It looks like Seiya’s 30-yen idea was not a good one since the park is now broke! What is he going to do now?

Tamako Love Story – Movie Review

October 29, 2014 by Chikorita157 1 Comment

Artist: 空凪

During the winter of 2013, Kyoto Animation aired Tamako Market, which is a slice of life show that focused on a girl named Kitashirakawa Tamako who is enthusiastic about a marketplace and of course, mochi. While I have enjoyed the show for what it is, it was slightly disappointing at the same time since Mochizou couldn’t gather enough courage to confess his feelings towards Tamako. Not to mention, most of the show was spent mostly on her friends or Dera.

As the title suggest, Tamako Love Story finally addresses the shortcomings of the television series that viewers have been wondering all along: Will Mochizou finally have the guts to confess his love towards Tamako and will she accept it?

Amagi Brilliant Park – Episode 4 – Cooperation, not Demands!

While seeing Isuzu use her musket can be hilarious, using it to demand things is taking it a bit too far.

It seems that Isuzu is a bit too demanding to the point where the cast members start to dislike her. I wonder why she acts this way.

Chou Megami Shinkoku Noire Gekishin Black Heart – Final Review

With the success of the Neptune franchise, Idea Factory and Compile Heart has been expanding the franchise by making various spinoff games for the Playstation Vita. While I was disappointed with Neptune Idol PP, I had high hopes for Chou Megami Shinkoku Noire Gekishin Black Heart since it was a full-featured strategy RPG with Noire as the main heroine. Does it live up to expectations? Let’s find out.

Is Learning Japanese Really that Easy? It Depends…

It has been nearly three years since I began teaching myself Japanese. Sure, it’s not an easy process as it took a good amount of effort, practice to start understanding. So far, I can understand a good amount with a dictionary.

Just the last past week, a post by 10bit has caught my attention as he thinks that learning Japanese is a lot easier than everyone thinks. However, I have mixed feelings about his post not because he didn’t really list any starting points, but for the fact that not everyone will have the same experience.

The Glass Shatters – Why Glasslip is the Most Disappointing PA Works Show Yet

October 9, 2014 by Chikorita157 11 Comments

I admit that PA Works (Progressive Animation Works) is one of my favorite studios besides Kyoto Animation not because of the high production values, but rather the types of shows they come out. The studio is more known for its original productions, some that I actually enjoyed.

After watching Glasslip, I was deeply disappointed and wondered to my self, why did it fail? It’s odd considering that they played it safe with a premise that they can’t possibly mess it up. Ultimately, we are proven wrong.
