Rurouni Kenshin live-action movie! wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Kenshin had a mildly believable personality and the sword-fighting was kinda cool. The story revolves around some bad guys who wants to buy up Kaoru's dojo/land. A local drug dealer is also making waves while his chemist, Megumi, wants to escape. Kenshin stumbles into the trouble, and gets help from Sano and Saito....fun times. I wish the comedic moments were pushed further so that they got an actual laugh, but it was an enjoyable film. There was enough action to keep me interested. ~8/10 rating~

Minami-ke Tadaima 1! the return of the Minami sisters. There's nothing really interesting to write about the anime. The new season has the same format as the previous ones; short vignettes of their life. Still cute.

Chihayafuru S2 1! it's a new school year and the karuta club needs new members. The episode focuses on Sumire, a girl who joins the club to hook up with Taichi.

Why did I watch that list....

Sasami-san@Ganbaranai 1! grainy pastels!

+ Unusual set-up
+ Great production
- Incestual nonsense

Quick impressions~ A young introvert with an overinduldent brother (who remains faceless) stalks her brother via computer while he goes to work as a teacher. He spends the day talking about her. There are three sisters at the school with contracting personalities. The first episode revolves around Valentine's Day chocolate. The word puns and visual candy were a waste of Shaft's talent. There's only so much randomness or absurdity you can stuff into an episode before it just becomes pointless to watch. Dropped

Amnesia 1! Pretty boyz

+ Eye-candy
- Uninteresting story
- Incredibly weak main character

Quick impressions~ This is an reverse harem RPG in which a young girl with amnesia tries to find herself by interactions with the people around her. For some reason she can't tell them that she has amnesia because of a fairy living in her soul. She works at a maid/butler-type cafe, so the boys wear cosplay-like outfits. The female character is too timid to be likable; fainting twice in one episode is lame. Dropped.

Vividred Operation 1! introducing the characters' butts before you see their faces...

- a show for the male otaku audience
+ great production

Quick impressions~ An idyllic, high-tech world in which two girls live with their genius grandfather. One day, a large robot called 'Alone' attacks their energy source. The grandfather creates something that his granddaughter can use to fight, but he also randomly gets his mind stuck in a stuffed animal. Another prepubescent female power ranger-type story...with plenty of panty shots to please the fans. Dropped.

Tamako Market 1! from the same production team as K'On, we have a story about mochi or a story about an bnoxious bird?

+ Absurdly cute
- Maybe too absurd.

Quick impression~ A young girl find a talking bird at the flower shop. The arrogant bird has some sort of mission to find a bride for his prince? The girl's father runs a mochi shop. The boy next door has a crush on the girl. Etc. Well-made and cute, but a little too random for me. Dropped.

Ok, that was not terrible list...

Hakkenden 1! More pretty boyz

- Awful opening theme song
+ Eye-candy angst
+ So-so production

Quick impressions~ A young boy with demonic powers lives with religious-type people (set-up sorta like Ao no Exorcist). Shino who naturally has a bratty personality is the target of some bad guys. All sorts of other mysterious characters pop in to say mysterious things. The first episode was quickly paced and actually cute at times. It's a shame the preview to the second episode queued a lower quality in production.

Senyu. short and funny.

+ 4:30 minute anime...in which a minute is the ending credits
+ actually funny

Quick impressions A king sends a bunch of probable heroes out to fight the demons. Hero #45 and his soldier side-kick fight some weird-looking monsters. The self-referential RPG humor is actually funny, and because the anime is so short, it doesn't get tiresome.
