Kimi to Boku 2 Ep. 13 Review (aka Yuuta/Shun Feels)

Shun, darling, it'll be okay...

This is the last episode. I really can't believe this is the last episode. This series just...it shouldn't end, okay? It should just continue on through the rest of their lives.

This episode gave me a lot of Yuuta/Shun feels and pretty Shun to look at, so, yeah, I'm happy!

Tsuritama Ep. 12 (Not a Review, Just a Lot of Fangirling)

I have no words for how much I love this series! I love it so much, and I love the fandom so much, and I don't want to talk about any spoilers, so I'm just going to rant for a second. This last episode was brilliant. It was Tsuritama in a nutshell--fishing, aliens, craziness, feels, and plenty of "what the heck are they DOING?" moments. I've only watched it raw so far, but hopefully I'll see a subbed version soon enough! It was actually really easy to understand what was going on, even though I am by no means good at Japanese yet. Right now, I think I just want to read some fanfiction or something, and cross my fingers that there will be merchandise released soon because I NEED IT LIKE AIR. ~Hana

Sorry!

Just wanted to apologize for the lack of updates on...well...everything. I've been out of town, and I'll be able to catch up on things when I get back tomorrow or the next day.

Thoughts on La Corda d'Oro

I tend to think of this show as UtaPri's serious, angsty older cousin.

It's definitely less vibrant than UtaPri, and isn't quite as much fun either. I think part of the problem might be that it takes itself too seriously. We hardly ever get to see the cast just hanging out and having a good time.

The other part of the problem?

It feels like you're playing through everyone's path simultaneously.

Kimi to Boku 2 Ep. 12 Review

Nearing the end...

Okay, so in all honesty, I don't think this was the best episode. I think this show shines the most when all five boys are interacting, and this episode had so little of that, I was disappointed.

Kimi to Boku 2 Ep. 11 (aka Cute, Cute, and More Cute)

Best volleyball game ever.

So, I still can't figure out if I've got a favorite character in this show because I love them all, but I think Chizuru is probably pretty close. His personality is just so refreshing. This is completely unrelated, why am I even saying this.

This episode is a more light-hearted one, with the school sports competitions.

Tsuritama Ep. 10 Review

And this is the only show for me.

Had to watch this twice before I could calm down and type a somewhat coherent review of what happened this episode because sjafkdjlajfkldsa YOU GUYS IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL AND SAD AND I LOVE EVERYONE IN THIS SHOW SO MUCH RIGHT NOW.

This may continue to include a lot of capslock and keysmashing because it's really hard not to.

Kuroko no Basuke Ep. 9-10 Review

What do you mean, this is a show about basketball? It's obviously way too cute for that!

I look forward to the little endcaps at the end of every episode because they're always so cute and completely irrelevant (and I swear the writers are trying to ship, like, everyone).

So...I honestly didn't mean to procrastinate on episode 9 so much, but then I realized 10 had come out and figured the smart thing to do was review these two episodes together. And attempt to stay somewhat on schedule next time.

Oops...

I know I'm behind on reviews for Kuroko no Basuke...I swear I'll watch it soon! ...Just let me watch Legend of Korra first! ^_^;;

Sakamichi no Apollon Ep. 9 Review (aka The Love Pentagon Ends)

New endings...and new beginnings

Okay, Sakamichi, you've won me over again with this episode. Thank you so much for ending the bizarre love pentagon and finally settling on some pairings in such a beautiful way.

(Also, I watched this directly after Batman Beyond, which was a bit of genre whiplash, but it was still great!)

Tsuritama Ep. 9 Review (aka Hairdryers, Tears, and Friendship)

So many feelings.

I love this show. I love this show so much.

It's ridiculous and brilliant and sad and quirky and amazing and I love it.

This episode reflects all of that so perfectly.

Kimi to Boku Ep. 10 Review (aka Magical Flowers and Chizuru Love)

Biscuits, anyone?

Ohhh my gosh, this show. This episode. It's really hard to explain why I love Kimi to Boku so much. It's something about the simplicity of it, and the nostalgic air, and how it's soft and sweet but not necessarily perfect.

This particular episode focuses mainly on Chizuru (who seems to be the star of this season). I can't even begin to tell you how much appreciation I've gained for his character since the show started.

Hiiro no Kakera Ep. 10 Review (aka Obligatory Bath Scenes and Mahiro Love)

I'm sexy and I know it~!

Prepare for a lot of Mahiro spam, because that's pretty much what this episode was. And I'm not complaining, because I prefer looking at him to watching the inane, shapeless plot and ultra-angst that's been running this show.

Quick Note

Hey, just wanted to say there won't be any new reviews up until Sunday afternoon, possibly later. Sorry!

Sakamichi no Apollon Ep. 8 Review

I love these three!

So, most of this episode was spent on romance and Jun's backstory, but that's okay. I don't mind too much.
