Some more series talk: ^__^
Himitsu no Hanazono: This is okay. A mix of drama, comedy... Hongo Kanata still looks like a middle schooler even though he's like 17 or 18 already. Hehe... There's this scene wherein he imitated Ryouma Echizen. He and his brother there were playing tennis and when he beat the brother, he said "Mada mada da ne..". ^_^ I was expecting a more romantic ending for two characters there but I guess since it's not really the focus so... there... Lol...
Darker than Black: Okay as well. Quite violent and dark. You'll see people getting sliced (eeww..), body parts scattered (another eeww)... It kinda reminds me of Heroes since some people acquired powers when a so-called Hell's Gate was opened years ago. But every time they use their powers, they have to do something in return. It can range from breaking your fingers to eating a flower... O_O The whole plot/story is not really clear yet. There's this whole Contractors and Dolls thing going on that I'm not sure yet what their difference and purpose are. ^^;; I also like the OP sequence and song. Oh! There's a talking cat here, kinda like in Bleach...forgot the character's name. Ehehe...
Code Geass: So I decided to continue this. It got interesting upon watching episode 2. I was hesitant to watch this because I'm not really into mecha. And the characters have such huge eyes...as expected from CLAMP. But the quality of the anime is good. And the story is not focused on the machines anyway. One thing I noticed here is how much they advertise Pizza Hut. I think I saw Pizza Hut logos in every episode and one of the characters loves to eat pizza so she orders one from Pizza Hut everyday. O_o;;
The main character Lelouch reminds me of Yagami Raito probably because of his personality and voice. They don't have the same seiyuu though but this seiyuu voiced Watanuki Kimihiro of xxxHolic! Their voices are totally different! o_O
Also, I've noticed that some characters here look like some characters in other CLAMP works. The second main guy here looks like an older version of Li Shaoran of CCS. Another one kinda looks like Yukito... And some characters from Tsubasa Chronicles. ^__^
Heroes: Quite an interesting turn of events... Another one (or two) dies?! Not sure yet... Will know by the next episode if they really did die. Season 1 nears its end... And then, it'll be a long wait for the next season... Sigh...
Air Gear: They really do cut out scenes... The local network showing this here, I mean... I'd understand if they're the suggestive, kinda perverted scenes but when I checked out the original version, they cut a non-perverted one... That's why sometimes I feel like I couldn't understand what's going on. ^^;; I checked out episode 10 again with the Ikki-Akito kiss. Waaiii~!!! XDDD
