Anime’s that i am looking forward to!

There are many good anime’s that are announced this year and i am excited to watch them, here are some of the anime that i am looking forward to.

1. FLCL Season 2

The first season aired way back in 2000-2001 and i was actually not expecting a new season. I liked the unique characters in the show. There was not much explanation about the story, but after going through some fansites i kinda understood it. This anime is actually rated quite high on other sites. But the anime is not coming out until the end of 2017(7 more months!!!!).

 2. Himouto! Umaru-chan 2nd Season

This is one of my favorite slice of life anime. Those who don’t know about it, the story     is some thing like this “People are not always who they appear to be, as is the case with Umaru Doma, the perfect high school girl—that is, until she gets home! Once the front door closes, the real fun begins. When she dons her hamster hoodie, she transforms from a refined, over-achieving student into a lazy, junk food-eating otaku, leaving all the housework to her responsible older brother Taihei. Whether she’s hanging out with her friends Nana Ebina and Kirie Motoba, or competing with her self-proclaimed “rival” Sylphinford Tachibana, Umaru knows how to kick back and have some fun!”( i just copy pasted the plot). This anime is funny and cute. I have no idea how does she gets small……

 

3. Inuyashiki

i found the synopsis for this anime quite interesting and there is a manga for this. It is fairly popular, i always wanted to read the manga but i never quite got the chance for doing so. Now i am thinking about watching it.

The teaser for the anime.

synopsis: Inuyashiki Ichirou is down on his luck. While only 58 years old, his geriatric looks often have him written off as a pathetic old man by the world around him and he’s constantly ignored and disrespected by his family despite all that he’s done to support them. On top of everything else, his doctor has revealed that he has cancer and it appears that he has little time left in this world. But just when it seems things couldn’t get any worse, a blinding light in the night sky strikes the earth where Ichirou stands. He later wakes up to find himself unscathed, but he soon starts to notice that there’s something… different about himself. However, it turns out that these strange, new changes are just what Ichirou needs to take a new lease on life and now it seems like there’s nothing to stop him from being a hero worthy of the respect that he never had before… unless, that is, there was someone else out there with these same changes…

4.Made in Abyss

I liked the animation quality in the PV and the story seems interesting. It has a web       manga as its source material, you guys can check it out.

 

5.Citrus

SO this is a yuri romance anime, which i am interested in because citrus was my very   first yuri manga. It is not all ecchi and stuff, it is more on the romance side. The               anime is announced but there is no fixed date…..

These are my five anime that i am looking forward to. Which one are you looking forward to? Comment about it.

“Monster” review(short)

“Monster” is one of the most brilliant anime that i have watched, it has an interesting story with very well developed characters and the atmosphere of the anime. I am trying to keep this review SPOILER FREE.

Plot:

Monster is a psychological thriller anime through and through. The story is set in Germany after the cold war. The main protagonist is an Japanese neurosurgeon(Dr.Tenma) who is extremely talented and a prodigy. His life is going smoothly until the point where he has to make the decision of saving a 10 year old boy or a mayor. He saves the boy and loses his post as he did not save the mayor(hospital politics). After 10 years have passed on a series of murders come to light and the suspect is the boy that Tenma saved……

Review:

Monster has a very slow start(there is a reason it has 74 episodes), it is like a puzzle which when completed gives an outstanding result. There are many characters in this series which at first look’s as if they are not involved with plot at all, but as the story progresses you would realize each characters importance to the main plot.

The atmosphere the anime is set in is quite dark and gloomy which actually is important as the plot it self is quite dark. The most important part of Monster is it’s storytelling, the way the events are mentioned is quite astonishing. The characters in the anime are well developed.

It is the type of anime that i would not recommend binging. It took me almost 10 days to complete the anime( i can watch at least 20 episode a day). I admired the show and actually researched on some point from the anime.

Verdict:

This anime is one of the best and very few match up with it, so it is a must watch.

I wrote this review just after watching the last episode of monster so it is short and misses a lot of points, i will write a longer review for this anime.

 

 

Grand Blue (The best Comedy Manga)

A new life begins for Kitahara Iori as he begins his college career near the ocean in Izu city, full of excitement for his new life. He will be moving into his Uncle’s diving store “Grand Blue.” There he finds the beautiful ocean, beautiful women, and men that love diving and alcohol. Will Iori be able to live his dream college life?

This is the kind of manga that will make you actually laugh out loud. There is no exact plot to this manga, it is about the daily crazy life of Iori (mc) and his friends.

The art style is epic, it will make you roll on the floor laughing.

This manga is a must read…… and it is my favorite manga. It is number one on my top 10 list.

Quan Zhi Gao Shou( The kings Avatar) Episode 1 review

Plot:

In the multiplayer online game Glory, Ye Xiu is regarded as a textbook and a top-tier pro-player. However, due to a myriad of reasons, he is kicked from the team. After leaving the pro scene, he finds work in an Internet Cafe as a manager. When Glory launches its tenth server, he throws himself in to the game once more. Possessing ten years of experience, the memories of his past, and an incomplete, self-made weapon, his return along the road to the summit begins!

Look at the animation!

There are not that many anime that i know which are related to E-sports(probably none) and i was quite intrested in this anime as i had been reading the manga for a while and hoped for it to be turned into an anime.

Animation: 10/10

The animation quality is beautiful(the above pic is from the anime).

The first episode made quite the impact and made me hate some of the characters, well the villans were introduced pretty early in this one. I also feel that the world of E-sport like other sports is not an easy one( people thing just because sitting on chair and playing game seems easy, the E-sport world is not that easy)

I recommend it to people who want to watch different anime and to people who are interested in E-sports.

Overall: 9/10

Well i liked the manga and the anime is great. Thats all for the review…….

Attack On Titans Episode 27 Review

Episode 27 Of AOT ” I am Home” was aired and it was great.

The episode was more focused on Sasha, and i liked her backstory. We actually did not know much about her, but we now get to know about her family and other stuff.

Our usual Titan action was not much involved in the episode, but the thrilling fight between this( pic below) Titan and Sasha made up for it.

The above scene was disturbing and violent and what more the child was looking at her mother getting eaten up by a titan….damn AOT….

This scene was also intense….

The ending of the episode had Conny return back to his village only to find it destroyed..and we will have to wait a week ( or read the manga).

Rating: 8.5/10

The verdict:

It was worth waiting for 3 years and in the season 2 the plot starts to thicken and i like it.

Top new anime you should check out!

This week had some great new anime released and they are also my personal favorite.

1.The Royal Tutor

Heine Wittgenstein, a man often mistaken for a small child, has been summoned to the royal palace of Granzreich by the king to act as the royal tutor to the four younger princes—Kai, Bruno, Leonhard, and Licht–into capable candidates to the throne. However, he finds his task difficult because of the complicated personalities of his charges, who had managed to cause every tutor they had to quit.

Now i personally found this more interesting than Boruto, because it had the same kind of a feel like Ouran High school hostclub(just the character and not the personality).

2.Renai Bokun(The Very Lovely Tyrant of Love)

A Kiss Note is a powerful notebook that makes anyone who has their name written together will instantly fall in love if they kiss each other regardless of any circumstances. This magical and very familiar item belongs to an angel named Guri whose job as cupid is to create couples. However, she accidentally writes down Aino Seiji, a regular high school student, and unless he kisses someone, Guri will die. She convinces Seiji to go kiss his crush, Hiyama Akane, the school’s popular girl who turns out has even stronger feelings for him, bordering on obsessive and psychotic. Eventually Akane and Seiji come together but not before Guri decides that she likes Seiji as well. What seems awesome to most guys becomes hell for Seiji who just wants a normal relationship with girls.

Well this is hilarious………………

3. Boruto: Naruto next generations

Well, it is the sequel to one of the most popular anime, so it is to be expected.

4.Berserk (2017)

I have myself not seen Berserk(it is on my to watch list) but the hype regarding Berserk is too high so i could not ignore it.

 

That were some top new anime released this week, please check them out.

 

Boruto: Naruto Next Generations Episode 1 review

The Story of Boruto, the son of Naruto has officially begin. I watched the 1st episode just now and to be honest i liked it(more than i thought), it screams modern as the whole Naruto universe has begun to modernize.

 

 

Art-style:

So lets talk about the art style now, many fans were kinda pissed when they saw the changes in art style. But what i feel is that the Art style looks pretty modern and kinda unique like next generation art style.

Today’s episode:

The new episode started with Kawaki and Boruto fighting and konoha is destroyed, well this happens sometime in the future though. The first episode starts with Boruto jumping on building with Shikamaru’s son( i forgot his name) and it kinda brings back memories.Well Boruto seems to be sad as his dad is always busy with work and has no time to comeback home and stuff.

I actually like how Boruto is thinking, like he is a different person then his father, he was raised up differently then his father so the whole world should not expect him to be the same as Naruto(fans also should understand this) and he also as his own goals. The new episode had some mysterious in it too, like Boruto’s left eye and the snake like creature that possesses the rich kid, there are many theories about that out there on the web. But i want to wait for a week to find out about it….

This is was my impression about the new episode.

 

Welcome to the NHK! Full Impression and review.

So you thought that a life of a Neet or  hikikomori is trouble free and nice, well you will have a huge change of opinions after watching this anime!

Trailer:

(This trailer contains a tiny bit of spoilers)

 

The story and character in brief:

The anime starts of with  Tatsuhiro Satou (MC) sitting in his room in a dreamy state and believing  that his hikikomori state is because of a big conspiracy. He has been a NEET for 4 years now after he just stopped going to college because he thought that the his classmates were laughing at him and were making fun of him(they were actually not,it is just in his head).

 

Story (10/10)

This anime is unique,complex and bitter truth about the real world. The story is a bit slow paced and because being slow it actually explains the plot beautifully. The story is deep and really makes you question are you actually satisfied with your life? The anime touches sensitive areas like depression, emotional roller-coasters, suicidal thoughts etc. Not many anime have touched those areas so deeply. The start is pretty funny, but once you the story progresses it gets more mature and everything starts making sense. Now for the romantic factor, this anime has no lovey dovey romance like you would find in other anime, but has a  more of a realistic approach. This anime shows the reality of the world we are living in and to be honest it is not that good. My point is that the story is awesome and satisfying.

Soundtrack and music (9/10)

The music used in the anime is real good starting from the Opening and ending to all other soundtracks used during the dramatic scenes and such. Great song choice. The music is fitting to the events in the anime.

Character (10/10)

The Character development in the anime is on point. Each character has a purpose. Every character grows, fails, learns, and maximizes their potential as a solid character. There is no such thing as a “weak character” in this anime. It’s actually unbelievable how well written, well developed and well exposed every character is and how that justifies their existence. Not a single character feels extraneous or even annoying.

Art (10/10)

The artwork itself is not the best but it is the most fitting for an anime which has so many emotions and feels to it. Well the anime was aired in 2006( probably made in 2005) which is almost 11 years back.

Overall (10/10)

You just have to watch this anime it is brilliant, well you can take your time and i do not recommend binge watching it. That depends on the viewer, but it is a must watch anime and should be watched by anime fans and non anime fans too. I personally feel it is on the same level as Toradora, Lovely Complex, Kimi ni Todoke etc. but it is too underrated.

 

 

 

Attack on Titans 2 first episode review

Attack on Titans is back and back with a bang!!

The first episode starts with the continuation of the events that happened at the end of the last season and they also discovered the titan inside the wall.

Second thing wall rose has fallen (oh this was a spoiler…well everyone has already read the manga anyways)

Lol

Also we saw the abnormal titan or the gorilla titan in this episode and a very serious death (tooo violent).

The op track and end track are awesome too…well that was expected.

In any case i have completely forgotten what happened in the manga so i am going to wait for the next episode ie. Ep 27….

Well thats all for today….

The Garden of Words impression(short)

The garden of words is a Japanese animation movie released in 2013

(Spoilers ahead)

My rating: 8/10
Art style:10/10

My impression:
Takao is a 15 year old boy who aspires to be a shoemaker. Now Here a shoe is a shown not only as a shoe but also as a way to support people. In the movie the shoe plays the part of a connecting bridge between the two(a small part ). The shoe shows that Takao wants to support people but he also wants to achieve his dreams/goals.
I personally feel the story is kinda deep or its just me.
The garden and the rain also plays an important part as the garden acts as a meeting place for them and the rain is the only time when Takao would skip school and go to the garden.
Yukino is a teacher at Takao’s school and Takao does not know her. Yukino realises that he is a student from her school but remains silent about it(if my teacher was this forgiving :-X ).
So now.. i actually did not understand what exactly was wrong with Yukino-sensei… well she was being bullied…that part i understood….but what was the taste disorder thing and practing walking in the garden thing?
I felt that the story unfolded a bit fast…..but the emotions reached me…..

The climax:

I liked it how it ended and they shared thier feelings and parted ways…..it was straight forward……
Well that was my impression…. it was not much there are many other things in this movie which have a deeper meaning…..like tons of them.

Thanks for reading :-).
