(c) kinkFor some weird reason, I get addicted to Zettai Karen Children. After I finished the 51 episodes, I quickly jumped to the manga and has been following the series ever since. So naturally I'm ecstatic with the release of this OVA titled Changing Love! Take Back the Stolen Future? It was released on July 16, 2010 and it took me this long to watch it because of the same reason why I am not up to date at all with my summer anime: life.The OVA takes place a few years after the Children last appearance in anime so they are more well developed. If you read the manga then you are happy to notice that even the PANDRA children has joined the Children at their school which mean, Yuri/Feather/Phantom Daughter is around too.The OVA started with Minamoto seemingly hijacked and attacked the BABEL organization. Then he went and kidnapped the Children. I don't need to be a genius to figure out that this is all a fluke. Minamoto would never do something like that unless someone (read: Yuri/Feather/Phantom Daughter) is manipulating and controlling him which exactly what's going on.Needless to say I am pissed off with the development. I hate Yuri/Feather/Phantom Daughter from the very beginning so my reaction is a no surprised. What is more upsetting though is the fact that Minamoto can be so damn vulnerable. He let Yuri/Feather/Phantom Daughter kissed him and took control of his body and mind! Grrr... Grow some balls, Minamoto.Suddenly Kaoru is no longer the queen but Yuri/Feather/Phantom Daughter is? Where the fuck is Hyoubu? He should straightens this shit up. Only Kaoru can be the queen for the espers. That's why she's so awesome. And just like the dark hero he is, Hyoubu appeared to console and coach the broken-hearted Kaoru.Of course in the end all things went back to normal as they thwarted Yuri/Feather/Phantom Daughter's plan.The story line for this OVA might be meh but the production team went to great length to make it clear in this OVA of the canon pairing of Kaoru and Minamoto so I'm a happy camper about that. I've been rooting for them even when Kaoru acted like an old man and sneaked around to see the girls pantsu. I approved.(c) akakokorozashiThe art and animation haven't differed much from the first season. They still wear unusual villain clothes and shit like that. I found it rather funny actually since the series looks like it was targeted for the younger children/teen but the manga has that "mature" tag to it. The irony.Aya Hirano is still the seiyuu for Kaoru so obviously she does a good job at it. For the first time I though Yuuichi Nakamura sounds mighty sexy. I guess the plot kinda acquired Minamoto to have a sexy voice. I'm definitely going to remember him now, along with Tomokazu Sugita and Jun Fukuyama. The OP and ED still have that quality to it that will only remind you of the series without even have to second guess. I like the BGM during Minamoto and Hyoubu encounter before the real fight unfortunately I have no idea who sang it or what is the title of that song. It was pretty cool.You can probably deduced of the character that I like the most (Kaoru) to my least favorite character (Yuri/Feather/Phantom Daughter) so I am not going to repeat myself here.All and all, I like this OVA. It wasn't spectacular but it is something that will probably lead to second season of this series. I'll look forward to that. Let's make it official that I am now is gay for Kaoru as well(c) kouda tomohiroart & animatio 6/10story 7/10characters 8/10sound 7/10enjoyment 8/10overall 7/10

For some reason I keep thinking that this should have been used as a major story arc in the second season, rather than a one-episode OVA. Which isn't to say that I don't like it, because come on, it's Zettai Karen Children. It's a great series which I've placed on my Rewatch list; no mean [...]

  And unsurprisingly, it drives him insane. I most certainly did not forget that this came out last week and let it slip under my radar. No, sir. Thank you, Sterling. Impressions: Actually though, this was a little disappointing, and certainly not helped by the random yelling for the interstitial being "Second Season’s Starting!" followed by "Just kidding." [...]

  Dayum, Shiho. Non-Impressions: Shiho should really need a license if she’s going to pack those legs. This wasn’t really much, mostly just recap of some of the opening stories and the parts where the Children ‘got along’ (if you can count the Death Note parody as such. It was only 15 minutes, and about 10 of [...]

While I dropped it last year out of boredom (or maybe because I had been burned out of SynergySP stuff through the first season of Hayate no Gotoku!), Zettai Karen Children is now tons of fun again this summer. With HnG’s second season going down a different (and so much better) path, it’s now [...]

Greetings loyal readers. Sorry for neglecting my blog for so long, but a combination of school work and computer problems kept me from blogging. But now that it’s summer and I have more time, I plan to be writing more than usual. Since there isn’t much that looks interesting this summer, I will use this [...]

    Now what’ll I do with my Sunday mornings? Impressions: No ending expected, and none really achieved, aside from leaving things open for a post-graduation second season. While it certainly would have been great to see the future esper war, this has always really been more presented like a western show, with that kind of stuff just [...]

  I’m a Toys R Us kid. Impressions: Well, that was a little underwhelming. The whole big conflict was just Minamoto thinking that he had a good life as a kid, and getting a little pissy at the others for wanting him to give it up. Then a little "believe in us" and that was the end [...]

  Leave it to Kyosuke to mindwipe an entire elementary school just to dick with Minamoto. Impressions: I suppose it was a decent episode, but it felt a little lackluster for being the show’s finale arc. Then again, Syobai has ZKC marked as ending in March, with more episodes in April, so maybe it’s not ending. [...]

  Does Patty look like an adult Punie to anybody else? Impressions: They clearly had a large chunk of extra money in the budget this week because the production was even better than normal. Not all that much of it was actually spent on the fights in the episode, but I’m not sure there were too [...]

  Future, present, past, present, future, present! A trip through time indeed. Impressions: A rather interesting episode, not so much for the content as the questions it raises about the future that everybody is trying to avoid. We’ve yet to ever see any glimpse of a future where Shiho or Aoi turn to the dark side, [...]

  And an absolutely lovely Valentine’s Day. Impressions: What a surprisingly good episode. Takeshi was certainly nowhere near strong enough to threaten Kaoru, but I think this is really the first time they’ve actually done a little Uncle Ben story. Great power and great responsibility etc etc. Alright, so… not quite the same thing as "stop [...]
