Hunter X Hunter episode 11: Leorio next bet is whether or not his opponent is a woman. Obviously Leorio bet that the opponent is a man just so he can check for himself. Of course he lose that bet. With only 10 hours left, he then bet on rock-paper-scissor which of course he lose again making the game tied with 2-2. Next up is Killua and his opponent is the most dangerous criminal but meh Killua finished him off in less than 5 seconds. That is one sick skill he has, ripping the heart of his opponent like that. So they won that stage but has to spend 50 hours penalty in a small room.

you don't say...

Episode 7 of Phi Brain: Kami no Puzzle ought to be a good episode since it's about Nonoha and strangely I like her. Ms. Madoka, a kindergarten teacher, gave Kaito a letter. Thinking that it might be a love letter, Nonoha taking out her frustration on the sports that she joined. Little that she knows that Ms. Madoka is a giver and she used the kids as part of the puzzle. Muller, the new POG Head of Japan, set up a sage puzzle that endangered their lives but Kaito, Gammon and Nonoha have no problem solving them and at the same time made Madoka realized her wrong doing. At the end of the episode, Nonoha got the title The Nightingale.

surprise buttfuck is hardly surprising XD

It has been a while. Episode 8 of Hanasaku Iroha - Kissuiso suddenly has a lot of customers but Ohana's grandmother fell sick and rushed to the hospital. Ohana wanted to stay and look after her but she was refused because they were short on staff. On the way back to the inn, Ko called Ohana and I found myself smiling like an idiot. He was on the train on the way to see her too! Kyaaa~ Anyhoo, since there were suddenly so many customer, they thought that one of them got to be a mystery guest to evaluate the inn. They wanted to prioritize them over the other customers but Ohana was against it. She pretty much ran the inn that day. At the end of the episode, she was getting Tohru from a wedding while Ko arrived at the station.

Episode 4 of Ao no Exorcist wasn't as great. Well, introduction episode is mostly like that.

C: The Money of Soul and Possibility Control episode 3 - I have forgotten how boring and complicated all the finanical shit are. Satou, the lady with lollipop, is from an organization that tries to uncover the secret and the impact of Financial District in real world. She has been following Mikuno for that purpose but it is a tough job. On the other hand, Yoga finds out that his father was involved with the Financial District. He went bankrupt and hung himself.

For his next opponent, Yoga has to fight his teacher who is expected his third baby. This happens in episode 4 of C: The Money of Soul and Possibility Control. Yoga would have lost if Mikuno did not buy the asset stock he's selling. Remember that for Midas money, you have to put your future as collateral. I always thought the loser will commit suicide but the teacher who lost showed Yoga can "lost" truly means. He lost all his three child. They disappeared and his wife has no recollection of having children either. That is just too cruel. He also tells Yoga about the Starling Guild, an organization created by Mikuno. He's trying to minimize the effect of losing in the real world. I still can't make up my mind about Mikuno. I think he's a bad guy but all his actions are contradicting my opinion. Ah, well he finally managed to convince Yoga to join him.

Episode 3 of Deadman Wonderland - Wretched Egg, the one who did the masacre is on the loose and immediately goes into a killing spree with the inmates. Of course Ganta will react to it. He foolishly seek the Wretched Egg without knowing that his own life is in danger. He's wanted by the Chief Warden. I find it stupid that they are willing to kill other inmates just so they can capture Ganta. Can't they see how fucking useless he is? But he's one lucky motherfucker to have Shiro by his side though as she helps him (and Yoh) escape and straight to G-block. Well, he gets what he's looking for. The Wretched Egg comes and greets them himself.

everyone, meets the Wretched Egg. He's my new husband ♥

To be honest, I don't feel like watching Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko anymore but against my better judgment here I am watching episode 3. I try not to let Erio pissed me off too much. Thankfully Ryuuko makes an appearance and her moeness cure my blacken heart for this show. She changed the tone of the show for me. When she's not around, it turns shit whats with the aunt trying to seduce the nephew and the delusional cousin finally coming back to earth. Urgh

How cute =3

Fireball Charming episode 5 - Drossel is still planning on a dress to wear for the ball. This time around, it's an underwater spacesuit or so it seems to be. Then Drossel gets to learn about table manner. What a farm, she means, farce! Another episode gone by so far LOL

I actually want to look forward to Hanasaku Iroha but there is just something about this show that makes me shy away out of fear. I don't know what it is either. But lets just watch episode 5 and get it over with. Ohana blabs around telling others about the love triangle between Minko, Tohru and Yuino. Now everyone was making conclusion that Tohru is leaving Kissuiso when he is just taking a day off so he can go on a date. No wonder Minko is so taken by Tohru. He's the one who allows her to work at the inn. I still have a bad feeling that Tohru will end up liking Ohana as well.

LOL oh well I feel like watching episode 6 of Hanasaku Iroha as well. It's pay day and the inn got a visit from Kawajiri Takako. She's there to revitalize Kissuiso, as she puts it. She wants the waitress to wear some rather appealing uniform that is totally not Kissuiso. Ohana is a willing participant though. Well, it's not like they have a choice. The inn is struggling and they need to do something to improve their sales. Hmm, i guess they really are angling for Tohru/Ohana/Minko. That pissed me off. It's degrading for Tohru as a character.

I might as well. Episode 7 of Hanasaku Iroha: Tomoe is being pressured by her mom to attend a marriage meeting while the inn is busy attending a bunch of whacky customers who play survival game for fun. It's a perfect opportunity for Tomoe to act up and get fired because she's planning on quitting anyway. Unfortunately her plan backfired and the customers love her and she ends up realizing that she loves what she's doing anyway. Argh, what is with this show. It lacks consistency. It's episode 3 all over again.

I understand how you feel Tomoe

The World God Only Knows II episode 5: There are 60,000 loose souls left. LOL it seems like Keima will never find his freedom. But he can look forward to 60,000 kisses, right? Heh. Keima makes me laugh. He pretends not to care what real girls say yet he gets depressed nonetheless. That's cute. This time around he has to save his classmate Chihiro who always goes around calling him dweeb. Keima refused to help her at first but his feeling to conquer drives him forward only for him to be shot down right after making him completely gives up on the real world. Somehow this episode is about him getting help.

Snoopy reference FTW!

And he finds it from Ayumi in episode 6 of The World God Only Knows II. He's the first girl he ever helped with the loose soul. Booyah! I love the fact that these girls are coming back. It makes this show so much interesting. Anyway, Keima does ends up helping Chihiro but as expected, since they have grown closer together, Chihiro kinda has fallen for Keima too. Heh, who wouldn't.

Episode 6 of SKET Dance: Sasuke storms in and informs them that SKET Dance will be disbanded starting from today. As if they will comply to that. I can't help but see Keima in Sasuke though he's not as awesome. I'm taken in by Hiro Shimono thanks to Keima. Anyway, they end up competing who would have the best play and if SKET Dance win, they won't be disbanded. Heh, it's not hard to figure out who wins, ne?

Jintan is some sort of a necrophilia, isn't he? Ano Hana episode 6.

Tuesday, May 24

Ao no exorcist episode 5, another introduction episode.

The World God Only Knows II episode 7: Today is the big day for Chihiro to confess to Yuta. As expected, she doesn't want to, not after knowing that she might not be able to talk to Keima after that. Heh, girls are fickle being. So since he thought he failed, Keima is more determined to conquer her. I love the whole process of convincing her and take whatever opportunity he has to place a kiss. Go Keima!

Keima is desirable like that ♥

Yokozawa kinda pull a stop on Takano's attack on Onodera in episode 4 of Sekaiichi Hatsukoi. As expected, Onodera couldn't help but thinks what Yokozawa is doing at Takano's place at 2am in the morning. I have to give it to him though for having such strong self restrained. In this episode, Onodera proves that he is a worthy editor thanks to Takano who has full confidence that he gets it done. Then Yokozawa comes and pretty much tells him off, saying that it is all his fault that Takano's all screwed up. Onodera has no fucking clue what that is all about though. Guess I just have to see the next episode to find out.

The most intense moment in the episode for me

Akutabe hires a sleazy kid who made a contract with Gusion (he eats people fond memories) in episode 7 of Yondemasu yo, Azazel-san. Akutabe asked Sakuma to look after him but she refused so he opted for Undine the fish again. When she send that boy to school, she falls in love with the homeroom teacher and tricks him on signing the marriage paper.

It's good to see that they are focusing on Sinpachi for a change in episode 147 of Gintama. It looks like everyone is obsessed with getting stronger. Everyone except Gin that is who always comes up with various of excuses not to train. So Sinpachi and Kagura get helps from other adults: Sinpachi's sister, Hasegawa and lastly Katsura. Neither one of them is any help though. They keep reverting back to the gym instructors and bear. LOL

Hijikata and Okita Sugou are captured and chained in an abandoned building in episode 148 of Gintama. This totally reminds me of Doubt or Saw. Jigzaw threatens to blow up the Shinsengumi headquarters into smithereens in 3 days. Only Hijikata and Okita know about it so it is up to them to save that place. Just how will remain to be seen. Jigzaw totally have them by their noses. You know it will be hilarious when you put Hijikata and Okita together in one room, just the two of them. I think there's only one person Hijikata is afraid of and that's Okita. I can't say that his fear is unfounded though.

Episode 6 of Ao no Exorcist is a filler but it's still fun nonetheless.

That's one great OP song. Also I saw Shiro's nipple. Just saying. Episode 2 of Deadman Wonderland: Ganta entered the Dog Race. The seemingly nice inmate Takami Yoh isn't really very nice but I guess you have to be cunning to survive in that kind of hell hole. He told Tamaki (the warden) about Ganta entering the race so Tamaki made the hurdle as dangerous as possible. In this race, either you win or you are dead. It was cruel shit. Ganta is lucky because Shiro is looking out for him otherwise he's long dead.

Why the fuck do all gangsters/side characters sound so fucking annoying. Some were too high pitch while some is all bass. Who can take them seriously? Anyway, SKET Dance episode 3: some girl name Momoka stole Onihime's identity and caused trouble around town. She even kidnapped Onihime only to find out that she's the real one. Despite some serious moments, this is still a comedy which has successfully made me laugh. It's well balanced indeed.

the best of both worlds

Tiger & Bunny episode 4: For once we are focusing on other Hero. This time it's Blue Rose. It's interesting when she said being a Hero isn't her main goal. This goes back to what I have been saying since episode 1. These so-called heroes are either doing it for the money and/or for the glamor or worse, being forced to do so. That's what happened with Blue Rose/Karina until Tiger made her realized that being a hero is not as bad as she thinks. Typical.

Episode 2 of Ao no Exorcist is still as awesome as the first episode, if not better. Though it is stereotypical type of stuff that we have seen countless time, it still managed to grab our interest and even WOW us with the whole presentation. This is how shounen anime should be.

Episode 3 of Yondemasu yo, Azazel-san: A human is a slave for lizard-like looking demon, Grimoire, who has the power over words. Everyone else fell under his power except for Akutabe-san. To counter his power, Akutabe summoned Citro, a fish mermaid who desired love and has the power to transform and giving man a fucking blowjob. She can't control herself when she gets jealous. I LOL at the cruelty of Akutabe. God, i love him.

lol wut?

On to the next anime, episode 3 of Sekaiichi Hatsukoi: Ritsu met Yokozawa from the Sales Department and dislike him almost immediately. Why? Because Yokozawa and Takano are obviously fuck buddies. Anyway he's adamant not to fall in love with Takano again but hey, this is yaoi. He'll give up his ass sooner rather than later. It was so apparent that he got jealous and such. He tried to avoid him as well unfortunately Takano is his boss so there's no way of doing so especially when there's a storyboard he needs to approve. As I have expected, Takano jumped him only to be interrupted by Yokozawa who has the key to his apartment. Ah dorama...

It means that HE WILL MAKE YOU SAY IT with his dick up your ass ^__^

Hanasaku Iroha episode 4: Ohana starts schooling again at the same school where Nako and Minko are. Ohana is immediately famous just because she transferred from Tokyo. Looks like Minko is quite famous with the boys herself. Ohana makes a new friend with a bubbly girl named Yuina who is the successor for Fukuya hot spring. Basically they are rivals. There are other sides of Ohana that I see today so she wasn't as annoying as she was in the last episode. For example, her surprised with new things that the local found as normal like seeing Heron for the first time. This episode also confirms that Minko likes Tohru while Ohana is denying her feelings for Ko. Interesting. So I guess the OTP for now is OhanaxKo and MinkoxTohru. But wait, towards the end of the episode, Tohru picked Yuina up and looks like they are dating. WHAT THE FUCK? That was totally unexpected. Great XD

It has been a while since I read any manga. Not even yaoi. But for some reason I feel like doing it tonight and what other way to start it off if not by reading some yaoi manga. I picked Curiosity at random. It featured two shouta but hot damn the yaoi was good.

that's a cute dick >=3

Haqua is introduced in episode 3 of The World God Only Knows II.

Episode 3 of Fireball Charming: Drossel is planning on going to a ball but Gedächtnis won't allow her to go out since the relationship between robots and mankind is still complicated. He tried to stop her going on an electrical car with made up excuses about special car for mature ladies with thought process comparable to a sea slug. Drossel ignored him and got on one which only tour around the mansion where she lives in less than 5 seconds. I guess this episode introducing one of Drossel accessories as a figure, which is his father red cloak.

awww *pouts*

They introduced two more characters in Sengoku Otome: Momoiru Paradox episode 4, Shingen and Kenshin. Both of them have the armors that Nobunaga seeks. Mitsuhide/Akerin suggested some underhand tactics to get the armors which enraged Nobunaga. Ieyasu quickly took the opportunity to poison her mind since she has her own agenda up her dirty sleeves. Mitsuhide decided to follow through with her plan but since Hideyoshi overheard her, she locked her up. But of course Nobunaga came, save her and stopped Mitsuhide. This only made Mitsuhide hates Hideyoshi even more. Nobunaga interfered with Shingen and Kenshin battle. Of course she won it and almost killed them both but meh she won't do it. In the end she got the armors. Mission accomplished.

Episode 4 of X-Men is much better structured than the last episode. It still meh though.

My first impression on SKET Dance and [C].

Hanasaku Iroha episode 3: Ohana was about to get rape by the novelist. I approved because she obviously volunteered to atone her mistake in the last episode. Such a nice girl. She even helped him with her sex-writing career (Ohana having a threesome with Nako and Minko in a bath tub). Then she tell the others about it *facepalm* which pushed him to the point of being suicidal. He jumped off a cliff but was save by Nako. The end. By the way, what's with the fanservice in this show? It decrease the value and I'm definitely getting bored with the crap. So what if the animation was flawless when it's boring as fucking a dead guy? Fuck, Ohana is annoying *is mad*

*shakes head disapprovingly*

Episode 2 of Yondemasu yo, Azazel-san! Tamura's lecturer asked her agency to look for his dog. Akutabe used the service of Beelzebub for this mission. His power is "forcibly induce excretion in living creature" as he puts it. He was good though and they caught the missing dog in no time at all but he also ate shits. But yeah as the show progresses, I was lolling off my chair with laughter because it took turn to the unexpected! God I love this show =3

the timing of this scene was impeccable

Ah crap Ritsu has started dreaming about his boss. That is always a bad sign that the anime is taking turn for the worse. Well we got to see how Takano is charismatic when it comes to his work in episode 2 of Sekaiichi Hatsukoi though. It just the process of wowing Ritsu which also included him forcing himself on Ritsu, trying to make him remember of the past. And fuckif that is not cliche enough, how about the fact that they are fucking neighbors?

Episode 3 of X-Men disappoint me. The pacing was poor and the plot was too cliche for my liking.

Episode 2 of The World God Only Knows II on the other hand was good. I was entertained.

Oh wow, I am watching episode 3 of Tiger & Bunny. Who would have thought? I sure did not plan this but I might as well watch this since I got the time to spare. This episode is about Kotetsu and Barnaby working on for better understanding and team work. Sounds terribly boring and sometimes it were but the show has it moments too. TV Hero was also doing a documentary on Barnaby so we got to learn a few things about him like his parent were murdered. The show won't be completed without a little action so they added in a bomb threat where Tiger & Bunny finally managed to work successfully as a team. They still bicker though but that's the best thing about this partnership. Btw, what's with Karina Lyle?

Sengoku Otome - Momoiru Paradox episode 3: Nobunaga paid a visit to Imagawa Yoshimoto to obtain the left leg of the crimson armor but it won't be so easy. The episode is about how Nobunaga used 'recreation' to get the armor. It was stupid >>

Episode 2 of Sket Dance: random samurai guy showed up at the club asking for help to win the kendou tournament. They solved the problem with Friske. Then onto the second mission: taking care of Yabasu and getting rid of a bomb. They have to do both at the same time because the monkey ran away with the fucking bomb. There were some funny moments but only like for 2-3 minutes of the whole show.

Bleach chapter 445 was somewhat interesting.

Glo convinced me to check out Nichijou so I started with the OVA Nichijou episode 0. Not as I expected it to be.

Friday, April 22

As expected from A-1 Pictures, Ao no Exorcist is fucking awesome. I came in my pantsu.

Episode 2 of Ano Hana. I am glad to say here that the quality remains and the story/drama just gets better. Awesome shit.

Yoga met his Asset, Masu in episode 2 of [C] The Money of Soul and Possibility Control and immediately forced into a Deal. As expected Yoga was totally useless and got beaten by his own bitchy Asset but through this Deal at least I grasp the idea of what it is and how it works. Eventually Yoga won which was a big deal. The last person who won on their first Deal was Mikuni so naturally he paid Yoga a lot of attention. He even went out of his way to pay Yoga a visit. Yoga still has stick up his ass when it comes to Midas. He doesn't want to has anything to do with it. That's impossible. Masakaki remains as best character of the show.

Saturday, April 23

Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko episode 2: Makoto treated Erio like she's totally retarded as she explained about some alien shit. She totally deserved that kind of treatment. She also brought him to the ocean and when she went adrift, I couldn't help but laughed at what Makoto has to say. Apparently Erio disappeared for half a year and came back with no memory of what happened. Interesting... In this episode Makoto also met Mifune Ryuuko, a totally moe and adorable girl from his school. I can't help but like Mifune because he made Makoto do all kind of stuff that even he questioning himself doing it. Her attitude is infectious. He also met the Giant Oarfish, Maekawa. Note here that some of Makoto's monologue are really witty and funny. Kudos to the writer.

Too tired from the journey home so I only managed to watch the first episode of Hanasaku Iroha. This show is solid.

Tuesday, April 12

I am not going to miss the second season of The World God Only Knows II. It makes me remember how enjoyable this show can be.

Tiger and Bunny episode 2: It's the first time Tiger and Bunny working together. There are bound to be some argument especially when Tiger found out that he's suppose to be Barnaby's sidekick. Barnaby is still being an ass and that attitude is the reason why he is so endearing. As for Koutetsu, he's too simple minded to be a hero. He crushed civilian's car on purpose and doesn't feel remorse about it. He's just too careless. In this episode, Koutetsu kinda has to choose whether to see her daughter ice-skating or be a hero. He should just tell her daughter that he's Tiger so she would understand and does not hold grudges towards him. Anyway, I'm beginning to feel annoyed with the cliche-ness of this show.

Episode 2 of Fireball Charming: It's about manners and Gedächtnis teached Drossel to be elegant yet alert by putting books on top of her head and balance it while they play "games". It was fun as always.

charming as well

Just finished watching episode 2 of X-Men. Cyclops is such an emo. Orz.

Proceed with episode 2 of Hanasaku Iroha: Jeebus the OP is really annoying. Anyway, Nako will guide Ohana for her waitress duty. Because Nako is so timid, Ohana felt like she's useless so she kept repeating what her mother told her: don't rely on anyone else, only believe in yourself". Obviously she created more trouble; cleaning up room that she wasn't supposed to clean and cooking meals when Minko was being reprimanded because of it. She is tactless. Anyway, is it wrong of me to think that she might ended up having feelings for Tohru and thus have to compete with Minko again? Crap, Ohana is slowly getting on my nerves what's with her bossy and inconsiderate attitude. I'm that too but I don't force myself on people and I don't give a fuck about how they feel. Ohana is taking everything into consideration which is why she's so messed up. Having said that, the end of the episode makes me want to keep tuning in. chronolynx mentioned that this is "spirited away" without the magical stuff. Unfortunately I can see the similarity.

Wednesday, April 13

Asterotte's Toy definitely live up to my expectation and I don't mean it in the good way >>

Thursday, April 14

Better development in Bleach latest chapter but still we all know how Kubo is capable of trolling.

Sengoku Otome - Momoiru Paradox episode 2: Hideyoshi is still pretty much confused with her whereabouts but keep pushing forward. They went to the burned village from the previous episode and helped out the villagers. I think she was trying too much to be funny that it turns out not funny at all. I'm disappointed. Things were looking up when Shiro, the talking dog returned to harass Hideyoshi. By the way, fact from this episode is, they are in the land of no men.

I might as well watch the final episode of Level E: Ki figured out that the princess and his brother were actually impostor. By marrying Ki to a fake princess, they can asked Ki to liberate Magura from Dogura. Either that or never allowed Ki to leave Earth. Ki obviously thinks he has everything figured out and married the fake princess who turns out to be the real princess. LOL score for everyone else! Turns out the cat was the princess idea all along. Psycho indeed.

this is what I called a power couple

Do not watch Dog Days because it is fucking SHIT!

First impression for one of the most funniest anime of the season: Yondemasu yo, Azazel-san!

First Impression: Hanasaku Iroha

I have heard a lot of good thing about Hanasaku Iroha through blog-walking and twitter spoilers. I wrote in my preview that this could turn out as a shoujo. Based on my past experience with shoujo, I can either end up loving this or disliking it.


Things are looking good though because I don’t have that instant feeling of the usual hate I felt for female protagonist in a shoujo. Ohana is okay in my book and her best friend, Ko, who I assumed is her love interest in this show, is alright too. LOL look at me making assumption again. For all I know this can turn out to be a horror and Ohana is the psycho killer.

Yeah, as I wrote that, I was only 2 minutes in and I have already paused the episode twice. Once to write some of the stuff above, the second time to check out the poster and from what I can tell, there is no male featured in it, only a bunch of girls. So... a harem? lol me.

But I wasn't completely wrong though. Ko does have feelings for Ohana and confessed to her. But it kinda complicated you see because Ko is extremely shy when it comes to that and the fact that Ohana was taken by surprise. It was real. Besides, it will be difficult for these two since Ohana is moving in with her Grandma at Yunosagi because her mom is eloping with her boyfriend.


Ohana is someone who wants drama in her life so this is actually a wish comes true for her. She will live her life at the inn where she met her grandmother who treats her as an employee and made her work on her first day there. There's a reason why she's so cold towards Ohana, its because she has disowned her mom. Ohana also met her uncle for the first time and three other girls with interesting personality to match hers.

There is Minko who acts like a gangster but looks like an angel, Tomoe who is the most talkative of them all and Nako the shy and quiet one. Everyone at the inn (except for Tomoe) doesn't seem to like Ohana much. Or maybe everyone was just so because of her grandma's attitude. That woman is scary O_o

There are certainly other interesting characters that is yet to be introduced properly like the chefs and the pervert with megane. But honestly I am more interested with Minko's story and what her deal is. Her character is definitely attention grabbing.

This show is solid. The feelings that it was trying to convey to the audience was real. At the end of the episode, where Ohana shed tears while moping the floor... I kinda get goosebumps. This is definitely one of the show to watch out for this season. I am more than happy that at least this season, the shows weren't as disappointing like last winter.
