It was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen within the past 6 or so months.

I don't care what shit people give me for saying this.

But my entire life has waited for this and I am not disappointed.

I have never felt like crying so much from watching animu. Oh mai god...

-BRS OVA-

I cried. When a true friendship is unknowingly infiltrated by a third-party... And things fall apart.
It's been so long since I cried watching a show. It is so true...

IT HAPPENS TO ME ALL THE GODDAMN TIME!!!

------> 8/10

Beautiful plot, and there are so many symbols... of what represents friendship, of what represents good and evil. Of what represents honesty and love. To me, it is something ordinary turned into something EXTRAordinary.

It needs a sequel, though. Yuu was shown in the battle scenes, but she never did anything. The story is incomplete. And of course, at the end...
Spoiler:
The cycle repeats with her this time... Maybe shedding some light on this will help those who didn't understand the story at first understand it this time around.

To some, the plot may seem cheesy and unrealistic. To me, that wasn't important. I focused on more what the simple plot was trying to say rather than what was shown. -------> Focused more on what was NOT said

But hey guys, this happens so much in life. IT HAPPENS TO ME
And because of that, I don't have many friends. I've lost them all to others.

The seemingly random placement of battle scenes proved to be effective. This isn't the first time I see this, but it's not common. Actually, it's a powerful technique used commonly in today's movies.

I forgot the technical name for this used in cinema... damn

Final Line: BRS is open to viewer interpretation. Just like Eden of the East, it requires some thought to understand what was happening in the story. The overarching theme...

It's not your linear Anime with a plot and random happening to carry it around. I think this is what makes BRS versatile and powerful in meaning.

So why 8/10?

Basic animation cell coloring, no guys, some choppy animation in battle scenes, etc. Minor issues...

I'll be formally reviewing this Anime soon.

Because of some things that happened a few days ago I felt it was necessary for me to talk about the very much recent OVA adaptation of Sono Hanabira ni Kuchiduke wo --Anata to Koibito tsunagi--, which is based on the 3rd SonoHana game of the same name, featuring the same couple - Sawaguchi Mai and Kawamura Reo. For most viewers who did not really play the game, it may seem like your typical super adorable NSFW yuri sexings H animu, but to me, there was some appeal in it - not necessarily what I would call "my body being excited for it," but I feel that those who didn't play the game actually miss out, which is a shame because it really is beautiful for how predictably short it is. And despite this being based on the 3rd game of about 8 games, the 3rd game is getting a REMAKE anyways! So y'all can give it a shot.

Anyway, that said, why do you miss out if you haven't played the game? It is because the OVA doesn't necessarily explain why Reo and Mai are already having the hots for each other in the first place - this was heavily elaborated upon in the game and was a huge dynamic, in the game there were a lot of TASTEFUL scenes that developed their love for one another. It basically culminates in the experience that was shown in the OVA . The pacing and ratio of H scene to non-H scene I felt was spot-on, but I don't think it was very hard for the folks at Fuguriya and chuchu to really get it right, considering how easy it is and the source material >_> The premise of the OVA itself is actually very simple, and well, very much easy to believe... At least for me it was. Fortunately, it is already subbed - I actually didn't know this when I was watching it, but it doesn't really matter for me if there's a sub or not :3 So I suppose it really boils down to that - playing the game explains some questions one might be having about this OVA that may seem suspect or unclear to them. But once you do, and then see the OVA again, you will really realize just how beautifully romantic it is.

I really cried, because it was just so beautiful. I had butterflies in my stomach. I'm really such a sappy person, I know, but I really am a sucker for these things. Anyway, if you don't mind H and really like romance, you'll probably really like this.

I just read pretty much all of Rurouni Kenshin in a week (100 chapters or so today alone :V).

I am blown away.

And with that, I bid onemanga farewell. =O

as for the show, call it yuri sexings all you like, my personal feel: this is some seriously cute shit, so cute, I feel my heart stopped for a few seconds.

Because you mentioned "translated" I'm assuming you mean the now out-of-stock A Couple's Christmas, initially released at C71.

The couple was the very first one introduced, Yuuna and Nanami. :3

Sock rants about a show he doesn't like: Mayoineko Overrun
« Reply #345 on: August 02, 2010, 10:44:09 PM »
WARNING! OVER SIZED LIKELY NONSENSICAL RANT AHEAD!

I got bored one day, and decided to find a mediocre anime to watch and make fun of. Kampfer already had an abridged series dedicated to it, so I looked up another show and watched Mayoineko Overrun instead.

And I still regret it to this day.

I knew it was going to be below average, but any expectation I had for the show immediately exploded with the force of a super nova when I watched a clip about the show?s high school fighting over whether the girls should wear bloomers or spats. But, being the overtly forgiving guy I am, I decided to give the show more a chance and watched the first episode. I wish to share my suffering impressions with you:

It opens up with a little girl with an annoying voice crying about not being an orphan, or something like that. Oh, and the crying girl gets a panty shot as well. Normally I would give the show the benefit of the doubt, as the girl was using her dress to wipe her tears, but this show makes fills me with so much rage and misery at its sheer badness that I?m actively looking for more reasons to hate it. After that scene we?re introduced to a pair of blue stripped panties.

How endearing!

I have to say, I am very impressed how quickly and completely the show undermines the slight attempt at drama in the previous scene. I had to give it at least a giggle, though not for the reason the animators were hoping for.

We?re then shown OP song, which is sung by a group of baby-voiced women and uses the word ?nyaa? to an obnoxious degree. It?s here that I see another thing that legitimately bugs me about this show: the character designs, specifically the girls. We have three girls shown in the OP not counting the huge boobied motherly figure-like one. One girl is a long haired Rei-clone with cat ears, and the other two are lifted wholesale from the ?Tsundere fetish clich? 101? book. They do the indignant blushing bit, their faces are perpetually scowling while still being cute and rounded; I almost expect them to only be able to say ?It?s not like I like you or anything!?, like some kind of humanoid Pokemon. On top of all that, both of them are designed very, VERY similarly to each other, to the point that the only significant difference is that one of them is short. The lack of inspiration in these designs is outright miraculous. Hell, I?ve drawn throwaway characters that are more inspired than these set of bland girls.

After the OP is over, we?re introduced to our main character, which is more accurately described as a cardboard cutout, though I personally like to think of him as a blow-up doll. Our Normal High School Student Guy?, who lives with his currently abscent sister at a cake shop, is complaining about his lady friend, literally referring to her as ?That girl with the blue stripped panties?. He says her name immediately after, Serizawa Fumino to those who actually care, but I?ll just keep calling her ?Blue Stripes? because she really doesn?t have enough personality to warrant an actual name. Anyway, our blow-up doll goes on about how Blue Stripes is a complete liar and is never honest. Now, it would have been mildly entertaining to see the girl making a thousand little white lies, but since this show sucks, we?re instead treated to a TUNSDERE MONTAGE! Filled to the brim with indignant blushing, ?humph!?s, and multiple uses of the word ?baka?. I?m glad to see the animators are being honest about how much personality their heroine has, i.e. less than a rock. Blow-up doll keeps complaining to the audience about the girl?s lies as he walks out of the door to walk to school. Blue Stripes is waiting for him and, shockingly, declares she wasn?t waiting for his with a ?humph? and an indignant blush.

?We?re now reaching the 3 minute mark?.waaaahh?.

The next scene opens up with Blue Stripes? thigh high covered legs. This single animation takes up a good 40% of the scene. We?re then introduced to one of blow-up doll?s annoying friends, who I will call ?Woman Hating Otaku Stereotype?. He is only notable because he manages to be the most detestable waste of animation in the entire show. I would love nothing more than to run this guy over with lawnmower five times. Predictably, Woman Hating Otaku Stereotype hates Blue Stripes because she?s ?3D?, and that only ?2D? girls can wear blue stripped panties and thigh highs.

?This exchange is SO stupid that it makes my head hurt. Blue Stripes punches him, I cheer, and that?s all the words I?m going to waste on that. Oh, and another one of Blow up doll?s friends show up. I?m calling him Furniture because that?s his role in this episode. After another minute of staring at Blue Stripes? thigh highs, and a quick glimpse of cat ears, the group finally makes it to school. After some Normal High School Life? scenes and some exposition from Blow-up doll about the school, we?re introduced to a loli wearing a school swimsuit?in a normal classroom. Why is she wearing a school swimsuit in a classroom? It?s because:

1. This show sucks
2. The lolicons need something to fap to.
3. Repeat reasons 1 and 2 five more time.

This girl is Umenomori Chise, who will be hereby named Otakuloli, because she?s an otaku, who happens to be a loli. Well, actually she?s just petite, but ?petite? in this context is just another way of saying ?She?s not 12! She?s really *insert ridiculous age number here*?.  Like other characters similar to her, she enjoys referencing geeky things and dressing up in fetishzied clothing (like aforementioned school swimsuit). But she lacks the low confidence, introversive personality, and questionable hygiene an otaku would actually have. If she did have those things, she?d be rendered immediately unfappable, and we can?t have that in our pandering harem show, can we? Anyway, Otakuloli is really rich and has her maids set up a blind so they can dress her in the middle of the class. Tasteful!

Otakuloli starts commanding Blow-up doll to dress up as a giant super robot from a fake anime. She then goes on to commanding Blue stripes to dress up as scantily clad female character from aforementioned fake anime. Blue Stripes doesn?t take this well, and her and Otakuloli get into an argument. Blue Stripes, calls Otakuloli a baby with a middle school girl?s body, Otakuloli takes great offense to that,  and Otakuloli?s maid walks from under the blind and it falls for some reason, revealing Otakuloli?s naked body. Alrighty! Lolicons, your start fapping in 3?2?!

Stuff happens; Otakuloli tearfully commands Blow-up doll to shake her hand for some reason, he does so, and Blue Stripes, in a shocking display of character depth, ?hmph?s indignantly at this. In the following scene Otakuloli is in a predictably fancy car, speaking with her maids. In a surprisingly amusing (and by ?amusing? I mean ?doesn?t make me beat my head against a wall?) scene, Otakuloli predictably asks whether her breats are small, and the maid responds with ?Yes, your chest I small and beautiful?. Otakuloli then asks her other mait whether her figure is child-like, which the other maid responds with ?Yes, your figure is like that of a fairy who has been blessed by the gods?. This may be giving the episode too much credit (i.e. ANY credit), but I found this exchange almost giggle worthy. After this, Otakuloli (I sure have been using that name a lot in the last few paragraphs), is still going on about people getting people to cosplay as her favorite super robot show characters. She says she needs someone almost as cute as her to play as the female lead when the camera cuts to a pair of bare thighs, though it?s not Blue Stripes?.

More stuff happens, there?s an important cake missing, and Woman Hating Otaku Stereotype thinks some kid stole it. The kid claims that a big human sized cat ate. The kid?s known for being a liar, but Blue Stripes claim she saw a cat as her earlier in the day and?you know what, this post has gone on long enough and it?s more detail than this show deserves so I?ll just rush through the rest of it:

Blue Stripes and the kid go looking for the cat. Otakuloli brings in the previously mentioned pair of thighs into her home, that?s predictably loaded with geek stuff, makes the thighs dress up as a ninja, and then the thighs escape. Blow-up doll and Furniture start baking another cake while Woman Hating Otaku Stereotype keeps being annoying. Some more stuff happens, which includes a miad team and a chicken, Blue Stripes has a flashback about being an orphan, Blow-up doll and Otakuloli have some bonding time, there?s a car crash, a chase scene and finally, FINALLY, we reach the end, where we learn the identity of the pair of thighs from earlier. Apparently she?s a ninja maid catgirl with red eyes, and the episode ends with the catgirl saying her first line: ?Nyaa?.

?If you couldn?t tell from the previous 1000 words, I really hate this show. I seriously never watched an anime that ticked me off so much, not even Queen?s Blade and Ultimate Girls. This show is just?ARGH! And to top it all off, My laptop screen stopped working after I watched this. This show was so bad that my own computer killed itself!

I apologize for ranting, please carry on.

I'm pretty sure it isn't technically his series.  I believe it started as a series of light novels by someone else and he just did the manga art while throwing in various To-Love-ru references.

Apparently, Thomas the Tank Engine isn't one to take crap from anyone.

Recent watches, ridiculously short reviews, etc.

Brack Rock Shoota: Meh.

Cencoroll: Short, entertaining. A sequel may or may not ruin it.

Lain: Thought provoking, though not profound. A fairly relaxing, very entertaining show.

Darker than black: Definitely one of the better Anime out there. The episodal format of S1 was especially nice for "watching it casually", as the end of each 2 episode arc left me fairly satisfied, unlike other shows which are funner to watch in one or two sessions. Everything about it was pretty much awesome.

Blue Submarine no. 6: It was pretty good, if you ask me. The plot was unique (based off of what i've seen). Decent characters, decent animation, cool battle scenes and good writing overall. It's worth a rewatch or two.

Last Exile: Almost finished with this. Insofar, the plot is really interesting, the characters are likable, and the universe is sort of fascinating. It's pretty good.

True, but it wouldn't have been as satisfying to just say "it shitsux, don't watch it".  :3

Just wanted to say, the second season of Darker than Black is rather different as it ditches the 2 episodes arcs and Hei doesn't get as much focus. The OVAs should be watched though, I advise you save them for last so you finish strong.

My connection's pretty bad, so I was only able to get 12 minutes of it.

Of course, I haven't read any of the story, so I'm not qualified to talk about that yet. Guess the only thing that's left to talk about is...
Spoiler:
Well, is it a trend to start H with an H scene? Hmm.

The Mai x Reo pairing is quite cute, actually. Kind of shows the two kinds of love between both, although there's not much explanation going on (not that I was expecting any, though) but Reo's confession was also cute?

Her personality doesn't seem generic either. She doesn't really strike me as tsundere. Maybe it's because I don't watch this sort of thing often. =/

And I'm also quite glad that there's no rape.
I have to watch the rest of it, though. Yes, I'm going to write about this later on as well.

That said, it's time to change my avatar.

I've been postponing this for 3 days.

Welp, I finished Railgun the other day. And it had way more Railgun than Index had Index :*
I'd already liked Mikoto from To Aru Majutsu, so I was looking foward to this, and dear atheism, I was not disappoint.
The show is all kinds of badass and awesome.
I'm in love with the whole concept of Academy City, science and everything, a perfect society focused only on the development of science. It's every skeptical bastard(like me)'s dream.
Character development is perfect. No character fell down to a stupid stereotype (like Blue Stripes there).
Before I even finished the show I found myself ordering a Mikoto figure from our Forza. The show is just that good.
To Aru Majutsu was a great watch, To Aru Kagaku was a perfect watch.

Also I'll refrain from making a paragraph on how cute Mikoto is, because goddamn it would take a while <3~
