The AnimaTure

As the pre-episode starts we get to see Ibuki and Yoichi walking towards school and then they notice 3 girls.
2 of them are rooting one girl to go for it.

The screen zoomed in on the 3 girls and we see that the girl in the middle is holding an envelope sealed with a heart.

After the opening we get to know the girl who is called Hinagata. She is a first year and she gave Yoichi the envelope.
She then ran off and all the guys were hoping to have like Yoichi.

We know that Yoichi is quite old fashioned with both training, mind, body, skills and knowledge of the present world since he grew up in the mountains.

He thought the envelope was a challenge to a duel and Ibuki gave him the dictionary.

Once Yoichi  learned about what dating was he was wondering what to do, but he was making this groping movement with his hands and Ibuki hit him on the head.

She was walking in the school halls all pondering about his behavior and then decided to go on a date with Yoichi to teach him what dating is.

She proposed it as a practice date, but she is taking it quite seriously.
Ibuki is a bad liar as she stumbles down the stairs with a fake laughter of denial.

As the date starts and Ibuki wants to ask Yoichi  where he wants to go first she noticed Yoichi  not being by her side.
What he was doing?

He was loudly introducing himself to everyone and was openly challenging them all for a duel.
You could guess what Ibuki did. It could be a cause of a headache.

They went to the mall and this time we get to see Yoichi in modern clothing and he got flustered when Ibuki touched his back with her breasts.
Not that she did it on purpose, but because they are rather... yeah you know... large.

Ibuki showed a cute side of herself and Yoichi said so too and she is wondering if she was acting childish.

Ayame too is at that same mall and did not show herself to her sister or Yoichi.

Yoichi and Ibuki went bowling and she showed him what to do.
Yoichi decided to give it a try and he threw, yes he literally THREW the ball and made a hole in the wall.

Ibuki explained what he had to do and they both got flustered about getting too close and he dropped the ball on his feet.

He dropped to the ground and looked up with as result that he was looking under Ibuki's skirt which made him let out a surprising yell.

The owner of the place gave them an earful and i am surprised that he is not charging them for the hole in the wall.

I am more surprised that they keep the hole in the wall instead of making it disappear like in every other Anime.

Yoichi notices that he is being watched.

Not that they know that they are being stalked by all 3 sisters but Ayame leaves the scene quickly enough.

Suddenly a shadow with yellow eyes appears and not soon after he is talking to someone on the phone and we see some animal-like features despite him being all shadowed.
At the second scene however, you can see it is a mask that he is wearing.

The scene changed to Washizu (Wa-san) and they noticed Ayame on the streets and he started getting his strange daydream about Ibuki being his lover and that Ayame is going to be his future sister-in-law.

Back to Ibuki and Yoichi who are enjoying desserts, food and more food.
After that they are walking in the park and Ibuki noticed all these couples and wanted to hold his hand while walking.

At that moment Yoichi turned to ask something and she got flustered and stepped back and she started to fall down.

Yoichi tried to catch her but fell in the pond too and he was apologizing for not being able to save her and was expecting punishment.

Yoichi gave Ibuki a present that she was acting all cute for before and she acted cute again!

Yoichi thanks Ibuki for the practice date and somehow we know something snapped inside Ibuki's head.

She went to get some drinks real quick and suddenly Hinagata appears.

Yoichi gave a reply for the letter he got from her and declined it because he is not familiar with her.
However this time it seems that Hinagata is a martial artist and was out to get Yoichi and is using her girly charms to trap Yoichi.

While Yoichi is fighting we get to see Ibuki being pestered by two guys and which kind we all hate, playboys that try to get her to go with them since they called Yoichi a boring guy.

One of the guys slapped the present from Yoichi out of her bag calling it childish and Ibuki grabbed him by the arm.

The scene goes back to Yoichi and he took the weapon from the girl and broke it and used part of it as a sword and used his wind style, ripping the clothes of Hinagata.

After Hinagata ran off and Yoichi called Chihaya and Kagome after he noticed them, they heard Ibuki scream and ran towards her.

Upon arriving they saw Ibuki and... the two playboys beaten up.

We get to see the shadow with yellow eyes again and learn that Hinagata was send by him. Not soon after we see the sister of the shady man with yellow eyes and guess what? She also is shadowed with yellow eyes.

Yoichi talked about the date request that he declined it.
He was also acting melodramatic about how there could be no person to love him because the warrior he is.

Ibuki got mad and did say there was somebody that loved him and walked away.

She gave herself away by saying this, but i doubt Yoichi would get it.

I bet there will be another season!

I did hope that this one would be the last one so i know who would end up as Kodaka's girlfriend.

On the other side this could mean that if there is going to be another season, that we get to see more of Rika!

She and Kobato are my favorites.


I just love the ending!
As it makes me want to see more!

What i did dislike is the over dramatic eye movement and body expressions.
You can act dramatic, but moving up down left right and all over again, kneeling and dropping to the ground is just way too much in simply two or three episodes.

I'm starting to like this one.
The over obvious harem thing is what does break down the story.

There are multiple references to other series like the diary that has the two markings from Death Note.
Scenes from JoJo No Kimyou Na Bouken that are being reenacted and there are probably more that i don't know or did not notice.

So far the story goes it is quite strange that one who hates love and all that, still gets shy about it despite openly declaring to be an anti-love person.


The first thing that is noticeable is the realistic touch that the characters have been given and the high quality of the background scenery.
What does irritate me is that you can see the frame rate from moving things.

For the first time ever i heard a Japanese voice actor talking English that is understandable and correct.

Even when i dislike the character animation i sort of like where it is going to.
Just a group of friends in the same school and class and they talk about the usual boy-stuff.

I just love how even the smallest thing is drawn well!

The rust on poles, holes in the ground, cracks on the wall, facial expressions, ripples in clothing when moving and much more.

Everyone good group of friends always has one overweight person in it.
The only ones allowed to call him 'fatty' are close friends.

And here there is a guy called Yamada who i could befriend too.
He looks like my fat friend and somehow shows signs of having the same personality.

The summary gives away what the first two episodes are about which is kind of a spoiler if you do read summaries.

Kasuga Takao, who has the lead role, is influenced by books.
The book 'Aku No Hana' is what it seems to me, what makes him do bad things.

The funny thing is that the delinquent Nakamura pushes him towards the popular girl from class which makes him bump his head between her breasts.

The song at the end just creeps my out.



I think i will hate and love this one.

I will start with the what i will hate part.

The transformations.

That is it you know.

It is not like Yumeria yet where half the episode is lost to transformations, but if they do it every time with such an extended scene then it is boring.

What i love?

THE FAIRY!
Small, honest, a glutton, great sense of humor and just giving us a cuteness overload.

Her name is Syrup.

I was really not expecting Kite to show up.
He got a make-over from brown hair to white and a different outfit.

I have only seen a couple episodes of the old Hunter X Hunter, but it fills some gaps that make it quite interesting.

I want to know what is up with the 'queen' because she ...well yeah, was talking about needing to birth a king.

Two girls with the same size, weapon, looks and outfit.

The creator behind Shakugan no Shana and Toradora certainly had no time to create a different look and just decided to change the colour of their hair, eyes and a slightly different hairstyle.

Their character is even the same as they are both Tsundere AND their love problem is also the same.

Not to mention that the voice actor is ALSO the same.

On the left we have Taiga from Toradora! and on the the right we have Shana from Shakugan no Shana.

Oh what is this?

Is it possible?

A third look-a-like?

Why yes there is!

This one is called Louise Françoise Le Blanc de La Vallière From Zero no Tsukaima and she also has the same voice and type of personality like the two mentioned above.
The only difference is that Louise is using a wand instead of a sword.

I watched this one in one go and have to say that it is rather boring.

Okay it is cool that some people have superpowers, but the way this series is going is just plain boring.

A power that even the 'power cards' don't know?
Defeating gods and demons alike as if it is nothing at all?

I do dislike how they have drawn Izayoi with headphones that aren't connected to anything.
I don't know if it is to be considered fashion, but to me it just looks ridiculous.

There is one character that i can't get enough from and that is Merun!

A Faerie that Asuka picked up and befriended.
It is just so cute that no one would be able to resist her.



I finished this one too and have to say that the concept and all is very interesting.
What does ruin the whole series in my opinion is that it is all nonchalantly acting and the battles are boring and one-sided.

I am going to start watching the second season and i hope things get a bit serious instead it all being flashy and trying to be funny all the time.



I forgot to keep this one up to date, shame on me.

The village shows its true colors and so does everyone that is considered an adult.
It is kind of cool that every child has a name with a meaning behind it.

The little war is also becoming rather cool with the rats and i doubt that a little fight is the last thing we are going to get to see from them.

I am currently at episode 16.


I am glad to announce that we can enjoy yet another war-past-present filler!
Not going to waste any more words than this on it.


Well this is sort of surprising.

People that show up before Gon that were not willing to fight, but to offer a reasonable deal.

I want to see the next episode because of their smart ttrick they've played on the creators of GREED ISLAND.

Yet another crossover episode with Toriko and now Goku takes his entree as one of the 3 biggest foodmunchers there are in the world of Anime.

The whole thing was funny to see, but i got irritated with the voices that each of the Dragon Ball characters have gotten.

I have never watched the Japanese version of Dragon Ball so it could be just that what i hate about it.

I love this one.

The guy is somehow representing how i am and i can totally understand why he is having trouble with showing emotions.

I was always the quiet one in class and never showed any interest despite having the interest to do things.
I have the perfect poker face just as Nakamura when it comes to showing affection and i do it by buying things.

The girl, Fujisaki Kasumi, is also very cute and kind of a dreamer which is funny and cute at the same time.

The way the characters are drawn is rather the same as many romance one-shots that are in the Shōjo genre.


Art : Good.
Story : I love it.

Page count : I wouldn't mind more, but then again i could just watch or read Kimi ni Todoke.
The only difference is that the roles are reversed.

I gave Suki dake ja Wakaranai a well deserved 3.5 out of 5 on Anime-Planet.

Well it is one of those endings that seems to be hinting for another season.
I just don't know why, but it just feels like it that it will be like this.

I seriously hoped for a battle, but i should've kept in mind that there has not been a serious battle yet.

Too bad this one had to endalready.
The ending is quite.... ballsy (you'll get it when you see it).


SHOLOLOLOLOLO!
I bet i won't forget this laugh even when One Piece might reach episode 1000.

There are so many laughters that are so annoying!

Shololololo is funny at first, but imagine hearing it every 2 minutes.
Only people just as crazy as CC could stand it! Oh wait, i just called myself crazy...



Now that Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic has ended i am waiting for a season 2 for this series!

They do seem to have rushed the ending as the new dark king was super easy to defeat despite being in his full form.
I would never want to get a kick from Morgiana.

I love it!

I just love all the misunderstanding moments and the story as well.
The characters are also drawn nicely and their voices match their looks.


I kind of like the irony that two people who hate love are getting a relationship for another going.
There is also something that tells me that the writer behind this wants to make sure we realize that even if you are getting bad grades, studying will get you further.


I wonder how Greed Island works because you can lose limbs and just regain them with one of the cards.
It is set in the real world and everything is created with Nen if i am correct?
So to me it seems like there are people that can heal their own limbs that they've lost.

Something like this is called shipping.

Shipping is pairing two characters together that are not together in the original story or they are from another story.

Panty on the left and Bunny on the right

Here with this crossover you will recognize Panty from Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt with Barnaby Brooks JR. from Tiger & Bunny.

This couple does seem to be perfect as Panty is a nympho and Barnaby is not interested in anything like love.


Rock Lee and Momoko Kuzuryuu working together?
They'll make sure no ass will be left unkicked.

Most of you might know Rock Lee and is never ending determination to become the strongest without the use of weapons and severe training that a normal human being can't handle.

Momoko is the strongest girl, hence the strongest bride is part of this series title and fights for her one and only love.
Lee fights for his friends and his country with all he got.

Put these two together and you get a team that destroys everyone that dare to threaten those they love.

What do they have in common?

They both are strong, fight without weapons, never use their full power unless needed.
They are both cheerful and are always positive and are chivalrous towards the enemy in combat.
