Bleach – 66

February 8, 2006 by psgels, posted in Bleach

This was a pretty entertaining episode. I’m beginning to like the new Bleach. It’s starting to turn into the brilliance of the first 30 episodes again. Thank goodness for that.

Okay, it may be a filler. But it sure is a good filler. I just love the way the everyone abuses and yells to each other, Kon’s hilarious when he’s not near Inue, and finally some problems are presented in which the characters have to use their brains, instead of their muscles. I can’t believe a show like Bleach would ever have that in it, to show such intelligence.

Also, Kon’s new back-pack-mode is hilarious, and have I mentioned before that the bad guys are great and the ED too cute?

A quick indication on what all the ratings mean:
77,5/100: Enjoyable series. While not the best of the best, they’ve got quite a few good points and are nice to watch, save for a few flaws.
75/100: Series that are either nothing special, or shows that could have been awesome, yet were plagued by too many flaws.
72,5/100: These series did quite a few things wrong here. They’ve got some nice parts, but overall they’re not worth it.
70/100: Very flawed series that are only enjoyable if you’re really bored.

Noein – 14

…

Why… oh why, do some guys have to look so much like women!?!

Those who’ve been reading my blog and paid close attention during this episode will know what I’m talking about. *feels ashamed*

Anyway, what we have here, is another great episode. We finally get to see what Haruka’s father looks like, at least, in his younger years. We also get some backstory of Haruka’s parents, we get to see a bit of character development from Yuu, and Haruka looked too cute when she was eight.

Anyway, the cliffhanger was again an awesome one. We finally get a bit more information about the grown-up Haruka, and it just makes me even hungrier for more. We also see for 0,3 seconds what the new enemies will be like. It promises to become really interesting.

And also, the old telephone, it was a brilliant idea. I like it.

The Law of Ueki – 34

February 6, 2006 by psgels, posted in Law of Ueki

I was so busy with my rant from last time that I completely forgot about the new intro. It actually reveals quite a lot of things that will be coming in the following episodes, including the introduction of a few new interesting-ooking characters (or just old characters with a new haircut). I have no idea though why they included the scene of Marylin collapsing right at the beginning of th eopening… will there be something special about this? Rinko and Mori also begin to look more and more like the ladies-in-distress, who Ueki and the others have to rescue. This is such a pity, because their amazing personalities deserve way more than that. I’m wondering who the crying kid might be. It is a bit hard to see in such greyscales, but nobody in the show has similar eyebrows… Anyway, he or she looks like an interesting character. It also seems like we get to see God fighting in action. That will be interesting to see, I can’t wait for it, but it’ll probably be featured somewhere in the later episodes. I’m just a bit worried about the fact that Ueki is going to have wings… it seems awefully cliché… especially when you see him save a falling Mori…

Anyway, about the episode. Thank god this one was better then last time. I know again why I liked Kobayashi’s charcter so much. He’s just awesome. The new opponents also seem very interesting, especially during their introductions. The last team was a team about artists, this team is a team about soldiers. It works pretty well, and I really liked the way Ueki tricked everyone to buy the others some time. It really shows that the bad guys aren’t perfect as well. It also offers lots of possibilities for the next couple of episodes.

Spring Season Preview

February 5, 2006 by psgels, posted in Special Articles

Willuknight did an amazing job again in finding as much info about the upcoming spring anime season. I’m very enthusiastic about it, as there are some pretty good series among them. But then again… there’s also a lot of garbage coming up.

2006 Spring Anime Season – AnimeBlogger.net Wiki

Anyway, here will follow a small preview of each of the new series:

Ah! My Goddess 2nd season

The Second season of Ah! My Goddess. I’ve never seen the first part, so I can’t really say anything about this one. Apparently it’s the same old formula again: a guy who is nothing suddenly gets to be with a beautiful girl. I’m not really interested…

Air Gear

A rollerskating anime. And of course, the rollerskates have all kinds of technical tweaks, such as engines, etc. And of course, this anime follows a young boy who will eventually be the best of all. Exciting.

Shibawanko no Wa no Kokoro

A show which teaches little children about manners…

Aria The Animation, Second Season

The second season of Aria The Animation (we apparently have an aweful lot of second seasons this season). I’ve seen the first episode of the first season, but it was just a bit too peaceful, if that’s even possible.

Fushigiboshi no Futagohime Gyu!

Second season of Futago Hime. Note to self: watch first season.

Kirarin Revolution

Not another idol-anime… I have a bad feeling about this.

Finalist

Of course, I could have known. This season, of course, isn’t complete without a harem anime [/sarcasm] Anyway, I don’t have much hope for this, but who knows. After all, MagiKano turned out to be interesting, so why shouldn’t this series be as well?

NANA

I don’t know if I’ll watch this. The summary doesn’t really sound like a good premisse…

Love GeCHU – Miracle Seiyuu Hakusho

The only clue about the story I have is the title. Apparently this will be focused around voice-actors, with of course some love. I’m too much reminded about REC…

Ohran High School Host Club

Yaoi, shounen-ai, and all with a female main character. Well, well, well… I really don’t know whether I’ll watch this or not…

Digimon Savers

Well, well, well, what have we here? Another digimon series. I hope they learned from their mistakes in the past, because the concept remains interesting.

Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu

I have no idea what this show is about. The only thing I can say is that it will feature a girl in some weird uniform (maid?)

Kishin Houkou Demon Bane
Another Mecha show. I’m not a huge fan of mechas, but we’ll see how this ends up.

Gintama

So, science fiction combined with history. I’m somehow reminded of Samurai 7. I don’t know if I’ll like this, but that will depend on the first episode.

Saiunkoku Monogatari
This one sounds like a very serious harem show. That or it will just be a horrible harem show. If it’s going to be the former, then I’ll be interested.

Sasami -Mahou Shoujo Club-

Apparently this show was postponed a few months. It’s another mahou shoujo-series, but I really don’t like the art of this.

Witch Blade

I have no idea what this is, but I don’t really like the art…

Black Lagoon

An action series, featuring
some kind of international spy who gets captured, an then betrayed by the company he works for. Hmm, this has some interesting drama potential. I think I’ll watch this.

Yoshinaga-san’chi no Gargoyle

A… gargoyle… A living gargoyle. A living gargoyle won in a contest. A living gargoyle won in a contest and who appears to be the gatekeeper of Yoshinaga. It’ll probably be some kind of comedy. I have no idea whether it will work out or not.

Ju Oh Sei

This looks like the most serious anime of the season. I’m expecting lots of pain and suffering. It depends on how well the creators manage to execute this whether I’ll like it or not.

Inukami!

A slapstick comedy featuring a boy who thinks of nothing but women and money and a girl who likes to destroy things. I think I’ll hate the fantasies the boy will have, but the premisse of a girl who likes to destroy things makes me interested.

Dai Mahou Touge

Aww, another Mahou Shoujo. This can either be a total disaster, or a very cute series. What will it be?

RAY The Animation

Raycan see through objects, and apparently she has to fulfill some very dangerous assignments. I’ll wai for the first episode in order to check the overall tone of this anime.

Renkin 3kyuu Magical? Poka~n

Another mahou shoujo. I like the art of this. I’ll definately see it.

Kamisama Kazoku

Okay, if the creators manage to include lots of puns in this, it will become a great anime. But then again, it can also become horribly boring.

Tokko

Hmm, a guy joins a special force to revenge his parents who were ripped to pieces. I’m feeling 50:50 about this one.

Hime-Sama Goyoujin

The spiritual successor of rozen maiden, hun? It could turn out to be pretty interesting.

Simoun

Okay, interesting concept. People are born as girls, and on their fifteenth, they get to decide which sex they will be. This offers lots of possibilities for success, but then again… it also offers lots of possibilities for failure.

School Rumble 2nd Semester

Okay, note to self: finish the second half of the first season before this starts.

Yume Tsukai

A show about dreams. Has some definate potential.

Joshikousei GIRLS-HIGH

An all-girls high school, in which the absence of boys creates a total chaos. This has some serious potential.

KIBA

A fantasy action series. I’m a huge fan of fantasy, so I’ll be waiting for this. I’m just a bit worried about the sword-wielding male protagonist.

Soul Link

Interesting. Fourty years into the future, a space ship, which serves as an acadamy gets attacked by terrorists, and our main character, a student in this ship, has to find a way out. I’m also a big fan of the art.

Himawari

The mood of this anime seems very chaotic, judging from the picture and the description. This definately has some potential.

Good witch of the west: Astrea Testament

This sounds like a very cool series. I’ll definately watch this.

Utawarerumono

"The main character was helped when he was wounded lying on the ground in woods. When he woke up, he didn’t remember who he was. Furthermore, he had a mask that he couldn’t put off. By favor of the people in the village, who had animal ears and tails by the way, he began to live in the village." I just LOVE the art of this anime. I was a bit reluctant at first when I heard about this series, but I’m getting more enthusiastic by the minute.

Makai Senki Disgaea

So, this is about the conquest of the netherworld. This certainly is on my to-watch list. The art also looks too cute.

Tsubasa Chronicle Second Season

Finally, the second season of Tsubasa Chronicle I’ve been waiting for. I really can’t wait for this.

Higurashi no Naku koro ni

Murder mystery in a small mountain village which is about to be destroyed by the construction of a dam. I like it. The art also looks very cute, so I will be following this.

Shoujo Changguem no Yume
Oooh! This will be some kind of Japanese-Medieval-Fantasy story. The art looks great, I’ll certainly be following this gem.

XXXHoLiC

I am SO waiting for this. This will certainly be an awesome series.

Shinigami no Ballad

In march, this awesome-looking series will arrive. I can’t wait! 🙂

The Third

Damn you for delaying this awesome show for another season! *gets excited*

Revolutionary Girl Utena – 29

February 4, 2006 by psgels, posted in Revolutionary Girl Utena

Okay! Now it all gets clear. The previous episode was just a big prologue of this one. As expected, it’s a Yuri episode, but this one’s damn intense. Probably one of the most intense episodes so far in the series. We get to see yuri break down, Ruka being a bigger asshole than he already was and a climax that you certainly will not expect. It also Appears that Ruka was just meant to give Yuri some more character development. I wonder if we’ll see him again, as the ending of the episode shows some sign of character development on his side as well…

It’s also clear to me that this show doesn’t really have a main character. Yes, of course there are Utena and Himemiya, but they don’t really get more airtime than the other characters, probably even less. Especially in the latest episodes. It’s great to see a variation like this, especially when it’s so well carried out.

Anyway, we’ve had Sayonji, Miki, Ruka and Yuri. All that’s left is Nanami, Touga and the school presidend whose name I forgot. This gets more interestig by the minute.

Revolutionary Girl Utena – 28

February 4, 2006 by psgels, posted in Revolutionary Girl Utena

Somehow, I’ve got the feeling that this episode was shorter then the other episodes. However, when I checked the timing, it appeared just as long as any other episode… strange…

Anyway, this time, we see the introduction of another new character, who’ll probably get to play some kind of badguy-role. We first get the impression that this will be a Yuri-episode, but after a while it seems that this episode will be focused around the new guy and his new found girlfriend, Shiori. I liked the climax at the end. It shows that this new guy, although annoying as hell, can prove to be an interesting character.

Mushishi – 10

I may be wrong, but this is the first time i’ve actually seen hail in anime. Perhaps the first time I’ve seen hail on television as well… Why are the movie makers and such so afraid to add hail into the show? It happens pretty often, doesn’t it?

Anyway, this episode was another masterpiece. We see a certain character return in this episode. This time, his hobby has caused hhim some problems, and it’s up to Gin to solve it. The woman’s story was also amazingly told. I could really feel along with her. And it was so beautiful to see the kids get healed.

I’m only wondering why it was so convienient fr Gin to be in the neighbourhood, and the woman also lived relatively close by. I wonder what would have happened when they were a fair distance removed from each other.
