K-On!

Aug 23, 2010

-Story-With a series like K-on!, there is an over arching story, but the focus is more on the individual episodes, which I really enjoyed. There was some pretty good humor too and the adventures of the light music club were really great. K-on! kind of reminded me of Lucky Star in some ways, with its episodic feel and its light, humorous tone to it. One thing that I didn't like was sometimes when there was an episode that felt a little too simular to another one in the series, mostly the 2 episodes where they went away to a beach resort in the summer, but other than that it was pretty good.-Animation-The art...

Kiki's Delivery Service

Jun 21, 2010

-Story-For the most part the story of Kiki's Delivery service was pretty good. There were a few things that I did not like about the story. The pacing was very slow in an almost unbearable way. They seemed to drop an important plot element right in the middle of the story, which was when Kiki lost her powers, and I felt that the ending was not vey satisfactory. However I did find that the story was for the most part touching, entertaining, and it gave an important lesson. It also show a very rare conflict that is portrayed in all media forms and that is the struggle that Kiki has with her own self... See full review

Kino's Journey

Dec 29, 2009

-Story-Just as a word of forwarning, if you are looking for an anime with a developed plot that stretches through the entire series, then I would recommend you look to another anime than Kino's Journey. However, if you are looking for a charming, thought provoking anime, then you have found a great anime for that. Kino's Journey is a slow-paced anime, because the story is the only thing that doesn't move. However it does not need to have a developed plot. Kino's Journey has enough charm to suffice for the lack of developed plot. Kino's Journey can be viewed one episode at a time, and it is not entirely... See full review

Karin

Dec 17, 2009

-Story-Karin has a story line that I have never seen simular too in any other anime. It provides a new twist on the old vampire legends and I found it to be very entertaining to see a new prospective on such things. There have been animes about forbidden love before, but none have been quite like Karin. Karin has a very unique plot that grips onto you and pulls you into the world that the characters inhabit. I applaud Karin's unique plot, and its ability to tell it in a proper and entertaining fashion.-Animation-The animation in Karin did look remerkable. One of the things that really made me like the...
