My Unpopular Anime and Gaming Opinions

March 8, 2014 by chikorita157 9 Comments

A few weeks back, Yumeka shared her unpopular Anime opinions which got me thinking, what are my unpopular opinions? Since I don’t necessarily have 10 unpopular Anime opinions to share, I will also cover some video game related stuff too. (Image Source)

The Best and Worst of 2012 Anime

December 29, 2012 by chikorita157 6 Comments

Artist: naruse

As 2012 finally comes to an end, I felt that this year is rather subdued for Anime. Although there were some Anime that received some rave reviews that I didn’t watch, I was still satisfied by what I have already watched. Not only that, I only dropped one show this year compared to two in 2011. Still, there were some disappointments, which I want to go over.

For now, I will list my top whatever lists of best Anime in 2012 along with some disappointing/worst ones. (Image Source)

Reasons for Dropping AKB0048 and Thoughts about Eastern Asian Idols (Updated)

June 11, 2012 by chikorita157 6 Comments

From the look of things, the reasons I dropped AKB0048 didn’t satisfy some people since I was full of rage after watching the second episode. After taking some time to let it settle in, I would like to share some thoughts on why I dropped it and my thoughts about the idol craze in East Asia that is going on in the past few years. (Image Source)

Note: Added additional thoughts regarding Idol Production Companies taking full control of the girls’ lives. (Originally published May 19, 2012)

Spring 2012 – Midseason Impressions

May 21, 2012 by chikorita157 Leave a Comment

In memory of Shirley (and all the other women Urobuchi killed off)

It seems like the whole spring season is going by so quickly. Since we are at the halfway point, I may as well share my impressions of all the Spring Anime I’m watching so far. (Image Source)

My thoughts exactly...

I fear this day… Now, I can never see idols in the same way thanks to this anime.

December 17, 2011 by chikorita157 5 Comments


アニメの12日 – 一部

Christmas is almost here and to celebrate it, I’m taking a look back at the first 6 notable events that grabbed my attention or surprised me.  This includes Fractale, Ore-tachi ni Tsubasa wa Nai, Hanasaku Iroha, Working Second Season, A Channel and Gosick.

If you don’t know what this project is all about, I highly suggest checking out the prelude. (Image Source)

Best of Spring 2011 Anime Music

August 12, 2011 by chikorita157 12 Comments

During the Fall 2010 Anime Season, I have taken a brief look of some the opening and ending songs I heard from the shows I were watching. Since I only covered a few shows last winter like Madoka Magica, Hourou Musuko and Fractale (Gosick is left out since the ending theme single came out in the spring), I decided not to focus on it. However, I have published a full review on Madoka Magica’s opening song, “Connect” at Anime Instrumentality and you should check it out!

For the Spring 2011 Season, there was a good number of opening and ending songs I liked. Out of the songs that released and listened to during spring, I liked “secret base ~kimi ga kureta mono~” (Ai Kayano, Haruka Tomatsu, Saori Hayami),  “Scarlet Knight” (Nana Mizuki), “Hazy” (sphere), “Scarlet Ballet” (May’n), and “Spread Wings” (Aki Misato). For each song, I will share my thoughts about them briefly. (Image Source)

Dropped: Ore-tachi ni Tsubasa wa Nai – Thanks but no thanks…

June 7, 2011 by chikorita157 8 Comments

After watching 8 episodes of Ore-tachi ni Tsubasa wa Nai, I am really crazy to continue watching this show this far while everyone else in the blogosphere stopped at episode 2 or even late as episode 6. The reason I kept watching is the cute girls in the show. However, when somebody asked why I am still watching this with the addition of a rather disturbing scene in Episode 8, I said enough is enough. I’m finally dropping this show once and for all!

Ore-tachi ni Tsubasa wa Nai – Episode 7 – *Insert Overused Cake Joke Here*

May 31, 2011 by chikorita157 5 Comments

Do not try this at home with your cakes!

The cake is a lie! Garuda (also known as Karura) wasted them on his so-called war against mankind!

I know… the cake jokes from Portal are hammered to death by now, but I just cannot resist.
