So we’re finally catching up on what’s been missing to this point! What’s left for the moment are the Working’!! and Kami Nomi and their reviews, but of course we can’t forget about the weekly Winter series as well. Here’s Episode 3 of Amagami’s second season! Rihoko’s got the best method for shutting off her [...]

This is your second chance, AIC, don’t screw it up. Now we’re on to the second afterstory arc, Rihoko’s, and here we should, no!, we must get the proper ending the arc and Rihoko deserved the first time around! While the Rihoko arc was still fun and cute and enjoyable, it lacked the GOOD END [...]

The major problem with the Rihoko’s arc from season one was the ending, it was never a romantic arc, and Rihoko unfortunately ended up in the terror known as the ‘fiend zone’. It was a disappointing arc for me, since, while Rihoko isn’t my favourite heroine, she is great fun to watch. And I hoped [...]

After finishing the Ayatsuji ark, we’re now with a fan favourite, Rihoko! Here is a video expressing my sentiments about the ending Rihoko got in the last season of Amagami (WARNING: contains strong language): I urge you to watch the video, its very funny but at the same time it captures exactly how I felt [...]

Junichi was born with pathetic nanpa talents, explaining why he was left alone on Christmas at the start of the first season. And Rihoko was naive enough to believe that Junichi wanted a serious competition on Chest+Height measurements. Even after she grew up… She still carried on believing.

With the start of the new season, there was one looming blind spot in my once again packed anime watching schedule; the second season of Amagami SS, the series pretty much touted as the un-harem for its unique way of storytelling. I’m avoiding this sequel like the plague for a few notable reasons: 1. After [...]

After Rihoko got screwed badly from the first season, I hope she gets her wish to get a happy ending because let’s face it, it’s sad to see such an innocent girl like her get “Friendzoned” forever. Continuing from her arc, it seemed that Rihoko still worries about her weight even though she looks perfectly [...]

Written by: Halfadeckshort at Sea Slugs! Anime BlogSummary: Summer classes have arrived and while the season may have changed, Rihoko’s unrequited feelings for Junichi haven’t come any closer to being returned. Cleaning the Tea Club room with Junichi affords her plenty of time to be alone with him but Junichi, living on a high carb diet and working the knots out of [...]

With Ayatsuji's story out of the way, we go back to the future for episode three of Amagami SS+ as Rihoko Sakurai gets her turn in the spotlight - an important moment for this series given how poor Rihoko was left hanging in a one-sided crush by the original series. Rejoining her story a few months later, it's clear that nothing has changed in this regard - Rihoko is now tea club president with

「桜井梨穂子編 前編 ユウグレ」 (Sakurai Rihoko-hen Zenpen -- Yuugure) "Sakurai Rihoko Chapter, First Half -- Evening" I don't approve of an overly perverted Junichi taking advantage of younger girls like we saw in Sae's chapter, but when it comes to Rihoko, I have to concede that the hornier he is the better. That is, if she has any hope of getting out of the dreaded friend zone.

Episode 03 - Well, this episode certainly didn’t come as much of a surprise. That is, we’ve always known that Junichi has always had a particular fondness for some aspects to Rihoko, even since his childhood. Anyways, ignoring the fanservice elements here, this arc will probably be the only one out of the series with [...]

Written by: Halfadeckshort at Sea Slugs! Anime BlogSummary: Junichi fears for his life after Tsukasa catches him in Noriko’s clutches behind the school building, but their resulting trip to the fateful pump shed isn’t quite as violent as he had imagined (or hoped). Recognizing Noriko’s ploy as just that, Tsukasa dismisses the encounter but chastises Junichi for being so easily duped, and [...]

Just a week after my grand resolution to watch every shitty show that airs this season, I find my writing talents defeated not by shittiness, but by mediocrity. I am, once again, dead bored of anime. Why is every anime I’m watching so mediocre? Am I getting burned out again? Why does Tim Tebow suck so much? Why [...]
