>>>>Completed "Acchi Kocchi" and found it "okay."
>>>>Since i am going towards a Slice of Life + Comedy for the past couple animes, I will start watching "Working!!" and it's second season "Working'!!"
>>>>I have also started gathering information of the lengths of commercials and number of commercial breaks in the three main places i watch anime "Hulu", "Crunchyroll", and the newcomer "Daisuki." I just would like to see any changes that occur over the time I watch anime and any percentage increases or decreases of the number of ads depending upon the anime. I wish I started this back when I began watching anime. I would have a larger pool of information at my fingertips to show the true statistics and change over time. :3
>>>>It had above average levels of cuteness and the animation was fine along with the openings and breaks that were entertaining. The comedy was lacking in my opinion only getting a chuckle from me and the romance is almost non-existent. I actually thought in the first episode the "couple to be" was already together, but found out later they weren't even dating yet, just lots of encounters and them being "best buddies" in school. There was no attempt to pair the "couple to be" or try to swing any romance between them and it is non-existent for the entire show until the third to last episode. The two main characters (Io Otonashi and Tsumiki Miniwa) seem too relaxed in their voices and nothing fazed them to even attempt to sound even a little emotional. The whole show is very strongly Slice of Life and nearly nothing else, but the side characters come in to bring the emotion, drama, and action to swing the calmness and ride it off into the sunset.

Anime44 has two adverts, each 30 seconds in general. However though, I use apps on ipad to watch them. HD and no loading/ads required. The only problem is that they are in Mandarin because I'm too lazy to watch it on my com :u
Derp so thats why some anime pages are effed up

So just finished Pandora hearts. It was amazing. Like 10/10 for the story. Artwork was ok and music was awesome.
I 100% recommend this anime it's amazing.
Hopefully there's a second season cause I know it doesn't just end like that

Finished both seasons of "Working!!" aka "Waganaria!!".
>>>>Even though i don't like Slice of Life's most of the time this anime was just perfect in the execution and unique experience. "Working!!" is a Comedy/Slice of Life and pulls off the comedy splendidly which caused me to laugh harder in a comedy than I have since my first animes(Baka to Test/Zero no Tsukaima/Seto no Hanayome). Some episodes even go further with great romance when presented even though this isn't even a Romance anime. The characters all had unique characteristics and were the most "human feeling" where some episodes they could annoy me while other episodes leave me emotionally attached. Every character is given their time in the spotlight and not one of them ever feels like they stood in the background. Every experience with the characters shows off their unique personalities and takes looks into each of their lives (except Soma [Who are you Soma!!]) A truly great Slice of Life that stands above the rest and i highly recommend this anime.
>>>>Last note: The Openings and Endings of "Working!!" are very catchy. I will probably add one of the songs to my ipod :3
Finished "Oreimo 2 OVA episodes 14, 15, 16"
>>>>Anything i say about how i feel about these last episodes for the Oreimo series as a whole will spoil. What i can say is the ending is... disappointing... The last episode left me speechless and i had to re-watch a section of the anime to make sure i didn't read the translation wrong.
>>>>These episodes are currently on "Crunchyroll" until August 31st.

(Spoiler Alert)
The last episode painted Kirino's love as just a game to her when Manami confronted her about it. Kirino just kept gloating and rubbing it in Manami's face stating "I won. I won." I was ready to accept their love and the troubles they would go through to attain it, but it left me speechless they could just abandon the love they were planning to fight tooth and nail for. :/
Personally my favorite couple would be "Manami x Kyousuke"

Anime Updates:
>>>>Going to finish watching "Shuffle! Memories" which is just a recap of the great harem anime "Shuffle!" ("Shuffle! Memories" has been on my "Watching" list for a while now and i want to finish it.)
>>>>"Shuffle!" is a great show that contains lots of drama and shows the flaws that are in a harem relationship. It starts off slow, but once the ball gets rolling the drama will leave you on the edge of your seat.
My favorite would probably be Ayase x Krousuke meh.

>>>>That is a surprise for me too i thought i wrote my thoughts about it down somewhere.
>>>>The two seasons are a bit different from each other, but each have good points that bring good enjoyment for every episode. The first season has a better plot and action sequences while still implementing comedy where it can fit in-between the plot. The second season has less action and forward moving plot, but ramps up the comedy to take the spotlight while still having the plot back-up dancing. Overall the series is very nice and provokes some thoughts about how just simple words can hurt the people around us even if we don't mean what we say and treasuring the life we are given whether we live to be 100 or 32.
>>>>Hope you enjoy it. :D
My thoughts exactly, it was bound to be awkward because its a american anime trying to be themed in a Japanese way. I think its slowly finding its pace and style though.
Completed:
"Shuffle! Memories"
"Mondaiji" currently on Crunchyroll
"Majikoi - Oh! My Samurai Girls!" currently on Crunchyroll and Hulu
>>>>"Shuffle! Memories" is just a recap of the anime "Shuffle!", but with every character arc strung out individually. "Shuffle!" is a great drama that meshes the multiple stories of the girls into a fine mesh that helps compliment each girl and provide a never-ending drama bombardment. "Shuffle! Memories", though still good, cuts up that mesh and placed each separate drama in its own pile so you could see each girl's story and drama individually, but it felt very choppy because it attempted to break up a seasoned steak into individual seasonings and ingredients.
>>>>Mondaiji is a great 10 episode anime that created a fine range of characters that made me like or respect them. The villains were created splendidly where some were only present for a couple episodes, but left a memorable impression that really made me grow to hate them (in a good way). I wish that it delved more into the world that the children were brought into, but was very much enjoyable from the action sequences to the characters, and for just 10 episodes, it left me with a smile on my face begging for more. The opening and ending songs both deserve credit for the toe-tapping, head-bobbing fun that it creates when i just listen to or watch them. (videos below) I truly wish they would make another season for this.
>>>> "Majikoi", another anime i have to add onto my small "Hate" list. The anime itself looked promising from the first episode presenting awesome battle sequences that required strategy, power, cunning, and out thinking the opponent to win the battle. If the show remained focused on the school for samurais and battles that they advertise in the first episode I would have loved the anime, but instead they chose to focus on the women. The women were sexualized to no end and came off more as annoying trying to prove their "love" for the main protagonist. More than half of the anime could be considered "porn" with ass, tits, and sexual innuendo's being flown around like fireworks on the Fourth of July. They even had to censor the show(with annoying flashy pictures) to block out the stupid amount of "fanservice" that was shown (Thank God). The last 4 episodes tries to bring back the martial arts and battles that it promised in episode 1, but can't be taken seriously by how much the villains reasons for battle are skewed, many characters forgotten or brought in randomly, and the main women in the harem over-sexualized to no end.
Going to watch "Black Rock Shooter" [Action Drama ScienceFiction] (8 episodes) next. Hopefully this will be a good anime that will scrub my brain of the stank of "Majikoi."
