Samurai Harem… with a title like that you might be thinking “Another harem anime? No thanks!” Well, yeah… this is another harem anime. The staple and arguably overused tropes are present in this series – everything from the main character walking in on a girl changing to him “accidentally” pushing in on a girl’s chest. Even [...] Related posts:2009 in Review: Top 5 Honorable Mentions Anime Review: To Love-Ru (Collection 1: Episodes 1-13) Anime Review: Afro Samurai

So my rule lately has been that if I can’t write about it when it happens, it’s put into the catch up posts. This news though is something that I felt was important enough to get its own post. Early this morning, Sentai/Section 23 released a press release announcing their May schedule [...]

Apparently, ADV is not as dead as it seemed (via). And it was proven yet again that the all-grabbing, first-look Funimation monster is not as powerful as we were lead to believe.

Glo the Legend recently described Asu no Yoichi as having “no god damn fcking cons.” Should you trust him? I can’t think of a reason not to, seeing as how he wrote a 100% truthful post about my trip to England. Calling Asu no Yoichi the BEST HAREM ANIME EVER may seem heretical—until you actually take [...]

Yes, this is a complete filler post, not that I really need a filler post, considering that I write 500 posts a day, and should actually probably cut down on writing posts. Whatever bitch, I got something to say, and I ain’t gonna delay. Suck my dick here’s a post: Asu no Yoichi! This show is awesome, [...]

And so Asu no Yoichi! has ended some time ago. With all my episodics done for it, it is now high time to take a look back at what the series has given us over the winter anime season. If you missed the episodics, you can find them under the category for Asu no Yoichi! [...]

Now we clearly get the meaning of the title - the Yoichi of tomorrow is certainly going to be stronger in soul and heart than the one of today. From the way he speaks of the family being the most important part of happiness, and the way he faces off against Saginomiya for the sake [...]

Kiddie Ibuki pwns teenage Ayame. What surprised me more about this episode than anything else was the fact that they never even tried to bring back Ibuki’s memory. Maybe it was expectation that led me to that surprise perhaps. I mean, one could almost say that this episode was almost canonical. It was a good lead-in [...]

Well, this episode certainly surprised me. And yes I know I am weeks late. The anime itself has already ended some time ago, but yeah, give me a break with all the things going on. I myself have yet to finish the episode, since I do each episodic before I watch the next. Some Ibuki to [...]

I wasn’t expecting much from this series at all really. Right away it seemed obvious it was going to be full of random pointless ecchi moments. While that itself isn’t bad, in fact if you realize the show is nothing more than ecchi then you won’t expect much from the series. Still, as far as [...]

After finishing Asu no Yoichi, I am forced to admit that it is indeed a far superior anime than Toradora. It accomplished in twelve episodes what Toradora was unable to do in twenty-five and one crappy SOS parody. I know what you are thinking. If Asu no Yoichi! was so awesomotastic, why wasn’t I blogging about [...]

[ Episode 9: Fly to the Fiery Summer Festival! ] Oh god, the beginning 10 seconds is such a damn freaking tease. Damn you, AIC. Even more Ayame and Washizu! So finally Washizu understands Ayame’s liking towards the samurai (main character power). He also finally shouts out his love for “Ikaruga-san” but Ayame misreads it and thinks [...]

[ Episode 8: Sorry About the Other Time ] An episode devoted to two blondies means only verbal confrontation and also a ton of physical violence. Ayame and Washizu sure have common interests. If they can fight over the last bottle of their favorite drink, they can fight about nearly anything, I assume. Evil customers are [...]

[ Episode 7: Half-Exposed Bikini, One Piece ] Yes, the inevitable beach episode. A staple for these types of anime. There’s always fun in the sun, playing in the water and sand, and best of all, ladies exposing more skin than usual, what’s not to like? Yeah, okay, you’ve got Yoichi in his loincloth, but that [...]

[ Episode 6: Wa-san is Coming! ] A whole episode dedicated to a delinquent and cronie Torigaya? You know it. After several episodes, it’s funny how Wa-san just now was able to give back Ibuki’s handkerchief. Of courses, he returns it in the most casual way possible: inside his love interest’s locker. Oh, but it just [...]
