"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 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...

"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
