Pocket Monsters XY – The Archdijinni of the Rings: Hoopa – Movie Review

It has been a while since I reviewed a Pocket Monsters Movie. To me, the movies went downhill since the ninth movie. While I haven’t watched the Pocket Monsters Anime for a long time, I heard that the Pocket Monsters X and Y anime was well received.

As for the movies, not so much, especially with the eighteenth movie. That movie is Pocket Monsters XY The Archdijinni of the Rings: Hoopa. It bombed badly since it made only 1.35 billion yen until the nineteenth movie managed to do even worse. It’s surprising how the Pocket Monsters X and Y anime was well received, yet the movies during the series airing performed poorly.  We’ll find the reasons why as I share my thoughts on this movie.

At last, here is the movie that everyone is waiting for as Muse’s finishes their journey as school idols as they go on a surprise trip to the big apple to help promote the future of Love Live. (This is a review of the Japanese copy of the Blu-ray with English Subtitles.)

Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha A’s – Final and Movie Review

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.

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.

Tamako Love Story – Movie Review

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?

K-ON! The Movie – Movie Review

July 28, 2012 by chikorita157 Leave a Comment

Since the London Summer Olympics began just a few days ago, I feel the need to finally watch the K-ON movie since it takes place in the same city. As hinted in the Episode 27 special, it’s quite obvious that the Light Music Club will go on a Graduation Trip and it actually happened. (Image Source)

Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha Movie 1st – Movie Review

July 22, 2011 by chikorita157 2 Comments

First in the summer vacation marathon, I have watched the Nanoha movie (most namely, Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha The Movie 1st), which focused on the events involving Nanoha’s befriending of Fate in the original season. Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha has been a very enjoyable magical girl series to me as it differs to the traditional genre. It caters to the moe crowd while appealing to others with a rather complex magic system (with some elements of mecha), males using magic and of course yuri. Of course, the first season of Nanoha is not entirely flawless since the animation was lackluster and some important details were left unexplained until the movie came out…

5 Centimeters Per Second – Final Review

September 14, 2010 by chikorita157 12 Comments



If you wondering about the title… That is how fast a cherry blossom petal falls.

Several people in the blogosphere, namely Flak and Kimaguresan have suggested me to watch this slice of life/romance/drama movie called 5 Centimeters Per Second. Considering that I have not watched a movie from Makoto Shinkai, which is a well-known director who directed movies that are bittersweet and appealing to the eye, I had high expectations. After watching the whole movie, I was pretty impressed even though the story did not a happy ending.

Pocket Monsters – Giratina and the Sky’s Bouquet Shaymin Movie Review

June 10, 2010 by chikorita157 2 Comments

This Pokemon was eating mah Pancakes!!! Grrrrr!

It’s been nearly three years since I last touched the Pokemon Anime and a lot have changed. However, I don’t intend to go back to watching Pokemon since I want to spend time watching good Anime. I felt that the Pokemon Anime was going into the pool of mediocrity because it took them several years to have the show in wide screen and there is so many filler episodes… It’s just as bad as the worst offender of filler episode, which I will not name.

I have been holding off this review since I was busy on other things like college and working on programming projects that I completely forgot about it. Since I have the time, I will review it in my view after watching several good (and bad) Anime.
