Kaede never fails to impress.
Kaede never fails to impress.

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 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.

Kantai Collection ~KanColle~ (Anime) – Final Review

June 25, 2015 by Chikorita157 3 Comments
Artist: わたあめ
Artist: わたあめ

Back in 2013, Kadokawa Games decided to create a game called Kantai Collection (艦隊これくしょん, lit: Fleet Collection), which is a free to play browser game. It is basically a card battle game that involves war ships personified as cute girls.

While the game aimed to appeal to war ship otakus, the franchise’s popularity sprung up because of the fandom and the voice actresses who are involved with the project. The rest was history. The game was so popular that Kadokawa and DMM (who hosts the game) had to put in place a lottery in place in order to play the game, besides the geographical restriction.

Given how popular Kantai Collection is, eventually they announced an anime production for this franchise. While there are some viewers that complained about some aspects of the show, especially since most of the western viewers could not play the game without jumping through several hoops, what are my thoughts on the show? That is what I’m set out to do.
