own time and development. From all this, this anime is definitely a great recommendation for those romance drama anime fans, it's heartwretching, it has plenty of drama and romance and you'll be crying in tears of joy and sadness, though the starting episode might be a bit cliched, trust LA, the rest is brilliantly done romance. One note, the musical score for this anime is astounding...like *ahem* pardon the chessiness, like a pure white symphony... | 9.99/10 | ||
| When They Cry Series - Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni | DONE | Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni Season 1 Spirited Away by Ogres arc(Ep. 1 - 4): Paranoia and fear distilled like no other...this arc does it all as well as MOE, yes MOE and horror working together..and quite frankly they do it VERY well, namely the horror due some conversations of playful moe could also be clues to the paranoia and horror awaiting to come resulting in something shocking and utterly surprising. As LA said before the paranoia for this arc was intense as hell, the conspiracies shown not making it any better and the horror...ohhh soo much blood explaining it would cause LA to THROW UP. The ending however...is a HUGE turnaround...MY GOD... Cotton Drifting arc - (Ep. 5 - 8): MY GOD...this arc did it as well...the fear...the paranoia....the horror...the moe/romance (this time round), but here's the thing, it took a detectively approach (ohhh forgot to mention in the previous arc review, it ALSO had the detective approach) and a confusing one at that...ESPECIALLY THE ENDING. The horror is as gruesome as it sounds...no seriously...cos you wanna know what Cotton Drifting also means in Himinazawa??...Intestine WASHING...yeah scared yet??..it only gets worse from the ending giving us a scare chase of stinger..that is f**king scary. Character development does get touch upon one or two characters but with the confusion of the plot just makes the development all the more baffling and again...F**KING SCARY. Again, like the previous arc, it had both the moe/romance and horror done brilliantly...from calming school moe days to unexplained murders the next and amplified with some of the characters "lying or were they lying" to the main character...gets you paranoid. LA should also note that due to the different arc covering each character as well as the nature of this anime, these kind of confusing plot lines and small character developments are OVERLOOKED for reasons LA WILL DISCUSS in the overall series review later on...now...welcome to the Cotton Drifting festival users... Death by Curse arc - (9 - 13): WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS ARC...this is in a good way but HOW??????, LA is going to give you a bit of detail...how can you cover up a murder, but still be in two places at once?, you did the murder but victim is STILL ALIVE...<LA nods>...HOW DOES THIS WORK!!!...again, LA knows that that already has plot holes as big as someone bludgeoning you to death but seriously. This time, the arc was again paranoia for the most if not ALL of the last 2 episodes with the first 3 being moe and some serious emotional character developments. This time however it wasn't the detective style we were used to in the previous arcs...it was more like...reversing the murder cases...or the opposite of it..if you will, confusing yes but bear with LA. The thing that hooks you into this arc wasn't it paranoia...but how the he' did this all happen!?!??!?!?!, you try to find more information but it leads into more questions that are needed to be answered than answers that needs to be answered!!!. The ending...my god...intense as hell and with all the paranoia to boot...it was adrenalined fueled and again your kept wondering how this all happened...until the stinger...which made the ending...impossible to comprehend. LA isn't being naive..LA isn't, LA swears, LA is telling the truth about this arc...please...you gotta believe L-!!! <static> Killing Time arc (Ep. 14 - 15): This arc was a little different...sorta like a recap ar- NO NO NO...DON'T SKIP THIS ARC, LA IS SERIOUS...it's "kinda" recap...but it foretells more about Himinazawa's "history" as well as some VERY important details...LA thinks. It may have been 2 episodes but it still gave out more information for this series. Yes, there was character development...only to the character arc in question as well as one more character and yes it does have detective style but for this arc, was lessened to make way for some political stuff to occur...ohh yes, it went political..along with supernatural paranoia. But the biggest thing about this arc is- <static> ST- <static> -URDE- <static> SAV- <Computer goes black> Eye Opener arc (Ep. 16 - 21): THIS ARC...LA's eyes has be blinded by this much horror since MIRAI NIKKI. This being the longest arc for this first season gives out MORE HORROR GIVEN THAN ANY ARC SO FAR...moe??...that's out the window, it's all horror here folks. This arc however is the most fascinating one of the bunch though as...it's interconnected to the Cotton Drifting arc...ohhh yes, answers have finally arrived and at the same time some answers are STILL unanswered. Due to the nature of this arc, you'll find repetition but that all part of it due to it's conjunction with the Cotton Drifting arc...and due to this it clarifies SOO MANY THINGS...but then comes the horror........it's is just..just...<LA vomits out blood>...too grue- <LA coughs out more blood>...some. You want an example???...ok...how about someone being tortured by a la crucifixion and being repeatedly stabbed until they DIE...and seeing their DEAD FACE or maybe someone doing suicide by ramming a knife into their skull?...yep it's that gruesommmmm <LA vomits again>. This arc just has all the gruesome horror aspects LA couldn't believe, ALOT OF BLOOD SPLIT, NO MOE THIS TIME ROUND and paranoia still there in some respects and at same time some clarification on the plot...but not COMPLETELY, finally...the character development was brought upon quite erratically for this character arc in question...in both good and bad aspects. This arc is NOT for the weak of mind AND SOUL. Atonement arc - (Ep 22 - 26): What can LA say about Rena's arc...for one it links with the Spirited Away by Ogres arc but only slightly...the horror...it wasn't that much compared to the Eye Opener arc...but then again the murders were brutal...seriously brutal. This arc was by the by horror mystery, with some of the answers being answered...but then again just like all the rest of the other arcs...some are STILL unaswered. The plot for Rena's arc was interesting taking a curse and rectifying it into scientific answers but then again, the paranoia due to the curse makes it all the more worse on the paranoia part. What kinda tipped off this arc was it's revelation that occurred which kinda confused LA and mostly the ending...that LA will get to in the Season 1 overall review. This arc did provide some info on Rena's backstory and was pretty sad story...however that was soon dispersed due to....errrr...."that"...occurring. In all, LA was interested in this arc, but the ending was what has LA baffled... Season 1 Overall review - This season was amazingly gruesome and interesting to watch. Ok taking from the Cotton drifting arc, what this season did was make have an arc for each of the main characters along with a "reset button" like style but the "alternate timelines" are "somehow" linked...for example the Cotton Drifting arc and the Eye Opener arc, with this kind of story structure let's just say you'd think you'd get the questions first and the answers later???...well nope...you get ALL the questions and get left wondering...paranoia much!!!. This is what this season and this series does soooo well...the paranoia atmosphere and come on the horror scenes gave Mirai Nikki can run for it's money. This season was just amazing at it's storytelling from it's mystery elements, to moe moments, to it's HORROR...this season was just...bloody awesome. Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni Kai Disaster Awakening arc(Ep. 1 - 5): This arc...solved a few things the previous season did...and once again still some unanswered questions still. Instead of the all the brutality the previous season had (though it STILL had some brutal murders just offscreen), it brought about suspicions and paranoia. This arc largely focused on Rika but through the perspective of another...thus growing the suspicions. It was very interesting with some development on Rika but "vaguely" but once again extremely suspicious as to what Rika knows. The ending???.....you m***erf**kers...LA WILL KILL YA LA WILL KILL YA BRUTAL SONS OF B**CHES!?!??!?!?!...let's just say what happened very much angered LA on the perceptive of the characters actions, not that LA hated the ending, was more like it was a surprise and everything but what they did...angered LA to know end. In all, this was a suspicious arc, with one whiplash ending with some cases solved but very much more questions are very much unaswered. Massacre arc (6 - 13): This arc, this arc, THIS ARC...not only did it show most if not ALL the remaining unanswered questions but it gave light to all the entire arcs in the previous season...yeah, this is pretty much THEE spoiler warning arc out of the ENTIRE SERIES. Now it has it's intense moments, it has it's heartwarming moments...it has damming OMG MOOD SWING moments, though there were some hints that gave away it's predictability...this arc just HAD everything...yes even the horror but put it in more of a well the arc name says it all. in all, the arc was exceptionally well put together and with the Higurashi mythos...done even better and had LA on the edge of LA's seat in the most dire of scenes in this arc. Festival Accompanying arc (Ep. 14 - 24): This arc was...AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWESOME!!!. This now being the longest arc from the series and just did extremely well. LA is going to say this but through most of Kai, there wasn't much horror, just more adrenaline and boy was that adrenaline/tension some of the best parts. This arc not only solved and formed the previous season but it's execution was brilliant, throughout this entire arc, the planning, "forming the pieces" as it were and the ending...wow...somehow both satisfying and feel remorse at the same time.....yeah...Higurashi does that to you. Now to compensate for the minimal horror this arc, it was just the action that pulled it off..it just did. Now the ending as it was already stated was both satisfying and remorseful yes..but the STINGER...got LA thinking then realized and was pretty heartwarming...so yeah did a triple whooper of an ending for Higurashi there...very nicely done!. This arc...just just feels like well LA is going metaphorical speaking here...like when you bought a TV, and you get a free HOUSE. This arc was very satisfying and had a very satisfying end. LA loved it loved it loved it! Kai Overall: This season was different from it's previous for three reasons, it's format change of it's storyline, the primary focus and most importantly the minimal horror replaced with action and addenalined tension and expectations. The first two was acceptable due to the nature of what happened at the ending of the finale of the previous season, the horror swap with action was a bold yet "it makes sense to do it" move and again LA praises this season for at least tying up ALL loose ends from the previous season and giving Higurashi the proper send off to this brilliant horror story. This season...well LA just has to recommend this to anyone who was a fan of Higurashi or horror fans in general, it is one of thee most enthralling horror animes LA HAS SEEN TO DATE. Bravo to the people over at Studio DEEN who produced it and a special thanks to Chiaki Kon who directed and made this marvelous horror anime come to light.....ehhh???...what??..your asking why LA is speaking like it's the final season??...there's two more???...one's an OVA season???......................................................................................EHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!??!?!?! Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni Rei: This season this season...it has both seriousness and comedy within the same premise of Higurashi, the comedy is all good due to their in-jokes but then comes the seriousness...at that seriousness gives us not only a message but a "alternation" making some of these episodes quite interesting...seriously it's interesting, the plot twists the lore of Higurashi is even extended. In all, this season was a decent having both comedic and serious elements and is a nice scenario for those Higurashi fans. Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni Kira: This season was weird and heartwarming...weird spectrum huh???. Ok first the first 3 episodes...was a Hinamizawa take on the anime genres, that being the magical shoujo, another take on the Spirited Away arc with a perverted twist and finally a take on the harem genre, all of which comes out as a result of weirdness..seriously. Now for the final episode....was the only interesting one, that is because it's sorta linked "kinda" with the main storyline but within the past in the future...so if you think of this season was a WTF, the OP and really the premise of the rest of the episodes gives of the atmosphere of moe but looking back at the ORIGINAL season...DIFFERING SPECTRUM INDEED. LA likes this season...just stay away from the first episode... Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni Overall: This entire series is just something, from a horror paranoia of a gorey festival from its first season to it's satisfying and intense drawing of a second season to it's alternation reality of a third season to a weirdness factor and takes on differing genres within the Higurashi format of the fourth season...this series is the entire package. However now comes the praising...the first season even with it's "reset button"-ish format, still did absolutely amazing and the horror and gore was......something you shouldn't see in the dark as the horror mixed with the paranoia just puts this anime WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY up there in the horror levels, PAST MIRAI NIKKI...<LA nods>...it's that great!. Now the second season, though the horror was toned down...and seriously it was, it was compensated with the action and intensity, also due to the previous season's plot...the arcs format though lengthen, that was something that had to be done in order for the resolution, and again the resolution and ending was satisfying and great. Finally Rei and Kira seasons???...well watch them, but whether be a Higurashi fan or not, watch them as Rei does give an alternate given premise which seriously was interesting, as for Kira...well whether you were "offended" that Higurashi didn't take the "all horror" route instead of the lovey fluffy moe moe genre takes...LA still says you should watch it, it's actually pretty interesting to see the Higurashi cast in a differing genre take and as for the finale episode...watch it...it was sooo heartwarming..seriously. In all, the Higurashi series is something of horror, gore paranoia, tension, action and mystery, the supernatural mixed with politics and a conspiracy...Higurashi is an astounding horror series that will have you gripped you and hook you into the world of Higurashi and even leaves you wondering what's going to happen next and with it's paranoia, it'll have you guessing again and again, just when you think you know what will go on, Higurashi will backslap that hypothesis and smack you back with another question and even more paranoia and should be watched whether your a horror anime fan or not and once again...LA has to praise Chiaki Kon and Studio DEEN for bringing this visual novel to anime light...<LA bows down>... | Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni Season 1 Spirited Away by Ogres arc - 9/10 Cotton Drifting arc - 9.5/10 Death by Curse arc - 9.9/10 Killing Time arc - 9/10 Eye Opener arc - 11/10 Atonement arc - 9/10 Season 1 overall - 12/10 Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni Kai Disaster Awakening arc - 9.5/10 Massacre arc - 10/10 Festival Accompanying arc - 11/10 Kai Season Overall - 12/10 Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni Rei - 9/10 Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni Rei - 9/10 Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni Overall - 35/10 | ||

Animes Movies Edit
| Movie | Review | Rating |
| Interstella 5555: The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem | A Movie, based on aliens changed to a music band, there is no voices, just background music...from..DAFT PUNK. Even though it's what u call a silent movie, the background music transitions perfectly to the story at hand, also I LOVE DAFT PUNK'S MUSIC, so one up from that. This movie did lack something, but I don't know what...hmmmmmmm | 8.7/10 |
| Yu-Gi-Oh! The Movie: Pyramid of Light | The movie for this, though the storyline outlook is good, the overall content was a 50/50. The characters were ok???, the duels were somewhat epic-ish..I think, the way the plot transitioned was a bit quick though. The ending....ehhh... | 6.8/10 |
| Final Fantasy: Advent Children | It was a good movie, it was a sequel to FFVII, the fights scenes was awesome, though the story lacked just slightly. Either way, it was a good movie. | 8.8/10 |
| Final Fantasy: Spirits Within | This movie was alright, the graphics were ok and the storyline was also ok, the villain was awesome (Voiced by James Woods..who else?). The characters were..errr... memorable??. The ending...ehh.. meh. | 8.5/10 |
| Spirited Away | This movie was...crazy from the start, yet cool in a ways, a girl and her family getting offtrack, then the girl gets trapped in another realm. The storyline was good, the characters were ok as well. The ending, was a bit quick in my opinion, however all in all, good movie, no boring parts...I think... | 8.9/10 |
| Fate stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works | Now this movie is an alternative storyline towards the Fate stay Night series. Ok the beginning was a bit dull however it quickly picked up it's pace as well it's pace in general..well it became fast-paced. Towards the middle of the movie it picked up the storyline very well and the plot points itself was very entertaining. The action was great and bloody and even the plot points were very interesting as it ties to Fate stay night as well as the main protagonist. The ending itself was a tearjerker and utterly action-packed and LA praises this movie for at least tying in with Fate stay night, however the fast-pace of this movie was a bit of annoyance. In all this movie is a nice altercation to the Fate stay night series, bloody, a lot of action but errr...yeah a bit fast-pace. | 9/10 |
| Bleach: Memories of Nobody | Well my first Bleach movie review, this was a nice reprieve from the crappy Bount arcs LA watched. A confusing to be yet making sense storyline, cameos were awesome, as well as the comedy...well a bit of the comedy appeared. The characters were the same as always which was a good thing, the fighting were cool at the most. The pacing of this movie was slightly fast, however with all the fighting and storylining and semi-drama in a 90 minute movie was done smoothly-ish (due to the slight fast pacing). LA did find it intriguing the relationship between Ichigo and Senna though....just pointing it out there, though it seemed to push Rukia out of it...hmmmm LA was intrigued. On speaking of which the drama for this movie was somewhat balanced, however LA will not diverge any further as it would spoil. Hmmmm a good movie for all those Bleach fans, plus it didn't diverge into the main storyline of the anime at all. So it's ok to watch after that crappy Bount arcs!. A nice reprieve...a nice repri- Kon???..what the hell, hey! GRRRrrrr.... KKKKKkkkoooono BAKA!!!! <LA kicks Kon onto your computer screen> | 8.9/10 |
| Space Thunder Kids | Wow.....what the f**k did LA just watch for 90 minutes???....a f**king crock of s**t!?!??!?!. This is one of the WORST animated movie LA has watched why???.......BECAUSE IT MAKES NO F**KING SENSE!?!??!?!?. Ohh ohhh that isn't the worst part, this movie even has the guts to plagarise other mecha anime etc....no LA is serious, from Mazinger Z, to Transformers to F**KING TRON.....TRON!??!?!?!. Not only does this movie reuse scenes....over and over.....even f**king action scenes are f**king dull, destroyed airship??...ohhh we got ANOTHER SHOT OF THE SAME F**KING DESTROYED AIRSHIP. The characters?...yeah don't bother getting too attached as this movie practically forgets that they are there...because in nearly every 5 minutes new characters just keep popping up with the old characters practically disappearing for the rest of the movie, finally there are so many continuity errors even in the simplest scenes (even in the action scenes and character speaking scenes there are SOO MANY continuity errors). This movie f**king sucks, just sucks.....ohh god, LA just died from this movie...IT IS A CROCK OF S**T of a movie. The characters, storyline and even the action scenes are just f**king soul-crushingly HORRIBLE...this this this movie...is seriously skullf**kingly stupid. DON'T WATCH THIS CROCK OF S**T!?!??!?!?!??!??!?! ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!?!??!?!?!??! <TV Noise is heard> <Backstage> LA: LA isn't going to get those 90 minutes back right? Stormfall: Nope LA:F**K..... | 0/10 |
| Ponyo | This movie was kinda weird...even from the start...a goldfish turning into a human.....riiiiiiiiiiiiiight. Anyways there is a storyline for this however the plot development is slim...they don't develop it much, practically saying that "go with it". The characters are ok to the point however most of the characters (exclud. Ponyo and Sousuke) are kinda stupid, LA doesn't mind the voice acting that much, though Betty White and Tina Fey does a good job at it. Now in terms of the ending itself...well it kinda took the storyline from light hearted to save the world???....yeaaahhh that didn't sit well with LA. In all this is a weird movie but it still had it's good points. If you wanna go for a lighthearted but with some weird fantasy this movie would be ok for you...<LA backstage> Seriously how the he' did a goldfish become a human...bad parenting?? Sheesh.. | 5/10 |
| K-On!: The Movie | Well LA has done it.....more tea ple- HOLD ON A BIT. Ok K-On has a movie...let that sink in for a bit there... Ok?..done?...Ok then. This movie in itself though it's mainly based on an anime where highschool girls form a band where they mostly drink tea and eat cake instead of practicing music...yeah...Kyoto Animation made this...ok ok..ok fine LA will stop with it and actually start the review. This movie storyline-wise is actually kinda admirable...it's about Yui trying to give Azusa a gift before they leave of university (For those who hasn't watched K-On whatsoever leave now)...that in itself is admirable though the process throughout the movie was from waaaaaaaaaaay out there to yeah admirable. When they get to London...well LA has to say that what Kyoto Animation did (With the British accents and locations pinned down very well done), and the music played throughout the movie is ok to LA's tastes...but yeah being a light music club...yeah that's all your going to get, the comedy is K-On style once again bringing back some of the jokes from the anime and some new ones (due to them being in London). The ending itself was a bit of a heartwarming moment and the seiyuu's voicework on the characters were very well done. All in all...a nice movie with all the K-On experience, no ass-pulls, just the HTT-way as usual but in as Yui says..."in a grander scale", but how LA sees it...not in a grander scale...more like a heartwarming scale of K-On. | 8.7/10 |
| Crayon Shin-chan: The Storm Called: The Kasukabe Boys of the Evening Sun | Ahh Crayon Shin-chan series...do you guys remeber??? <Cue card saying NO!!!!>...errr right then this review is done..bye bye!!!!...ok ok fine...the Crayon Shin-chan series was a late 80's cartoon that exploded in most of Asia...and then this movie came along and practically gave LA a mindr**ing it's NOT funny. Ok for one, the storyline is ballistic beyond ALL reason and has many deus ex machina than you can shake a missle that lost it's course at. The storyline is bleak and at most stupid, even the villain is stupid as a chichuahua on cr**k. The ending ohhhhh the f**king ending is so f**king annoying that LA got a headache as to how, what and once agian HOW did this deus ex machina all of a sudden, not to mention the overall stupidity of the premise LA fainted. Now onto the movie's logic...........it has none...for a WESTERN genre of the movie's premise, there's sentai...SENTAI, as well as illogical physics that CAN NOT and SHALL not happen EVER. This movie reeks of stupidity within it's storyline and deus ex machina logic that doesn't explain ANYTHING. For a "children's movie"....why....why is it for 15 YEAR OLD'S..it should be for f**king 3 year old who's brain hasn't turned on yet. This blighted hellspawn of a deus ex machina illogical physics and stupid premise and the easiness of how the entire ordeal of the movie could have finished...is well........is what makes this movie crap. LA doesn't care if it's for ....15 year olds.....this movie is crap and before LA leaves LA will faint again for having to remember this stupid dreadful movie...Seeya guys later!!! <LA faints>... | 0.2/10 |
| Hayate the Combat Butler! Heaven is a Place on Earth | Hayate the Combat Butler Movie.......and the verdict???....it was good. Ok for one the storyline was kinda short though it was also interesting, if not for the inconsentecies...and yes there were several which caught LA's eye. Most of the characters are back even some the minor ones and two new characters....who didn't get much development..ohh and on speaking...why was Kayura wearing a Saber costume???. *Ahem*...anyways...this movie is really more of a ship tease and more relationship buildup for Nagi and Hayate than anything else...which was also good..if not for the inconsentencies screwing it all up. This movie wasn't great for Hayate the Combat Butler fans...but was still good...as some of that Hayate the Combat Butler comedy flavour as well as the returning characters was there. Flaws yes.....but still a good movie. | 8.9/10 |
| Shakugan no Shana The Movie | Ahhhh......this movie. Ok LA knows this is Shakugan no Shana...however this movie did....."reshots towards the beginning of the first season". This movie did add in extra scenes furthering adding to the anime's canon......and some parts not. LA gets it, it's a movie...they can't remake a 24 episode season into 90 minutes.....<LA looks at The Last Airbender Movie>. Where the Last Airbender made sooo many mistakes and made scenes that were completely useless...this movie didn't do this...AT ALL. This movie would be perfect for those Shakugan no Shana fans who watched the first season...as it pretty much gave the gist of the first season with NO USELESS SCENES. Due to some of the scenes were repurposed for this movie with some scenes added towards it, LA likes with the "added scenes", but yeah..it's like seeing the first season again....just repurposed. The finale was great, but predictable due to LA seeing the "first season" and all. In all.....not a bad "repurposed first season of Shakugan no Shana" Movie, it's like watching the first season but truncated but still it's good. | 8.9/10 |
| Fairy Tail: Priestess of the Phoenix | This movie.....was AWESOME. This movie not only has Fairy Tail's flavor and action, it actually has a new character which has a great backstory. Not only that but this being Fairy Tail...the action scenes are just awe inspiring to just pure awesomeness, they just are. The storyline is pretty basic until it hit the 30 minute mark where it goes crazy. Once again LA praises this movie for it's Fairy Tail flavor, meaning...it's comedy and action as well as trying to integrate the new character into the movie. The story has some pretty great plot twists...and with plot twists???...THEY HAVE EXPLANATIONS THAT MAKE SENSE...therefore...yeah great plot twists. The villains were also a threat to the main cast making the story adrenaline fueled and just awesome towards both the battle/action within the movie and towards the story. The animation for this movie may have lessened a bit compared to the anime, but LA ignored that cos yeah the story itself just ignores that. The ending???...LA isn't going to say, but LA has to say it's both sad and heartwarming ending, that'll be all <LA wipes something away from LA's eyes>. In all...this movie was just awesome, from it's characters, to it's action, to it's comedy, to it's plot twists, to it's villains, to the new character integration into the movie to it's ending. FAIRY TAIL MOVIE IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | 10/10 |
| Akira | A landmark Anime film in 1988...yeah...this was a hugely popular cult film...this review is going to get flamin'. Well for once...LA knew this anime film due to Benett the Sage...and outright LA also has the same views as him...by that by which LA means is by the plot holes this anime film has been shown not to mention...though it was a landmark anime film...LA didn't like it THAT much, oh yes the storyline (with the plot holes) was an interesting concept with most of it's execution working but it's not "THE ANIME FILM" if you know what LA means. However with the storyline and characters it was also interesting to varying degrees...but there is mindf**kery, politics, civil war and evolutionary mumbo jumbo involved so.....yeah you can see where some of the plot holes are. But with the build up of the storyline...the ending itself just makes the ending both a mindf**kery and also makes you think...yeah it is one of THOSE films. LA don't know what to say overall about this film..it may have it's problems but it also has it's high points, not to mention it was popular cult film. All LA has to say is...if you want to see some intense action and mindf**kery a bit of nostalgia of the 80's anime...watch it. | 8.8/10 |
| Full Metal Alchemist: The Sacred Star of the Milos | This movie was AWESOME!!!. This being in the Full Metal franchise, it is an awesome premise, not only that it has Full Metal flavour and lore in it, it IS A STAND ALONE MOVIE, it doesn't go to touch that much upon the Full Metal Brotherhood storyline but it has the lore of it...which being Alchemy and the Philosopher Stone. The storyline is delightful awesome, with it's awesome action scenes, to it's mystery to it's villains to it's plot TWISTS. The premise of this movie, is civil war among a city between two countries...then involve that with alchemy and the Elric Brothers and this DOES make an awesome movie. The plot twists and character development for this movie, LA has to give great credit to as they developed and "surprised" LA to no end. The characters (Ed, Alphonse etc.) still have their "identity" from this anime but the new characters do become extremely important and again drives the movie all the way through. The ending was riddled with plot twists within plot twists as well as being AWESOME and INTENSE. In all, a nice, great Full Metal Alchemist movie that does keep loyal to its Full Metal lore, the new characters were also integrated very well and presented to the storyline exceptionally well and the ending was explosive in all counts. | 10/10 |
| Heart no Kuni no Alice | This anime movie ANNOYED LA...do you know why???...BECAUSE THIS MOVIE HAD SOO MANY POINTLESS SCENES. This movie does have elements of the Alice in Wonderland themes,,,however done VERY badly, yeah we know the Queen of Hearts or White Rabbit and the iconic scenes...but there are most of them that lead NOWHERE!??!!?. The characters besides Alice, Queen and Joker are bland and uninteresting and leads down to NO plot development or character development and they lead to nothing besides wasting LA's time. Finally the worst part about this movie just moves from plot point to plot point nearly EVERY SINGLE TIME and it just doesn't connect...AT ALL and the ending itself gives us even more questions which leads...NOWHERE, this is a bad rendition of the Alice in Wonderland, yeah sure you can make an Alice in Wonderland anime movie with mindf**kery...but please MAKE IT MAKE SENSE and LA doesn't know but make it interesting!!!, bland characters, plot points or scenes dropped at the next, the ending was terrible and the movie is just a mess...either way, don't watch this movie, but if you like Alice in Wonderland"...just "try it"..but expect mindf**kery with not much of a plot... | 3/10 |
| Steamboy | A marvel of an animated movie, gorgeous design and a scientific idealism as the forefront of it's theme in the movie...that is Steamboy. What starts out as a small invention soon ensues what could be the battle of epics where both a clash of idealism and thinking towards the better of the future. This animated movie shows us not to abuse such powers and that sometimes the idealisms you have isn't always the best ones. Steamboy has overall a good starting premise but it tops off with the plot twists and engaging designs and visuals as well as the voice acting. Most of the body of the movie was awesome and a dazzle to look at even with the CGI, it worked well in this movie's favour due to it's already STEAMpunk motif. As the story came into play and the clash of idealisms grew and the added plot twists and amazing visuals, it greatly changed the dynamic of the story to something of a marvel with the adrenaline fueling to match. This movie was really an gorgeous movie to watch and with the storyline...this movie was extremely awesome to watch...then why the he' did it flop in America???????? | 9.8/10 |
| Tiger & Bunny The Movie: The Beginning | Ahhh LA has to reopen this can of superhero nonsense again. Ok this movie is...a recapped spliced new material movie, having the same material from some of it's anime episodes as well as a bit of new material. LA has seen this kind of anime movie done before *ahem* Shakugan no Shana *ahem*...but unlike Shakugan no Shana...well...it was it's premise that was....urghhhh....an advertiser's heaven and LA's annoyance, following through with the premise of Tiger & Bunny we have the same annoying characters (With LA's only exception being Dragon Kid voiced by Mariya Ise), all the others.....ehhhh. The premise for the first half being nearly the first 7 episodes of the anime was repetitive but good for newbies to the franchise but was a bit lacking even in that, the second half was actually decent in it's villain and such but then utterly failed in it's climax...seriously LA predicted it WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY before. Unlike Shakugan no Shana movie, this movie was duller due to the first half and sorta shot itself in the foot when it came to the ending. Not LA's favourite anime franchise, but this movie didn't help either...this "sequel movie" better up it's game...cos seriously from both anime and this movie, LA found this anime franchise to be cliched superhero advertisement annoyance...we'll see in it's sequel. But LA won't be chipper about this sequel either...>_> | 7.9/10 |

MANGAEdit
| Manga | Vol./Chapter | Review | Artwork | Rating |
| It's Not My Fault I'm Not Popular! | Morning 41: Because I'm Not Popular, I'll make a point system | This manga really gets to you...how???...to those "people" who had no friends for some time etc. This manga really does get to you in both funny humor, to outright breaking your heart from the main character Tomoko. Tomoko seems like your regular otaku, however...she has no friends, she looks "odd" and yeah she's otaku...something you don't see much in a character, she's like you in "real life" counterpart and you can sympathize with her..in both good and bad times. The artwork is decent enough, showing Tomoko as the odd type down to the appearance, the other characters are shown in the either ordinary type or "beautiful type" like Yuu. Now on speaking of story...it has dark humor which again...you can really sympathize with Tomoko as her expense...it is a slice of life manga with that "I want friends" aspect and "real life otaku" situations...with no SUGAR. This is both a funny manga from Tomoko's antics that leads to her own expense to heartbreaking as well...there are times where Tomoko has her heart broken and for that plus, you will sympathize with her because you have been through the same situations she has been through, it got to LA...and that in itself...makes this manga amazing...in the dark sense. | 8/10 | 9/10 |
| ElType | DONE | This manga is kind ahard to review..actually it "kinda is" as this manga is an adaptation of an MMO. Quite unlikely how this came out but this manga is pretty good in terms of source material and comedy with it. Well thing is, LA can't say much about this manga series but it has 4 chapters and it has alot of in-jokes form the MMO Elsword, either play the MMO first then read this for some laughs or leave this manga outright. However this manga series does have some tidbits on MMO's character designs and some of the backstory (that be it only Elsword). In all, if your an Elsword MMO player this manga is a good laugh of a manga and the extras are also pretty interesting...but for those who don't play Elsword...it's...ok. | 7/10 | 8/10 |
