Finishing up the spring season and I need stuff to watch. So here is the stuff I’m currently watching or going to watch. I took a few screenshots but decided against doing it for all because I’m just lazy like that.

  • Ookamisan to Shichinin no Nakamatachi – Wow that was an annoying name to type out. It’s like Taiga v2.. flat chest, looks the same. Probably same VA but I don’t care to find out.

After watching the first two episodes of the series and discussing it with another anime nerd.. whom happens to be more knowledgeable about other things. We have come to a conclusion was that this is awesome. A surprise, right?

So far, I’ve yet to see any whiny bitching made by the cast of characters like a few certain people from the previous Gundam series. This has been a major improvement because the last thing I want to hear would be XXXX crying out doing some super move that wins that battle and afterwards seeing a river of tears flowing down his face. Appearances of the characters do not bother me too much but it seems as if all the pilots are male this time around. Possibly to make it less emotional but all of them seem to look like stuck up pricks.

My mind is a bit hazy but I recall there being fewer Gundam pilots this time. Although the core specialty Gundams are still there.

Prism Ark

I’m still alive! It has been a busy week for me and going to get harder next and because of that, I’ve had the last week to download a lot and now have quite an amount of unwatched items. Today, I decided to take a look at Prism Ark. Again, this is another anime based on a eroge game. YAY! Must download that now!

The setting seems to be in a medieval like setting with magic and stuff. Taking place in a continent similar to that of Europe. There seems to be a war happening for some reason. I have no idea what’s going on.

This season seems to be quite a busy one with many notable titles and by well known companies and directors. I feel that I should share this unnecessary list of my current watch list this season, last, and things I just picked up randomly. Perhaps, even make a ‘I need to download x series’ list. Just depends on how I feel after I make my list.

There were several other first episodes I wanted to comment on but being the lazy and busy person that I am. I will combine them all into a single post. I hope that with this, I don’t run out of material for a while. I am also going to post the raw pictures. Taking the screen caps was troublesome enough.

Here we go. I will start with old anime that has not quite finished yet. I will exclude certain animes that has gone over the 100 episode mark and D Gray.

The old stuff

• Baccano

An unique anime that takes place around and events leading up to a massive train homicide. Focusing on several characters and their part in this event.

Da Capo II

I’ve watched the first series and I moderately enjoyed it. I stopped watching the second season in the middle because I couldn’t stand this certain character whom I don’t remember the name of. And since several things such as games, anime, and movies crappier when a sequel or a continuation is followed. I truly don’t expect much from it. But being a sucker for harem anime, I have to give it a try.

It shouldn’t be a mystery that this was based off a hentai game. Which was based on another popular bishoujo game which shares a similar name. Sequel to the first, it has been the culprit that stole the sleep of countless nerds that played the game and angered many more when the anime did not follow the Kotori storyline. The story here takes place a half a century after Da Capo and second season.

Clannad

And the hugely anticipated anime by VisualArt’s/Key is out. The company alone is enough to make you want to watch it. Well known for their previous titles. Usually with a strong story behind them, cast of cute and sometimes sexy girls but (sadly) generic female roles, and their clean animation style. I never played this game before.. mainly because it is quite difficult to obtain. That and I cannot read Japanese. But after watching the first episode. I’m already in love with this show.

Did I mention about their cast of females? Disgustingly cute.

Myself; Yourself

Instead of doing my chemistry lab report. I’ve decided to watch something. The start of the new anime season is a busy time… having to download several new series to see whether or not they are worth watching. Unable to read those kanji characters, I have no idea what to expect from the stuff I’m watching.

The first thing I downloaded was Myself; Yourself.
