2008 Autumn new anime reviews
Kuroshitsuji #01
The story is about Sebastian, the butler of the 12 year old head of a noble family, Ciel Phantomhive. He masters the tasks given by his master easy, due to his demonic bloodline and a contract.
Next to him the household has Finian the gardener, Meirin the maid, Bard the cook and Tanaka-san the steward (who mostly does nothing at all)
Sebastian isn't going easy with them.
Agh, fanservice full force.
While the lord calls him the comedy-trio tries to do his job. They see it as a chance to show what they can do. But the nicely did work of Sebastian becomes quickly undone by their effort.
Now the problem: a guest will be comming in 2 hours. But even in a pinch like this Sebastian can think of something. XD
While they are working on the dinner, their master plays a game with the guest... Quite a game for a 12 year old kid, with parts like, 'lost a limb' and 'flames of hell' fields. The interesting part is, that as the guest walks the house, he gets to experience these fields in real. Well, it can be accidental...~ but don't think so.
I'm always telling Japanese food rocks... now we have another spokesman for that. XD
Even Sebastians hard work can be messe dup by Meirin, who is like some otaku~. And to whom she is a fan of? It shouldn't be a question.
Wouldn't be a good demon-butler if he couldn't save the day... again.
Couldn't really understand the end, and that is the reason why I'm hesitating to watch more of it. As I already wrote the guest has accidents like the fields of the game said. He begins to see ghosts, breaks a leg, and then as he hides somewhere dark Sebastian heats the oven...
Still, I loved the ending. I'll try to put it up on Sunday. Look forward to it. ^^
Noramimi 2 #01
This anime looks close to Doreamon. Guess it's for little children. If I got it right these guys are fantasy-characters for children. But they talk about being charas like one would of work. There was this series on Cartoon Network, what was it again? That blue guy, and that rabbit~ Ah, got it! Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends. This seems close to that one, only Japanese.
Hokuto no Ken Raoh Gaiden Ten no Haoh #01
A new Fist of the North Star series. u.u If you ask me, blood is one thing, but these muscle-animes are hard on ones stomach. T_T
If one is interested, or knows the story, it's with Raou's perspective.
Really not interested in this one. ~_~
Tentai senshi Sunred #01
This one is brilliant! Even if Rid wouldn't have mentioned it, I would recommend it to anyone who likes a good laugh. XD
The villians of this Earth are planning th crush the world... the only one who stands in their way is Sunred senshi.
This is a comedy series and even though the drawings are rough, the short stories make one laugh. XD Like the fact that Sunred always wears that mask. I mean really always. Then there is his shirt - which is close to the one from Jubei-chan - always with something written on it, close to his mood. Then there are those faceless guys with numbered masks.
And Sunred always lectures them! XD
Anyway WATCH IT! It's great fun! ^___^
CLANNAD ~ After Story ~ #01
Sequel of CLANNAD. Not my type of anime, so don't think I'll watch it. Harem-anime, with a bunch of girls and one boy, in a melodramatic story. ~.~
Hakushaku to Yousei #01
Well, well, what do we have here? A talking cat, a Fairy doctor and a lord with mystic eyes looking for a treasured sword. I must say even from the trailer I already decided that I want to watch this one. Story not the one I imaged, but it can still come. ^.^
Interesting fact is that this is already the second anime playing in England after Kuroshitsuji. Who wants to make connections? XD
The beginning is good. (I thought so with Elfen Lied too, and it became an ecchi-loli massacre. u.u") A cellar, torture, a mysterious guy looking for information, and then a gunshoot...
Lydia Carlton is a Fairy doctor. She can see them, and knows many of their legends. But not many belived her, since she is the only one who can not only see them, but can talk to them too.
One day she gets a letter from her dad, who calls her to London.
There is some narrator talk about the lord, fantastic craetures and fairies by Lydia's father. Next to that they show the sword (that they will be looking for I guess), quite a lot of creatures, and he talks about the fact that Lydia decided to be a fairy doctor, since her mother was one too.
Nico the cat is a bit strange even for a talking cat. Reading the news, and drinking isn't something I would image, but he does it both.
Lydia can't really understand why she gets a great room on the ship, since usually her dad always gets the cheepest for her. But here was someone in her room! And it looks like he was tortured!
Don't know from where they got it that english people kiss the hair of the adored person~ if that really wouldn't be true, we wouldn't hear so many about 'cold english people'.
Anyway now they need to run away together.
AGH, I MUST say it or I'll get crazy. THIS IS TAMAKI!!! Even the narcism is the same!!!
And another! I can only say Hakim from Victorian Romance Emma... well, a younger version. And as the lord's butler. Whaa, niawaneee!
Now it seems Lydia is still in trouble. Edgar was her mysterious guy, and just as the other guys he wants her... He planned to take her, and now she is on another ship, that already is on the sea.
The truth is, the he doesn't have the power to see fairies, and so he needs the help of the fairy doctor, so Lydia. While she chan choose to help or not, since she runned away with him now they are both being wanted...
To Aru Majutsu no Index #01
Kamijo Toma's right hand will negate all magic, psychic, or divine powers, but not his own bad luck. One day he finds a young girl hanging on his balcony railing. She turns out to be a nun, Index and her mind has been implanted with magical texts the Church has removed from circulation. Those of the magic circle want this knowledge, and they do everything in their power to get it...
Now for the anime... It isn't always the best to begin with a space-scene. My brother was watching it with me, and since he had enough of space-animes, he decided that he doesn't like it at first look, even though this has NO connection with that type of animes.
It seems to get interesting from the second part (after watching the preview) so I'll look forward to that. ^^
Kurogane no Linebarrels #01
Hayase Kouichi escaped his daily life of being bullied as a child by daydreaming about being a hero. His life changes forever as one day something falls from the sky... and he meets a mysterious amnesiac girl. Due to this "accident", Kouichi found himself with strange powers, including superhuman strength.
As JUDA - the world's largest medical equipment maker, and owner of several Machina robots - attacks, Kouichi calls Linebarrel, a robot connected to the girl Kizaki Emi. She revals that by the accident before Kouichi already died. The Machina robot Linabarrel turned him into a "Factor" (a pilote for these mechas), and revieved him through inserting nanobots into his body.
HYAKKO #01
Nonomura Ayumi is a freshman in a very prestigous and large private high school, and instantly becomes lost. She meets Iidzuka Tatsuki, Kageyama Torako, and Saotome Suzume on her first day (who were also lost) and the four become instantly connected.
22 minutes of 4 girls getting lost in a school... NOT asking for directions while meeting a teacher... and then hittiing another KO just because he saw them~. u.u" Please, if you want to make a comedy, do it a bit more interesting!
Kyou no 5 no 2 #01
Oh, I LOVE this anime! ^^ Can't really write a story. Every episode is with short stories, school life a little in an ecchi and comical way. ^^
