10 days of anime christmas day 2

Powerful Male in anime.



Now to most otakus or at least elder otakus this is a hand down answers Spike Speigle from cowboy bebop. He's a kickass guy who goes with the flow. For me this was going to be my answer as well but i wanted to talk about another powerful male from the same series.

Vicious

"OH MY GOD"!  "WTF!" "Just why the hell did you choose a VILLIAN as a powerful character?!" Let me explain. Vicious is a powerful male because he never really get his hand dirty unless he is fighting which most of the time it's Spike. Not much is known about Vicious except the fact  he and Spike was in the Red Dragons together. He is very good with a sword  and is sort of a master of manipulation (see Jupter Jazz pt2). What makes him even more powerful is that he is the only person who can hold his own against Spike and push Spike to the point of death and at the end well, see episode 26. Besides Victor in the Cowboy Bebop movie(whats with villian that start with V's)  who also does a pretty good job with with holding his own against Spike nobody does it like Vicious. Vicious is also the only man who can mentally fuck with Spike as well.  When caught by the Red Dragons he willing let himself be thrown in their jail untill he was busted out and forced his lackys to kill the heads the Red Dragons and created the New Red Dragons.  He is a walking mob boss ,The best Villian, and a power male in anime i've seen so far.

side note- he's kinda underrated too. 

10 Days of Anime Christmas

Ok. So originally this was going to be  the little buster refrain 9 and 10 review but  it's really hard to review it and not mention spoilers and i do not want to spoil those two episodes because those are key episode in the series epically episode 10. I might hold of doing a review till the whole series is finished. All i have to say is Kengo i feel ya man.


 This is the 10 Days of Anime Christmas!

I will explore the lands of anime and  rating  my top series from years past and this year anime giving  you  a indept  explenation behind every one.

Seeing how its the first day  let get this ball a rolling.

Day one


Powerful Female in a Anime Series  you seen?

I've seen alot of anime with powerful females. Remy from Black Lagoon comes to mind as a very powerful female even to alot of otakus. To me however the most powerful female in any anime series  would be Faye Valentine

What so powerful about her? you ask.  Well beside she holds her own with the bebop crew. She's  doesn't play victim whenever she does get kidnap instead she kicks ass and takes name(or money in her case). She is a modern day  Femm Fatale and reminds me of Fujiko from Lupin the 3rd.   During one of the episode we learn a little history about her background but despite learning the fact that she was cryogenicaly  frozen  and doesn't remembers a thing about her past she still doesn't let that fact slow her down.  Even now if you ask some male otaku's who have  watch this show they would put  Faye up there. Faye is a timeless, classic, character.  She really doesn't depend on the crew that much(when she does it to bail her out of a bad situation), She a seductress, and she very good with her fist and a gun.  Faye Valentine is one of the powerful female i seen in a anime series so far.

Diabolik Lovers

This is going to be a rant. I really just have too much to say to make this a proper review of this series because, ugh. anyway now that this semi disclaimer is out the way.

Let Go in.


Diabolik lovers. FUCK THIS SHOW!

No seriously. FUCK THIS SHOW! I had high hope when i heard this was going to be made into a anime but i kept my hopes reasonable because of what happen when the animated Dangan Rompa  but i thought that maybe it would be half way decent seeing how at least Amesia was good.

Nope. Nope.. HELL MUTTA FUCKING NO.

I really don't even know what to say about this show!  Somewhere along the lines the plot gotten lost, i mean i got the fact that she was one girl surrounded by 6 vampire guys and all want to eat her but the plot im talking about is WHAT WAS THE PURPOSE OF IT?! WE DON'T FUCKING FIND OUT TILL THE LAST 2 FUCKING EPISODES!!

 This show is so bad. Terrible. See Dangan Rompa Get a pass sure it was bad but it was bad-good. Meaning that it was bad in a good way. This show was just God awful.  Bad-Bad.

If you have the luxury to get the english patch or understand Japanese  PLAY THE FUCKING GAME!!!  Watching this show was pointless.At the end they want to pull out the Otome (now pick a guy) card AT THE END OF THE LAST EPISODE!! WHAT A WASTE.

This show had potentioal. They could have made each arc about the main girl interacting with one of the guys and not this cluster fuck of this shit.

By the way  what made this even bad is that the girl to me she was a basic bitch.  I mean there are some stupid anime characters in anime but they don't hold a candle to this basic bitch.


UGH!!! The only really characters i really cared for in that show was Shu  and Subaru and it took me till episode 6 to even learn everybody's name!!

Laito- pervertert and need to lay of the fadora
Ayato- overhyped and i really do not care for him
Reiji- He is so useless. I really don't see the point of having him in the series To be honest
Shu- He doesn't Give a Fuck and that why i liked him so much
Subaru-The only vampire with fucking comon sence but nobody is here for him but me.
Kanato- i was here for him but they didn't use his character enough


This should have just stayed a game. I hope they don't even try to animate the second game ~more Blood~ because i will not watch it!


This show is a waste. I hate this show. FUCK THIS SHOW!

Serial expermental Lain and Michiko to Hatchin

During Thanksgiving i did promise that i was going to rewatch Lain because i did plan to review it.  I watched it. I watch the Sub, I didn't watch it dub this time.  Well I went in it thinking that it will give me the same philosophical impact that it did when i first watch the dub when i was 13 years old which it did but, somehow this time it left a void. A unexpected void that took me kinda two to three days to get over.  Lain takes places in the future or the distance future but  the whole center around Lain is internet. When i first saw Lain it was when there was STILL a G4 and when G4 still showed anime. I usually  would stay up late to watch it.  Once it did in when i first saw it it left this Philosophical empact in me at the time that it stayed with me for fuck a decade. For this to be a show made back when the Cyber punk era was phasing out(1998-2005) in anime most of the dialog in this show is still paramount even today. "No matter where you go..Everyone is connected" from lain of the wired in episode 2 and when you think about it now. With all these smart phones, computers, apps, ect its like no mater where you go you are always connected.

Please for the love of god watch this show! you will know what i mean. I mean you might have a different view from me but please check this show out. To me this was Yoshitoshi ABe top work.

 

Ok. Next a SPECIAL DOUBLE BONUS REVIEW. This was going to be a separate review on its own but i decided seeing how i made you guys wait a while and im somewhat better to do a review i figure i might i well cram this one in here too.  Michiko to Hatchin, Michiko E Hatchin, Michiko and Hatchin depending on what your prefrence is when referring to this show, It's the only anime i've seen that takes places outside of japan(without it having to take place in space or another world) It takes place in South America specifally Brazil. This Show was made back in 2008. I've seen the Sub in 2011 and now that i have the Funimation Channel i've seen the dub this year.  The whole Plot Center around Michiko and Hatchin trying to find Hatchin Real dad. From the summary alone you might think its a pretty boring show. It's not it's actually interesting and kinda underrated.  Now which one do i prefere the Sub or the Dub? Both are ok. Both are good to watch. Im am surprised that Funimation did a great job with the dubs because i haven't been in love with their dubs for years.  Which one do i like however- Sub. It just something about it  that holds this grit to it which this show is and the sub cast does a good job of making you feel that way.

Again check this show out. I heard it was made by the they directors of Cowboy bebop and Samurai Champloo i don't know if this is true or not but this is a show worth a good look.

 

Little buster` Refrain episode 8

Ok i was going to save this for tommrow because i was going to do the monogatari review  but i really need to do this post done and i can easly sum up monogatari

ITS SOME FUCK SHIT.
monogatari is getting boring now and its trying to live off of it's hype. Its so predictable. Im glad that Senjogahara is back to being a tsudere but its a bit too late seeing how we only got a few more episode till its over.Also Agari is THE WORST BOYFRIEND i've ever seen in anime.

Moving along

We start off LB Refrain with Riki and Rin trying to figure out how to get  the Little buster back together. to be presise  which memeber should they try to get back first. Riki ask Rin who did she met first she said Masato, So they work on getting Masato back into the group or duo at this point.
Riki and Rin are in the Cafeteria and they see Masato sitting alone and they ask him if he want to be apart of the Little Buster again. For some reason this make Masato flip his shit because he says no and then he says "im the strongest" and "i going to start proving how strong i am!" A day later he is knocking out people in the hallway for no reason. Its like 5 people aready in the nurses office and there are teachers telling Riki and Rin that if he see him do no fight him just report him.

Can we just aknowledge the lazy  teachers who don't even attempt to stop Masato

Being the loving caring friend that they are Rin and Riki try to come up with a plan to stop Masato. On Riki end it was more technical while on Rin it was just hanging up badly drawn posters everywhere. Even on benches. This took all day mind you. So when Masato gotten near the trap Riki had set up (which was a glove that had the badly drawn poster of him on it) he punched it and it blew him back onto the school statue which had glue and glue him there. Masato eyes were glowing red and i found that to be odd. I knew he was mad but whats with the glowing red eyes?

When Riki and Rin thought  that was it with masato being glued to the statue, Masato LIFTS  the statue (with him stilled glued to it) from the ground and starts to chase Riki and Rin

 Im going to sum up the chase sceane by saying masato falls and breaks the statue he was glued too  yet he still was somehow glued to it.

Rin on on the roof (don't ask me how she even got there  i don't even know) waiting for the signal to drop a net on Masato. Riki gives her the signal and BAM! the net comes down and the statue breaks BUT!  Masato still is standing even goes as far as to ask Riki "are you done with your trick?" Riki retors with "Yep i'm all out of ideas"  and he puts up his fist to fight masato


Im going to stop right here because Im pretty sure i spoiled enough but im not that huge of a bitch to let you know how the fight goes.

This episode was very good. My questions were at a minimum but it seem that the last couple of episode will be them getting the original little buster back that just a theory of mines.

This episode should have been titled "We need to keep a Eye on Masato. He might go a bit nuts"

OHH i can't wait till next week.

Little Buster Refrain episode 7

um..well somehow this is getting very dark very fast.

Rin has become so depressed that she only smiles when she is around children. why i don't know and that kinda makes her seem like a pedo as well but whatever.  Kyousuke is gone in 1/4 of the beginning of the anime when Kengo and Masato fight. Riki tries his hardest to difusses the situation but nope doesn't work. They fight Kengo ends up with  a broken arm. Kyousuke appares later and now he's a hikkikimori. When the fuck did that happen? Why did it happen i would like to know.

So while Riki was talking to him he begins to talk to Riki in some Crypic message  saying "you still haven't solved the mysteries of this world" bullshit meaning i still don't know what the fuck is going on.  He tell Riki to leave because he is "getting to the good part" in his book.  Riki is confused(as he should be) because 1) Kengo and Masato are on the outs 2) Rin only likes to be around him but yet only smiles around children and 3) the Little Busters are falling apart. Side note what happen to Komari? Did KEY just kill her off screen? No explination. No warnings. No nothing. Back in the dorms Riki was talking to Kengo about Rin and Kyousuke  He tells Riki to leave Kyousuke alone but that Rin still loves him and to come up with something fun they can all do.

During one of his visit  with Rin he take her and decide to  become her kyousuke and help her break out of her depressed state.

So they look for something fun to do. Coming up empty they almost give up. Untill that same white cat Lennon plays with a baseball and Riki pick it up and ask Rin if she want to try she says yes. Some how this bring back a nostagic feeling for both because i don't know how they forgot they BOTH WAS ON A BASEBALL TEAM!! This promts Riki to remember the question Kengo asked him and soon he returns with a box full of bats and mits and tell Rin that Kengo and Masato will show up to join them.

Masato show up first but then Rin hides behind Riki. It might be because she is broken down and scared of people that she wasn't her Tsundere self but i was expecting her to kick Masato. Then Kengo show up. Some how Kengo is very upset by Riki wanting to start playing baseball.  He even tell him "It's Just like Him!" meaning Kyousuke and tell riki that he isn't going to play. Riki is even more curious and start asking masato what the fuck is going on. Masato tell him " He's come far enough " and hand him back the baseball glove and then leaves.

OH GREAT. Just when i thought everything was going to be solved EVEN MORE FUCKING QUESTIONS.

It wasn't as sad as the last couple of episode have been but it was very dark FOR IT TO BE A SHOW ABOUT BASEBALL! and what happen to Kyousuke? What made him a recluse like that?  What does he know? Mater of fact what does He, Kengo,and Masato know that Riki and Rin don't?

Halloween theme episode in anime

Happy Halloween everyone

(if you are reading this the day after then happy day after halloween )

Hope you are enjoying your candy, snacks, or whatever you are enjoying.

While sitting here a though accured to me how come there aren't any halloween themed anime episode in anime?

We always get the obligitory chrismas episodes  when it comes to anime. One could aruge that "well Halloween is a American thing i never heared of the Japanese Celebrating halloween"  while others like me could easly call bullshit on that.

Halloween is an American holiday but there are other countries that do happen to celeibrate it as well as us they might not do the whole door to door trick or treat thing but the whole aspect of dressing up they do..

Back on topic, When it comes to anime How come we never get a halloween theme anime episode?
Cowboy bebop Knocking on heaven's door was centered around Halloween and the epic fight at the end took place during a big Halloween parade but that a MOVIE.What about shows? Hyouka had two characters dresses as pumpkins and  come in to the classroom where orieki was and said "Trick or Treat" before handing him a water gun but this was during the school festival.

We as otakus are forced to watch things like Hellsing utimate,  The blood series(blood the last vampire, blood+ and the other blood movie i don't recommend blood-c)  or any monster anime. I just want a anime with a halloween episode in it. Am i the only one?
