Review on R-15

Image
This anime was produced by AIC and directed by Munenori Nawa. An anime about a boy named Akutagawa Taketo who attends Inspiration Academy Private High School. Students at this school are labeled at spectacular hands-on something they are into it. Taketo is a skilled writer, but not at just about any genre, for him is known to be a genius novelist for erotic fiction. How weird and bizarre it is but unfortunately that is true. While having many people look down at him for this talent there are some who still consider him to be a great writer and even admired him for his work. Nevertheless of these views Taketo still aims to be known or recognized as the world's greatest writer. And surely he'll make his dream of him come true. This anime for me to be honest is just an ordinary harem with ecchi genred anime. But still is has different plot that suits magnificently to the graphics. Not to mention the graphics are cool as it is. So viewers who likes ecchi stuffs wil...

Review on Gunparade March

This anime is all about life and mecha. The story revolves around a boy named Atsushi Hayami and a girl named Mai Shibamura. These two have completely different personalities. For one, Hayami is very simple and very cautious and whenever he pilots his mecha. On the other hand Shibamura is cold, very militaristic in nature. Let's think of her as a lesbo but she isn't. The two are millitary school students who are assigned to fight off monsters called Genjyu in a posion gas-polluted Earth. This anime isn't just anime all about mecha action, it's also about knowing how to build a relationship with different people, no matter how difficult it may be. It's also about overcoming your difference and learning how to work with each other in such ways. The mecha fights from this anime is good there are sans lasers making it more realistic.

Review on Ouran High Host Club

Image
This anime creation is one of the few anime I have watched several times and that I can even watch this one even more again, and again. The enjoyment of a lifetime that an otaku should have at least watched! If you haven't watched this anime yet, then it's the time for you to watch this my dear animeholic.This anime has this dearest anime heroine that may shook your bones and cracks it all the time. It contains lots of funny scenes that can make you guffaw like hell and takes out the breath in you.

So she goes to this outrageous rich school as a special scholar, and was mistakenly as a boy. But things gets interesting when she entered the Music Room with elegant groups of men. The Host Club! Where she met these beautiful men that'll turn her life upside down..   So viewers!! you've better get in touch with...

Review on Asura Cryin`

Image
This anime Asura Cryin` is about mecha, fantasy, and romance these genres work together to create an interesting plot for this anime. Asura Cryin's may have started a little slow because if the little amount of action they had in the first episodes, it should be picked up. It is quite interesting for this anime to use human being to power up or to gain control on their mechas and fight magical beings. I like this anime so because even thought the genre is based on mecha and fantasy it has a little everything. Comedy, romance, action, and little ecchi and all for one anime I say. The characters are uniquely introduced. There are magicians, a sexy cyborg, an assassin and even more. Asura Cryin' is an anime suitable for every otaku who loves random events. The graphics is good and there is the amazing plot that is waiting for you viewers so I gladly recommend this anime for starters. Overall score 9/10: With great plot comes great anime.

This anime revolves around Kouya Marino a kid who inherited the gear of his late brother who died mastering on how to use his gear. Now Marino is on the quest to get stronger and be the number 1 in terms of using his Gear. the Garuda Eagle. Crush Gear turbo is one of those Toy based anime that i really loved when i was still a kid. Watching this anime as a kid and as a teen is actually different to my taste. Initially, the anime has a good story line and the characters are also presented well. The feeling of discontent i have about this anime, maybe is because that the main target for this anime are little boys and girls who loved pl aying these toy...

This anime is really special for those anime followers who loves Food and Eating. this animation is a bit interesting in a way that for me it seems like it is in the boundary of being a cooking show and a bit of a fighting themed anime. The animation and art for this anime is surprisingly pleasing to the eye. The good thing about this anime is that they managed ...

Review on Rosario + Vampire

Image
This anime series aired on Jan. 3, 2008 to March 27, 2008 produced by Gonzo, and FUNimation Entertainment. Well, in my opinion although this series is more on ecchi scenes it also has potential to attract female viewers due to its wide range of fanservice and also romance-themed genre it provides. Thought that's more of a comment if we're discussing about judging things based on gender. Tsukune Aono finds himself accepted in a school where youkai or supernatural beings disguised as humans. Fearing for his life, he makes an attempt to flee yet ends up meeting Moka Akashiya, a beautiful girl who is vampire. Despite the fact that she is also one of the monsters, Tsukune decides to stay at the academy, refusing to let any of the people around him know that he is a mere human only. Sooner he find out that the rosary around Moka's neck is what's hiding her true nature and that if removed, her vampire ego or whatsoever automatically takes over. This anime series ...

And then I went through in wanting to see it, for every episode left me in minding situations. A company filled with mystery is suspected to be behind most all of thee incidents, having access to what appears to be near-invincible human weapon called "Phantom". This company is known as Inferno. A young japanese tourist came across Phantom's recent kill, and in a desperate attempt to escape, this tourist hides in a building, hoping not to be seen. However, a phantom named Ein captured the young man and brain-washed him, giving him a new name; Zwei. Now, he works as a puppet of Inferno. If Zwei wishes to survive, he must fight in order to do so, and maybe one day he'll find out his lost memories. This anime is little interesting but with so many boring scenes which makes you n...

Review on Hatenkou Yugi

This anime aired on Jan. 4, 2008 to March 7, 2008 with adventure, comedy and romance genre. Some people can't wait to get out of the the house, while others unfortunately, get kicked out of their own homes. Thought there are various reasons for such, to be told by a parent to get out and see the world seems pretty good, right? Rahzel would never have dreamed of getting kicked out of her house by her father and be told to see the world. But as she journeys on, she won't be alone not after seeing acquainted with a young man called Alzeido who is out to get his vengeance on his father's murderer.

Review on Tsuki wa Higashi ni Hi wa Nishi ni

Image
This anime may probably boy-meets-girl but only with a twist. Naoki Kazumi thought his life was just ordinary after a fateful event that killed his parents five years ago. Now living with his aunt, uncle and cousin Matsuri, had forgotten about his youth. One day while he was takig nap in afternoon a girl fell in him from the sky. The red-haired girl introduced herself as Mikoto and she mistakenly thinks of Naoki as her younger brother. It turns out that Mikoto was from the future where many people suffer from an incurable disease and that the time where Naoki exist serves as a sanctuary for these people to escape the plague. Mikoto went back in time after she discovered that her brother Yuusuke was taken to Naoki's time and decided to go after him. A time-travel themed show I always think of several possibilities based on the plot. I think that the death of Naoki's parents and his loss of memory were all attributed to time travel. It's for us to kn...

After a long day, Hideki found a persecom thrown in the garbage and brought it home. Hideki managed to activate the persecom and named it chi.

To be blunt, i am really confused about this anime. The plot of the anime is actually quite interesting and it had potential. but i am not sure if this anime could go head to head against anime with the same genre. Let me start with the "good" part. The animation of the series is really good. Watching the series actually  gives you a bit of thrill and suspens...
