Durarara!!x2 Ten


Second cours of the second Durarara!! season.

Half a year after the turmoil that rocked the entire city of Ikebukuro, peace has once again returned to the city, and people are living each day normally. The high school students enjoy their days of youth as the strongest and most dangerous man of Ikebukuro works diligently. The informant plots (or plans) a new scheme and the headless rider is pursued by the cops as she rides through the night... But soon this normal will be cut short by the abnormal. Slowly but surely, the unknown will seize the city and face an all new storm.



And DRRR continues! I really like this anime so of course I wanted see more, but still this ore the first cours of this season cant beat the first season of DRRR. There is some new characters and actually the biggest  change comes with Ryuugamine's new approach to dealing with the Dollars. Ryuugamine isn't only one who gets much attention though. In this season Izaya have even more screen time~~ Still it feels like that it can't beat the first season. But this is actually better than the first cours of this second season~ 

In the end I don't have much to say even though I really liked this. But I must say that Durarara has continued maybe too long, so even though this is really good with awesome characters, I really hope that it's going to end for it's own good :/. 

And of course DRRR have great casting as many may know and that's why I must mention couple of the greatest ones; Kamiya Hiroshi (of course <3), Ono Daisuke, Kaji Yuuki, Miyano Mamuro, Hanazawa Kana, Nakamura Yuuichi, Yamaguchi Keppei and Sawashiro Miyuki! Of course there is lot of other great voice actors but I just had to mention couple of them~ 

The end leaves once again open so there will be next season. Well not actually season but final cours of this second season. And it goes with name Durarara!!x2 Ketsu! It's going to come next year though, so we have to wait a little... hopefully it's going to be good. 

Anyway, I think this is all! 
Good night~

Prison School


On the outskirts of Tokyo stands Hachimitsu Private Academy, a storied all-girls boarding school for elite young women full of potential and good breeding. But as the new school year rolls around, one tradition is going out the window: For the first time in the school's long history, boys are being allowed to enroll. But on the first day of school, only five boys make the cut. Kiyoshi Fujino, one of the lucky few, is thrilled by this discovery, his heart leaping with joy at the thought of being surrounded by all those girls, day in and day out. But little does he know of the shocking fate that awaits him.



First I really didn't know if I'm going to watch this or not. Well as you can see, I did watch it. Prison school is just really ecchi anime and of course it includes lot of comedy and because of the comedy part, I managed to watch this somehow. And now when I have seen this I actually could watch next season too... oh dear, what happen.

Like I said this anime is reaally ecchi and it includes among other things, hardcore masochism, a principal obsessed with asses, misunderstandings about two of the guys supposedly being gay for each other, cross dressing, golden showers, a guy shitting himself in class, a girl who sweats about 50 liters per day, a myriad of sexual innuendos, epic speeches about the stupidest things imaginable and god knows what else. Even though this is full of stupid things it somehow make you laugh in every episode. Even though fanservice is big part of this anime, in my opinion this would be better with little less of all that boobs, maybe for example chancing Meiko's character design a little would make big difference already. But this anime is obviously for mans so of course they need fanservice character for this kind of anime (specially when Hana and Mari looks really normal and Hana have even shorts under that skirt).  


The art style and the animation looks really good, but I must say that I'm not big fan of that coloring in this anime. Happily it isn't really bad so it doesn't bother me too much, but I would like little different coloring for this anime though.

All the characters in this anime are quite weird, Our main characters are Kiyoshi, he is quite ordinary main character, he is a level-headed individual who seems to have a strong resolve under hard pressure. Unlike the other boys, he does not let his desires get ahead of him, and tends to be the rational member of the group. Gakuto is a calculating and intelligent person, though relatively lacking in his studies. He is thus the mastermind behind a lot of the organised breakouts in the prison along with Kiyoshi. Andre is a calm, gentle-mannered person who shows a deep care for his friends, often placing them ahead of himself in his relation with them. Andre is the most lecherous member of the boys and is also an extreme masochist. Joe is the sullen oddball of the five boys, who struggles to fit in outside his group of friends (and sometimes within). He suffers from a bloody cough due to severe stomatitis, though the disease is neither chronic nor physically debilitating to him. And Shingo is one of the more lecherous people in the boys. He can be excessively narcissistic at times, holding his physical appearance in high esteem and requesting a hair pomade as a prisoner gift. And of course they're all perverts, whether they admit it or not

Of course Meiko, Mari and Hana are really important characters too!
I'm not really big fan of the characters design in this anime.... Like I said earlier something about Meiko's design. But still there are quite good characters in this anime and even Meiko is pretty good character... when we don't think about her design or the sweat.

Oh, and there is once again my favorite voice actor Kamiya Hiroshi~~ And of course there is others really good voice actors like Hanazawa Kana and Suzumura Kenichi!

But, I think this is all. Overall this is quite good anime (I can't believe that I actually liked this.. ahahahahah...). There is good characters, nice animation (if we don't think about the coloring), really good voice actors and you really can't guess what is going to happen next. I really hope that there would be second season because of the ending.

That's all! Have a nice day~

Gangsta


In the city of Ergastulum, a shady ville filled with made men and petty thieves, whores on the make and cops on the take, there are some deeds too dirty for even its jaded inhabitants to touch. Follow the "Handymen," Nic and Worick, who take care of the jobs no one else will handle. A new group attempts to muscle in on their block and the cops enlist them to weed out the upstarts no questions asked. The only thing is, there's a witness to the slaughter that they absolutely refuse to silence, so they decide to take her in instead.



I was really exited when I heard about this one~ I have read a little the manga and it's really good so that's why I really wanted to see this anime. And of course I wanted see this because this is seinen anime. Unfortunately this anime didn't fill my expectations and I was little disappointed....

I really like the story of Gangsta, but because they made this anime this short it leaves too many questions for them who haven't read the manga. Still I like that they did make this anime goes actually pretty much same as the manga. Still this anime doesn't give much for new viewers, because they put in this 12 episode long anime more than 20 characters and then leaves so many questions. Of course they want more readers for the manga and that's probably the main reason for this anime because there probably wont come season two even though this leaves in cliff hanger...

I really like the art style, but the animation isn't that great all the time. Of course there is some parts where it looks pretty good, but there is too much not so good looking animation. And that's just really sad! I'm not sure why that happened, but maybe they just had really low budget....

The characters are good, specially our main characters Nick and Worick~~ I really like their quite simple character designs. They are really different form each others and it's pretty rare to have deaf character in anime or manga and that they actually use sign language. Their past is really interesting too and I was quite happy that we can see some of it in anime too! Even though this anime wasn't so good I really liked to see those awesome characters in action and hear them speak. 

Overall this anime isn't so great, but nice to watch specially if you have read the manga. So I really recommend to read the manga! This anime is good too but the manga is just A LOT more better.

See you guys soon~

Working!!! (Season 3)


The third season of the Working!! series~~

Set in a family restaurant in Hokkaido, the northern prefecture of Japan, 16-year-old high school student Souta Takanashi works part-time along with his strange co-workers



This one is one of my favorites in this years summer animes! I just love Working so much and I was super happy when I heard that there will be this third season. But unfortunately this is last season of working... and we can see these characters only in Working!!! Lord of the Takanashi which is one hour special. I'm not sure when it come up, but hopefully soon~

This anime is actually same stuff like before, so it won't let you down this time either! This third season of working is funny and cute like the previous seasons. This time I would say that this season is maybe more romantic than those two previous seasons, because there is actually some progress between Satou and Todoroki~ Characters are the best thing in this anime and actually there is two new characters in this season! The masochistic ex-husband of the eldest Takanashi sister and Souta's mysterious mother. 

This third season was really good and it makes me love this anime and those awesome characters even more~ The art style is still really cute and fit very well for this kind of anime and the animation was quite good too~ I really liked the voice actors, but that probably doesn't surprise anyone because there is Kamiya Hiroshi (as Souma) and Ono Daisuke (as Satou)~~ Both of them are one of my favorite voice actors~~ *U*

I think this is all and I probably wont write about Working!!! Lord of the Takanashi even though I will watch it. So this is probably last time when I write about Working T^T. So sad, but I really recommend this anime for those who haven't seen this! It's really good comedy and slice of life anime!

Have a nice day~

Arslan Senki (2015)


In the prosperous kingdom of Pars lies the Royal Capital of Ecbatana, a city of splendor and wonder, ruled by the undefeated and fearsome King Andragoras. Arslan is the young and curious prince of Pars who, despite his best efforts, doesn't seem to have what it takes to be a proper king like his father. At the age of 14, Arslan goes to his first battle and loses everything as the blood-soaked mist of war gives way to scorching flames, bringing him to face the demise of his once glorious kingdom. However, it is Arslan's destiny to be a ruler, and despite the trials that face him, he must now embark on a journey to reclaim his fallen kingdom.



This anime is based on Hiromu Arakawa's and Yoshiki Tanaka's manga and actually because of Hiromu Arakawa, I really wanted to watch this. I don't know why I haven't read the manga yet, but I definitely will! It started publishing in 2013 and it's still ongoing. There is actually another anime with same name and it aired in 1991-1995 and there is only 6 episodes of that. It is based on light novel, which is still publishing if I understand right. Oh, and I must say that the art in those light novels are by Yoshitaka Amano! I probably watch those 6 episodes someday because I heard that it's actually pretty different from this one even though it's kind a same story. 

 I really like the story and each battle scene in it is carefully planned out. The strategy, revenge, betrayal, and other plot twists makes this story really interesting and of course good characters! Even though this anime seems to go quite slowly, every episode still feels really important because of plot twists or character developments.

Like I said, this anime includes good characters and this time the main character is good too! Even though Arslan is maybe little too kind, easy to trick or manipulate and believes that all people are good. He still is quite good main character and really cute one~ Daryun in other hand is almost right opposite of Arslan and actually my favorite from Arslan Senki he is so cool character and I really like that he so loyal for Arslan.

I cant quite say that the animation is really good... There is quite a lot beautifully made scenes but then there is sadly lot of those 3D soldiers (and I really understand that it's lot easier and faster that way but still) and sometimes the animation isn't so good all the time. But overall I like the animation when I don't look too much the 3D soldiers or not so beautifully made scenes... ^^'

But that's all! Overall this is actually really good historical anime (and I recommend this if you like historical genres). There will be second season and it comes next year~

Good night~
(I try write soooooooon! There is still some anims to write about and actually two games too!)

Charlotte


While on the surface Yuu Otosaka appears to be just another charming and intelligent teenager, he has a secret—he has the ability to slip into people's minds and fully control their body for five seconds at a time. Yuu has been using this skill for years to gain the highest grades, which allowed him to enter a prestigious high school.

When the enigmatic Nao Tomori catches Yuu using his power, she coerces him and his sister Ayumi into transferring to Hoshinoumi Academy, a school for students with supernatural abilities. The student council of the school, led by Nao, is tasked with secretly tracking down adolescents who abuse their powers. Yuu is forced to join the student council and together, they face formidable challenges that bring him closer to the shocking truth that his own, seemingly incomplete ability, might be more powerful than he could have ever imagined.



An original story from Jun Maeda, creator of Angel Beats and Clannad.
So you can guess that this anime probably will make you smile and cry. I really liked this one, Charlotte is actually one of my favorites in this years summer animes! Even though I really liked this, Charlotte's end really would need some fixing.

This anime is packed a tonne of good ideas and characters into too small a space. You can see this problem specially in the end. Charlotte would have needed more episodes than just 13. The story goes too fast and not so smoothly all the time. The characters would have needed more time, it would have been fixed if they just would have taken the side stories away and put more time towards developing the main characters.

Otosaka Yu is our main man, a boy who acts cocky and lacking in morals, he starts out as a nice change of pace from your standard high-school male lead. But soon stuff happen and he become quite ordinary main character. That's sad but true. I really was exited when Yu first appeared, he was kind a evil main character so that was new and exiting. It's really is okay that he turned "normal" but that happened too soon and fast... Tomori Nao is our main girl in this anime and she is cold and disinterested. Unlike Yu she stays the whole anime that way what she was in the start and doesn't change a bit. It's really sad that we can't see much character development or good character development in this anime.

But if we don't think those problems too much, this is good anime. There is good characters, animation looks nice, the idea of the story is good and quite interesting one, musics are nice and there some good voice actors too (for example Ono Daisuke and Uchiyama Kouki!).
So overall this is pretty good anime!

I'm sorry that I have been really lazy here, but I try to write about the other summer animes and some others what I have watched lately! ^^'

Have a nice day guys!

Classroom☆Crisis


With aims to one day reach out into the stars, humanity has colonized all the planets of the solar system. This story of young high school hopefuls is set in Fourth Tokyo in a Japanese Martian prefecture. Iris Shirasaki is a third year student/aspiring test pilot. Mizuki Sera is her peer/mechanic and Mizuki's brother Kaito is their homeroom teacher and the young director of the program developing their talents.



This anime seems to be a little underrated and many dropped this after first episodes (or so it seems). I actually liked this and it's little sad that Classroom Crisis haven't get much attention.

A student is transferred in the class as a boss in other to do the downsizing but the story turn after a few episodes into political schemes, family conflicts, hidden past and maybe a little into romance too. The story might start a little slowly and feel little boring in first episodes, but after that it gets quite interesting!

There are quite a lot characters and in short anime like this you can't get a chance to know all the characters better or even half of them. But two of the main characters are actually well developed and with those two I speak about Nagisa and Iris. I really don't want to speak about them much if someone want to see this anime and don't want any spoilers ^^'.

This anime was actually pretty good and watchable, but even though I liked Nagisa, I hoped that there would be more good characters. Classroom Crisis need you to pay attention to understand some political schemes and with this kind of theme this is pretty serious anime even though some times it tries to lighten the mood. I can't say that I liked this really much, but it was good and watchable and it deserve more attention!  

This is all for now! See ya~
(I have been little lazy again, but I try write soon more about other summer animes what I watched!)

Gakkougurashi!


Takeya Yuki is in love with the school. For her, it's a wonderful place, where she enjoys her school activities, especially the activities of her club: School Life Club. The club has Rii-chan as the president, Kurumi-chan as another member, and the teacher, Megu-nee, always there for them. Yes, she is in love with her school... in her mind. Because, for her, the reality of the school and their club's activities is way too hard to be perceived...



This one was really interesting one and I kind a like this! Only thing that really bother me is the ending though. 

Gakkougurashi really surprised me! Mostly because I didn't know anything about this when I started watching. I though that this is going to be something like: cute girls doing cute things. But luckily it wasn't like that (well sometimes a little). Well I kind a spoiled that little thing when I putted those gifs there, so there are zombies and that make this really interesting (yay zombies!~). This anime is quite unique one!

And for those who don't want any more spoilers, this was really interesting anime even though I wanted the end to be more terrible for the characters (I'm so cruel, I know). But because I don't want to spoil more anything, I just say that here comes some spoilers next! 

It's really interesting how they made some of the things from Yuki's view, like the first episode and specially Megu-nee (they fooled me so many times, I never imagined that Megu-nee would be dead too). I really like Psychological genre and maybe that's why I liked this. I was still kind a waiting that Yuki would really breakdown when she finally notices the reality, but that didn't happen. Well she was kinda in little shock, but it was too small reaction after all that things that she have imagined to see. The other characters where kind a interesting too and they had of course different experiences when the zombies started coming. I really liked that they really showed what happen to them. I understand that there must be some mentally stronger character, but still Yuuri and Kurumi seemed sometimes too strong when you think about them. For example Kurumi killed her love and then she was so fast fine about it! Still, I really liked the characters!

The story it selves doesn't seem to be anything special. The character make it more interesting! They just stay there, do cute stuff because of Yuki and then "graduate" and leaves from the school. The whole anime is interesting because they show little by little what is really going on and then they of course shows what happen to the character before this. But then there is that ending! Which make me kinda disappointed (once again). I really waited something horrible to happen to the end, like they all die or something, but nope... they all some hove survive and just leave. And after that the one random character found the letter! But now I know that the story continues after that (because there is manga of this, which is still publishing). But still.... I wanted something terrible to happen in the end! 

That's all! Have a nice day!


Himouto! Umaru-chan


Umaru is a renowned beautiful 16-year-old girl in town, living with her elder brother Taihei. She acts a perfect sister with a kind heart, intelligence and popularity, who everybody admires. So who would believe how true Umaru is at home? Sleeping, gaming, watching TV, eating junk food, drinking cola… that's almost all she does at home, leaving all the housework to her brother.

Her camouflage is so perfect that when one of her classmates visits her home by surprise and witnesses “true Umaru," she pretends as if she is Umaru's younger sister. Taihei is always swayed by Umaru's gap between ostensible face and spoiled life, but he cannot hate his comical and somehow lovable cute little sister!



One of the good ones from this years summer animes! 

Himouto is really light, funny and probably many who watch this can see themselves somehow in Umaru. Himouto brings a fun style of comedy to the viewers, but after some episodes it's kind a recycles those same or same kind of jokes over and over again. I didn't mind that at all because it was still really entertaining!

I kind a like that simple art style, it fit very well for this kind of comedy anime. I'm not usually big fan of chibis, but this anime have only Umaru who turn chibi and she is kind a cute and of course it shows that way the difference how Umaru changes when she come to home from school. 
Characters are of course the main thing in this anime and specially Umaru and what she does. Even though it might seem that she don't do much, there are actually lot of small fun things what happen between Umaru and other characters and that makes this really fun to watch.

Overall I really liked this anime! Even though it was fun to watch I don't wait to see more because this kind of comedy anime just fits to be this short.

That's all for now!
(I was kind a lazy to write this time, but I do my best next time!)
