With the middle of the Winter Anime Season upon us, the season was mixed. There are some really great shows that I really enjoyed like Madoka Magica and Hourou Musuko. On the other hand, Gosick and Fractale left me with a weird feeling with the way the show is heading. (Image Source)

With everyone raving about Fractale despite the mess that Yamakan cause with the disruption of the simulcast, I actually enjoyed it. The first three episodes impressed me with the animation and of course, the story. (Image Source)

Since the taste testing of the Winter 2011 Anime is coming to an end, the winter season is actually decent. Out of the 15 of so series that were airing, I decided to watch Madoka, Gosick and Hourou Musuko. In addition, I also tried out Rio: Rainbow Gate, but it didn’t turn out that great. (Image Source)

In the last episode of Hourou Musuko, we are introduced to Nitori and Takatsuki, which entered middle school. They have gender identity issues, which results in wearing clothes of the opposite gender. The first episode primarily focused on Nitori, a male crosdresser that felt accepted by people in the past. Unfortunately, things don’t stay the same since his sister bullies him when he crossdressed and everyone thinks that he’s sick. In this episode, the focus is on Takatsuki and her friends… in particular on Chiba Saori, which feels seemingly upset.
…
Madoka and Sayaka finally understand what they need to be as magical girls. Unfortunately, witch hunting could be dangerous in this instance with this one witch Mami fought.
For this episode, I watched this with other people (Roghek, Sorrow-kun, kadian1364 and others) and had a pretty interesting discussion with the episode. (Image Source)

In some shows, most notably Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu, they use crossdressing as comedy. This mostly involves a male dressing as a female to make it really difficult to tell the real gender of the person. However, in Hourou Musuko (aka Wandering Son), the show takes a more serious and realistic approach. They focus on the issues of transgender people similar to what transgendered people faces and growing up through two people, Nitori and Takatsuki.

With the Gael Clan leaving their village behind, Arthur, Arawn and Rhiannon finds ships so the whole clan can leave to Albion… Unfortunately, the forces from empire captured the ships, which makes the departure impossible… or is it?

First off in the DVDs I have got, I decided to take a look at the first two episodes of Tears to Tiara, an eroge RPG game made by Aquaplus’s Leaf. Basically, it’s takes dark ages that involve an empire like Rome with various myths associated to the time period.

Once upon a time there is a Secret Santa Project hosted by Reverse Thieves in the Anime Blogosphere. This projects works by sending your application with your list of Anime you have watched and like. On the other side, a person receives your list and suggests three shows to watch and you pick one to review. Most of you have already seen the list of Anime I have suggested at my side blog, Shiori’s Diary. From the list of shows I was suggested, I decided to watch Haibane Renmei, which is a 2002 slice of life Anime made by Radix. (Image Source)

Sadly, this is the last episode of Ika Musume. Even so, there are still some really fun moments before the drama kicks in the second half.
…
The last episode is here and with the end of Kyousuke’s Life counseling from Kirino, he doesn’t expect a secret that she is hiding from him.
…
The future looks pretty grim with Milky Holmes disbanded and with Aresené making an empire of Phantom thieves. It’s the end for Yokohama, right… Or is it?
…
Kirino, Kuroneko and Saori throw a party for Kyousuke to cheer him up … except there is a surprise that he doesn’t find out until the day of the event.
…
Angel Beats was a rather unique show even though the execution was so tsundere that it was not even funny. The show was pretty interesting with girls with guns, fighting against other people and learning about the heroes’/heroines’ tragic memories. Therefore, this makes it the 8th Anime Moment in our countdown to Christmas.
…
This is the most depressing day for Milky Holmes… So sad! It seems that everyone is extremely harsh towards them that eventually lessen the team spirit down to nothing!
…
It seems that everyone wants a piece of Zakuro since she is different. Since her past is special, people are going after her with the Black Widow in charge to take her down.
…
I got caught up with several things in my life that I forgot about Zakuro. Well, a lot have happened in these two episodes regarding how the twin’s grew up, Zakuro’s mother and the spirit at Kei’s home that resulted in his fear of spirits. Some of them are petty tragic and others… really cute.
…
During my first day of the Thanksgiving break, I decided to catch up with Ookami-san. So far, it is a pretty enjoyable show, but it has plot holes in it. This primarily has to do with JC Staff’s adaption of the series since it feels rushed. (Original Image Source)
…
After Ika was abused in the last episode, she finally gets to relax and have fun a bit. Maybe not since she gets sick in the first part, but after that it became a really enjoyable and hilarious moment.
…
Like any bad day, this show seems to have its bad episode with some unbelievable, corny and silly moments. I wonder, who is going to get an Anime adaption after they wrote their first light novel? If you guess Kirino, then you are right!
