I’m getting my blog transferred to become independent and I’ll be leaving Ani.me and will no longer be a reader/viewer for this site. A reason is that this blog system is very limited and this blog is really hard to find and problems within this community . So, good bye Ani.me (at least for now)!

This episode came out yesterday and I wasn’t able to watch because I was playing Battlefield Play4Free. Anyway, I love this episode! It was touching like the original series episodes. The long wait for this 2nd episode is actually worth the wait. The second episode is basically about a beach competition (don’t worry, it’s not fans service). Well, that’s enough for me talking and in case you didn’t watch it yet and if you like the series, this a must watch. By the way, the graphics got better.
Conclusion: Worth the long wait, nice short story and graphics/design got better

So based on the info I found or heard so far, there’s going to be a bunch of features in this game of course. Here’s the known features that might be coming:
TGS demo had two difficulty modes. Easy is a one button (A only) rhythm game. Normal is two buttons (A and B). Hatsune dances while you play (which is already featured on Hatsune Miku games). Time button presses will be through pop up clocks with As and Bs replacing numbers. A hand moves clockwise to the beat mode will be added. Press notes when the hand moves over them. Clear one clock full of notes and another pops up. Each one takes up about half of the screen. If you hit a note on time, a tiny 3D explosion will occur.
The game will also feature “AR Concerts” which means you can have your own Vocaloid concerts in your own home out in reality (if you don’t know what AR Cards are, they are cards that allow the character to pop out through your 3DS). Other than those features that might be coming for the 3DS, information on the game is still little. More info will be posted.

Wow, this series is quite interesting. There is a lot of action and conflicts. Though, it’s weird how I missed the very first episode. Anyway, this episode has like lots of action even though most anime series don’t have much action on the second episode (excluding Blood-C but it got kinda boring). I find it amusing. There’s a bunch of “ambushes” and monsters in this episode and it’s kinda like a fantasy RPG game based setting. I do highly recommend you to watch/find this episode.
Conclusion: Lots of nice action scenes and story is doing okay so far.

Will To Love-Ru season 3 ever come out? Nobody really knows… Even though Season 2 (Motto To Love-Ru Trouble) mostly covered the manga, a new on-going manga called To Love-Ru Darkness is when season 3 might be based on. If you did so happen to hear rumors that To Love-Ru Darkness manga series does not exist, do not listen to those. Instead, just search it up online for the scans or something (I’m not allowed to mention Anime or Manga sites due to Ani.me’s policy/rules). Anyway, season 3 might be based on this manga but there’s a chance that it would not because the manga series actually has a “dark” storyline. There are some uncensored parts and dark plots and twists or turns in the manga. But, fortunately; Ru lights things up in this manga and bypasses those dark plots somehow. Also and of course; that there are some new characters introduced.
This is old but if you didn’t hear; Anime New Network reported that a online Japanese newspaper called Mantan Web mentioned that “Saki Hasemi and Kentaro Yabuki’s To Love-Ru Trouble Darkness manga spinoff has an anime adaptation planned”. But, it got removed and later; the official Twitter account for To Love-Ru anime said that this is a “mistake”. This was reported on Feb. 27-28, 2011. But, there are still high hopes and rumors that To Love-Ru Season 3 will come out eventually. We will have to keep our fingers crossed.
If you already had seen both seasons of the anime and the main manga, once again; look for the To-Love Ru Darkness manga series in case that you did not yet. It’s a must read if you’re a fan of this series.

Okay, this episode is quite interesting and a bit cheesy. It’s one of those “Magical Girls” inspired things. It’s not bad. Most of the plot is mostly a bunch of villains that threaten the main characters but when they speak, it’s quite funny like one of those typical villain acting in a cheesy funny way. In other words, this is one of those action random episodes.This current episode episode is “okay” to watch but I do not recommend it to you exactly.
Conclusion: Typical “Magical Girls” series but it’s funny to watch.
Note: I do remember watching the first episode and I didn’t have time back then to post an impression for it.
By SparkNorkx 7 months, 3 weeks ago.
So the episode that recently came out for the 2nd season of Shinryaku!? Ika Musume or Shinryaku! Ika Musume or whatever it is called. The series is basically about a random “squid” girl (that isn’t human or is she?) that does random adventures which is not exactly my type of anime. This current episode’s theme is about “invasion” apparently and it’s not really entertaining (too random to explain more of it also). It may look like that I’m predicting this but I sadly have just seen it. Though, I do admit that I did not follow the first season of this series and may never will. This episode just gives me the awkwardness; perhaps? Now, will I continue to follow this 2nd season anime? Probably not but I might give it another chance if I somehow first finish the first season if ever. Now, the question is: “Do you recommend this episode to watch?”. If you like random adventures, shounen and squids, this series is probably for you.
Conclusion: A random comedy adventure which is a type that I’m not really interested in even though it has some shounen in it.
By SparkNorkx 7 months, 3 weeks ago.
The finale is almost coming! I’m very excited and I’m really looking forward to watch the next episode! This episode is very interesting. The protagonist and his brother gets more bonded and much more. I can tell you that this episode surely prepares you to the finale. Which means, more action, drama and etc! All we can hope is that the producers don’t blow this. If you got disappointed from the previous episodes, this one and hopefully the next one will not disappoint you. It’s a must watch. That’s what I can comment on so far.
Conclusion: Awesome!
Note: Sorry, I didn’t explain the current episode much because I’m still sick.
By SparkNorkx 7 months, 3 weeks ago.
Episode 11 shows the origin how the protagonist (can’t say name because I’m sick) got to where currently he is right now on his adventures. This episode is very interesting and the setting is based of on WW I. There are also nice dog fights. You will also get details how a Phantom Book gets born. So, that’s pretty much it for this episode and this definitely a must watch.
Conclusion: Nice cover up on the origin.
By SparkNorkx 7 months, 3 weeks ago.
I’m kinda late posting up this, but the finale is left too open. In fact, it seems to be not close to a finale. It’s kinda like “fan service” or it is depending on your definition. The characters pretty much have fun at a bath which is not surprising and it’s not really a spoiler. So, that’s pretty much it for this episode and it did kinda left me disappointed even though I have a cold still. Anyway, the finale is still a must watch if you like vampires.
Conclusion: Finale doesn’t feel like a finale but feels more like fan service.
By SparkNorkx 7 months, 3 weeks ago.
So, I’m currently starting to get a cold for some strange reason. It might be from getting tired and such. Anyway, this is a short notice that I might skip some posts and I really hope that I’ll get well by tomorrow…
By SparkNorkx 7 months, 3 weeks ago.
Mayo Chiki might be over soon. Pretty much, it’s more character development and more romance involved. The protagonist once again has to deal with the butler’s problems. (Can’t say their names because I can’t think much when I’m starting to get sick) This episode is not bad but somewhat typical what you usually see on most echii anime. It’s not really cheesy and a must watch still.
Conclusion: Decent episode.
By SparkNorkx 8 months ago.
In case you’re wondering why I’m currently not doing impressions on Ikoku Meiro no Croisee is because it’s too peaceful and so cute to explain. Most likely; I would be saying something like: “It’s so cute and it’s a must watch even though it’s too peaceful!” on all my impressions and it’s also not even really worth to me to explain each episode entirely when I’m spoiling because it’s yet again; too “peaceful” and so “cute” like usual. Though, I am still following it. Full review on this series is coming soon if I have the time.
Sorry Yune-chan!
By SparkNorkx 8 months ago.
I don’t have many friends…. Actually, that’s kinda true for me…. (cough) (cough) Anyway, this OVA is cute like in the graphics and characters. There’s no actual story but the randomness the episode is quite nice. It’s basically about everyday life in funny ways that might also get you jealous. This OVA is short and that’s all I can comment on. Other than that, it’s not a bad OVA episode to me at least. This episode is a must watch though.
Conclusion: Cool OVA episode and nice decently well made graphics.
By SparkNorkx 8 months ago.
So I had been following this series to the end for no reason but this finale is not bad. The protagonist gets even better in combat. Also, the conflict is decent. And err… That’s what I can pretty much what I can comment on since this series is one of those average anime that got inspired by many anime like Eureka 7 and copied a bit out of them. Overall, the story is decent. This episode is a must watch if you somehow kept following this series or if you like mech stuff.
Conclusion: Decent finale.
By SparkNorkx 8 months ago.
Oh jeez, this episode shows a lot of details on what happened in the beginning and I liked it! They also revealed the truth on what really happened and how the current event ended up like that. It was awesome and it’s fortunately not one of those downer episodes. (On the downer episodes, they should have just ended up as OVAs.) Anyway, we basically get to learn the past story on the two brothers. I can hint you that Satan will of course show up on this. This episode is a much watch.
Conclusion: Nice details of the past.
By SparkNorkx 8 months ago.
I finally was able to watch Itsuka Tenma no Kuro Usagi episode 11. This episode was actually quite nice. There’s a lot of character development and action which I liked about it. In other words, decently played. The conflict was also interesting. Also, the romance is somewhat getting better but the rivalry between Taito’s childhood friend and the vampire girl is getting bigger. The main thing I like about this episode is just the story itself. It somehow just got me hooked into it even though it’s just a decent story. I do recommend you to watch this episode if you follow the series or like vampire theme romance stuff.
Conclusion: Cool episode and I kinda like the romance.
By SparkNorkx 8 months ago.
For some strange reason, I can’t find a way to watch this episode. So, I might skip it due to that it might be late. But, anyway; there might be a chance for me to post it up.
By SparkNorkx 8 months ago.
The finale is actually not bad and they managed to pull it off. I can hint you that there is no sad ending. On this final episode, they left it open. Other than that, the characters are decently played and the plot is all right. That’s pretty much what I can say it’s not that interesting to me. I do recommend you to watch this though.
Conclusion: Decent ending.
By SparkNorkx 8 months ago.
This is an interesting case for this episode. It’s pretty much dealing with one of members of the main group of friends in the anime. But; it’s a bit sad and tragic. There is no action but the talking is quite interesting like usual on some previous episodes. Also, there’s some more characters getting involved in this case. I have no further comment but have to say that “it’s the NEET thing to do to watch this episode”.
Conclusion: Interesting case.
By SparkNorkx 8 months ago.
Okay, I had been waiting for the first OVA to come out for a while and sadly; it’s disappointing like most OVAs! The protagonist does not even show up as much in this OVA especially at the beginning. The OP is very echii for some strange reason staring Kanon (one of the candidates that’s a celebrity pop singer for Season 1). The entire OVA is just all about the girls hanging out in their little boring adventure. I basically skipped parts because it was that disappointing and there’s no story at all or a real conflict which is typical for an average OVA.
Conclusion: Horrible and ended up as one of those typical OVAs.
By SparkNorkx 8 months ago.
Err…. This series has been strange so far… The episode is not bad and not that good in a way at the same time. So the main conflict is just weird in a funny feeling to me. I actually can’t describe much even if I can spoil this episode. It just got my jaw dropped and kinda confused? It’s also strange that I can’t really describe my reaction. All I can officially comment on is that it’s decent and perhaps genius to get this strange story good.
Conclusion: ...
By SparkNorkx 8 months ago.
Ladies and Gentlemen; behold! Another not bad episode of Dantalian no Shaka! But, unfortunately some episodes can end tragically like this one. This episode’s case is pretty short but it’s not bad. Since this is a fantasy mystery series, they added a Sci-Fi-ish touch on this certain episode. A hint is that there will be a robot/machine involved in this case. Though, there’s no character development much but there the producers adding more exciting action scenes. Like I mentioned before; this is quite similar to Gosick in a way but better action.
Conclusion: Decent episode and nice little touch of Sci-Fi.
By SparkNorkx 8 months ago.
Gah! For some strange reason; I kept on giggling a lot on this for some strange reason. Anyway, this episode is alright. There’s just the same randomness and twists and turns like usual. The relationship between the protagonist and the heroine is getting closer than before. So far, it might turn out plain romance comedy and a drop of echiiness at the end. It’s not cheesy and it does meet the basic standards for a decent typical anime so far.
Conclusion: Not a bad episode and there’s a bunch of minor conflicts.
By SparkNorkx 8 months ago.
No. 6 is yet another series that finally came to an end. Sion was able to meet his girl friend once more along with Rat. But; it becomes tragic and touching at the same time. I can guarantee that this final episode does not have a full bad ending. The characters were nicely played the whole time in this last episode. Sion still does kinda get crazy like you saw in the previous episodes since he’s a peaceful boy. Though, there is a lot of people getting slaughtered and lots of action (it’s not that violent). Besides all that, this series simply have touched me in a way and makes me kinda cry (in a good way).
Conclusion: Nice ending and nicely played. It’s kinda touching.
By SparkNorkx 8 months, 1 week ago.
Steins;Gate has finally sadly come to an end. Basically, the protagonist (Okabe) goes on a final task to attempt to save Makise. All I can hint you is that the ending is not sad. This last episode is memorial for some reason to me and could be for you too. So, go watch it if you seen all the other previous episodes. I rather not explain things myself if you didn’t watch this episode yet.
Conclusion: Epic ending!
Now, since the series is over and you somehow want to make the series last a bit longer; I suggest you to re-watch the very first episode again. First of, you will be freaked out. Second, you will understand the story more. I can give you another clue that it deals with “time traveling” and nothing else. Re-watching the entire series itself is optional but you might be able to understand the story way more. Another suggestion is if you have an Xbox 360, you should buy/rent/borrow the game and play it. I didn’t check up on the game but I’m guessing that it is good. Don’t forget that the movie is coming out soon.
By SparkNorkx 8 months, 1 week ago.
Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai is coming to the Nintendo 3DS! It is to be released sometime in March, 2012. The game is said to be taking advantage over the 3DS’s cameras. So far, the previews just reveal Hatsune Miku and the other Vocaloids are just chibis. I’m not really going to complain but they are still cute. More details will be posted soon. Here’s the trailer.
By SparkNorkx 8 months, 1 week ago.
Steins;Gate’s finale is coming up tomorrow! So prepare for the finale. If you watched the previous episode, Okabe was yet given another task. But, this time; he needs to prevent World War III from happening. His future self was able to send himself a video message that he needs to save Makise from getting stabbed and killed. Now, I wonder what is going to really happen. I’m guessing that Okabe will be able to save the girl he likes or it might turn out to be a tragic ending? Who knows since the series is not that predictable and has a very good storyline. We will just have to see….
By SparkNorkx 8 months, 1 week ago.
This episode is very random and it’s a funny cute anime short! It’s just about a girl getting involved with things in a cute way. And that’s what I can comment on. So far; the creator is doing a decent job on this series.
Conclusion: Cute funny short episode.
By SparkNorkx 8 months, 1 week ago.
Towa no Quon Movie is anime movie series like Break Blade. Episode 1 is of course the beginning but it is kinda similar to X-Men (Marvel) and Sacred Seven. The setting is based in the future and it has a Sci-Fi taste. The series basically follows a group of super humans that save other super humans (that just awakened their powers) from getting captured by a mysterious organization that launches raids to attempt to capture. That’s what I meant on that it’s kinda similar to X-Men. Towa no Quon is apparently created Umanosuke IIDA (in Japanese; 飯田 馬之介). He is the creator behind Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team (OAV), Origin and more. There is a rumor that he is retiring after he is done with this movie series but I can not confirm it. Anyway, you should go probably watch this if you didn’t have the chance yet especially if you like the X-Men. This movie series is worth following so far.
Conclusion: Like the story and action scenes so far. I’m looking forward to the next one.
By SparkNorkx 8 months, 1 week ago.
[Note: This article may contain some spoilers due to that this episode is too short.]
Bosou Shinki Moon Angel is anime series short about a world about battle action figures called a “Shinki”. Apparently, these battle toys just fight each other so far which is not surprising since the beginning scene. The problem about this series on the very first episode on me is that the beginning got very interesting and ended left a BIG cliff hanger after the boy found a damaged Shinki that somehow got fated to drop near the boy. It got me really quite disappointed though… There is really no character development yet because the episode is yet again; too short. Anyway, I do hope that this series gets better. This series is similar to Infinite Stratos (anime) because the toys are mech themed and also MicroVolts (MMO shooter) because there are alive toys fighting each other.
Conclusion: Episode is too short but it’s interesting.
By SparkNorkx 8 months, 1 week ago.
Okay, this episode is a big shocker to me. There is also lot of action and Rin gets into a big conflict. The Exorcists slaughter the demons a lot on this episode. I’m quite impressed and that’s what I can brief you on because I’m in a hurry doing things.
Conclusion: Nice conflict and action scenes.
By SparkNorkx 8 months, 1 week ago.
Sacred Seven Episode 11 is almost close to the finale. Basically, there’s a lot of action and a bunch of surprising events in a way. The protagonist (Tandouji) has to find and rescue Aiba again (the usual hero rescue the princess again and again formula). That’s just the rest of this episode and it’s all action and not much of a story exactly. Though; I still recommend you to watch it and it’s still not bad.
Conclusion: It’s okay and nice action scenes.
By SparkNorkx 8 months, 1 week ago.
This is another notice that I keep getting delayed to post things because I got some wedding to attend to, lap top is not accessible yet and etc… That was really uncalled for me. I’ll post up as soon as I can and make my blog catch up! Thanks.
By SparkNorkx 8 months, 1 week ago.
So, I’m posting up from my 3DS which is kinda sad because I can’t access the lap top for a strange reason and I recently started schoolgirl. Well, anyway; I’ll be able to post up this Friday. (it feels somewhat weired typing from my 3DS)
By SparkNorkx 8 months, 2 weeks ago.
I recently found out the anime short I was talking about in my previous blog post is that the series is from the same creator of the Hatsune Miku manga. I really can’t believe that I didn’t do some research until I finally got curious on who is behind that anime series shorts. Though, there is no news when the next issue of the Hatsune Miku will come out. Once again, Happy Birthday Hatsune Miku!

Note: On Copihan Episode 2, I skipped posting up because it’s too short for me to comment on and it’s still not bad. But I do still recommend you watch this anime shorts series.
By SparkNorkx 8 months, 2 weeks ago.
Apparently, I have time to do an impression on a anime OVA I just watched. First of, I didn’t follow this anime when it was close to the ending because it’s just random, story doesn’t make sense anymore and etc. So, I basically got bored of it but I made up my mind when the OVA just recently came out because I have nothing to watch and I have time. It’s yet again, the same random echii formula but it’s funny enough. I’m not really impressed. Out of all the random echii anime I watched; this would be somewhat on the bottom of my echii anime type list. Don’t get offended if you like this series. I admit it that it does have the usual standards of an average echii anime. Anyway, I don’t really recommend this or plan to write a review on the full series unless something happens. Though, this is a decent time waster if you don’t have any anime to watch currently.
Conclusion: Decent.
By SparkNorkx 8 months, 2 weeks ago.
So I recently somehow saw trailers of this Japanese anime inspired perverted game on (yes, it’s very echii) coming soon for the 3DS on GameTrailers.com. It’s basically about school girls battling out each other in many ways and there is no male characters at all revealed so far. There is… err…. a lot of boobs wiggling/jiggling or whatever in your definition you can say in this game. The publisher, Marvelous Entertainment, – are the same creators behind the Harvest Moon and Rune Factory franchises. In a way, I’m a bit freaked out seeing them publish and create a game like this but then again; they are involved with romance girly games, dating sims and stuff. I don’t think I will buy this game someday if it ever comes out even though I do watch some echii anime. But who knows about me. Anyway, feel free to check this game out if you like echii types.

OMG! This episode is so “AWESOME” and this is one of the anime that I’m very impressed so far! There is going to be a lot of action on the next episode. I just love at the fact that the ending of the episode reveals something very interesting (it’s way more interesting than the previous episodes) and a bit sad. But, Steins;Gate didn’t mess up on anything and it’s just very well done. Don’t forget that there’s something at the end of the credits that you can NOT miss! I highly recommend you to watch this episode or follow the series.
Conclusion: AWESOME! O_O
Note: I will be skipping this weekend’s episodes and this week’s episodes due to that I’m going to travel to somewhere. Though, I will surely have a co- full anime review with someone I’m working with for next week surely.

Hello. As you can see, there is no daily blog posts/anime episode impressions of mine showing up due to the fact that I’m busy helping out with things in reality and getting ready for stuff. But, I am still watching or following the latest anime episodes. I am also losing activity on the Ani.me community sadly. So; I’ll post up daily real soon once I find balance in my time. In other words; I’m taking a break.
As noted; I will have my co-anime series reviews and impressions up with other people.

Japanese retailers are taking out Xbox 360 stuff from the shelves recently. Even though they are losing from the shelves; Microsoft was able to win the hearts of the Japanese game companies and still made a profit. I think that it’s obvious that Japan does not like foreign things much but it’s not a big deal. In the future, Xbox 360 might return back to Japan.
More additional info is over here.

Note: I was a bit busy playing Rune Factory 3 and some other video games. So, that’s why I’m a bit late and I’m also was quite busy which is forced to help out on something and had to wake up at five in the morning and it’s going to happen again tomorrow. If I’m late again for release, I might probably put in spoilers. Anyway, here’s my very short/comment impression since I’m still busy.
Steins;Gate episode 21 is once again; the protagonist trying to save his friend from death. So, he managed to expand her from getting killed a day per a D Mail undone (you know what characters I’m talking about if you’re following the series). Then this episode tells more details why the protagonist’s plans will be changing. In other words; more excitement. Like I mentioned from my previous posts, the episodes are just getting better. So, you should probably watch this episode if you haven’t seen it yet or follow the series.
Conclusion: Like the new problems getting in and more excitement.
By SparkNorkx 9 months ago.
Ao No Exorcist episode 19 made me laugh a lot. Though there is no action scenes on this episode, it’s quite funny. So, there is character development and they are just having fun. But, fortunately; it’s not one of those cheesy episodes of them having fun. I recommend you to watch this episode or follow this series.
Conclusion: Nice comedy and more character development.
By SparkNorkx 9 months ago.
Tiger and Bunny episode 21 continues about Tiger being framed and the heroes don’t remember him. The conflict is quite a disaster. So, Tiger is fleeing for his life from the hunt. This episode is just a shocker and I couldn’t really predict that this would happen. I recommend you to watch this episode. Also, I’m in a hurry to post stuff and you can see why my current posts are very short.
Conclusion: Shocker…
By SparkNorkx 9 months ago.
Sacred Seven episode 8 is very romantic! But, don’t expect any action scenes. The thing I like about this episode is like again; very romantic. That’s what I can say and I don’t like explaining “romantic” things much. So, go watch this episode if you’re following this series.
Conclusion: Like the romantic parts.
By SparkNorkx 9 months ago.
Kamisama no Memochou episode 7 continues the strange case of the two leader leaders of their group. This episode reveals more secrets and more character development between the protagonist and heroine which could become a romance soon. So, basically the protagonist (Fujishima) gets deeper in the situation and caused some problems without knowing. The heroine (Alice) finally got involved officially in this case on this episode. Episode 7 is quite okay and it did not exactly get that boring. The series is basically like Gosick but in modern times. I recommend you to watch this decent episode or follow this series even though the Ani.me reviewers said the series itself is boring. But, it’s actually getting quite better.
Conclusion: Nice character development and it’s getting more exciting.
By SparkNorkx 9 months ago.
Dantalian no Shoka episode 6 is very interesting. This episode introduces two new characters which could be another protagonist and heroine of this series. They simply solve a cases and have similar abilities to the main protagonist and heroine. But, the new characters are looking for them. So, we’ll be expecting them to see each other soon. This is just quite interesting and it wasn’t boring at all on this episode. I recommend you to watch this.
Conclusion: Cool new characters and not a bad plot on this episode.
By SparkNorkx 9 months ago.
Itsuka Tenma no Kuro Usagi episode 7 is kinda weird. Well, the protagonist will travel through a dimension one again and talk to a lord to grant his wish for something on this episode. So, that’s what I can brief you on. Also, there will be another new character introduced. Other than that, the episode is okay and there is still romance involved and some more secrets will be revealed.

If you do so happen to see Ah! My Goddess 2011 OVA Episodes 1, 2, 3 ,and 4; they are “fake” on the name. Yes, they are “OVAs” but as you can see; the graphics are outdated and it is English dubbed. I notice some anime sites are showing those as “Ah! My Goddess 2011 OVA” and I’m not allowed to mention those sites. So, I don’t recommend you to watch them because it’s very cheesy and it is not exactly connected to Ah! My Goddess. If you do see a “Ah! My Goddess OVA 2011”, make sure the graphics/artwork are up to date and there is already an episode of the OVA series that came out months ago. Just thought to mention this out.
Here is an example that an anime site posted up which is not true:

Mawaru Penguindrum episode 6 shows the things behind the mystery like the previous episode. On what I mean by “mystery” is that there are bad guys behind this. But yet again; the episode is also funny at the same time. You know this crazy girl falling for this teacher, right? Well, she has been crazier on each episode and especially on this one. This episode will reveal why she is doing it. So, there you have it kinda. I do recommend you to watch this episode or follow this series. If you did so happen to skip an episode of this anime, it will not make any sense for you (in other words, you won’t be able to get it while even watching it).
Conclusion: Mystery is getting better and it’s funny at the same time.

Mayo Chiki episode 7 is just hilarious! So the protagonist got tricked and went into yet again; another weird situation. Though the heroine butler and him are getting a closer relationship I notice. The setting will be at a beach and yes; it’s one of those beach fan services you see in any other anime. That’s what I can pretty much comment on.
Conclusion: In a funny situation like usual and closer character relationships.
By SparkNorkx 9 months ago.
No. 6 episode 7 develops a closer relationship between the two protagonists and the supporting characters around them. So, Rat continues to form a plan to save Sion’s captured girlfriend at the correction facility when he found out about her getting captured through Sion’s mother’s message from the previous episode. The episode I got to say and yet again; another well made episode. The plots are getting more interesting and there are bits of twists. I highly recommend you to watch this episode or follow this series.
Conclusion: Closer character development and well made story so far.

Can you watch or listen to this Japanese song for 10 hours straight?

Steins;Gate episode 20 is actually a big shocker in a way. You will find many hidden things in this episode. Basically, our mad scientist is undoing the D-Mails like usual in the previous episodes. But, on this certain episode; it actually reveals FB’s true identity (so don’t worry about another cliff hanger on FB getting revealed). I truly like this series and it just keeps getting better and better on every single episode even though the pace is slow like I mentioned on my previous blog posts and in the Ani.me forums. So, I highly recommend you to watch this episode and if you’re not following this series, you should probably do it now since the story is very well made.
Conclusion: Huge shocker, nice to see FB getting revealed finally and the series is getting close to the finale.

Noooo!!!! There is yet again not any anime for me to watch! On the full reviews part, I still didn’t make any time yet and will probably work with other reviewers instead maybe… Heh.

Ikoku Meiro no Croisee episode 6 is another so peaceful episode yet again. Though, a conflict got a tad better but it’s based on daily life. The heroine basically got sick from something and the protagonist needs to take care of her. In a way, I do admit that the series does get kinda boring but I’m following it because it’s cute and nice art designs. That is what just got me sadly even though I’m an action fan. I kinda recommend you to watch this episode… Kawaii…..

Tiger and Bunny episode 20 continues the mess up with Barnaby. If you watched the previous episode, Barnaby found out that the boss of Hero TV is the villain behind the murder of his parents. So, this episode basically continues the problem. This current episode is about Tiger on what he is going to do to defeat this villain. Once again, this episode is not a downer to me. The current conflict is interesting and there is going to be a big challenge for Tiger by himself. I do recommend you to watch this episode if you have not seen it yet.
Conclusion: Like the conflict and not much of a downer but don’t expect much on actual action scenes on this one.
By SparkNorkx 9 months, 1 week ago.
Ao no Exorcist episode 18 focuses on one of the supporting characters of Rin’s group. The conflict in this episode in kinda irritating in some way to me. Other than that, this episode is all right and so far it didn’t end up like those cheesy episodes I mentioned on my previous blog posts. So, feel free to watch this episode and I’m being neutral on this one for recommendations.
Conclusion: It’s okay and still nice action scenes.
By SparkNorkx 9 months, 1 week ago.
Compihan Episode 1 is a short but it’s way better than Nyanpire the Animation! This new series shorts is about sports, school life and some echii. I don’t know how they will pull this off but it’s quite interesting. That’s all I can comment because it’s a short.
Conclusion: Nice characters, story, and little conflicts.
By SparkNorkx 9 months, 1 week ago.
Sacred Seven episode 7 continues the kidnapping that has been left off on episode 6. The protagonist and the heroine starts to decide on whose side they will be on (it will be explained during this episode). The episode is okay like usual and I will still be following it. The action scenes are okay. This episode is recommendable if you’re following this series or if you like mech things.
Conclusion: Interesting conflict and decent action scenes.
By SparkNorkx 9 months, 1 week ago.
Kamisama no Memochou Episode 6 is a tad more exciting than the previous episodes. Though, there’s no more action or something like that. But, it’s not bad. I do admit that I get bored watching this series but the storyline is getting better. In a way, it’s like Gosick but in modern times. So, that’s what I can pretty much comment on. Also, the protagonist and the heroine gets a closer relationship on every episode. I do recommend you to watch this episode if you like Gosick or other detective series.
Conclusion: More exciting and nice conflicts.

Redline the movie is actually quite interesting. It is basically about a major intergalactic race called Red Line. The movie kinda reminds me of Death Race 2000 (not an anime) and Death Race (not an anime but the current one) in a way because the racers are allowed to use weapons. Note that there is also some romance involved. If you do so happen to like galactic things, sci-fi, action or races, then I recommend you to watch this.
Conclusion: Nice storyline, love the action, unique art style and interesting characters.

Aniplex Live Panel is going on live! Check it out on niconico.com. I am currently watching it.
Update: It is now over and they did not reveal much info.
By SparkNorkx 9 months, 1 week ago.
Ani.me recently announced that a video website called Niconico has been launched recently. So, I decided to explore the site for a bit and I wrote what I think about this site and explain some of the main features of the site:
I found out that members who signed up on the site can share videos from any other existing video sites like YouTube (also, members only can view the videos). You can simply post the video link on the “Share Videos” bar. Here’s a screen shot.
Then, the unique thing I found on the video player system there is that user comments can be seen sliding across the video screen. I find that quite funny and it’s actually not bad.
Since the website is on beta, I can not really complain besides the premium membership (don’t worry, it does not really affect you and it’s not worth the money). Other than that, the site is not bad and it is Japanese/anime inspired (because it is created from Japan). Just for the fun of it, I uploaded a video of one of Ani.me’s interviews.
Conclusion: Not a bad site, nice features, cool commenting system and I don’t like the premium member system.

Dantalian no Shoka episode 5 is actually a bit way better than the previous episodes and it has way more action instead than just focusing on the power of the Phantom Books. I surprisingly have to say is that I didn’t get that bored compare to watching the previous episodes. This episode somewhat reminded me of Gosick for some reason. Other than that, I like this episode and I do recommend you watch it or if you gave up on following this series, give it another chance.
Conclusion: Nice action scenes and plot.
By SparkNorkx 9 months, 1 week ago.
Itsuka Tenma no Kuro Usagi episode 6 is not bad. Basically, Taito is still learning how to do things. Also, there is more character development (which I had been quite mentioning on most of my Impressions). If you’re following the series or if you like vampire romance, you should probably go watch this episode. There is really nothing cheesy and it’s quite decent in this episode like usual. Note that I’m trying to make time to go write full reviews.
Conclusion: Decently done like usual.

Hayate no Gotoku ( or Hayate the Combat Butler) the Movie is coming out this month on August 21, 2011. The movie title will be “Hayate the Combat Butler!: Heaven is a Place on Earth”. Also, the rumored season 3 might come out soon after the movie. I think Hayate’s “ex-girl friend” (Athena) will make an appearance along with Hayate’s older brother soon. More info and updates about the movie and season 3 will posted up, so stay tune.
Here is a sneak preview on the movie (it comes out at the 2nd half of the trailer):

Note: Strangely, I can not post up a video directly on my blog. Apparently, html coding is not doing anything. So, please copy and paste the video link.

Mayo Chiki! Episode 6 is decent and has the standards of a usual echii type anime. Most reviewers already had dropped this anime series from their lists because they don’t have time to follow it or they’re not fond of the series but I’m still following it (because I’m a mad reviewer/blogger). So, the episode still continues on Jiro still trying to get over his girl phobia (which is pretty much part of the main storyline). But, it continues the development of the relationship between the newly introduced female character and the protagonist that were left of during episode 5 (aka… cliff hanger). Other than that, that’s basically it and the episode is okay. If you’re an echii fan or like romance, you should probably go watch it.
Conclusion: Decent story so far and decent character developments.

Okay, I got to admit that this anime shorts series just sucks. When I watched the first episode, it just became nonsense (like really horrible comedy wannabe). What’s up with the star cat that wants to eat food all the time??? The animation itself is also horrible. I even hate the openings and endings they put there. It’s not even close to cute/kawaii. So, I highly recommend you NOT to watch this lame series and it’s not even worth spending some time to watch it. The storyline itself is just ridiculous (in a bad way). I just thought to bring this up. Note that I’m not going to write a full review on this lame series at all.
Conclusion: Very horrible in any way, cheesy storyline, lame animation, lame comedy wanna be and it’s not even worth the time to watch this series. (Yes, I’m repeating the word “lame”)

No. 6 episode 6 continues the story of Sion and Rat outside of the the city, No. 6. Their relationship is getting harder on this certain episode and there’s a big problem with a girl too. I do like the episode and I recommend you to watch it. It is getting better and exciting. The story is pretty darn well made to me so far.
Conclusion: Like the new conflicts, story so far is well made, and more characters’ development.

Hmm… I got about 111 viewers in 3 days since I started my Blog. Anyway, I will get my anime series reviews written as soon as possible. Also, I’ll start posting spoilers on my reviews unless posting up anti-spoiler reviews is way better perhaps? I have to admit that I’m quite limited posting those type of reviews up and if I do post up spoilers, I’ll put the warning in them of course. So, anyone following up/reading this Blog? Please comment or suggest. (I’m guessing that there will be no comment since people are shy)
By SparkNorkx 9 months, 1 week ago.
Just letting you readers know, when I want to take a break on posting in my Blog, my brother will post his reviews instead mostly on the anime part on the shows he like. Also, he will do other things if he feels like it. His name will not be mentioned yet until he does his first review and he will not be able to join Ani.me due to that he’s busy. So, stay tune…

So, I had been back playing most of the day yesterday on a free tactical MMO shooter called Battlefield Play4Free published by EA. Basically the game only has 2 main factions which are the USA Forces against the Russian Forces. (And of course it’s one of those games that claim that Russia is evil) The game itself is a remake of Battlefield 2 but it is upgraded and better features.
The gameplay I got to say is actually quite balanced. But, the main problem about the game like any other free to play MMO FPS games are the “whiners”. Yes, that’s right, “whiners”. Sadly, nowadays, most- actually some gamers/players just cry out that the person who killed them is a “hacker” or a “Pay2Win player”. In fact, those “Pay2Win” guns are not actually “Pay2Win”. When I was playing during Beta, I was and am still able to kill those players with cash weapons (also with my default assault rifle). I have to admit that each weapon actually depends on the player’s skill and it does not allow the player. How do I know that? I played Battlefield 2142 a lot back then and some of Battlefield 2. (Battlefield Heroes is also included). Another problem about the game is “teamplay” because most players are just used to be soloing for some reason.
So, other than those problems, they can just be simply ignored. (I guess I did kinda blow out my arguments but it’s worth mentioning) On the bright side of this game is that it is not strict on graphics and may be played on low settings which means computers that can’t handle high graphic games can play this one (well, most computers (PCs) can). Another nice thing is that this game gets daily updates unlike Battlefield 2. So, I do recommend you to play this game if you’re interested in FPS games or if you’re a Battlefield fan. Next Impression of Battlefield Play4Free will come out when the new Tier 3 updates and maps come out.
Conclusion: Nice game, good balance, and one the nice FPS games I ever played.

Steins;Gate episode 19 is yet, another good episode. Pretty much, the main protagonist (Okabe) is still trying to find out how to save his best friend/childhood friend (Mayuri) by doing something. That’s what I can only brief you on. So, go watch it!
Note that this very short review is just really a short comment so you can actually have time to go watch this episode instead of me telling you the entire story on the episode.
Conclusion: Nicely done and good cliff hanger.

Most likely I will not be able to write a full review on this manga series since I’m not that focused on writing reviews for a manga and due to my time. But, I’ll gladly write a full review or very short review on any manga requested by my readers. This manga is particularly worth mentioning because I read it in school and also, I like it. Now, to my very short review:
Angel Beats – Heaven’s Door is not based on the exact story you see in the anime. It restarts the entire story and it is a sequel to the main series. In other words, this manga is a alternative story. The down side about this manga series is that a issue comes out once in a while or rarely. Even though, there is no issue out currently around this time, I still highly recommend you to still read it if you watched the entire anime series, Angel Beats. So far, there are only 13 issues that are out. Other than that the characters do still have the same personality like the main story and there is still a bunch of humor and action scenes. This is pretty much what I can explain about this manga and if I do continue, I might spoil it or get you really confused. Like I said, it’s just worth for me to mention it. I’ll write a full review on the Angel Beats anime series coming soon.
Conclusion: Nice same characters and sequel.

This is a notice that my reviews and coming soon reviews are “positive”. You can simply say I’m a gentle critic compared to other reviewers. I always have something positive for anything most of the time unless the thing is so bad that I will highly criticize. (If it’s boring, I wouldn’t even bother on it much) Also note that there are some errors on my reviews currently due to my hard rushing on my Blog to catch up with things. I will have them fixed as soon as possible. Thanks.

Gah, this series is just still cute! Even though I’m not a fan of very peaceful stuff, it’s just plain darn cute. I have nothing much to say or I might spoil this episode by just describing it. But, I do recommend you to watch this episode. The story and conflicts so far is just simple (in a good way). Full review on this series will be coming soon.
Hint: More characters are getting introduced.
Conclusion: Cute…

Ao no Exorcist Episode 17 is cool! (So fear not, this is not one of those cheesy episodes) My first first impression of it is the funny Japanese commercials. The thing I’m getting fond of is that there’s more action and actually a big, wait no, huge shocker. This episode basically shows the start of the main character’s life changing a lot. You will not get disappointed and I highly recommend you to watch this episode unless you’re not a fan of this series or don’t like demon related things. So go watch it! Other than that, I think that the producers are making up for those poorly done episodes like the beach episode.
Conclusion: Nicely done, huge shocker and cool action scenes.
Note: I’m currently rushing my Very Short Rushing Anime Reviews so I can catch up to the very latest finally and have my anime series full reviews posted sooner.

Captain America: The First Avenger is actually cool. It of course, reveals his origins and how he got his super power. But, due to Disney owning Marvel and Hollywood changing the original super hero stories, Captain America got a tad off from how I learned of it. Anyway, the movie takes place during World War II and up to the present time. It also shows the origin of a super villain, Red Skull. That’s pretty much what I can say about the movie and I do recommend you to watch it even though it’s not related to Anime/Manga. This movie will be connected to the upcoming movie, The Avengers of course. Don’t forget, there’s something after the credits.
Conclusion: Nice action scenes, love the WW II theme and story is not bad.

Okay, this OVA is quite funny. (There is only “one episode” sadly) It is basically about a teenage boy who thought he was all by himself until recently he found his “true” mother. Then his story begins with his bunch of sisters in a big house…
The graphics are somewhat amazing and the characters are kinda a bit “3D” and it is a harem/echii. The story is not that cheesy and it’s really funny. This series is based on a visual novel and it got directed by Takayuki Inagaki (Rosario + Vampire, Desert Punk). I really recommend this episode because it’s just plain funny to me. It does meet the usual standards of an echii anime (excluding cheesy story line). Okay, that’s pretty much what I can comment on and if I continue more, I probably would spoil this OVA. So, go watch it yourself!
Here’s the OP of this OVA: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBgoWUzapMU

Conclusion: Quite funny and it’s actually not bad.
Note: I had seen this OVA way before writing this review.

Tiger and Bunny Episode 19 is somewhat weird and mysterious. It will shock you somehow and it’s not that predictable. Though, do not expect any action at all and it is all talking. The story so far is not bad in my opinion but it’s kinda getting bit of a downer to me. I do not recommend you to watch this episode exactly unless you want to stay complete on the story line. If you do skip this episode, don’t worry. You can figure the next episode out and it will still turn out to be a shocker for you.
I’m currently kinda busy as you can see so that’s why my “Very Short” Anime Reviews are coming out for the latest episodes I’m watching. I’ll have a full review very soon on this series.
Conclusion: Bit surprising and turning into a downer.
By SparkNorkx 9 months, 2 weeks ago.
Sacred Seven Episode 6 is alright. The latest episode so far is not bad. The character development is getting deeper and the action scenes are about the usual. That’s pretty much what I can comment on. Other than that, I recommend you to watch it. I’ll have a full review on this series very soon.
Conclusion: Not bad.

I’ll post up my personal Anime Reviews, Video Games reviews and other things like traveling on this Blog. Note that I did travel a lot in total. That’s it for now besides posting in the forums.
