"Umineko no Naku Koro ni" episode 6

WOW.

Just WOW.

This episode seemed totally different from the rest if you ask me. =P It seemed more modern, I guess, because they didn't stick on the island the whole time. But, no, I'm not saying it was bad. I liked it. =3 I'm loving this show so far! ^w^ It's odd, though, that I, of all people, like this show. O^o

My brother was trying to get me to watch Higurashi, sense I like this show so much. He said that he's surprise how violent the network let them go, but I reminded him that Higurashi not only is that violent, but also shows the killing scenes, which is the main thing that is freaky. So, no, I won't be watching Higurashi... -_-;;; *still a wimp*

I both like and hate Beatrice...

... somehow. Don't ask how, because I'm not sure... O^o I mean, she acts nice sometimes, but I think that she's really just acting that way for selfish reasons... I don't completely have this witch figured out...

Jessica, this is where you do a Yoshida-type thing (even if I hate Yoshida). D=

Kanon's a little too... serious(?) about his role as a servant. Maybe "old-fashioned" is a better way to put it... Either way, I'm glad he's back, but you're not a piece of furniture, stupid! Geez, you've got an extremely hot girl in love with you and you just turn her down because you're "furniture??" This kid's got his priorities mixed up... -_-;;;

Oh, and...

MARISA STOLE THE PRECIOUS THING.

"The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya" season 2 episode 8

...

Seriously, even while watching the episode, there was nothing more I could say to insult it...

They're trolling us... TT^TT Weeks ago I knew they were trolling us... This is RIDICULOUS now!

Haruhi expresses the look on the viewers' faces: insanity.

"Sora no Manimani" episode 2


Oh, gosh, no... -_-;;;

I sincerely hope that she's not going to be too annoying with her obsessing over Saku... -_-;;; Characters like the annoying the heck outta me!

She's gonna be like Yoshida from Shakugan no Shana, isn't she? An annoying little stalker who goes overboard with everything.

Ugh, I'm just hoping she won't... She only had a few moments in this episode where she was annoying, so maybe it won't be too often...

He's in his Happy Place...

I mentioned in the last post that the president looks like a lovable character, and I still think so! xD I don't know why, but he just is! =D (Though they still haven't explained what the heck's wrong with him...)

Oh gosh, short post! =O Can't think of much else, especially since it's been a few days since I've watched the episode (I was busy over the weekend, so I couldn't post then).

"Sora no Manimani" episode 1


Yay! Deredere in the first episode! =D

I FINALLY got around to watching this episode.

Well, first episodes usually aren't the best, but, hey, it's a romantic comedy, so I'm expecting it to turn out okay. =3 It was pretty good, though. ^w^

Truthfully, both the main characters are sort of annoying, but then somehow lovable at the same time, as in they have both their good and bad points, of course. Mihoshi's energy can be seen as either cute or annoying, actually. I like a hyper attitude (maybe because I have one... >.>;;;), but I have to admit there are some times when you need to calm down at least a little. Saku is too much of a downer, but he does have his excuses. He seemed to be somewhat of a tsundere, though, already showing a bit of his deredere side. =3 I hate tsundere except for their deredere side. xD


I really don't get the club president, though... Why's he always coughing up blood and acting like he's dying? I mean, if they would explain why, I wouldn't be so confused, though he seems like he might be a lovable character (well, at least, if you ignore the blood dripping from his mouth nearly 24/7...). As for the other characters, none of them have really caught much of my attention, except for maybe Fumie, who looks like competition for Mihoshi. xP

This is what happens when two tsundere meet.

"Aoi Hana" episode 3

Alright, so I gave it one last chance...

I'm dropping the show. Not only is it much too lesbian for me, but it's kind of slow-paced, and hence, boring. I mean, I am curious about a couple things, but they aren't worth watching this show... -_-;;;

So, without even talking about the third episode, I announce that I am indeed dropping this show.

Goodbye, Lesbians...


... hello, creepy-little-girl-whom-I-do-not-know-the-sexual-orientation-of.

"The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya" season 2 episode 7

...

Itsuki: the only good thing about a repeating episode...

"Umineko no Naku Koro ni" episode 4

Now there are only five left... O^O

They're all dying so quickly, they're gonna have to come back to life like the epitaph said, or else the show will be done in, like, 5 or 6 episodes. xD


NOOOOOO!!

Kanon was actually pretty awesome (even if he looked like a girl)! D= Why'd he have to die!?


Well, at least Maria didn't die, though I am starting to get creeped out by her. O^o Even within the room with the scorpion on the door and while holding the charm, she still acted possessed, so I don't think she is...

"Aoi Hana" episode 2

Ugh... -_-;;;

Not only is it too yuri for a straight person like me to handle (YES, I am straight!), but it's rather boring so far if you ask me. It's pretty slow-paced and not much is going on.

I'm always so stubborn about dropping shows, though, because I always hope that one episode it'll end up getting better, and if I drop the show, I'll miss that episode. D= But... I don't know... Maybe I'll give it one more episodes to redeem itself, and then decide if I'll continue watching it, but it depends if I can even bear one more... -_-;;;

Seriously, there is like nothing else to post about... -_-;;; That's how boring it was... Ah, well, end of post.

I can't find any picture that's better (no one likes this show... -_-;;;).

"Umineko no Naku Koro ni" episode 3

Tonight on Umineko no Naku Koro ni...

SOMEBODY DIES... Again. And by somebody, I mean two more people. =P

YES! The Jerkette is dead-I mean... It's a shame that Eva had to die... xD She seemed pretty smart though, so she could have been a big help, but, geez, I feel so bad for George! First his could-have-been-fiancée, and now his two parents!

George = Woobie

And, geez, how come no one realizes that something's up with Maria? O^o Does she always act like she's possessed or something?!

"Oh, there's nothing going on here, just acting insane..."

I mean seriously! =P

"Umineko no Naku Koro ni" episode 2

DDDD=

Poor George and Shannon, and Jessica, and Maria, and... Well, you get the point.

Yeah, they did kind of rush in, I agree with the people who say that, but, nonetheless, I like this show so far. =3 Though I can't compare it to the manga, visual novel, or Higurashi.


George and Shannon's relationship may have been out of nowhere, but it was sweet. It took me a moment to realize that he was just telling her to except the ring, and then answer his proposal tomorrow after thinking it over, showing him her answer, which was cute. ^w^ Disagree with me if you want, but that's my opinion and I'm sticking to it. =3

And she was wearing the ring! D=

But nooooo... People can't be happy this early in the show. TT^TT

As I've mentioned before, I'm a wimp, a very squeamish wimp, so I, unlike people who aren't wimps, am happy it was censored, but I can't really talk. =P The most disturbing thing for me was Jessica's crying for her father. 3=

Aww... I believe you, Maria. 3=

Maria's still adorable. =3 (And maybe me favorite. =3)

(For my tags, "ship kill" literally. O^o)

"The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya" season 2 episode 5

END ALREADY ENDLESS EIGHT! Dx

Geez... Well, at least they mixed it up a little bit this episode... I mean, more so than the last one...

Seriously, at the most this could have been three episodes long, if not two. -_-;;;

Alright, if it does not end the next episode, I will rampage! Dx And more than I am now! xP

Oh, and I repeat: Poor Yuki... 3=


(Sorry if I'm a little slow with my posts; I'm slow with watching anime, because I'm also (finally) watching Firefly, so I don't quite have the same amount of time to watch a bunch of anime at night.)

"Aoi Hana" episode 1

Yay! Another new show! =D

Kind of like with Umineko no Naku Koro ni, I'm just sort of jumping into this show without knowing much about it. =P Well, I like slice-of-life type anime, so this might turn out good. =3

Problem is, this show is so yuri... I'm not a fan of that type of thing (or yaoi, by the way)... I'll probably end up stopping in the middle of the show. xD (Ironically, I didn't read the obvious part on Wikipedia saying it's based off of a yuri manga until I checked after watching the first episode... -_-;;;)

Maybe it'll be like Maria-sama ga Miteru and be pretty subtle about it, but, after reading the description, I doubt it... (Man, I can just see someone who has read the manga reading this post and laughing at me... -_-;;;)

... Well, anyway, I guess I'll just take this one episode at a time... So, episode number one!

Now, the first episode really wasn't much, just setting up the plot. Introduces our two main characters and the fact that they used to be inseparable. Also introduces their all-girl schools, some schoolmates, their families, personalities, and so on.

Not much to say besides the fact that am I mistaken or is Fumi in love with her female cousin? O^o I know that cousins can marry in Japan, but it's yuri already! xP

Alright, I honestly cannot say much else... Oh, well, it'll just be a shortish post. =P Well, I have to have at least one picture in each post, so I'm gonna throw a random one at the end. =P

This really should have been my first hint...

"The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya" season 2 episode 4

This is getting kinda tedious... -_-;;;

I mean, at least in the second part, it was pretty different from the first, seeing that Kyon was commenting on Deja Vu, they figured out they were looping in time, etc. This part was exactly the same as the second.

Ironically, my brother told me that some jerk on Wikipedia copied and pasted the info for the last episode and used it for the info for this one. Now I know why.

Man, they could have just concluded it in this episode! When I thought it was just going to be three parts, I jokingly called it the "Endless Three." Now I think it really is going to be the "Endless Eight" with eight episodes. -_-;;;

Alright, I doubt it'll be eight episodes, but it better just be four, and I hope they don't go through everything the same way all over again. -_-;;; I mean, seriously, I love this anime, but this is seriously getting repetitive...

Well... seeing that this episode was basically the same, there's nothing more to talk about besides my venting there... Well, alright, then. End of post, I guess... xDD


"Umineko no Naku Koro ni" episode 1

Yay! New show! =D

Well, first off all, let me start out by saying: I have never watched Higurashi no Naku Koro ni. Not the first season, nor the second. But, I must also add that my brother has and told me much about it. Truth is, it sounds interesting, and I want to watch it, but, sadly, being a very violent and scary show, I'd have nightmares for years (I've been scared/freaked out by parts of the show I've seen, let alone all of it; I'm a wimp).

I have seen episodes 2-4 of Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Rei, because I was interested in the plot line and it didn't have much violence.

But, either way, seeing this show can barely even be called a spin-off, I'm pretty sure any knowledge of Higurahi no Naku Koro ni is not required to be able to watch it.

My brother assured me that there wouldn't be much violence in this series, especially compared to Higurashi, so, I decided to give it a try. I love murder mystery things, anyway. =3 There's something about using what little of my brain I have to think about such things that is rather enjoyable to me.

So, lets start this episode review off! =D The best place to start? The beginning!

It's starts off with introducing all of the suspects, and oh my gosh am I lost when it comes to who's who! T^T I think I've got Beatrice, Maria, and Rosa down, but that's about it. =P

It's my Yui Horie! =D (I love Hanyuu~ ^w^)

Now, even though I was quite confused and might need to watch this episode again (and then maybe even again... and again...) to really understand all that's going on (doesn't help that I'm a slow reader -_-;;;), the show is starting out good. ^w^ Though only one episode, I like it so far. =3 It's kind of rare to be able to say that with the first episode, seeing that the first episode is the one that simply introduces everything, but as long as what they introduce seems interesting, that makes it good, right? xD

So, anyway, sense the first episode is the introduction episode, not much to really say, I guess. Beatrice has really caught our attentions, though, of course. I know I certainly want to learn more about her. Also, I want to know what happened when she gave the umbrella to Maria. I want to see that scene! ToT Oh, well, maybe they'll show it or explain it later on. =3

Hey, that guy's kinda cute-

-oh, wait, he's a pervert...

... Oh, well, he has a cute, bespectacled friend named George, anyway. (Hey, I remembered another person's name! =D That is his name, right?)

Wait, Kanon's a GUY!?

SHE IS A TOTAL JERK!! Dx

"Hatsukoi Limited" episode 12

AWESOME SHOW!

I just... don't know what to say! =3 The ending was cute, almost all of my favorite ships worked out (all but two, if you count the two Bessho ship...), and Kei and Kusuda confessed! =D They're probably my overall favorite ship (though I think I already mentioned that...). ^w^


They had to squeeze one of these scenes in, huh? xD And, of course, the other girls all have to be jealous of the girl with the biggest breasts. EVERY. TIME. I swear. xD

That's right, SCREAM to the Heavens! =D

That scene was cute, screaming out, "I LOVE (insert chick's name here)!" =3 I wonder if that actually does make you feel better... I have to remember that when I get my first real heartbreak. =P Lol, I'm so young an naive. xD

Yay. =3 (though, not really together in the end, still better than nothing...)

BOO! HISS! Dx



Yay! =D (And wow, that hairstyle works for him... O^o)


Well, it was a good show, and I'll miss it. =3 The manga was canceled, so chances for a second season are slim, I guess, but I still hope they make one! xD

"The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya" season 2 episode 3

15,948 times!! =O

Oh my gosh, what're they gonna do? =O I like Itsuki's idea of Kyon telling Haruhi he loves her. xD That may work! xD Remember when they were stuck in that separate world? He kissed her, and they went back home!


Poor Yuki... Being an alien can suck sometimes! xD I forgot how long Kyon said she had been enduring this (and I'm too lazy to figure out myself =P), but it was a loooooooong time.

I'm sorry, but I don't feel sympathy for this whiny crybaby...

Man, this show is so good! =D I know I keep saying that, but it is, and I'm so glad it's back! ^w^

"Hatsukoi Limited" episode 11

Only one more episode left! =O

I'm gonna miss this show. It's so darn good! =3 I still feel bad for Kei and Kusuda, but at least Kei got a pep talk from Beast-kun.


This show is made of pep talks! xD

But poor Kei before that scene, and even somewhat afterwards, 'cause she still thinks Kusuda hates her. Also, we got deeper into Kusuda's feelings, which make us feel even worse for him.

You have to wonder: how are they going to fix every problem in one episode? =O Well, you know what that means? EPIC EPISODE. Either that or a downer one. =P OR a second season (they better, because this show rocks!).


Man, the very thought of traveling on my bike makes me exhausted... -_-;;; Well, I have bad endurance... GETTING OFF THE POINT.

Yeah, it's pretty insane what they're doing. I wouldn't do that unless I had a bunch of money for the train, hotel rooms, food, etc. They really didn't plan it out, those morons... -_-;;;


FINALLY she realizes that Yuuji doesn't like her! Alright, now just hook up with Yoshihiko, alright? xD They BETTER. Then Ayumi with Mamoru, Kei with Kusuda, Nao with Hiroyuki, and Meguru with Takei. Lol, there, now you know all the people I ship. xP

"K-On!" episode 12

Wow... an actually... good episode. =3

Well, the last episode didn't make up for all the bad ones before it, but it was still one last good...

(Shout-out to CoalGuys: thanks for your subs!)

... Wait... Another episode!? O^o Oh, well, it looks like they'll be an extra episode. (Is it airing on TV or is it an OVA?) There may be a second season, I suspect, because they did end at a rather... bad place to end if you ask me, but who knows? (God Knows... Haha, see what I did thar?)

So, seeing this is K-On!, a show I find filled with a lot of... filler, there's not too much to mention, I guess. I mean, then ending was real cute, if you ask me. =3 AND MIO SHOULD BE THE PERMANENT LEAD SINGER! ... ahem... Sorry, but seriously, she's a much better singer than Yui. I mean, Yui's talented and all, but Mio just sounds cooler! =D

I do have to agree with the Jaalin of Random Curiosity (thank you, all of you there, for screenshots, by the way! ^w^) that this episode was kind of awkward, though I've felt that the last few episodes have been that way, but at least this had a little more substance in it than the last few, if you ask me. =3

But, anyway, this was supposed to be the finale, right? xP Well, I guess because the last one is an extra episode, I will count this as the first show where I've gotten to the finale in my blog (I know I missed the beginning, but I say it still counts! xD) So, because of that, everyone gets a free TV! =D Just kidding. =P Yeah, bad joke, but maybe I will do something special, either that or when I get through a full season, posting a review for every episode of it. =3

Well, I guess this isn't quite "goodbye" yet, girls. =3

"The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya" season 2 episode 2

Man, The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya rocks! =D

There's not much to say about this episode. This first half of "Endless Eight" was just them all doing a bunch of fun-looking things over the last bit of summer (I feel kinda jealous of them xD). =3 But even though it was only that, it was fun to watch! =D You see? The Melancholy does it right! Makes an episode with what seems like filler (seeing it's going to be important in the next part, it's not filler) very enjoyable to watch! ^w^

So, yeah, sorry, but I don't have very much to say, I guess, just that all their activities looked like fun! =D Also that and I really liked Haruhi in this one. I started off by hating Haruhi and her... anger issues (though, thankfully, she isn't always angry xD), but I've started to really like her! ^w^

Well, sense I wasn't able to say much, I'm going to find some random screenshot to put here for no reason... Or maybe two... Hmm...

Am I the only one who sees Yuki in her uniform?

Aww... Yuki wants a mask. =3

I find it adorable when Yuki acts more... human-like. xD

She is so a Chew Toy...

NO. It doesn't work that way!

As mentioned before, in courage tests, they have to split into pairs with one boy and one girl! xD But, seriously, it's more fun that way.

Well, that was more than two...

"Hatsukoi Limited" episode 10

This is why you confess!!!

Oh, man, poor Kei and Kusuda... T^T This better be fixed soon! D= They could possibly be my favorite pair (don't ask why; it might be because their ship tease is so cute). 

So, anyway...

OHGOSHNOIT'SHER!

I don't like her! =P I've only seen her in one episode and I don't like her. xD Maybe it's because she's kind of like Kei's rival. =P

KEIxKUSUDA 4EVUR

Haha, random. =P

So, going on... This episode mainly involved Kei and Kusuda stuff and Meguru and Tekai stuff. Two new characters are introduced: Sumire and Nanoka. I already mentioned that I don't like Sumire, but I also don't like Nanoka. xD Two new characters, and I hate them both. xDD

Poor Meguru sucks at swimming now. D= She makes it seem like she just started sucking for no reason, but lets see... Her first match was against Nanoka, a little thing that is slim and skinny while Meguru...


... has THOSE. Have you ever seen professional swimmers? Their bodies are like... well, slim. Another thing is since she's not in the swimming team anymore, she's out of practice, so it's not much of a surprise that she isn't as fast anymore!


Well, at least her depression earned a pep talk from Tekai that triggered a Meguru flag. xD (Remember, "if you want to see all your choices in the end, save often!")

"Go... gomen..."

POOR KEI AND KUSUDA! TT^TT

((By the way, sorry for being so slow; I've had a busy week. Next Hayate review will probably be a double episode review!))
