Anton's review of Another (anime)
My plan to write a three-part Thought Digest for this series was destroyed by a train-wreck barrage of tough-arse examinations. This fact still does not stop me from continuing to watch this great work of an anime. Crisp visuals and mood-setting sound? Double check. Great narration? Check. Masterpiece character interactions? …
Guilty Crown Overall Review
Guilty Crown is hard to beat in having me describe my overall impressions of it. It had been one roller-coaster ride, but this ride would make you end up with a long face. It’s also anime’s equivalent of Mac OS X Lion or Windows Vista; too much hype, “eye-candy”, BIG …
First and Last Impressions: Gokujo.
OOOOOOOOOOOHH BOOOOOOOOOOOOOYY. Did I just let my animal nature rule over my mind? I just picked this show becuase of some screenshots noting it to have a “good” slice-of-life comedy mixed with ecchi themes and gags. I would not say “My body wasn’t ready!” over this show. Why? I expected …
Narcissu Review: Road Trip to Final Destination
I am not driven to play Visual Novels as often as Anton or Kuro. With all that being the lack of patience, having to do ceremonies of steps just to get a fan translated work and the numerous other peculiars that I just won’t bother doing. Upon hearing Glen’s take on …
Bartender Review: Never Look at Alcohol the Same Way Again
For me, Bars are like dens for socialites and people wanting to get laid. That’s what they are today, with how life is this fast pace forward crunching it is. But this Anime made me look otherwise. The best Anime I had watch in recent and will forever be in …
Review: WORKING!! Season 2
Among all of slice-of-life shows that aired during the year 2010, Working!! was perhaps the most unique among them. It was about the daily lives of different restaurant workers, with their varying respective quirks. It wasn’t as popular like… say, K-ON!! but it gained a loyal following and got good …
Review: Megane Na Kanojo OVA
Well, this review might be considered late but it took me months to acquire a copy of this charmingly cute, heartwarming OVA. Even if I’m openly liking girls-with-glasses, it doesn’t mean my favour for this title is influenced by bias. I do have some gripes on this but like on …
8 of 12 Anime Blogging: Philippines in My Anime
This almost fell out of my radar, but it has something that would like to talk bout. Blade anime, which is Mad house’s way of financing itself by making crappy animes to Americans. Tried to tie in something that is special to my heart: having an arc set in my …
6 of 12 Anime Blogging: Kore Wa Zombie Desu Ka
I rarely look back in my timeline specially if I’m dealing with anime that failed in its delivery. One such is this Winter Anime, Kore Wa Zombie Desu Ka? Which started quite strong as a comical parody of harem shows, yet, destroys itself by delivering a poorly directed and paced …
1 of 12 Days of Anime Blogging: Ano Hana
This is my first attempt in doing this trend of posting something related to anime for the next ten days before the holidays. This will also double as my year-end reflection on the Animes that aired during the 4 seasons. For my first post, I’ll be talking about AnoHana, why …
