Anime blog that focuses on Yuri and School Girl Slice of Life Anime and Editorials
Since the late 1990s, Anime has grown tremendously popular mostly due to globalization and the Internet becoming widespread. When I read Moonlitasteria’s take on the topic on whether or not Anime as a whole have become mainstream in the West, I wanted to share my own thoughts on it.

Unless you are a big Idolmaster fan, which I am, most people probably have not heard about Gravure For You. This is a bonus mini game that comes bundled with the Blu-ray packs that allows you to take pictures of idols wearing different outfits with different poses. There are nine different volumes for the main series and Cinderella Girls. With that, I will share my overall thoughts on these mini games, mainly focusing more on the Cinderella Girls Gravure For You, which introduces more features.

Yep, it’s another episodic episode. This time, the student council goes camping to search for a teenaged boy who can fly.
…
The beach party is finally here and of course, Illya can’t catch a break from being teased.
…
As expected, Executive Director Mishiro like a true vulture capitalist decides to break more dreams as she aims to emulate 765 Production’s success.
…
Initially, I did not plan to watch Dungeon ni Deai wo Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka (ダンジョンに出会いを求めるのは間違っているだろうか, lit. Is it Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?) until pictures of a main heroine, Hestia exploded on my Twitter timeline. Does it live up to the hype and the title? Not quite.

After spending time arranging things, I’m finally settled down and ready to start my first day of work, which is today. Also, I want to share a special announcement as well.
…
It wouldn’t be a Key series without a baseball episode as the student council issues a challenge with a baseball player that can control the baseball’s direction after it got thrown.
…
At last, Illya that we know and love is finally back as the girls prepare for summer birthday beach party.
…
From the start, I was right about Executive Director Mishiro taking the sleazy businesswoman route and screwing over the girls’ dreams for profits. Of course, the Producer is not going to let the girls’ dreams get broken because of her after the amount of effort he and the girls put into the project to make it successful.
…
Since I am busy settling down, I may as well share my thoughts about something that I’m curious about: Who does Anime reviews better, the Anime Blogging community or ones done by professional reviewers like Anime News Network? I have wanted to share my thoughts about this after reading an infamous review from a certain famous Anime news website.

Since I have played the piano and clarinet during my childhood up until my senior year of high school, Hibike! Euphonium instantly caught my eye when I saw it was a story of a high school concert band working with a new advisor in order to competing in nationals. Since it is Kyoto Animation, does it live up to expectations? Lets find out.
…
At last, the final main character of the group is finally revealed and she is an idol singer.
…
The girls are finally back after a few months being on hiatus. Still, I have a bad feeling about the new executive director.

For a long time, I have been a fan of magical girl shows since I enjoy seeing young girls beat up villains with magical powers. Lyrical Nanoha is somewhat different compared to other magical girl shows like Cardcaptor Sakura since it caters the older male demographic while introducing some elements from mecha anime. In fact, some people described Nanoha’s magical girl outfit as a schoolgirl outfit and a Gundam. In other words, there is a lot of action packed battles. Nanoha A’s pretty much improves on the prequel by adding another heroine to the mix and anti-villains.
While it took awhile since the DVDs were out of print due to Geneon going out of business, I finally got the chance to finish it. In addition, I’ll be covering some thoughts on the movie.

When it comes to slice of life shows, I really enjoy Iyashikei shows involving cute girls. To me, they are a nice way to make to relieve the stress from a hard day of work. Gochuumon wa Usagi desu ka（ご注文はうさぎですか, lit: Is the order a rabbit?) is one of those shows that has cute girls, but working at a café.

You might have heard from social networking sites and news sites that the President and CEO of Nintendo, Iwata Satoru has passed away this Sunday from cancer. It’s saddening for the fact that he contributed a lot to gaming and managed to turn Nintendo around by innovating the consoles, which have enjoyed a lot of success, namely the Nintendo Wii, DS and the 3DS.
With that, I will share my thoughts on his accomplishments and contributions to Nintendo and the gaming industry. Of course, I will also share my experiences with Nintendo and how I got into video games.
…
As Yu finally finds out what the student council does, Tomori shares her story to him.
…
It seems that there is one blond-haired man who works at their mother’s place that the Takanashi sisters don’t want to meet. I wonder why?
Note: The first and second episode of this show will be covered this and next week. Future episodes impressions will be done on a biweekly basis next week.

Since its airing, Shirobako gave a good glimpse of the Anime Industry on how it works and the issues surrounding it with some that are interesting to discuss about. Now, I am going to take a look at the last aspect, should you chase your passion or pursue a career that pays well?
Sure, the other four girls (Aoi, Ema, Misa and Midori) had an easier time getting their foot in their door, but there is one girl who had an extremely difficult time and her name is Sakaki Shizuka. The difficulties she faced comes at no surprise considering that the voice acting industry is very competitive and there are only so many roles to go around at a given time. Was it worth it at the end to pursue such a career? Could she have done things differently?
…
Since Cinderella Girls resumes airing next week and I want to commemorate the 10th anniversary of Idolmaster, it’s time to review the feature-length movie that showed last year.
…
After one month of waiting, I finally got my start date last week and my official offer letter. With that, it’s time to make that important announcement about the future of this blog among other things.
In other words, no more NEET life for me!
…
It has been five years since Key and PA Works worked on a production. I have to admit that I enjoyed the first episode quite a lot.
…
It took nearly four years, but it’s finally back! Apparently Aoi did not change at all.
Note: The first and second episode of this show will be covered this and next week. Future episodes impressions will be done on a weekly basis.
