Reviews and previews
So after watching Jigoku Shoujo, I figured the Japanese idea of "horror" is probably a lot different from my idea of it. Some parts of Jigoku Shoujo were actually pretty funny, so I expected to either be scared during this anime or laugh at it. Did I do either? You know the drill, read on to find out!
First off, the results of the last poll, Anime Fillers: Yay or nay?
| Yay – as long as something meaningful happens | 60% | ( 3 ) | |
| Yay – I watch every episode! | 40% | ( 2 ) | |
| Nay – fillers are junk |  |
0% | ( 0 ) |
Wow, apparently you guys really like fillers. I guess since the people in the forum are really hardcore about anime, this wasn’t too surprising of an outcome. We still need more people over there though! Join in on the fun!
Okay, so here’s the new poll for the semi-week. If you watched
Hantsuki, or read my review, you’re quite aware that Rika could die!
Here’s a poll for you guys: What kind of ending should Hantsuki have?
Now, I dunno if Hantsuki the manga has already answered this, so
please, no spoilers!!! Please! Anyway, vote on how you think the anime
should end.
I personally think Rika should die and Yuuichi should live. I mean,
it’d be such a cop-out if she lives after the whole setup of her being
weak and soon to die, y’know? Call me evil, but this would be the best
ending. I know she’s mad at me for writing that. Just look at her…
Go over to the anime forums and cast your vote!
Gyagu Manga Biyori is an anime that actually came out February 2005. Back then, I had read about it and was hoping it would get subbed, because I dig the gag manga anime genre. Hits like "Sexy Commando Gaiden: Sugoiyo!! Masarusan" and "Boboboubo Boubobo" have a special place in my heart. Did this gag anime live up to my strict expectations? Read on to find out:
In my Winter 2006 anime preview, I noted that this would probably be one of the more dramatic anime of the season. Hanbun no Tsuki ga Noboru Sora (let’s call it Hantsuki for short) is a love story about two star-crossed (maybe) lovers. Ok, so it’s dramatic, but does that make it good? Read on to find out!
Hmmm, is it a little too late for Christmas anime reviews? I think not! When I saw Itsudatte My Santa listed on anidb, I thought, "awesome, another Ken Akamatsu anime!" Did Itsudatte My Santa really live up to the expectations that I attached to the Ken Akamatsu name? Read on to find out!
Kashimashi: Girl Meets Girl. The title says it all! This anime had me at "Girl Meets Girl!" Seriously though, after reading the description of this anime, I thought it would be a low quality ero-game type dissapointment. The character designs looked good, but would the plot actually work out? Read on to find out!
Magikano (or Majikano?) seems like a pretty typical anime on the outside. It just looks like yet another magical harem where a few of the girls just happen to be the guy’s sisters. Taking a closer look though, I think Magikano has a lot of things going for it that set it apart from other anime coming out this season.
Wow, I just got my first comment spam! This is a milestone of sorts for my little anime blog. I actually joked about wanting to get comment spam on Anime on My Mind. Maybe the spammers listened…
Anyway, the odd thing was that the spam didn’t even make any sense! It wasn’t like, "check out my site!" or anything like that. Why don’t I just include the text (minus the links of course):
Great post! I’m looking forward for more. Rape Soldier is very good Pair, Compute Mistery is very good Opponents when Pair is Slot it will Make Grass, Player will Gnome unconditionally when Mistery Percieve Pair Lose
I mean, WTF? Rape Soldier? At first I thought that could have been some anime, but then it was apparent that akismet really picked up the comment spam. Maybe I can collect these, and when I have enough, I can write a really crazy book!
If you’re having trouble with these kind of comments, I really do urge you to install the akismet plugin. That is, if you’re on wordpress.
Before I saw this episode, I only knew two things about Kagihime Monogatari Eikyuu Alice Rinbukyoku. For one, it has a really long name (let’s call it Kagihime from now on)! I also knew that certain characters would have bunny ears. After seeing the first episode, can I honestly recommend watching more of this anime? Read on to find out!
Fate/stay night is probably one of the most anticipated anime of the new season. There’s been quite a bit of hype leading up to it, and now that the first episode is out, we can all find out whether the series lives up to the hype. Or can we?
