The AnimaTure

I see more and more people typing animes and mangas or manga's lately or it could just be me paying too much attention to it.

I just leave this link here since i already complained about it and there is no need to write a whole page about it again.

I have somewhat given up on correcting people as the ones i did correct keep on using the wrong spelling and i also get this rubbish what they call arguments or reasoning why they could add s or 's to Anime or Manga.

That one thing that is annoying me more than the spelling is that they call themselves 'Otaku'.

Now you might be wondering why and i shall make it clear to you all.

Otaku means NERD.

Got it?

It does not mean fan despite many wanting it to mean fan but they are calling themselves nerd.

Imagine the faces of many Japanese people that are talking to lovers of Anime, Manga, games and still practice other things such as sports or go to work.
Talk with them i dare you all and i dare you twice that once you are getting to the point of saying 'i love Anime', that you say 'i am a Otaku and love Anime'.

They would laugh because they probably think the same i am thinking which is 'HAHA he just called him/herself  a nerd!'.

Please stop using it to mark yourself as a Anime lover.
Here is a better explanation  about "Otaku".

It is just as bad as that one idiot calling Cosplay done by western people racist and that they don't have the characteristics to cosplay 'Japanese' character while most of them are influenced by Western forms and not Japanese. Sort of Ironic.

As that part is over i will go back to what i have been following.





It is getting better by the week!
Natsu has balls of fire and steel and in Episode 166 they show us that it goes further than just fighting because they even keep rules in the story to prevent things from happening.

That one downside is that Sabertooth has way too many weak guildies despite being the strongest guild.
Maybe Natsu is just too strong and makes it look like they are weak...who knows?



I have completed the Shakugan no Shana-franchise and have to say that it was as expected.
Not that interesting as it should be thanks to the love triangle and drama and an 'immortal' enemy that gets defeated and a whole town that gets lifted.

All the emotions and reactions are just so fake that the drama just does not make sense anymore.

Yuuji Screaming like mad for a moment and completely fine after 10 minutes.

Guess being a 'dead' being is great?

Oh yes, they are dead which they explained from episode 1 so i am not really spoiling anything.



I can't say i am eagerly waiting to see the secrets of Punk Hazzard as i have read the Manga a bit.

Everyone seems to posses the power of Haki that sort of takes the amazingness away that a person has it.
They do go on a dramatic and horrible dark path with the Arc that is now being animated which shows that One Piece is not only about fun and fancy epic fights.



The cover looks bad but never judge a book by its cover is what they say.

I can agree with that saying as Grappler Baki is one of my favorite fighting Anime as it stands higher than Hajime No Ippo.

The manliness, the feelings, the background stories are just superb.

Tough it gets somewhat boring but still a worthy series to watch.

Tough the greatest fantasy in here is that a 13 year old has a muscled body of that of a bodybuilder which is impossible if it were to be in real life.
You might say it is possible but i suggest watching Grappler Baki to understand why i am saying this.


The story with Gaara how he became a jinchuuriki is rather touching.
So far that i know is that this is the reason why Naruto and Gaara are like the best friends because they understand each other.

I do dislike that Naruto suddenly has a dozen of new attacks and i totally hate the ninja news thing which i mentioned before i think.
The latest episode is a let down for me due the sudden change of things.

Massive powers that that take away the fun-factor of realism.

Even when you might say that series with magic and monsters can't be realistic i have to tell you that Magi still held the realistic bar very high.

No overpowered actions like that of One Piece, Bleach, Naruto, Dragonball Z or such.

Despite having said that it seems that episode 16 shows us that Alibaba suddenly gets full confidence in his metal vessel and does not only reach the state of where he can summon Amon's sword.
He also reaches a small state behind that which empowers him for about the double of his strength.

This however, does not take away the realism yet.
What takes away the realism is that he gets smacked down with the power of the 'gods' and stands back up while he couldn't move anymore when Judal smacked him into a wall.
