Update + BLEACH Vs NOBLESSE

As the Autumn season of anime ends in the next couple of weeks, I'm obliged to consider how I never finished HALF of what I begun ~which I will post on soon~, and hope the winter season comes with better goodies ~which I've already posted on~.

An update on BLEACH (manga) is don't bother with this week's chapter (Ch. 478), it genuinely serves NO purpose. I wonder if that the end to this storyline and how many people think Kubo should have stopped when he was on top? This whole Fullbring arc felt like ridiculous filler, with random battles and transformation to get you excited. ~which somewhat worked~


What you SHOULD be reading is the grand Manhwa Webtoon that is NOBLESSE!!! Its honestly consistently good with fabulous characters and plot development and battles!

So head over to http://egscans.com/ and INDULGE yourselves. I happen to read a lot of their projects cause they are rather interesting and great quality.


Until next time!

Bleach! 476

The Lost

The battle rages on and we're yet again reminded how twisted and self-centered soul society really is.

Isn't Ginjo basically what Aizen worked to become?? 

If thats the case shouldn't he be stronger? Or is Ichigo just in top form.

Hitsugaya's explanation got me upset. Like really?! You still doubted him?! Planned to kill him?!

Is Rukia's trust the only one he's gained after EVERYTHING! 

Soul society peeps maybe be cool but they're ass-holes.

BLEACH! The New BANKAI

ICHIGO YOU TRANSFORMING BAMF!!

From Ch. 475 Shades of the Bond 

I feel like the storyline is very superficial. Like once he beats Ginjo then what?? Plus the dude don't seem THAT strong. Was this suppose to be a short arc to show how Ichigo got his powers back and then the end for BLEACH! ??

Anime Winter Season 2012

http://i.minus.com/ibnsXMO3Hdpt1R.jpg

Certainly watching:

• New Prince of Tennis (Yay Ryoma-sama!)
• Natsume Yuujinchou shi ^^
• Daily Lives of High School Boys (Reminds me of Kimi to Boku)
• Brave 10 (Reminds me of Shinsengumi Kitan) 

Checking out:

• Inu x Boku SS
• Papa no lu Koto o Kikinasai!
• PoyoPoyo Kansatsu Nikki
• Ano Natsu de Matteru

I can't help but think there is a distinct lack of shounen action. Disappointing.

Looking forward for my Tennis Oujis!!

Enjoy!

Update

 I'm not a very organised person.

This was never meant to be a every-episode coverage and review blog.

Just the good episodes, where there is a change in plot will get reviewed ~or talked about really~.

This is because most the recent episodes/anime this season have a general episodic storyline that have the same theme, eg. Ben-to, Phi Brain,  Tamayura Hitotose, Working! etc. Literally like ALL of them. So I'd just be saying the same thing over and over again.

Which is why it may SEEM the only ones I talk about are Chihayafuru, Nurarihyon no Mago, and Kimi to Boku. But its not exclusive. 

So! If there is something to talk about, it will be talked about. :)

Next stop... a double bill ~cus I didn't watch last weeks'~ of Nurarihyon no Mago!!

xoxo

Being lazy....

I watched:

I HATED, LIKED, SORT of LIKED, and was INDIFFERENT and INDIFFERENT to them respectively. 

I am giving Maji ONE MORE CHANCE to go back to the fighting and leave all the naked, ero, whilst talking for a really long time, thing its been doing. 

xoxo

Synergy Effect and a New Record

Chapter 152 of  Bakuman is out! 

Basically dealt with the releasing of both one-shots and the aftermaths. 

Will they win?? Will they get higher than 692?! 

Should I take Nizuma's quietness as proof of that since he is so psychic?!!

AAAAhhhhh! I need to know!

DON'T MAKE ME WAIT TILL NEXT WEEK!!!

~This review (if you could call it that) served no purpose~

xoxo

Love in the Working!! Place

Episode 4 of  Working!! is out and it had me ROLLING!

Half-arsed LOVE CONFESSIONS all round with Soma-san having the time of his life! 

We meet the infamous missing wife! Inami-san finds out of Sato's unrequited love and hilariously offers her condolences! And Yamada-san is keen on getting those adoption papers! ~what is the story with her family?~

Overall, good progress with everyone and the humour was on another level this episode! Its funny without forcing it, cus the character's personality invites it.

There was also NO punching, which lost its punch-line power back in S1.

I WANT SATO TO CONFESS!

Loving it. :)

xoxo



FANGIRLMeter was high!

Action!

Guilty Crown ep 2 is out!

It proved to have a lot more action than fanservice ~thank god for that~ but whether that will maintain now that it shifts to a high school setting with Inori, who knows? ~one can only hope~

The face of  PURE EVIL was also shown to be astonishingly cute:

His threat, "I'll tell my daddy," just screamed DRACO to me!

But other than that he is pure filth, the perfect villain with momma issues, "All she did was give birth to you."

Story is building up nicely! Big hopes.

xoxo

Un-Go?!

So like....the real culprit never takes the blame?? To save the government and officials face?

Interesting...

xoxo

Yoshino got BACK!

Sekai ichi Hatsukoi ep.3 is out and we move on to the case of  Yoshino Chiaki!

Happy we're checking out this couple for a few episodes.


"Don't you dare draw your own conclusions about my feelings, and then become all emo over it!"


Waah, the way I squealed and laughed! Yoshino got back! ~ surprisingly~ If he let the misunderstanding occur I would have been soooo annoyed.

I'm so glad that Yoshino is nothing like Onodera!! Too much of Ritsu's "YES means NO" would drive me insane. ~as much as I love him~

Perhaps what Onodera's case needs is another man to show interest in him, instead of the awkwardness that is Takano and Yokozawa. ~I only see him as a friend~

Fridays are always great with the greatest first love-story!

xoxo



FANGIRLMeter was so HIGH!

Skip, Skip, Skip to the Beat

Skip Beat! ch. 181 is out my darling!

THEY SHARED A BED!!


Slowly, slowly, they progress into dangerous ~lovely~ territories but the storyline never fails to go off on an amazing tangent.

Where is the Ren who practically admitted his feelings during the Valentine saga...??

They needs to get together already...and let the Shou vs Ren battle begin!

Atleast kiss! Is that asking for too much after 181 chapters??

Shou has such a lead on Ren when its to do with Kyoko. I feel like she feels his presence more.

Anyway its not like Shou is anywhere in the current sibling storyline.

This series updates painfully slow...sometimes taking even longer than a month, so I'm very edgy.


SKIP BEAT! is also the greatest Shoujo there is and they should just let out S2 already! Theres plenty of story to cover it!


xoxo

Not really saying much

Watched Tamayura Hitotse and Working!! episodes 3 today.

They're both very mellow and just stories.

Tamayura Hitotse is boring me a bit but Working!! is funny and always a good watch!


xoxo

Chihayafuru

CHIHAYAFURU Episode 3 brought tears to my eyes!

I love this! Completely ADORE this!

I hope grown-up Arata is true to his feelings as a child. ie. He does not act cold to Chihaya. 

I can't wait to meet him as an adult!

aaaaaaah....I want MORE! 

It's cute, competitive, funny...

IT TOO MUCH AWESOMENESS!

I'm soo happy with this project. 

xoxo

FANGIRLMeter was so high!

You and I and Yokai Battles

KIMI TO BOKU

I am so in love with this project. After the recent 3rd episode I just went to the manga to satisfy my cravings for more!

Its so mellow and definitely the kind of story where it would NOT have worked out if the characters were boring to watch as the storyline is basically non-existent. =) ~I like Kaname best~

The following description is from mangaupdates:

Shun, Kaname, and the twins Yuuki and Yuuta have been friends since kindergarten. It's a little hard to tell if they actually get along or not - but even as high-school students, they hang out together. Recently, they've had a new addition; a half-Japanese transfer student Chizuru, who has started to liven up the group. This manga is really just about their daily lives, which aren't particularly passionate or exciting. A tranquil and sometimes comedic story of youthful friendship.

Watch it. Read it. It'll make you smile and laugh. ^^

__________________________________________________________________

Nurarihyon No Mago ep16 is out!

Basically, Rikou is getting trained by Gyuki and some other old yokai, and is told to surpass not only his father and grandfather but himself too. 

Kubinashi loses himself in anger and goes in a murder rampage.

The Kyoto Yokai are hunting for livers, and the Nijo Castle appeared with the first seal broken.

Two main Kyoto Yokai appear: Ibaraki Doji and Shokera.

Their battle begins with Kubinashi and the Onmyoji Akifusa Keikain.

Nothing unexpected happened, nor did the battles last much in this episode so hopefully the next would be much more exciting. From what I understand as Rikou is off training we will get to see a lot more of his subordinates battles, which I'm looking forward to. 

xoxo

FANGIRLMeter was high but enjoyed Kimi to Boku more than Nurarihyon this week.

The Manga about Mangas

Bakuman ch151 was released: Zombies and Demons

We got the down-low on the plots and characters for each of Ashirogi Muto and Nizuma's new one shot- hopefully sterilization.  

Ashirogi Muto hope to go head to head with Nizuma knowing he has a new one shot idea, while Nizuma is still unaware of their challenge. 

The boys ~as usual~ are ever super excited about their new work. 

~sigh~ I really want Ashirogi Muto to get first place with their one shot. Its been a long time coming! 

We need an anime for one of their works already!!

What do you think will happen?

Will their Demon of Justice be the anime they always wanted??

Will it at least beat Nizuma-kun's one shot?

xoxo

Once a month feels like forever

Kuroshitsuji ch.62 was released!

Following Sebastian's murder, we have entered his Record and go back to when Ciel first made his contract with him. ~and named him after his dog, lol~

It nice to see their interactions and that Sebastian didn't start off perfect but had to learn to adjust for the human child his Earl is. Like ever I love the care yet clash between the two. <3


Want to get back to the main story, however, cus the Demon can't die!!





Right?




xoxo

Ben-to

Basically, they battle at supermarkets for newly discounted half-price Bentos. 

Its hard to take this seriously. 

Its not meant to be taken seriously.

I want to call it ridiculous.

But to be honest as far as anime goes its not THAT ridiculous. 

I got over thinking things like ~They're in the middle of the store!!~

I get the feeling that this will have much too many characters involved.

Do you think the Wizard and the Ice Witch got history/ are related?

Also the names... *sigh*

Its a good to-pass-time anime. 

xoxo

FANGIRLMeter was somewhat LOW. 

Why did I wait so long?

Watched it and it was AWESOME!! The story keeps getting deeper. As much as I wanted Rikou to go berserk and whoop Tsuchigumo ass, its more believable to lose and train. ~just don't spend too long with it~ 
There was twice in this episode when each Tsurara and Rikou went crazy angry for the other and twice we were disappointed with the lack of real damage. ~screw the finger ~  

Also is there something akin to LOVE with Yuki-onna (Tsurara) cus he didn't flip out when the others where hurt. ~but mentioned them all of course~

I think she was just the catalyst.

Also GYUKIIIIIIIIIIII!! <3 I always remember him from the very start of Nurarihyon, and wondered why the elder of the Nura and allied clans don't aid Rikou. They're not part of his 100 demon parade, but you know, help a grandson out. 

Aaah, an ever satisfying anime. I read the manga every once in a while but I don't want to ruin the anime for myself, so I don't do it too much. 

Do you read the manga? If so do you watch the anime too?

What did you think of the episode and how the story is shaping up?

Will it end by ep24?

Personally I think they'll be done with Hagoromo Gitsune by the end of S2 but they will still have to deal with the so called Nue. 

~Nine more episodes~

xoxo

Confession

I have yet to watch ep15 of Nurarihyon No Mago S2.

I love the anime. I see it there subbed. I am being un-reasonably lazy.

Every night I said I'll watch it tomorrow.

Today was busy anyway.

Tomorrow for sure!


xoxo

Waaah...a boring day followed by a FULL one

The first episodes of Guilty Crown and Un-Go were released and I am happy to continue watching both. ^^

They're not great but definitely watch-able. Guilty Crown animation was pretty cool but as always its the 'school boy mystery power and that girl' story which will annoy me eventually. ~but it might be worth watching just for Kai~ 

Un-Go is a detective story with not much mystery...just story. Its no Detective Conan. The characters are more or less what is mysterious. ~the female Inga??~

Either way they both passed the first episode hurdle... I feel like I'm likely to drop one (if not both) by a few weeks unless the substance picks up. 

If you liked it/ hated it/ loved it, let me know and why? 

Also, today I watched:

• Tamayura Hitotose ep2, which proved to be a light and easy watch of ~I think~ a coming to age story. No romances in the horizon...in fact no possible boy candidates. 

• And ever a fun watch: The IDOLM@STER ep15 was up. 

• And ever so HOT, CUTE, ENDEARING, and also that nagging feeling of 'Get on with it already!!' Sekai Ichi Hatsukoi S2 ep2. 

xoxo

FANGIRLMeter was highest with Sekai Ichi Hatsukoi.
