Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day

Oct 25, 2011

I will try to be as logical as I can with this review, but allow me to say first and foremost, this is an emotional series. People who cannot get wrapped up in that torrent of melodrama and angst, probably won't enjoy the series that much. Then again, I'm not usually that kind of man, and I did fall in love with the bittersweet and tender moments presented in Ano Hi Mita Hana no Namae o Boku0tachi wa Mada Shiranai (AnoHana).

Angel Beats!

Sep 5, 2011

I don't understand why people are so harsh to Angel Beats. I believe it is easily the best series I've watched all year. At only 13 episodes, it becomes something special, and leaves us before we grow sick of it. I understand I haven't yet seen The Melcholy of Haruhi-chan, but does having a similar title make a series any less special? That's just being obviously biased :[

Story: 9 out of 10
The story of Angel Beats is a collection of brilliant elements that lead to me loving the series. To start things off, let's begin where the anime did, as Otonashi woke up in a strange world with a... See full review
