back then there was Kinema-kan



and now, finally, this:



something worth anticipating :)

to end it off properly for the previous season, K-ON!! had their extra episodes which is slotted to be before the last episode. honestly, the end would have already been done wonderfully with their presumably last episode which Tenshi ni Fureta yo. about K-ON!, much have already been covered when their last episode aired so i wouldn't talk about it again. Mitsudomoe, is a wonderful series as well, the 1st few episodes went rather well, with laughs picking up here and there and more of the sister's personalities. It is a fun-to-watch series too. However, it felt that there was too much of misunderstandings in one particular episode (can't really remember which exactly), but luckily that overdose didn't carry on for long :) Following up, another hilarious series: Seitokai Yakuindomo. well, it bears much similarity with Seitokai no Ichizon and both are hilarious in their own ways. slice-of-life series have always grabbed my attention and if you're someone who laughs hard at mature jokes, this is the show for you. Their antics are funny, their jokes are funny, basically, its just hilarious :D could have added more to character developments as well, it felt sad when the relationship hints between Tsuda and Shino went as a misunderstanding D: with that, fall 2010 begins!


FALL 2010


and it begins:

many series have already started running and there are already some that had "grabbed" my attention which i might continue watching / blog in the future. i wouldn't be blogging about the 1st episodes of the series until i reaffirm that i'll continue with it, wouldn't want to leave things hanging around.

starting off:

To Aru Majutsu no Index II

the 1st episode somehow lacked something crucial, there wasn't much to make anyone continue watching this series. honestly, the 1st episode just started off with a mage appearing, out of nowhere, and blast through Touma's house, later kidnaps Index in an attempt to save someone (typical classical setting) and Touma rescues Index later, showed off his Imagine Breaker and said some "cool" sentences. If they're following up with the previous season, at least do try and make something more different... it's just weird watching the 2nd season of Index, just felt very different from the time i watched their 1st season which had more punch to it. would appreciate it if they would quickly bring in the climax from the novels too, it'll be waay more interesting. would see how the next few episodes go =/



Bakuman

adapted from the manga, it sure feels great to see everything animated out. having only just a few episodes for the series and its manga uncompleted, this series would most probably end when their 1st series get serialized. happy ending? not exactly, but you can always follow up with their manga after the series end. a much promising series (i've already known about the storyline too and its great :D) recommended to watch or read the manga as well :)

Shinryaku! Ika Musume

another slice-of-life comedy series for fall 2010. a 3 part story per episode is generally how the episodes run. and it begins with this girl, apparently a squid, wanting to take revenge on humans for harming the sea. she swings her tentacles around, just ordered around, and spits out squid ink .__. as compared to the other similar type of series, this is weaker in its jokes. so its watchable to kill time.

The World God Only Knows

i have been waiting for this! :D from their manga, it was definitely an awesome series to follow and with its animated version, things just can't get any better than this :D according to their OP, it seems that there are only a few targets introduced in the series, and most probably ending before they reach Kusunoki's arc. and Baka to Test's Yoshii returns in this series! awesome combination of seiyuu and character as well. the 1st episode took off with the 1st heroine captured and Elsee entering the school as Keima's sister. story's seem to be moving fast too with 1 heroine captured in just one episode. it might seem rather rushed so i'm hoping for them to slow down just a bit for the future episodes.

For the manga, yet another goddess is revealed, from Kanon this time, named Apollo. Things didn't go well after Kanon apparently remembers her time with Keima and confesses to him as well. However, before more could be explained, Kanon gets attacked by a mysterious person from hell and Apollo seems to have been killed (in just one blow O.O), note "seems". Keima discovers an injured Kanon later and the chapter ends. having another goddess appearing and disappearing immediately could have taken a heavy blow on Keima as well since he had finally found another goddess with Tenri's request. and it'll be slightly disappointing when someone, who remembers about their "capture", will forget about it again =X



SUPERB opening, special song dedicated to the series and amazing start, honestly, i was blown away when the opening started :)

Sora no Otoshimono Forte

as a continuation from the 1st season, more laughs and much much more seriousness. the 1st episode went on with the "Dive" game arc and Sugata starts to know about Synapse and the link between Tomoko's dream with Synapse and with the end of the 1st episode, Astraea lands and heads for Tomoki. The 2nd episode went with the encounter with Astraea but had also brought in the 3 omake chapters from the manga. and with its end, Astraea accidentally reveals about Tomoki's link with Synapse, reaffirming Sugata's perception on it. from its OP too, Chaos seem to be there and i am definitely waiting for that climax to arrive. "Let's play dolly..."

for the manga, after Hiyori's arc, i was hoping more of the connection between the angels and the downers and also the "unreal" humans around Tomoki. Could Tomoki be unreal and his real self was the one on top of all the angels? (well, its possible...) their latest 2 chapters were funny but at the same time, seems unneeded too.



"Let's Play Dolly..."

MM!

another comedy series that revolves around 2-3 students who had went to the special club to receive some help to "cure" their special illnesses, ranging from being a masochist, being afraid of men and also cross-dressing. Interesting series from the start, nothing much to talk about too, seems more like in the center of being a slice-of-life to a normal series.

.

.

tactically, among the series, the series that i should be covering would be:

To Aru Majutsu no Index II
The World God Only Knows
Bakuman
MM!
