La Corda d’Oro Blue Sky – show for women about classical music and violin playing. bunch of pretty boys and whatever one girl. for what it is, good character designs but just boring imo. not much appeal here other than if you like violin classical and the gay men, but even for women there is probably better out there
Soredemo Sekai wa Utsukushii – not bad show but not really my thing. basically princess from some shit unknown country goes on boat to powerful infamous country to get married to the king for political reasons. she gets there early and wanders the city realzing her country is super poor, she is unknown, people rob her, can’t find place to stay etc. some nice family takes her in helps her, laughs at her claim. some stuff happens and eventually gets to captial to meet the king, he is like a young good looking guy, contray to reputation etc. lean towards female audiences, mild funny, main girl is alright, character design is ho-hum, concept ok. drop still
Rowdy Sumo Wrestler Matsutaro – horrible show with little or no redeeming qualities. i don’t know who this is targeted at because the titular main character is a obnoxious asshole. NO GOOD QUALITIES TO BE SEEN IN THIS MAN WHATSOEVER. am i supposed to laugh as he steals an old mans lunch? when he steals candy from a baby? when he bullies a truck driver to carry some shit? i don’t know if it gets better and he realizes the error of his ways but right now, this is probably one of the worst shows this season
Bokura wa Minna Kawaisou – show about a guy who likes a girl he sees in school but doesn’t know. comedy, drama, romance. he has to live in a communal doom/housing taken care of by this old women with random people, not even students. funney interesting roomates and other residences, good looking girls. the girl he likes also lives at the house he usual reaction. decent character designs, concept, animation is good but shit, this show loves lensflares and window light. might watch more not bad.
Dragon Collection – bad show. card game. beybey level bullshit. 10 minutes, garbage, bad everything. carry on.
Brynhildr in the Darkness – serious show but it’s kinda hard to tell off first ep what it’s about. main dude liked this girl when he was a kid, but the girl died because of him and he’s regretted it. girl said aliens existed before she died and dude now grown up in hs, goes to telescope to look at the stars for aliens etc for whatever sentimential reasons etc. transfer student appears. looks like girl that died. he gets hyped and emotional. girl says he doesn’t know him. later tells him that he will die. advice to stay alive. guy can’t believe, defies advice, guy almost dies, girls saves him with magical/science power. not bad. the opening of the show has no vocal, kinda dubstebby, suggusts that they are dead/clones/zombies/alien, hard to say. might watch more
Baby Steps – crap tennis show. horrible character designs, concept and execution. i am not sure who this is targeted towards, not for women since all the guys look like shit, not for men, since the pacing is boring and slow no women. bad
Mahou Shoujo Taisen – some 5 minute magical girl thing by gainax. not bad, good designs, animation. can’t say for plot, as 5min and superquick. whatever
No Game No Life – brother little sister neet really good a games. so good, god of otherworld invites them to a alternate fantasy world where all things a decided by games, wars, rules, kings etc. they accept, adventure begins etc. pretty good show. i like. good animation, good character designs, concept. animation is kinda what the hell though because they use really saturated bright colors and slightly faded/blur overlays. interesting but not good if you are on drugs or have epilopsy. loli sister is pretty cute, the guy is tolerable not bad. will watch, one of the season better
selector infected WIXOSS – card game anime but it’s actually not bad so far. kinda like. good designs, good concept, good atmosphere and style. it’s probably meant to sell cards but it’s not being bait and actually has a legitamate story maybe worth watching. semi-serious mixing in some magical girl madoka kinda feelings. girl no friends, brother gives cards, try this, girl looks at cards, card can move, communicate, freak out, put card down. school, card game is popular, girl sees her. wants to play, says she is special because of special card she has, grant wishes if you win. not baddd, might watch more.
