K-ON!! episode 4: They are going on a road trip to Kyoto, the whole class. So obviously Azunyan is not around. The episode is chaotic as usual thanks to Ritsu and Yui.

I must admit that I find this scene cute @_@

In Emerging chapter 20, Akari's boyfriend is a complete psycho. The reason he kissed Akari was because he wanted to get the virus so that Akari won't die alone. It was romantic, yes, but stupid nonetheless. He was infected (when he kissed her at school) but his antibody fought with the virus and he's healthy as a cow. Obviously he'll turn into a lab rat after this. They'll need his blood to create a serum. In order to do so they need to use the BLU research lab.

The key in Judge is actually for a cabinet that has the cassette player. The horse find something else plastered in the cabinet but he kept it to himself. When the cassette played, it instructed them to take off their mask and show their faces. Only the lion obeyed at first and until everyone is convinced they won't die by taking the mask off. Then the cassette recited the 7 deadly sins. To atone their sins, they have to pick one as a sacrifice and in the end only 4 shall remain. The judges (not the victims) are all seated while enjoying the show. Pretty crazy if you asked me.


Zettai Karen Children chapter 214 and 215: The PANDRA kids were trapped with Tim and Bullet and they can't used their power because it has been blocked. Basically it was a trap to capture the Children. Thanks to Kugutsu, their plan came to ruin and with the help of the Children the kids were freed. At the end of the chapter, Minamoto said that he will "always" be their guardian and Kaoru is misinterpreting it. Always?

Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou episode 4: Akuto once again did a number on Hittori so the teacher asked him to go to the Mental Self-Discipline Chamber to meditate. He was supposed to go in alone but the Liladan and Keena followed him inside. Phailed. As usual Etou is devising an evil plan for Akuto but cancelled it when she found the map. btw, they introduced Eiko, another psychotic bitch who wants to get into Akuto’s pants. Because of her, Akuto has to check the map himself. Hiroshi, Liladan and Eiko for no reason at all tag along. Jeebus so illogical.

The Skrugg is now determined to destroy Heroman in episode 5. Meh, it was a predictable episode. Like I previously said, Will will be a liability and the Skrugg will use him however they see fit. Joey and Psy on the hand will not stand around doing nothing so they fight the Skrugg according to Psy’s plan: one Skrugg at a time. It seems to work out too if the fucking useless Lina has used her head and didn’t show up in the middle of the battle field. Besides the Skruggs are intelligent life forms after all. Just look at their fucking technology. Obviously they’d figure something out to counter the attack plan of a crippled boy. The smaller they are the higher their rank is apparently. Oh wait the fucking minute. They are actually Will and the shortie. The Skrugg turned them to become one of them. Fucking LOL


Ichigo has no hope at all in Bleach episode 270. Awesome XD

Bleach chapter 403 was okay I guess. I'm just not feeling it for some reason. Must be the morphin ^_^

So it was a flashback week of how that dude who I will not bother to remember his name was once tried to kill Bee in Naruto chapter 494. Basically it makes Naruto thinking and when he starts thinking, something is bound to happen because Naruto is the kind of hero that doesn't think and just act according to his instinct. I think it was a gay chapter >_>

Maka is being lectured by the girl she found in Soul Eater chapter 74. I don't like where this is going. I agree with that little girl that Soul has helped Maka a lot but that what partner is for. Maka should have realized this sooner and move on. If Soul help her, I will facepalm. *facepalm*
Apparently Soul was compared to Wes too and using Maka to get stronger/better/whatever. I'm glad that the other guys have reached the Wrath chapter where they met Excalibur. Everyone was obviously pissed off but he provided good laugh indeed. Before everyone could kill him, they moved on to chapter 5: Pride. Guess who tag along? So yeah but Excalibur did offer them help. Liz took it and for a second I thought wow, she really grabbed Excalibur and tore another dimension in the sky. LOL but what she really did was throw him away. LMAO

I fucking lol'd

On the other hand, Eibon has sent Giriko to where Maka and Soul is (chapter 6: Sloth) where Maka decided to leave Soul. How damn predictable. But I am stoked! I have always like Giriko. And Eibon too. Can;t wait for Giriko to kick Maka's ass ^__^

I have a yaoi OVA: Kaochou no Koi for breakfast. It doesn't taste very good T__T

Watching two episodes of K-ON!! in one week. I must be really bored. If in the last episode they neglected Azu-nyan, they are making up for in in episode 5, together with Ui and on more girl (Jun) who is definitely a better character than all of them combined (excluding Ritsu. duh). ZOMG K-ON!! is fucking shit!

Working!! episode 4: We got to meet Takanashi's sisters! Kozue who happens to be pretty hot and looks like Sawako sensei from K-ON!, Izumi who's gothic-like, Kazue, the lawyer and Nazuna the elementary schooler. But this episode is not about them entirely, it's pretty much is about Souta and Souma. Hehehe, Souma is definitely an interesting character. He might looks harmless and friendly but he's a double edge sword. He knows everyone's secret and using the information to make them do his work. Ngehehehe. I laughed so fucking hard when he got knocked with the frying pan or became the punching bag for Inami who obviously likes Takanashi. And I really do feel sorry for Satou. To have lost your love because of another woman is just sad. Oh and this episode explains why Takanashi is obsessed with small things. I like the small details throughout the episodes as well like Tanakashi folding up his shirt sleeves when he wants to wash the dishes.

Definitely one of the highlight moments in Working!!

Wow, two updates on yaoi OVA in a week. This is great. Seitokaicho no Chuukoku is another yaoi that used Tomokazu Sugita's voice so yeah, I'm a fan by default. In episode 2, Chiga is being over protective over Kokusai after he found out that the president was being molested. And then somehow they get it on and we ended not finding out who the molester is. LOL I don't care anyway. This one is funny thanks to Sugita ^^

I'm procrastinating, just so you know XD

Next up is Working!! episode 5: Inami trying to cure her androphobic. Satou gets annoyed whenever Yachiyo gets close to Kyoko (looking so damn hot while at it). Yachiyo now thinks Satou likes Taneshima. They all kinda switched roles when Takanashi took a day off and it's been fun.

In episode 6, it's the March 14 where Japanese returns the chocolate they got for Valentines. This episode also shows the kind of relationship Takanashi Souta has with his sisters. MAGIC HAND! lmao sorry that was random but I can't help it XD So in the middle of the episode, Takanashi met Inami and they went shopping together (believe it or not, without injuries on Souta's part). I really like the budding romance between these two.

LMAO this is TOTALLY my line!

Heroman: Episode 4

I dunno why am I always feel the need to do an episodic review on series that I don't enjoy but yeah here I am having Heroman for breakfast on a Sunday morning.

I dunno why America hasn't think of this yet. They should just get a few trucks containing aerosol and blast it to the roaches. No matter how you look at it, they are just a giant cockroaches.

As Joey, his grandma and Psy went to the shelter, Will managed to get inside the stronghold of the Skrugg. Failed. I mean, weren't the Skrugg supposed to be technology enhance? Surely they have a surveillance camera or shit like that inside that shit. Or at least a more alert troop. Will and the fat midget weren't exactly quiet, were they? *shakes my head*

The face of a moron

Will plan is to get a hold of their weapon and blast them with it. Some kinda like "letting them taste their own shitty medicine". I got a feeling that the Skrugg will actually used him to their own advantage though.

Meanwhile Professor Denton is already back at his van, being the asshole that he is, all dramatic and shit. I want to smack the back of his head with a wooden bat. As they busy talking, the Skrugg released a giant sphere to erase the town to the ground. Wow... I thought they are going to nuke the city and that's all they did? Release a big hard sphere and let it bowl everything on its way? -__-

LOL but of course it's not only a sphere. It some kind of an AI shit. Oh man, this is just getting so fucking ridiculous.


Heroman has all sorts of difficulties to stop the unstoppable sphere. He broke both of his hands trying to stop it. The emo Joey of course being overly dramatic about it so as expected, we got to see another new feature for Heroman: Augmento! Yeah, don't ask me how Joey came up with all these cliche shit. So what did Augmento do? It makes Heroman larger with that super sayan hairstyle from the last episode >_>

Heroman still couldn't stopped the sphere but at least he managed to delay the shit after everyone has evacuate. Can robot feel tired though? I don't think it can.

And where are the army?

*sigh*

Heroman: Episode 3

After three episodes, I'm beginning to dig the OP of Heroman.



Like I said in episode 2, why aren't the US military here yet? Aren't they always on top of things when it comes to this kind of attacks? Or did they sent all their military units to the Middle East or meddle in some other country's business? Hmm yep, I think that's why.

And I think its rather ironic that they are getting invade and can't do nothing about it. It is time they are tasting their own medicine, and see how they like the bitter taste of it.

Anyway, the giant roaches has sent a bigger ship to invade the soil of the USA and make a home out of their power plant. This time they aren't as friendly as they were in the last episode. Joey and Psy, who btw, got a pretty cool bike that kinda works like a skateboard somehow, went to his house to look after his grandma, who btw, didn't realize there was a war going on. I dunno why Psy wanted to follow Joey though. He was totally useless.

Yet Psy still looks kinda cool though

Oh! They finally get the government involved! About time...

*facepalm*

oh wait. I forgot. They won't be of any use anyway. Bullets won't have any effect on these giant roaches. The only one who can save them are Heroman and Joey, of course. Fucking cliche. And yep, they are still doing the transformation sequence. I counted. It took 30 seconds! The Skrugg could have toasted them! Tsk, annoyed the fucking hell out of me.

But wait, this time Heroman got an upgrade! Reminds me of Super Sayan Goku.


And Will, that moronic brother of Lina is planning to get on the flying saucer. Ah, you gotta love stupid people. They just don't learn.

Heroman: Episode 2

Time for another episode of Heroman. In episode 2, Heroman is back to its normal size. I wonder if it needs another strike of lightning for it to come alive and be like 12 feet tall again. That won't be too convenience wouldn't it? Also I like to see how does it goes back to its normal size. Realistically it wouldn't be possible unless you are from the same planet as the Transformers.

Ah I didn't need to wait long for an answer though. All Joey needs to do is click on the device and voila! He'll get the arm attachment where he can call forth the real size Heroman with a click of a button and he can just canceled the action with a thought. Damn, now they are telepathic?

But at least they came up with a logic excuse for the damaged house since it did get struck by lightning after all.

It only occurred to me that we didn't see that many cheerleader in Japanese anime. The only reason we have one in Heroman I assumed is because it was setup in America and like typical American mindset, being a cheerleader is rad and you'll be automatically socially adept and what not. I don't like it. It is too fucking cliche. And most often than not, cheerleaders are stuck up bitch. I feel cheated with Heroman attempt to make Lina so decent and nice. It got one thing correct though, that they are horny bitches. That's why she's so hung up on a loser like Joey.

Stop being such a scaredy-cat. Jeebus!

Also, how the fuck did she able to do the cheerleading stuff after the accident? Realistically shouldn't she need some rest, or at least has few cuts and bandages?

The giant cockroaches are already on the move, sending out troops in a pod down to earth. Usually all these giant aliens chose Japan as their new home but I guess Stan Lee managed to convince them to invade US for a change. Good job. The Japanese need their peaceful time to continue producing good anime, unlike this one.

This is what happened to the roaches when you don't clean your room like your ma tell you to!

The Americans are so stupid or so used to see aliens on the movie screen that they did not run in fear when the big bugs landed and destroyed their car. What happened to the enhance military technology of the US? Can't they detect these shits when they entered the air space? So many loopholes!

*facepalm*

I guess they weren't that afraid because the giant bugs were carrying pink colored weapon. Seriously though... PINK? That is so NOT intimidating...


If there is one thing that going to piss me off for the rest of the episodes, it gotta be the transformation sequence. I don't need to see the same shit every time he wants to transform Heroman into the big ass metal case. And when did he came up with the annoying sentence anyway? Jeez...


Also, I have got the feeling that Lina is so going to be the damn damsel in distress and unsurprisingly I was spot on. Urgh I hate this kind of character dammit. Not to mention that his ungrateful brother for no reason has grudge on Joey for saving the earth. WTF

Sorry to say but I was wrong with my first impression. After watching the second episode, I think I'll just give this series 6/10.

I'm more annoyed than entertained.

First impression: Heroman

I don't remember anything about the synopsis of Heroman from the Spring anime list and is actually too tired from the trip for anything else but when Snark said that he gave Heroman the seal of approval, that is all the reason I need to watch this one.

I like it instantly when I saw that the anime is set up in the USA. I am kinda tired with anime that took place in Japan and no where else. Not that it has anything wrong with it but the different is kinda refreshing. But then again, most of mecha's anime are set up outside of Japan, aren't they? Like Gundam 00 for example.

And I found it funny when characters that have western name speak in Japanese. So just like that it's pretty entertaining.

fuck. he looks like a girl. Sounds like one too!

Joey is the seemingly very weak protagonist who has the hippest grandma ever. He's friend with the coolest character of the series so far, Psy. See? That name is so fucking cool right? I'll name one of my son Psy. Just you wait and see... Yeah, fuck. I pretty much told the world about my fetish, didn't I? >_>

Psy

Anyway, Joey likes robot but can't afford one. One day one of the bully's Heybo got smashed by a car. He obviously threw Heybo away and as expected Joey picked and patched Heybo up and named him Heroman.

In the mean time, one of Joey's teacher, Mr. Denton has successfully making contact with extra terrestrial life who happened to be a giant cockroach that will invade the earth in the next episode. During their arrival, there was a storm and Heroman was struck by lightning. One thing led to another and before I know it, Joey has this device on his hand that can control Heroman who have grown like 9 feet in just few seconds.

Stupid Denton calling out for giant bugs

It just so happened that at the same time, Lina, the soon-to-be Joey's girlfriend was involved in an accident. Of course Heroman and Joey will save her and her dad. What bothers me though is that Joey or Heroman has no inclination what-so-ever to save the other people that involved in that accident. Can you really called them Hero, then?

After 24 minutes, I re-read what I wrote about the upcoming Spring anime. I wrote this:

Heroman kinda reminds me of X'amd. Get this though. It's another collaboration. This time of Stan Lee and Bones. I already liked Stan Lee's collaboration with Hirayuki Takei in Ultimo. So this hopefully is something very promising for my taste. Besides, X'amd is cool.

I forgot that Stan Lee has his hand in this. So it explained the USA thingy. And I was right. This one definitely deserved Snark Seal of Approval. Go on ahead. Click the link. He writes better first impression than me. You'll be thoroughly entertained ^_^
