Toradora!

Jun 22, 2011

Story Ryuuji is about to start his 3rd year of high school and he's really excited, there's just one problem, his eyes make him look like he's always giving people dirty looks (no not sexually). This makes everyone think that he is a delinquent, even though he's not. Enter Taiga, a short girl with and even shorter temper, Ryuuji apparently picks a fight with her and gets his ass handed to him. At the end of the day he find Taiga sneaking around their homeroom, then she flips out when he gets his bag, trying to steal it form him. When he gets home he finds out why, Taiga had put a love letter in his bag... See full review

Spice and Wolf

Oct 14, 2011

Spice and Wolf was originally a light novel series by Isuna Hasekura, who wrote… umm really nothing else, and it was animated by IMAGIN who did stuff such as… nothing hmmm, with voices like Brian Palencia and J. Michael Tatum. So this show has a writer known for nothing else with an animation studio known for…nothing else, other than a few in-between stuff, so how is this show SOOO FREAKING AWESOME.   Story Kraft Lawrence is a traveling merchant in medieval Europe, even if it’s never actually referred to as such, as he travels around trading and selling just trying to get by...

Puella Magi Madoka Magica

Jul 1, 2011

Magical, cheesy, cute, where all words I would have used to describe Madoka Magica, if I had only watched the first one or two episodes. Yet after watching the whole thing I would use words like, bleak, tragic, depressing, maybe even, one of the best anime ever.   Story Madoka Mgaica is about a girl named Madoka, she’s your normal cute middle school student, but one day she meets a little dog, cat, Digimon…thing, named Kyubey, who has the power to change girls into magical girls. He does this so that they can go and fight witches, they meet Mami, another magical girl, and Homura, a... See full review

Kanon (2006)

Jun 22, 2011

I should probably say this first, this review will have more Clannad references then you can shake a stick at, because both anime are very similar, but also very different so there's that. Story Yuuichi Aizawa has just moved back to an old snowy town up in the mountains that he used to visit when he was a kid. Oddly enough, he barely remembers anything about what happened there seven years ago, and he starts meeting all these girls he once knew, and they help him figure out what is going on and what his lost memories are. So it's a harem with some supernatural stuff thrown in for giggles, so it's your... See full review

Gosick

      Story The story takes place in 1924 in a fake European country, where our main character Kujo, a Japanese transfer student, has just arrived at an elite academy. But because of his black hair and eyes people call his “The black Reaper” much to his dismay everyone is afraid. So one day Kujo is in the library when he meets Victorique, a short girl with long blond hair, who spends her days reading and solving mysteries for her detective brother Grevil. Hmmmm, a misunderstood boy everyone thinks is a punk, a short tsundere whose father is an asshole, and there... See full review

Durarara!!

Jun 18, 2011

Ahhhh Durarara, lets get this out of the way first, no this is not Baccano, and really it tries to be (I think there was a Baccano reference every other episode, and even a crossover), but the fact that it's trying to be its older brother doesn't hinder it that much. One of the main reasons this show get compared to Baccano is that it not only was done by the some studio, but it also just happens to based on the light novels that were written by the same guy who wrote the Baccano light novels. Now with that out of the way on with the review.   Story Durarara is set in the city of Ikebukuro, where we... See full review

Clannad After Story

Jul 13, 2011

Alright let me get this out of the way quick, Clannad (AS in particular) is my favorite anime EVER. So yes, this review may not be all as objective as I like to think the rest of my reviews are, but oh well. This anime had really been on my mind as of late for some reason, so I thought I might as well do a review, and without further delay.   Story If you’ve seen the original you already know the basics, but for everyone else. Tomoya is a high school punk, who don’t play by the rules, one day while walking to school he sees a girl talking to herself, when she randomly blurts out the... See full review
