“A sound soul dwells within a sound mind, and a sound body.” It sounds like the mantra of some Zen teaching, but it’s the opening lines of an anime that takes you for a thrilling fantasy ride. My final review for the year is a one-of-a-kind anime series.
Improbable Friends, Impulsive Dreams, and Trust in Panties – The Pet Girl of Sakaurasou Review
Today I review a series that explores the age old battle of hard work vs. talent. No, I’m not talking about Rock Lee and Neji from Naruto. The competitive world of Arts majors is much more dramatic and unpredictable than your shounen anime. Believe it!
The Art of Tiger Training or How to Become a Dragon – A Toradora! Review
Remember that time in high school when you met that person you really couldn’t stand, but you liked her best friend and she liked yours? No? Well pretend you do because I can’t say this anime portrays the situation realistically if you don’t.
Maximizing your otaku lifestyle – a Himouto! Umaru-chan Review
Work and chores can wait. We have anime to review! Grab some cola and chips, and don’t worry about the mess, Onii-chan will clean it up.
Fall fashions and baring your heart for the world to see – a Kill la Kill review
Today I take a non-stop thrill ride wrought with danger, wide scale violence, and unchecked emotion. No, I’m not going clothes shopping… I’m reviewing anime!
Review: Black Butler
Today I’ll review a series where selling your soul for a demon’s services gets as literal as possible. Can I offer a fresh look at this popular title? An anime reviewer that won’t try simply wouldn’t be worth his salt.
You can’t move forward without the pain.
Review: Ouran High School Host Club
Today we’re off to a place where the handsomest boys with too much time on their hands entertain young ladies who also have way too much time on their hands. Just think of Music Room #3 as an elegant playground for the super-rich and beautiful. I hate all these damn rich people…
Review: Myriad Colors Phantom World
Today I’ll be doing a review of one of the more modern animes that I’ve watched this year. When troublesome spirits invade the human world, who you gonna call? High-schoolers, obviously.
Review: My Little Monster
Most everyone can get behind a love story between unlikely people, but what if those people are a bookworm and a sociopath? Add in a chicken and we have a recipe for entertainment. Today we take a look at a surprisingly funny series where a choice must be made between academics and love.
