Shinryaku! Ika Musume – Episode 7 – Ika’s Bad Day…

November 19, 2010 by Chikorita157 Leave a Comment
Ika is now used as a circus animal! Oh the humanity!

As shown in the last episode, Ika is a genius at math. Sadly, Ika seemed to lose her person to prey on. In addition, the American alien scientist takes her away since Ika messed up. I guess Ika is having a really bad day with this.

Moe and an Argument against Genre Elitist – Much more than just Cuteness

November 18, 2010 by Chikorita157 16 Comments
Unfortunately, it is... but it does not have to be like that.

After watching Ore no Imouto Episode 7 and the past incidents with a certain commenter on my blog started posting strongly biased comments against the moe genre. Well in reality, most anime fans don’t really care about the moe but care about the characters, story, animation and/or music.  Also, the strong elitist hatred towards a genre could be destructive for the whole Anime Fandom.

As demonstrated in the arguments between Kirino and Kuroneko over the kind of shows they watch, it shows the obsessive side of the fandom. Nevertheless, genre elitism is harsher in real life with bashing of titles, making fun of/bullying fans of a genre, have strong feelings of hate and saying that anime is dying because of it. Moe seems to get so much unnecessary blame to the point that I feel the need to defend the genre even though I am completely neutral to the genre.

Ore no Imouto – Episode 7 – Brief Thoughts

November 16, 2010 by Chikorita157 3 Comments


Kirino: O(≧∇≦)O Kyousuke: (・_・?) Kuroneko:( ̄へ ̄)Saori: ( ̄ー ̄)

Well, it’s a good episode, but I don’t want to spoil what I have to say about my upcoming editorial. I’ll give you some hints: it deals with the certain faction of the Anime Fandom/Blogosphere and genre elitist haters.

Tantei Opera Milky Holmes – Episode 6 – Sherlock Can’t Be This Cute as a Princess

November 14, 2010 by Chikorita157 Leave a Comment
Now I can't tell which girl is which. (Hint: Sherlock is on the left)

In this incredible episode of Tantei Opera Milky Holmes, Sherlock was quite surprised to meet someone with the same appearance, which is Princess Claris of Marlo. However, Claris desires to live a life as a normal girl so she doesn’t have to marry the man that she does not like…

Shinryaku! Ika Musume – Episode 6 – Ika a Math Genius

November 11, 2010 by Chikorita157 11 Comments
What the heck is this crap?

With the intelligence that Ika has, I think she can solve the entire world’s engineering problems out there like building a better and safer oil-drilling platform. Then again, maybe not since she wants to take over the human race for the horrible things they did…

Amagami SS – Episode 18 – Junichi… Make Love with Rihoko!!

November 10, 2010 by Chikorita157 Leave a Comment
I expected that this would happen to Rihoko

Rihoko is now committed to her diet. As part of her effort to lose weight, she is exercising on a skating rank to burn off some calories so she can lose weight and win over Junichi’s heart. I still have a gut feeling this is not going to work.

Ore no Imouto – Episode 6 – Unlucky Childhood Friend and Normalcy

November 9, 2010 by Chikorita157 1 Comment
Come on, make love with my granddaughter!

After the chaos from the last episode regarding Kirino’s best friend, Ayase, the spotlight is taken off from Kirino and we are back to normalcy. Kyousuke stays over Manami’s house to get ready for Halloween, which is a very pointless holiday in my opinion. They don’t know that her grandfather has some silly schemes up his sleeves to have their granddaughter go out with Kyousuke.

You disgrace me, Taro!

Unlike the wacky Dragonball Z parody, which was shown in the last episode, this episode has less of that and more of the mother and older sister who seem to be extremely close to Taro that he gets annoyed…

As the Fall 2010 heads to its midpoint, its time to take a look of some Anime Music I decided to try out. Besides the MM! opening single I reviewed at Anime Instrumentality Blog, the other singles I tried out was pretty good. This is why I would like to share my brief thoughts about them. [1.

November 4, 2010 by Chikorita157 Leave a Comment
Zakuro found some good uses for high-heeled shoes, stepping on Kei's foot.

In this episode, the focus is now on the twins (Hozuki and Bonbori) and Ganruyuu. They go to a ball to try and defeat the mysterious woman that murders people in this mission.

A hostage stituation that went terribly wrong!

I neglected Ika-chan since I was so occupied with Zakuro. Also, my main laptop, Fujibayashi Kyou broke while I was at college. Since I got a replacement last night, I decided to watch the two episodes I have left sitting.

November 1, 2010 by Chikorita157 10 Comments
Why I am still playing this game?

In the last episode, Ayase ran into Kirino when the crew heads home from the Summer Comiket. Unfortunately, Ayase feels a bit concerned about Kirino from a feeling that Kirino was hiding something from her. It ultimately opens the Pandora’s box of trouble that causes their friendship to break apart temporarily.

They are here for the gold... which looks so stereotypical.

Guest Review: MM! OP Single Help – Review

October 31, 2010 by Chikorita157


When you have an Anime that has masochism written all over it, you can expect that the songs would be a masochistic experience…

From listening to the songs, Taketatsu Ayana is a really bad singer. This makes Hirano Aya’s and Toyosaki Aki’s singing sound 2x better! It’s like mixing two of the horrible pop singers (Lady Gaga and Katy Perry) and have a song that is a pile of crap.

Then again, it was not horrible enough to make the song unlistenable. It had some redeeming factors if you take out the vocals. I think this single could be considered as “So Bad Its Good.” Yes, the singing from Ayana is horrible and the electronica is out of place in the second track, but it was slightly enjoyable as receiving pleasure from masochism. I just can’t take my eyes off of it unlike Sae’s Ending from Amagami SS, which had nothing redeemable whatsoever.

So, enjoy this masochistic review of this single… and it’s just in time for Halloween! I will probably make another review on “Moon Signal” in a few weeks.

October 30, 2010 by Chikorita157 4 Comments
Prepared to be bewitched... Oh wait, wrong show!

Well, this is probably the wackiest episode I ever seen since it has parodies of other anime, and perverted men and girls. It also has an extremely smart, cute loli girl who develops a machine that turns people into perverts FOR SCIENCE!

She looks so innocent... but so guilty for breaking her diet.

Well it’s a new arc and the focus is now on Rihoko for whom she is a very unlucky childhood friend of Junichi. Unfortunately, Rihoko’s love towards Junichi seems to be unrequited even though they are best friends. I wonder why?

October 28, 2010 by Chikorita157 2 Comments
He is a really lucky man

Like the last episode of Otome Youkai Zakuro, this episode focuses mainly on Susukihotaru and Riken over the investigation of the dubious sword obtained by a shopkeeper.  The sword has some significance in revealing Susukihotaru’s hidden power inside of her that allows the revealing of a person’s select memories from objects.

Amagami SS – Nanasaki’s Arc Final Review

October 27, 2010 by Chikorita157 3 Comments

It has been awhile since I watched Amagami SS. The reason I fell behind because I was busy with the fall anime. This is why I did not focus on writing about Nanasaki Ai’s arc in great detail, as I originally wanted to. Since I have some free time today, I took the time to finish it. After I finished the remaining two episodes in her arc, I was very disappointed for reasons I am going to explain. [1. Original Image]

Obligatory Three Episode Taste Test – Otome Youkai Zakuro

October 26, 2010 by Chikorita157 7 Comments
One of the many instances where Zakuro goes tsun tsun on the Wussy Kei.

Since I have dropped Yosuga no Sora because it was too provocative for my tastes, I was able to pick up another show to fill the emptiness. Aorii from Major Arcana suggested that I should watch Otome Youkai Zakuro, which is a fantasy and alternative history kind of show.  To be frank, I have read her editorial on it and I found the show rather interesting, so I decided to try it out myself…

Ore no Imouto – Episode 4 – Why so Serious about the Fanservice?

October 25, 2010 by Chikorita157 17 Comments
Kyousuke RAEGQUITs a sister fighting game.

Unlike the last three episodes, some people in the anime blogosphere went gaga over this one fanservice scene. I wondered about it when I watched this episode. Fortunately, I did not get the same reaction from that scene. I probably did not react to it as much since I saw the comedy value in it, not the naughty side of things.
