Anime Review Winter Season

Winter 2015 Anime Reviews

Originally written circa Jan 2015

Kantai Collection – exactly what I wanted. boats and girls. good shit. good animation, good character design, good concept that i like cute girls, boats. highly anticipated anime based off popular browser game. among top of season. good shit

Yuri Kuma Arashi – some original show about some gay women and some gay alien bear couples, alien bears eat girls. yuri. really strange. art direction is what the hell, it’s good but very pastel looking. flow is what the hell, dont’ know what the hell is going on. not for me. maybe for gay women? don’t know what the target audience is for this show

Shinmai Maou no Testament – first 10-15 minutes is some of the most bait and generic anime plot premises ever and it feels off. I knew something was up. ususally for this kind of haremish feeling show there is usually a pull or extra thing that tries to seperate it from the usual and i was right. later on magic demons, hero, ninjas unvieled. girls are ok, kinda generic looking and fill usual archtypes. main dude is OK. not a wuss but still kinda annoying. boobs look weird shaped. kinda bad. forgetable. so-so

Binan Koukou Chikyuu Bouei-bu Love! – magical boys show. gayyyyy. lol. i guess they wanted to try the magical girls thing except for guys. the only problem is that all of the guys look like shit and standard bishouhen archtypes. transformation clothes so ugly and jokes. bad. not for me. I don’t even think women would like this. if anything watch for jokes

Absolute Duo – magical kidz summonz dem weaponz and shiz. fight hard to enter magic fighting school. at entrance cermony goth girl student pres says all new enterance have to fight the person beside them. only the person who wins gets to enter. main dude is pretty wussy. made friends with the girl beside her already. relutant fighting ensues. guy is shit, has no weapon only has a shield summon. figures for this kind of bitch main. still wins. super pro white haired girl notices him. takes interest. next day main dude in class sits with in class, force friend partners etc. main dudes name is THOR KOKONOE. WTF LOL. white hair girl likes him because that is name of thunder god THOR. lol. kinda generic bad. maybe watch more. generic char designs and premise. girl char is so-so

Military! – some bad 5 minute show about tanks and some bullshit. whatever.

Saekano – this is techincally episode 0 so it may explain what is was lacking anything. basically from what i gather. main dude is in game making club. club is all girls. dude wants to make a game for comiket. you can fill in the plot for there. is reminds me of some ero anime but ye, basically same premise. girls are ok. mild artsy. comedy. funny. supposed to be but not that funny to me, at least because it’s episode 0 i guess. feels shaft-ish. maybe watch more, has potential once i maybe get to see what it’s about for realz. ok.

THE iDOLM@STER CINDERELLA GIRLS – based off social mobile game of the same name. spin-off of idolmaster franchise. actually not bad. kinda like it. the character designs are very good and the girls i’ve seen all are pretty cute. very good animation. beautiful backgrounds. idol stories etc. so far pretty chill at least from ep 1. i don’t wanna have drama, makes it bullshit. if the entire show is kinda chill-ish slice of like like this, might actually follow this. not bad.

JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure – Stardust Crusaders Egypt Arc – yep. continuation of the legend. good shit man. good shit.

Assassination Classroom – highly anticipated adaption of popular manga of the same anime. pretty good. I like it. basically all the students of this class has to kill their teacher because he is an alien that blew up the moon and if they don’t he will destroy the world next spring. alien teacher looks kinda like a yellow smily octopus with tentacles. he is teacher because that’s the conditions for not destroying the world now, he wants to be teacher. funny. all of the students of the class are made, no empty seats here. good show. will follow

Death Parade – very good show about some god-like people or servants at an afterlife bar or pub determining if people are to be sent to hell or reincarnated/heaven once they die by playing some random games. suspense, artsy but at the same like kinda chill and playful. masterful storytelling and drama. main dude is a chill bartender to makes judgement and administers the tests, pretty cool, looks alot like ginko from mushishi. apparently based off anime movie, readapation etc. will watch more

more to come…
