Lucky Star Review


Lucky Star is an anime adaptation to the four panel comic strip by Kagami Yoshimizu.  The anime adaptation produced a total of 24 episode and was produced by kyoto animation around April 8 to September 16, 2007. The comical strip talks about the daily life of Konata Izumi and her friends. The setting of the animation is based on the city of Kasukabe in Saitama Prefecture. Izumi is a laid back Japanese high school girl who is very small for her age. Izumi is a self proclaimed otaku both in anime/manga and in games. She usually asks her friends to go with her to an anime convention to buy new mangas and tankobons ( Japaneses Volumes for manga ). Izumi is somehwat the typical type of otaku who is what we call an addict since she mostly prioritize games and mangas instead of her studies which lead her to copy assignments and ask help from her friends.


Lucky Star is one of my favorite comical skit type of anime. The story it self is really not that special since it talks about the story of the day to day life of an otaku. (which i can see myself doing as well) The way the anime was brought up is really simple. Even if the anime's main characters are all girl, it didn't defeat the purpose of the anime giving a bit of a gist on how otakus live their lives. The comedic style of approach this anime is showing gives off a really smooth aura that's really comforting to watch. The plots and twists the story have is really fun to watch. The way they present the characters is really something. even if most of the casts are females, Boys can still enjoy the humor. And guess what, The characters are well diverse in a way that they have their own selling point. Anime lovers and Otakus will surely love watching this anime... If you want to get a rest from watching hardcore animes then this is one of the best option for you.

I'll rate this anime 9/10 some of the side characters and sub main characters are sometimes taken for granted.

Review on Kuragehime

Image
This anime is a 12-episode anime produced by FUNimation Entertainment, Brains Base, Asmik Ace Entertainment. Kuragehime's storyline revolves around the daily life of Kurashita Tsukimi, a girl who loves jellyfish, living together with her geek friends at Amamizukan apartment complex wherein no boys are allowed. This anime's characters are kind who show their beauty not with their good looks but with what they really are, and how they love the way they look and become true to what they really love. The story lines are pretty cool for this anime going out in different directions and a t once point keep intersecting with one another. Kuragehime's characters are rather unique from the typical anime style drawing that we are used to some example are the afro-styled girl in the apartment. Kuragehime's characters, and the awesome storym and the simple but pretty art and the enticing music come together and create an anime that stands out among others of its kind. ...

In an unknown city, organized crime and Orgmen have flooded the land. With nowhere to escape and no one else to go to, a young girl named Mika commits herself to the revival of a great sweeper, Brandon Heat, now obtaining the alias "Beyond the Grave". With the entire city under the hands of Harry MacDowel, Beyond the Grave must put an end to the tyranny of Harry and his Organization. But can Brandon Heat point same gun at the person he once was his bestfriend? This anime is a 26 episode anime with crimes, sci-fi,actions and drama. Well to tell the you the truth just for me the first episode is kinda boring but don't be fooled by it because the other sequence will leave you hanging so catch up on our main character as he venture and deal with his amity. Though there are times where in the pacing of anime is slow and dead silence takes over we were pleased by the progsession of the story line and how you will be able to get to know each character and their r...
