Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun – 05

October 30, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, reviews, Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun
Comments (9)

I’m finding this series strangely difficult to talk about considering how much I’m enjoying it. I really, really like Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun.  But somehow, as a blogger it’s almost too spot-on – the show has rarely put a foot wrong so far, and Brains Base is doing their usual bang-up […] Read more

Bakuman 3 – 04

October 30, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, bakuman, reviews
Comments (4)

It’s a good sign that Bakuman can come up with one of its best episodes ever without using its flashiest character. I love Eiji, but there’s no doubt that he’s a bit of a crutch for Bakuman sometimes.  It’s almost impossible to write a scene with Eiji where he isn’t […] Read more

Little Busters! – 04

October 29, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, Little Busters, reviews
Comments (33)

When I said Maeda Jun series always have at least one moemoe character “or two” – I didn’t think I’d be proven right quite so quickly. Liking a series and having no real idea how to explain why isn’t an easy position for a blogger to be in.  If I’m […] Read more

Hunter X Hunter 2011 – 53

October 28, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, Hunter x Hunter, reviews
Comments (31)

I can honestly say that almost none of that went as I expected. Before I launch into my usual weekly praise for H x H – I’ll warn you, it’s coming – I want to single out Sawashiro Miyuki for some praise here.  Not because I don’t still have issues […] Read more

Uchuu Kyoudai – 30

October 28, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, reviews, Uchuu Kyoudai
Comments (2)

Having scene the Space Brothers live-action film I sort of knew what to expect this week, but the anime version definitely exceeded the film – and my expectations. In some ways, this is the moment Uchuu Kyoudai has been building up to for 30 episodes.  It sounds funny to say […] Read more

Sukitte Ii na yo – 04

October 28, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, reviews, Sukitte Iia na yo
Comments (18)

In high school, sex is one of the most widely traded forms of currency.  It’s rare to see an anime portray that reality as plainly and openly as Sukitte does. I like how honest Sukitte Ii na yo is in presenting the sometimes ugly reality of teenaged social life without […] Read more

Shin Sekai Yori – 05

October 27, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, reviews, Shin Sekai Yori
Comments (33)

If I had to write a one-word of that episode, for me it would be pretty easy: “Intense”. The first thing you may have noticed about this episode was the rather significant visual shift that took place.  This was due to the presence of episode director Yamauchi Shigeasu, a very […] Read more

Weekly Digest: 10/27/12 – Zetsuen no Tempest, Btooom!

October 27, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, Btooom, Digests, reviews, Zetsuen no Tempest
Comments (36)

These two series present a marked contrast – one lyrical and almost graceful, and the other a display of narrative brute force. Zetsuen no Tempest – 04 This was certainly a change of pace episode for Zetsuen, a look back at the meeting of Yoshino and Mahiro.  It comes at […] Read more

Chuunibyou – 04

October 26, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, Chuunibyou, reviews
Comments (7)

Love it or hate it (or both), there’s no one else who does this sort of thing like KyoAni can do it. I’m of the classic “two minds” dilemma with Chuunibyou.  There are times when it really makes me laugh, and there are times when I just want to slip […] Read more

Psycho-Pass – 03

October 26, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, Psycho-Pass, reviews
Comments (11)

I was pretty worried after the first episode, but talent seems to be winning the day with Psycho-Pass. I’m not sure Urobuchi Gen is capable of writing a series that’s less than interesting, but as the disjointed first episode showed, it takes more than interesting ideas to make an anime […] Read more
