Ikoku Meiro no Croisèe – Episode 1 – Yune’s Arrival (First Impressions)

July 5, 2011 by Chikorita157 3 Comments
No matter how much you look at Yune, she is simply adorable...

It’s finally start of the Summer 2011 Anime Season and thus I take a look at the first and last of the summer shows I possibly be watching. That show is Ikoku Meiro no Croisèe and as you expected already, it’s full of cuteness…

Yes, I have gotten into Fate/Stay Night if you noticed and Saber is hot! :p

Since Summer Anime Season starts in a few weeks, I probably want to share my thoughts on the Anime Season.  In addition, I will share some real life stuff on what I will be planning in the coming weeks. (Image Credit: matsuryuu)

Taste Test Part I – A Channel

April 9, 2011 by Chikorita157 1 Comment
It's not easy being this short! Jealousy ensues.

A Channel is yet another “girls doing cute things” show, but just with different girls and a loli that makes things rather interesting.

Taste Test Part I – Ore-tachi ni Tsubasa wa Nai

April 6, 2011 by Chikorita157 Leave a Comment
So many girls to choose...

With a show like Ore-tachi ni Tsubasa wa Nai that is based off a Visual Novel by Navel, you can foresee what will happen in this episode. If you guess gratuitous amounts of panty shots and fanservice, then you are correct!

Taste Test Part I – Hanasaku Iroha

April 6, 2011 by Chikorita157 2 Comments
She looks very adorable without trying.

After the rather disappointing production of Angel Beats, things can only get better for PA Works. When I have watched the first episode of Hanasaku Iroha, the show has already exceeded my expectations.

Spring 2011 Preview and Future Plans

March 30, 2011 by Chikorita157 7 Comments
Madoka will finish during Spring... and after the troubles are solved, cake will be served!

Since the Spring 2011 Anime Season will start in about a week, I have a hard time deciding what to watch besides Nichijou considering that there are so many shows airing during the season.

In addition, I will reveal future plans regarding the blog and real life stuff. (Image Source)

Fractale – First Impressions (Episodes 1-3)

February 6, 2011 by Chikorita157 4 Comments

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)

Taste Test Part I – Hourou Musuko (Wandering Son)

January 16, 2011 by Chikorita157 7 Comments
Unfortunately, things can't stay the same forever...

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.

Taste Test Part I-II – Rio: Rainbow Gate! (SCCSAV Livewatch)

January 12, 2011 by Chikorita157 6 Comments
This is probably one of the cutest ferrets I seen that is not in a Magical Girl show...

Many people in the blogosphere have been talking about Rio: Rainbow Gate, one of the shows some consider to be “so bad it’s good”. Do I agree with them? Not really since I watched the show with Roghek from the SCCSAV over Skype. Overall, my impressions about the show went south. The show was so bad it was terrible because there are so many fundamental problems with it, which I want to share.

Just to be clear, I am criticizing the show based on the two episodes I have seen, not bashing it.

Taste Test Part I – Gosick

January 11, 2011 by Chikorita157 2 Comments

It seems that this year winter season has so many shows with lolis that I couldn’t keep count. Besides Madoka, there is Gosick, which is a mystery story that involves a Gothic Lolita girl and an ordinary boy solving various mysteries. However, it’s not just any ordinary case… It’s the really difficult ones! (Image Source)

Taste Test Part I – Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica

January 8, 2011 by Chikorita157 4 Comments
This is the right way to wake up a sleepy person!

Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica (also known as Puella Magi Modoka Magica in Latin) has to be one of most anticipated Magical Girl in the 2011 Winter Season. This show has some similarities with Nanoha since Akiyuki Shinbo directs this show. Subsequently I enjoyed the show and wish to share my thoughts about the first episode.

Aria the Animation – Episodes 1 and 2 – First Impressions

January 5, 2011 by Chikorita157 8 Comments

Many have suggested me to watch this show ever since I have watched K-ON!!. That series was Aria, a scientific fiction slice of life, which had some similarities to the mentioned title minus the excess moe.  Nevertheless, I enjoyed the first two episodes with its nice animation, music and a interesting story. Therefore, I have to share my thoughts about Aria the Animation, the first season of the series. (Image Source)

Since all of the Fall Anime has finally ended, there is the Winter 2011 Season that will premiere early next week. Its pretty surprising to see a whole year fly pass by with 2011 in the horizon after two days. Therefore, I will discuss my thoughts on the shows I will potentially watch and cover.

Also, Melative provides all information for the shows I will possibly watch. (Image Source)

Tears to Tiara – Episode 1 & 2 – First Impressions

December 28, 2010 by Chikorita157 Leave a Comment

Arthur goes crazy over his sister seducing the Demon King. Great Moment by the way...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.

Amagami SS – Episode 17 – Rihoko Sakurai’s Arc Part I – The Unlucky Childhood Friend

She looks so innocent... but so guilty for breaking her diet.

Well it’s a new arc and the focus is now on Rihoko for whom she is a very unlucky childhood friend of Junichi. Unfortunately, Rihoko’s love towards Junichi seems to be unrequited even though they are best friends. I wonder why?

Obligatory Three Episode Taste Test – Otome Youkai Zakuro

October 26, 2010 by Chikorita157 7 Comments
One of the many instances where Zakuro goes tsun tsun on the Wussy Kei.

Since I have dropped Yosuga no Sora because it was too provocative for my tastes, I was able to pick up another show to fill the emptiness. Aorii from Major Arcana suggested that I should watch Otome Youkai Zakuro, which is a fantasy and alternative history kind of show.  To be frank, I have read her editorial on it and I found the show rather interesting, so I decided to try it out myself…

Taste Test Part I – Tantei Opera Milky Holmes

October 12, 2010 by Chikorita157 Leave a Comment
They are still cute...

Stupid Tantei Opera Milky Holmes! It’s not like I want to watch you or anything… but the cuteness pulled me in!

Yeah, I am pretty tsundere when it comes to anime and this is no exception. Tantei Opera Milky Holmes is a magical girl detective story with extremely cute girls fighting against the villains. At the same time, the first episode was pretty brutal since they lost their powers 9 minutes into the first episode. After they lost their powers, things kind of went in a downward spiral.

Taste Test Part I – Shinryaku! Ika Musume

October 7, 2010 by Chikorita157 Leave a Comment
Now everyone wants a piece of her...

It is a known fact that human beings neglect the majestic part of Mother Nature… the sea. The sea provides us the food, transportation, recreation and natural resources. Sadly, the mistreatment of the sea from man-made disasters from overfishing and countless oil spill disasters like the Deepwater Horizon have driven this one Squid Girl into extreme dissatisfaction. As a result, she wants world domination so that human beings will never mistreat the sea.

The problem is… nobody really takes her seriously because she looks like a child…

Taste Test Part I – Yosuga no Sora

October 5, 2010 by Chikorita157 11 Comments
Twin Incest! It feels so wrong that it's a guilty pleasure.

Well, this is probably one of the strangest visual novel adaptations I ever saw so far. Yosuga no Sora is simply crazy on what they throw at the viewers in the first episode… We have this pretty white hair guy, a sister of the same age, an already made harem and of course the risque scenes1 of some girl doing you know what and some twin incest. Because of the rather mature content, It makes me feel so guilty when I watch this show that it could even be considered a guilty pleasure 2, more so than Kampfer ever will be.

Taste Test Part I – Ore No Imouto Ga Konna Ni Kawaii Wake Ga Nai

October 4, 2010 by Chikorita157 2 Comments
Holy crap?! She owns that much eroge games?

This is probably the 4th most popular Anime that everyone is talking about this season. Ore No Imouto Ga Konna Ni Kawaii Wake Ga Nai (or My Little Sister Can’t Be This Cute) takes on the Otaku culture which was focused vaguely in Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu. Instead of a boy meets girl kind of thing, it has an older brother and younger sister!

Taste Test Part I – MM!

October 2, 2010 by Chikorita157 Leave a Comment
What kind of stuff is she on?

Perhaps bile fascination1 had driven me to watch anime that some people love to hate. If you read the show’s description, the show gives you a thought about something rather perverted. That thing is Sadomasochism, a fetish that is all about getting pleasure from giving/receiving pain. This is the central them of MM since the male lead is such a masochist.

  1. What else would attract me to this show… Cute girls? ↩
