One more new anime
Oct. 8th, 2012 07:37 pmBrrr...Chilly weather makes me want to stay in bed....
Ixion Saga DT 1! Parody of an RPG anime trying really hard to be funny
+/- Mediocre production
- Terrible humor
Quick impression~ A young boy is transported into an RPG game, but things aren't how he would like. The princess is a child, the hot maid is a boy, ummm...etc? The problem with this is that it pokes fun at fantasy/game tropes, but is ineffective at the joke delivery.
Hunter x Hunter 2012 50! Gon and Killua escape from the Phantom Troupe. Cute. Noticed the emphasis on Killua's flashback to his brother.
Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun 2! The opening song reminds me of the Lovely Complex opening; cheerful, overly-cute jpop. Unlike the last shoujo anime I fully viewed, Kimi ni Todoke, this one contains characters that are decisive. The new character is quirky (and hey, does not create a love triangle). I like the fact that Haru's tutoring skills suck, and Shizuku's advice is simply to learn the least amount of information to get out of remedial classes. It's nice to see star pupils with flaws.
