Yep this is how i’m going to bring over all the anime and manga i’ve watched and posted about on the old blog. It’s not so detailed but it will have to do. Anything new I watch or read from this point on will have their own posts.
Ikoku Meiro no Croisée The Animation:
Genres: slice of life, historical, seinen
Synopsis: The story takes place in the second half of the 19th century, as Japanese culture gains popularity in the West. A young Japanese girl, Yune, accompanies a French traveler, Oscar, on his journey back to France, and offers to help at the family’s ironwork shop in Paris. Oscar’s nephew and shop-owner Claude reluctantly accepts to take care of Yune, and we learn how those two, who have so little in common, get to understand each other and live together in the Paris of the 1800s.
Finished airing in 2011 with a total of 12 episodes.
My Thoughts: A slice of life story with an adorable lead set in a rather unique setting, for anime that is. Honestly its been a very, very long time since I watched this so I can’t recall much about this one but I gave it a rather high rating so I mean it can’t be all that bad… right? Something soothing and something light are the thoughts I have when trying to recall this anime.
Inari, Konkon, Koi Iroha.:
Genres: comedy, romance, school, seinen, supernatural
Synopsis: Frazzle-haired middle schooler Inari Fushimi is less than average; she’s painfully shy and horribly clumsy, but despite all this, she is undeniably kind. Running about the winding streets of her hometown, she takes a shortcut through the local shrine and stumbles upon a small fox pup in a river. After rescuing him, she continues on, but from this moment on, her life takes a drastic turn.
Grateful for rescuing the pup, the shrine goddess Uka-no-Mitama-no-Kami, “Uka-sama,” grants Inari a fragment of her power. Now, Inari has the ability to transform into anyone by shouting the magical phrase “Inari, konkon.” Could this power also grant her the courage to convey her feelings to her crush, Kouji Tanbabashi? With her new heavenly ability and the fox spirit Kon, Inari forms a sincere friendship with Uka-sama, encounters more of the supernatural world, and learns that true love knows no bounds.

My Thoughts: cute, bite sized feel good anime right here! If that’s what you’re looking for, this is one of the many anime for you! Also has an OVA!
Genres: comedy, supernatural. romance, shounen
Synopsis: Ririchiyo Shirakiin is the sheltered daughter of a renowned family. With her petite build and wealthy status, Ririchiyo has been a protected and dependent girl her entire life, but now she has decided to change all that. However, there is just one problem—the young girl has a sharp tongue she can’t control, and terrible communication skills.
With some help from a childhood friend, Ririchiyo takes up residence in Maison de Ayakashi, a secluded high-security apartment complex that, as the unsociable 15-year-old soon discovers, is home to a host of bizarre individuals. Furthermore, their quirky personalities are not the strangest things about them: each inhabitant of the Maison de Ayakashi, including Ririchiyo, is actually half-human, half-youkai.
But Ririchiyo’s troubles have only just begun. As a requirement of staying in her new home, she must be accompanied by a Secret Service agent. Ririchiyo’s new partner, Soushi Miketsukami, is handsome, quiet… but ridiculously clingy and creepily submissive. With Soushi, her new supernatural neighbors, and the beginning of high school, Ririchiyo definitely seems to have a difficult path ahead of her.

My Thoughts: I do not remember this anime, like at all. Pretty lady with glasses though… Shrugging intensifies. Also has a special.

He decides to start meeting with Kaori every day in the hopes of beginning to understand her better. The more time they spend together, the more she begins to open up to him. However, nearing the end of the week, she starts to push him away once more. It is then revealed to him the reason for Kaori’s cold front: at the end of the week, her memories of those close to her, excluding her family, are forgotten, as they are reset every Monday. The result of an accident in middle school, the once popular and kind Kaori is now unable to make friends in fear of hurting the people dear to her.Determined to become more than just one week friends, Yuuki asks her the exact same question each Monday: “Would you like to be friends?” Because he knows that deep down, Kaori wishes for that more than anything.

My Thoughts: The I’s are pretty well a bust, none of them were overly memorable and this title is no different. If you could see me right now, you’d see me frantically shrugging now. Artwork looks cute.
