Did you enjoy that Batman panel when Robin says the title above & gets slapped? Then you’ll love the last 5 minutes of this episode. Anyway, now that Maya has wrestled with ghosts, tengu,...

Maya’s one-piece, fig­ure hug­ging, zettai ryouki out­fit is one of the most annoyingly teasing outfits you’ll ever see. Maybe it’s [...]

More slaps, fake occult phenomena, daddy/mommy issues, lack of action, oversized objects, and Naruse being back to “normal” (much to a few viewers’ dismay)! But, if it makes anything better, at least JK and Smile do more than press a few buttons. Actually, Smile still just presses a few buttons, but at least he had a little more screentime. But [...] Related posts:Seikimatsu Occult Academy 2 Seikimatsu Occult Academy 5 Seikimatsu Occult Academy 4

This episode is currently being streamed on crunchyroll (C) A1 Pictures/Aniplex, TV Tokyo Perfect blend of drama and comedy. I've been enjoying this series quite a bit but I was always worried about drama aspect and the overall plot. I think many series..

Episode 07 – MAYA’s amigo – マヤの亜美���ゴ(Maya no Ami〜 go) This episode goes more in depth with Maya’s characterization, showing us parts of her unique personality that make her who she is now; a serious, occult hating (or so she claims) yandere type heroine. The flashbacks regarding Maya really show us how much she had loved the [...]

A chance meeting between Maya and Ami's father frames and sets up this seventh episode of Occult Academy - A man who remembers the occult-loving Maya of her youth who is more than a little shocked to see this "new-look" Maya who at best has no interest in matters of the occult.We too get some glimpses into Maya's past as an occult fanatic during this episode - later in the instalment via

  Hey guys, remember how the world is ending? No? Me either. Impressions: I hope that you were longing for a two episode centered Maya having a spat with Ami over her creepy as hell father who has apparently spent his life obsessively doting over Maya. At least they nailed creepy for once, in all the wrong [...]

As those of you who have been listening to the podcast know, my opinion of the recent Occult Academy episodes has been rather low. Episode 3 was just plain boring, and episode 4 completely derailed Fumiaki's character, turning him into cowardly comic relief. Now, these two episodes weren't BAD per se, but they also weren't [...]

Episode 5′s ending left us with a cliffhanger…what happened to the real Kozue?? Is she trapped in the after life dimension?! Just as I was thinking it might get a bit exciting from here, this episode reveals that she simply forgot to put back on her glasses while she was in that world. -_-” *sigh* [...]

This is coming a few days late, sorry. I got swamped with a couple of things, so I didn’t get a chance to watch episode six until Friday night. Anyway, on to my impressions! Kozue is still acting weird since she visited the afterlife. So Maya and Kuroki decide to act strange in the hopes [...]

I really should just refer to this show as Occult Academy, like everyone else in the English speaking world does. So in addition to a major breakthrough in the one-sided fight between Maya and Bunmei, we also get the return of the occult otaku, megane version of Kozue (sadly, because I loved the non-otaku version [...]

Another week with me falling behind. Here I try to keep up, by writing about Shiki episode 6, Occult Academy (Seikimatsu Occult Gakuin) episode 7, and Ookami-san to Shichinin no Nakamatachi episode 7. Before we get down to it, you might want to know that the mysterious driver of the cart has produced a chart [...]

Congratulations Maya, I’m even more of a thigh-guy than I was before meeting you. I was surprised that this episode involved so much Kozue. Much of it involved Kozue doing a ton of dumb things like burying herself in the home economics storage space and following a black cat and promptly owning herself. Fumiaki also caught a lot of hell from Maya after his actions in the previous episode. Even more hilarious is the fact that he’s too scared to ask for his phone back from Maya and as a result ...

Maya’s thighs are not only pretty but they are also strong! This episode was glorious and full to the brim with laughs. I was very pleased to see Chihiro still head-over-heels in love with Fumiaki. I thought it might have been a one-episode sort of thing but it turns out that she really has it bad for him. Speaking of love interests, Mikaze is still driving around like a madwoman and is still as adorable as ever. Seriously, no one can blame Fumiaki for falling for her. Still I’m feeling a ...

Ami is fast becoming a contender for my second favourite character in this show Another day at the school for all things occultish brings us more occult references than you can shake a fake Mothman wing at, as Maya, Ami and co. outdo themselves in their attempts to bring down Kozue’s inexplicable barrier of indifference against [...]

Summary: Fumiaki catches Ami and Maya exchanging notes about Kozue’s situation, and is insulted that Maya doesn’t think he can help.  Maya ends up coercing him into faking a spoon bending, and when he fails spectacularly, Maya uses the opportunity to talk some more smack about the occult.  Kozue agrees, but when Maya starts trashing [...]

There are a lot of little moments I want to catch, because this episode was just oodles of cuteness, humor, and (sort of) seriousness, so please excuse the mini screenshot dump. This episode has nothing to do with the main plot of finding the Nostradamus key and preventing aliens to take over, and has quite a few weird CG [...] Related posts:Seikimatsu Occult Academy 5 Seikimatsu Occult Academy 3 Seikimatsu Occult Academy 2

Episode 06 – BUNMEI’s distance – 文明の道程 (Bunmei no Michinori) Ah, this had to be one of the most episodes yet. Although I don’t really care too much for Kozue’s situation (perhaps it’s because I found her annoying last episode), this episode was excellent at developing Maya and Fumiaki’s relationship, as well as give us concrete [...]
