The New Season Begins…
Just a few more hours till the start of the new season! (Not counting the stuff that I am not interested in, that is) Here’s a list of stuff that I will be trying out. I wonder how many of them will survive past the first episode…
I shall now attempt to summarize all of them with just one line each… :O
Lovely Idol: Aoi Nishimata design with WTF seiyuu combinations. (And rabudoru is short for “Lovely Idol“, not “Love Doll”…)
Tokimeki Memorial ～Only Love～: Anime based on classic dating sim game defiled turned MMORPG, with all signs pointing to “suck” but I will watch the first episode anyway because I am such a tool TokiMemo fanboy.
DEATH NOTE: Story about a guy who finds the notebook of a God of Death and now possesses the ability to kill anyone in the world just by writing down his/her name, with surprisingly (pseudo) intellectual story and cute girl(s).
D.Gray-man: Story set in a fantasy 19th century Europe about “exorcists” and people who generally do not look European.
Super Robot Wars OG ～Divine Wars～: Classic mecha turn-based strategy game made into an anime, but without the crazy crossovers found in the latest incarnations of the game. (OG stands for Original Generation…)
Negima!?: The Final Redemption.
Yoake Mae yori Ruriiro na Crescent Love: 18-kin game turned anime with Feena, one of the hawtest heroines in recent times.
Kanon: Sad-girl-in-snow story about Nayuki’s journey of self-realization and Mai and Sayuri’s hawt and forbidden yuri love, also occasionally featuring an annoying girl who likes to eat Taiyaki and waste precious airtime. (Nayuki-chan, ganbare!)
Gin’iro no Olynssis: I don’t care what this mecha show thingy is about but the girl looks like Lacus Clyne. :3
Gift ～eternal rainbow～: Da Capo — The Bootleg Version.
Sumomo mo Momomo ～chijou saikyou no otome～: No fucking idea but it looks crazy enough to work.
Happiness!: I believe that Admiral Ackbar from the Star Wars trilogy sums it up pretty well.
Kujibiki Unbalance: Required viewing for the next Genshiken meeting, about a guy who looks loser and probably is one and a tsundere student council president who wears a helmet over her head for some inexplicable reason.
Jigoku Shoujo Futakomori: あなたの怨み、晴らします。 (That said, I have yet to finish the first season…)
Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru: TRAP TRAP TRAP TRAP TRAP TRAP with Yui Horie voicing the WTFZOMG TRAP.
Hatarakiman: No idea but it looks like it’s about office life antics in a weekly magazine.
On a side note, my exams are next week! Life is good…

But we all know in the end that occasionally appearing girl won. It sucks to be Nayuki. Will they release a multi-ending DVD edition?

…It happened for KimiNozo!

DAY THREE VERDICT
Negima!?: WAAAAY better than the first series. Has potential for greatness.
Yoake Mae yori Ruriiro na Crescent Love: FEENA-SAMA IS INSTANT WIN DESU!!!

Yeah…does anyone know the artist for the opening to “Yoake Mae yori Ruri-iro na -Crescent Love-” i think i’s called “~we are not alone~” or something like that?

DAY FOUR VERDICT
Happiness!: Could be better, but good enough to continue.
Gift ～eternal rainbow～: Wow. A lot better than expected. But totally a Da Capo rip off!
Kanon: NAYUKI!!!
Haven’t had the time for Gin’iro no Olynssis yet…
