How do you know an anime sucks? When it’s only the fourth episode and they already do a swimsuit episode. Can’t get anymore desperate than that. . It’s been a while since I youtubed a song in my post. And I’m feeling a little GAR today. So here’s something to get your head banging. Have I mentioned I love [...]

How did this fail? I watched the special opener episode, and the real first episode… the anime didn’t grab me. Then, even its major boosters gave up, and the competition made sure Modern Magic won’t get a slot. The DB entry says “older gen annoying, stupid”. Aroduc finished and panned it. BTW: I mostly just hope that [...]

This series had definitely been very odd. It started off with some very weird time stuff going on, seemingly going back and forth between the present and the past, both of which contained the main character as the same age. Still, once it got past the confusion it turned out to be pretty nice. It [...]

What a disappointment and anti-climax. We reach the end of the series and for a show that had so much potential at the beginning, this turned out to be dreadful. A lot of wasted potential here, it had a decent setting and plot that could have gotten it going, but too often and too much [...]

Sometimes, these series appear that aren’t supposed to be good… and yet they are. Series as Asagiri no Miko and Wagaya no Oinarisama, who have the most generic premises, somehow end up being a very enjoyable ride from start to finish in their own way. The same goes with Yoku Wakaru Gendai Mahou. And this [...]

How many times I have said this now!? Yes…again…not a whole lot happens in this episode. -_- BUT, I didn’t mind so much cos almost the whole episode is on Misa!! She’s so cool and top it off with Naba-chan’s voice, PERFECT!! Oh and there were others in the episode – just a short appearance. Seriously [...]

The story is getting frustrating. I know it’s not important but we’re up to episode 6 now and we’re only up to the opening scene where the two girls are fighting that French mage!! For *BEEP* sake!! MOVE ON!! Koyomi for whatever reason travels back in time to 6 yrs ago where she meets the [...]

Well I was somewhat unimpressed with the conclusion to the past arc of sorts. The combat was a bit boring, although it was nice to see Misa doing some herself. But the combat wasn’t particularly interesting, just throwing swords around and making blue ball barriers. Also, large chunks of the fight sequence [...]

Yoku Wakaru Gendai Mahou is the kind of show I would have ordinarily dropped before I probably would have even finished the first episode, and while I can't say I regret watching the first 5 episodes, I also can't exactly give you an inspirational reason to do the same. YokuWaka does a couple of things to try and set itself apart, but it's inherent average-ness just makes those minute uniquenesses..... confounding.

Can’t get enough misa Post is a bit late but I had to gush about the awesomeness that was Sunday’s episode of Saki and I went to a Yankees game last night. Episode wasn’t exactly exciting either, more like a set-up for next week. I was thinking of making some Mikuru jokes here, but it just [...]
