Seitokai no Ichizon uses a repeated formula to structure all its episodes, and it works surprisingly well. This anime was one of the few series this Fall season that I was never behind on. I kept up with it and made sure to watch the new episode every week. It mostly consists of comedy with parodies inserted [...]

Given the shocking cliff-hanger (if you can call it that) which closed out the previous episode of Seitokai no Ichizon, you'd be forgiven for expecting Mafuyu's confession to take up at least a reasonably hefty chunk of the show's final instalment. Well, you'd be wrong - Mafuyu doesn't want to date Ken or anything, she was just letting him know. Oh... okay then, thanks for that Mafuyu.From here

Let’s be more precise. Age and knowledge do not impart perspective. It is the hidden cost of outsourcing your code and planning your primary education curriculum mainly on an elevator system of rote memorization of data and formulas. Which is to say, when Kurogane says however-many-years, he is just estimating some amount of accumulated experience. I [...]

Minnie: Even though school is over, I still suck at blogging on time. Maybe I lost my previous lightning speed? In any case, it’s not so cold and rainy over here in California anymore. I can enjoy the sun from inside the room. XD I really love this series by the way and the only [...]

Cool, watching anime where it snows while it snows IRL. What kind of idiot sits out in the snow like that? Furthermore, can you acctually get sick by sitting out like that? With that short gripe done and away with, I think that this was a really nice episode… and I would probably be able to consentrate [...]

Well, this episode is just as funny… but what made it epic is… errr… Mafuyu confesses to Ken, which is totally unexpected… You got to remember this, Mafuyu is apparently the easiest girl Ken could get… Besides from that, the episode starts with Ken (as Key-kun) talking to Yuki (Mafuyu) online and talking about his goal [...]

It may be just me, but Kuro appears to be excercising a false choice in his series-end post about Seitokai no Ichizon. Seitokai is really one of those shows that people either love it or hate it to bits, depending on how much of the jokes they can get. Overall I’d say if you have more [...]

And thus, ends the black sheep show of the season as well as one of the most enjoyable so far. Seitokai is really one of those shows that people either love it or hate it to bits, depending on how much of the jokes they can get. Overall I’d say if you have more than [...]

I died. Rankings of My Affections 1) Chizuru – You cannot resist the Mokyuu~! 2) Mafuyu – Strong second with her BL addiction and sudden confession. 3) Mika – Lovely with her hair down and she excels in math, breaking the stereotype. 4) Kurimu – Too much sugar for her childish body. Just one more episode left. A heartbreaking finish [...]

After this eleventh instalment of Seitokai no Ichizon begins with Sugisaki looking to improve himself via an online bulletin board, so we find that he surprisingly ends up with a day off sick from the student council after running up an insane temperature.Now, the thought of an entire episode without too much focus on Ken appealed to me personally, but needless to say he still somehow ended up

Ric: Yeah, I know you all probably expected Minmin to be making this post, but finals and such state otherwise, so you’ve got me this week. Yay? Seeing as I’m covering this, rather than doing one of my own shows (Yeah, big surprise there.) I’ll try something new… …WELCOME TO THE TOP KEN MOMEEEEEENTS SHOW~ (With added ~Mokyu?) Ken [...]

It was back in episode six of Seitokai no Ichizon that we saw the student council members discussing what they should do for their school's culture festival, but it's this tenth instalment which brings us to the actual festival itself.The trouble is, the intervening period seems to have taken the sheen from the previously decided Power Rangers spin-off that had been selected as a play for the

This episode can’t get any funnier, but I will highlight the funniest parts. Kurimu start with telling a tear jerking story with a mother mouse giving all her cheese to her child that made her cry since the mother mouse died. Another instance when Mafuyu tells a story when she loses her memory and forgot [...]

Minnie: I know this post is super late, but I can’t help it. This is the best Ichizon episode thus far and yet, it’s so hard to fangirl for because half of it is so serious, unlike the rest of the series. Other than that, I had a test last week and a couple of [...]

Chizuru was bullied? EVERYTHING I KNOW IS A LIE! And then what? The childhood friend only gets like 3 or 4 freaking lines at the end if the episode. How freaking lame. Oh the bit with little red riding hood is kinda funny. I still don’t understand what was going on with the very beginning of the episode [...]

An anime that dove into the sea of meta but apparently forgot to take off something heavy before. What made me watch that was this screenshot in combination with Mefloraine’s recommendation. Yes, we not only love maids, but pigs too. We are a multicultural blog. Also, screw long and analytic blog posts, I wouldn’t know why [...]

Episode 9 is a mix of serious and funny moments and focusing more on Chizuru. In the meeting, Kurimu decides that they should read books… and guess what book she chooses to read… Yep, it’s Little Red Riding Hood like it says on the cover, which pretty much shows that Kurimu is a child… *runs* Ken then [...]

Reading seems to be the order of the day for the student council's ninth instalment, as demanded by Sakurano for some vague reason or another. So, reading is exactly what the council members do, for the first half of the episode at least.Needless to say, the variety of preferences in literature on show tie in closely to the interests of the council's various characters, from Mafuyu reading Boys

  Minnie: Why, oh why, is Ichizon subbed a day later than Kimi ni Todoke now? It’s so problematic for my schedule. Luckily, it was Thanksgiving weekend for me since I’m an American and all so I do have time to finish these blog entries earlier than usual. I hope the sub group for this anime return [...]
