EPTStuff like this just makes me love it even more. I love scrolling over tags on anidb.net and reading the descriptions.

While I was a little peeved with the way the season started (okay, and ended... and it's only 12 episodes), I grew to really like her. Even if Yin is still infinitely better. | ||

On a totally different note, does anyone else follow works based on favorite seiyuu? I found myself liking a few of them and investigated series that they also starred in. For instance I checked out Asura Cryin' because Nonaka Ai starred in it. ...though if that "reasoning" applies I should really see Clannad After Story. | ||

For instance I checked out Asura Cryin' because Nonaka Ai starred in it. ...though if that "reasoning" applies I should really see Clannad After Story. If it has Kawasumi Ayako, Noto Mamiko or Sakamoto Maaya, I probably have at least watched one episode. The abomination known as Queen's Blade might be the sole exception. Some newer seiyuus are also pretty nice, but I have yet to start following any of them. | ||

I find those shows to be much better than those ever so popular harem, school life anime. Those are on a different level from most school life and harem anime. Those anime are popular because they're fun, easily digestible and very immediately entertaining. You don't hear anybody calling them real great series, though. | ||

Grouped in categories: Highly Recommended Kimi ni Todoke - Starts out a little slow, then it turns into THE best anime of the season. (Okay, a little biased here, but it's definitely recommended). Darker than Black - Like #1? You'll like #2. Seitokai no Ichizon - I hold that this anime could have been better, but it's definitely recommended anyway. Railgun - Obviously recommended. Recommended Letter Bee - Another consistently good anime. I would recommend it from this season. Maybe recommended Inuyasha - Watch if you liked the original. It doesn't leave you hanging (I hope). Asura Cryin' 2 - Not much of an improvement on the first, but might be worth checking out if you watched the first one. Blue Literature - A little inconsistent from episode to episode, and I'm betting that they cut down on the source material a lot, but worth checking out. Ecchi/Fanservice/Harem Nyan Koi - If you're into Harem, do check this one out. It is rather cliche, but it's consistent. Kampfer - Fanservice. Skip otherwise. Heaven's Lost Property - For the ecchi fanservice guys... Skip 11eyes - Below average. Kobato - Very, very slow. It's slower than Air for God's sake. Read the manga instead. Pending judgment Armed Librarians - I originally would not have recommended this, but it's suddenly gotten decent. I'd say wait until the entire series finishes before checking this one out. Wrong. Clannad After Story. And if you think either of THOSE are bad, try Grave of the Fireflies. Most heart wrenching thing I've ever seen. Such a beautiful yet tragic movie. <3 | ||

it's like they said "how can we trick people into thinking this isn't a generic harem with a stupid gimmick?" "oh lets put in a FELINE CURSE that turns the lead into a cat, but get this he's also allergic to cats" "brilliant" | ||

Even if Yin is still infinitely better. + Show Spoiler + it's because they wanted a repeat of S1 again with a story about Hei and his backup dancers. That, and Suou was a bit generic for some - I REALLY wish they spent more time on character and plot-development; the length of the season made it just tragically muddled... even another 1-2 episodes would have been enough time to flesh certain things out, but... At any rate, it was an enjoyable watch, though I smell a money-making scheme in the OVAs. | ||
