Danganronpa: The Animation Episode 4 – On to the Next Black

A lot of things happened in this episode and I can definitely feel that the show is cramming too much events in this episode. Good thing though, this episode is giving the characters some screen time to show more of their personalities and interactions with one another. Yeah, I know that it’s far from what the game can offer but I’m glad that the show is trying.

He's the cutest!!

Ishimaru is just so cute in this episode and his Super High School Level Manly Fight with the weird-haired-dude-#2 brings in some light feel to the show. Celestia’s sudden outburst is also something to talk about. She’s always calm and seeing this side of her makes me happy. Looking forward for more!

She's slowly becoming the best girl...

The highlight of this episode though is the weird relationship between Togami and Touko. I really feel that there’s something going on between them. No, I’m not shipping them! Not yet... Togami is willing to play the survival game, meaning he’s also willing to kill if necessary. He is currently reading murder mysteries to help increase his knowledge about it so that he can solve some cases. It seems that Kyouko has tone down this episode giving more emphasis for Togami’s role in this show. He’s slowly becoming an integral character in the story.

LOL. I just want to insert this here.

After Maizono’s case, Monobear became bored because there has been no black recently. He decided to give some of them a drive to kill and that is – their most hidden secrets and embarrassing moments. At first, I find it rather a shallow reason to kill someone (esp. when I first watch the sub wherein there’s no mention of the secrets part) but come to think of it, some people are willing to do anything just to cover up their dirty pasts.

That leads us to another murder and the unlucky one is our Super High School Level Programmer – Fujisaki Chihiro. She’s the most vulnerable in the group making her the easiest target. But I wonder if there is some other reason...

She's crucified... Look at the idol poster in the girl's changing room!

Good thing that this episode gives us more time to see the clues and they’ve been all hinted in the first half. I’m still having a hard time guessing who the murderer is. I know that I’m wishing for a harder mystery last week and look at what we have here. I can safely say though that Naegi, Kyouko, Togami and Touko are out of the question. The first two, it’s so obvious so let’s go with Togami and Touko. They’ve been really focused this week and at first watch, some people might think that Touko is the culprit given that she knows something about Genocider Syo. If that were the case, the Class Trial would be a little bit underwhelming because all they have to do is to prove her guilt. Same goes for Togami. I might be wrong though.

... let's have this cool guy

Overall, another enjoyable episode from Danganronpa. I’m looking forward to know who the murderer is and why and how he/she did it. I’ve heard that it’s the best mystery of the game so I have some expectations next episode. Meanwhile, I have to do my best to avoid some spoilers. They are everywhere!!!!

Before I end this post, I’m just going to remind those who want to leave a comment:

Please, DON’T COMMENT ANY SPOILERS FROM THE GAME!

I just received a major spoiler from one of my commenter a few days ago and that made me so depressed the whole day! Like damn! But hey, it’s not the commenter’s fault! However, I didn’t approve the comment for the sake of those people who wouldn’t want to be spoiled. Sorry.

Danganronpa: The Animation Episode 3 – The First Class Trial

Poor Leon. Poor Maizono. Poor... Wait, with what is going to happen to all of them I should pity them ALL! Lemme just say that this episode is really great! Nothing much happened, they just discussed, talked, and talked about Maizono’s case to save their own butts, but I feel the adrenaline rush throughout the episode. I already know who the killer is, the clue is just SO easy. Also, some shit in tumblr spoiled it to me. She's my girl! The character’s reactions and how they serve as a device to solve this murder case are what made this show so entertaining. We have this super suspicious gal, whom I’m starting to like even more. She’s annoyingly stupid but still, she’s awesome! We also have the detective, Kirigiri (as expected from her get-up). I thought that Celestia and the glasses guy would play a much better role in this investigation but I guess its Kirigiri and Naegi’s moment this week. Can I safely assume that Kirigiri is the main heroine now? These two will last long... I feel it The others don’t stand out because they just either talk a one-liner or just stay still as if they’re just a mannequin. Oh, wait... Asahina also talked a lot, I’m surprised. Maybe she’s next? The Sakura-chan reveal didn’t work for me though, is that supposed to make me laugh or what? Maizono originally planning out the murder struck in my mind because of her yandere vibes last week. She has the motivation. Unfortunately, her plan backfired and that lead us to Leon committing the murder. A murder for self-defense. Maybe he also saw that as an opportunity to get out of that Academy, but as he said, everyone can also be in his situation. He’s just so unlucky to trust Maizono’s letter. This is what happened... Who’s the one at fault? Is it Leon’s, the one who defended himself for self-preservation? Is it Maizono’s, who attempted to murder someone to break free from that hellish academy? I think both of them are, in some ways, at fault but most of the blame goes to the system. It works just like that in real world, but don’t let me start with that one. These are the clues, where were they last week? Most of us already guessed that Leon did it. But I didn’t put an effort in solving how he did it!  Maybe because we aren’t given that much tour to the environment and the evidence to work out with. Time constraint yeah, but if it’ll go on like this, I won’t be able to keep up in solving the mysteries. That would be a shame. His face... Leon’s reaction is so funny and creepy at the same time. It’s creepy in the sense that I can see some people reacting the same way when put in that kind of situation. Losing the calm and all. But who won't? When what awaits you when you were discovered is a gruesome/dumb way to die. Anyway, the mystery isn’t that impressive, but since it’s just the first one, it’s forgivable. The overall atmosphere made up for it so the episode is still great.  I think that the change in animation and art style is good and it gives off some unique feel. It makes me want to play the game to see the uncensored version of Leon’s death. I’m looking forward for a more fun guessing game... Make it harder next time... and more focused on the clues and the environment, please?

Danganronpa: The Animation Episode 2 – Those Who Can’t Adapt Won’t Survive

And the first one to kick the bucket is... Our Super High School Idol Maizono-san! SHIT. I didn’t see that coming. I’m not good in sensing death flags so forgive me but I’m really surprised that Maizono is the first one to fall. I even thought that she’s one of the main girls in this show. I was just really shocked. She’s been giving off some Yuno feel to me so I thought that she‘d go yandere for Naegi. Someone is already on the move. Someone wants to graduate early in that horrible academy. I wouldn’t blame X though. But given the flow of things, X have to die next episode. I’m just wondering what makes X target Maizono first. Is it because she’s the most unstable in the group? Wow. Pink Blood. Love it. Anyway, after her death they assemble in the gym where Monobear announces Maizono’s death. He informs them that one of them killed her and that they should discover X’s identity or else the innocents will all die. Based on that, whether you kill someone or not there’s always a chance of you biting the dust. Oh, Monobear you little creep! More Pink Blood. And look at her! To prove that the shit is real, we got to see monobear killing our Super High School Model Junko. The effect is both creepy and comical. Her reactions, as well as the bookworm’s, are just so funny... and creepy. I already predicted that she’s one of the first girls to die, based on her stereotype so I was not as shocked as with Maizono’s death. It’s just a shame that we never got to know more about her though. The Detective in the House! Our main character, Naegi, is plain boring but thanks to other characters, the show became more interesting. I love how levelheaded Kyouko and Celestia are, well let’s include Togami. Kyouko is still a mystery but given my observations of her so far, I think that she’s the Super High School Mysterious Girl or Super High School Detective. Just look at her get up! She’s also the most perceptive in the group. The main stand out for me is Celestia. Besides her character design (look at her hair!), her personality does stand out. She’s calm but with a touch of cruelty. I do agree with what she said though, in order to survive you must adapt to changes. In real life, that’s also how it plays. Sucks to be Maizono and Junko, both of which didn’t adapt to the environment. This clue says it all. *yawns* This episode's pacing is a tad bit too fast that I didn’t have time to think who the culprit is. The clues were shows so fast, as if they’re really rushing things. But overall, this episode is simply amazing! I’m buying it. I’m currently imagining what I would do if I were in their situation. Hmmmm... Let’s see how the Class Trial will go next episode. I’m so excited. Upupupu... Feel free to comment but please refrain from commenting some spoilers because I’ll kill you, okay?

First Impressions – Danganronpa: The Animation

Comments: “Kill or you’ll be killed.” Yeah, it was done multiple times already but, fuck, this show is definitely for me. It is an adaptation of a famous game of the same title so it already has its own fan base. Like Free!, tumblr has been full of danganronpa pictures before the show starts so I had already some ideas about it. I must say that the concept is really cool! Fifteen teenagers with special high school talents (?) are trapped inside a school by a monobear, the principal. In order to get out of that place, they need to kill one person. According to MAL, they need to kill one person and be able to do that without being discovered or else he/she will be killed. Fuck it. That makes me want to play the game! Okay, okay. For this to really work out the characters need to be likeable so that when they are killed, their fans will be put in despair. I remember my feels when one of my favorite characters in Mirai Nikki died, gosh. I guess you will be hearing a lot of people, including me, saying this: NOT MY FAVORITE CHARACTER!! Characters I like so far:

Celestia Ludenberg (The Gambler)

Ishimaru Kiyotaka (The Hall Monitor)

Kirigiri Kyouko (????)

Fukawa Touko (The Bookworm)

(I still don’t know their names, and yes, I cheated thanks to Cho’s characters guide picture) I don’t want them to die. I don’t have a deep reason for that aside from I still want to see them in this show. Partly because I like what is shown about them so far and I like their character designs. Talking about character designs, I think this is just okay. Looking a bit childish but all the more creepy. Since it’s adapted from a game, of course, there’s this game-y feel to it. I don’t know if that’s a good or a bad thing but I like it. I was just hoping that we got to see at least one murder this episode (the one at the beginning doesn’t count). Verdict: I’ll try to cover this show on my episode commentaries, that is, if I’m not that busy. Nevertheless, this show is definitely a keeper.

First Impressions - Brothers Conflict, Kamisama No Inai Nichiyoubi & Servant x Service

BROTHERS CONFLICT Comments: For the sake of watching these men doing some stuffs and trying to bang our main girl, I thought I could stick to this one. However, the first episode is so unbearable to watch for me. Yeah, for ME who enjoyed watching shows like UtaPri and Amnesia for the sole purpose of getting my weekly dose of bishies. This show has a large casts and it kinda reminds me of Starry Sky, which I dropped by the sixth episode. I can’t say that much regarding this episode because it’s just an introductory one except that I hate the squirrel. I hate talking squirrels! Especially when they are blue. Also, the main girl is boring as fuck... as usual. Thank God we have the twins. Verdict: One or two more episodes then I’ll decide whether to continue with this show or drop it. KAMISAMA NO INAI NICHIYOUBI Comments: Okay.... WTF IS GOING ON? I must say that the premise is great and interesting - God abandoning the world he created which causes the people not being able to die and reproduce. I’m digging it. It feels a little bit creepy because I imagine those people are becoming zombies. Yikes. However, by the look of the first episode this show is taking itself way too seriously. Yeah, it suits the concept but it’s not just up to my likings. I think that the visuals are great with all of its vibrant colours but my poor vision can’t hold up watching it for 23 minutes without break! Possibly because it was afternoon over there and the sun is so bright. Anyway, this has a lot of potential so I would like to discover how well this show could deliver. Verdict: I would like to know more about the story and our characters so I’ll check out the next episodes. SERVANT x SERVICE Comments: This reminds me of one of my favorite shows - Working!! From the upbeat OP to the visuals and character designs, it seems so familiar. Of course, they are both products of A-1 Pictures and by the same mangaka. Instead of a family restaurant, our main casts are working in a civil service office. It’s refreshing to watch a show with all adult casts. It’s fun watching their interactions with one another and the light atmosphere is infectious. Guess I just love this kind of shows. I had a fair share of laughs with this one and the characters are all so easy to like, which is a plus. Best part is that I ship Hasebe and Yamagami. Verdict: I’ll definitely follow this show this season. I've been pretty much late with my impressions posts because I've been so busy these past few days. Out of 15 shows that I've downloaded, I've only managed to watch 4 of them (for the current season). I'll keep my posts short and straight to the point. Less effort and time consumption.  Anyway, let's enjoy this season's offers okay?

Final Impressions – Hentai Ouji To Warawanai Neko

This is clearly one of the best shows of Spring 2013. At first, I am hesitant of trying this show because of its title. Things like panties, boobs, crotch and any other form of “H” stuffs flashed through my minds. Yeah, this show has them but they are shown in a fairly decent and cute way. So why do I consider it as one of the best shows of Spring? Well, it is the most consistent show that I’ve watched in this line-up. Week after week, it has been delivering a good and solid story backed up by strong humour and cuteness. I must say that I’ve underestimated this show and I didn’t expect it to deliver this well. I thought that it’ll just focus on the fan service, moe and comedy but little did I know that the overall mystery that runs throughout this show would be so interesting. All of those wish granting/cancelling actions our characters have gone through, at first, seems so trivial but at the end of this show, almost everything makes sense. There’s also some drama, which was handled really well. The characters did contribute to the overall greatness of this show. ALL of them are adorable and likeable. Tsukiko remains expressionless by the end of this show but I think it suits her best. It adds up to the cuteness level of this show. Azuki, the one I consider as the best girl, is still the best girl. Gosh, they should’ve end up together! The airheaded Tsukushi still believes that Youto has a younger brother. Her dumbness is way beyond my comprehension but still she’s as adorable as the other two. Even the side characters, like Ponta and Emi, are also a great contributor to the show. But the main highlight of this show is Yokodera Youto. He’s a strong lead even though sometimes he falls into the “oblivious harem MC” type. It’s refreshing to have a really perverted guy as the main lead even though it’s only for his words and intentions. I also like the fact that the girls have fair share of moments with him, even though right from the start it’s pretty obvious that he’ll end up with Tsukiko. Interesting story, likeable characters, ummm, what else? The visuals and animation are also one of the best of the season. J.C. Staff did an excellent job in making the quality consistent throughout the show’s run. It’s vivid and colourful, which is such a feast to the eyes. The character designs are cute, of course and the backgrounds are well detailed. The OP and the ED are both memorable and... cute. Gosh, this show is just so cute. I’m really glad that I’ve picked up this show and I’ve learned my lesson that I shouldn’t let the title deceive me. And also, don’t underestimate a romcom show cause they can deliver much better than those that have an overly ambitious plot but fails to deliver. It has been a pretty nice ride, Henneko. I hope to see you again, maybe in a form of an OVA.

First Impressions – Free!- Iwatobi Swim Club

Synopsis:

The story revolves around Haruka Nanase, a boy who has always loved to be immersed in water, and to swim in it. Before graduating from elementary school, he participated in a swimming tournament along with his fellow swimming club members, Makoto Tachibana, Nagisa Hazuki, and Rin Matsuoka. After achieving victory, each of the boys went their separate ways.

Time passed, and in the middle of their uneventful high school lives, Rin appears and challenges Haruka to a match, showing Haruka his overwhelming power. Not wanting it to end like this, Haruka, gathers together Makoto and Nagisa once again and brings a new member named Rei Ryugazaki to create the Iwatobi High School Swimming Club in order to defeat Rin.

Comments:

The most awaited swimming anime is here!  Guys, let’s celebrate!

Oooh wait! I’m late for the party. Gomen.

This has been so popular ever since that commercial has come up. Even though there’s a little chance of getting an anime adaptation back then, people have already written some fanfics about this show and created a lot of fan arts. They even named them based on their characteristics, like pimp-kun for Nagisa! And don’t forget the title “Ore to omae no sa o oshiete yaru yo”.  Mostly, these people are from tumblr. So when the anime has been green-lit, I’m one of those who celebrated.

This is a pretty good first episode. We are introduced to four out of five main characters, all of which has a thing for each other swimming. The animation is great, as expected from KyoAni. The character designs of our well-built, handsome young men are excellent. The dialogues somewhat have a “double meaning” or maybe it’s just my imagination playing tricks on me again. At any rate, don’t mind me.

"If you swim with me, I'll show you a sight you've never seen before."

Anyway, the story doesn’t look that much promising so far but, hell, I’ll stick with this show. The OP and ED, especially the ED, is amazing. Haruka, looking for water in the dessert and his mini boy band before that. I definitely want to see how KyoAni will put more substance to this show and shame those who dropped this just because of its manservice.

I already expect a lot of doujins about this show and I’m more than willing to check them out.

Verdict:

I’ll stick to this show and try to cover it for my episode commentaries.

Final Impressions – Devil Survivor 2 The Animation

One of my disappointments this season. As you have read in my first impressions post, it was one of the shows that started great.  I expected more from it because I have heard that the game is good. But then again, it’s my fault for expecting too much. “The show could’ve been better.” I’m one of those who believe in that line. After watching the finale, I finally have a good view of what this show is trying to accomplish. There’s this version of this show that is currently running inside my head. The adaptation seems to be at fault in this one. They tried to tell the story of the game in mere thirteen 24 minutes episodes. That affected a lot of aspects of this show. How does this work? PLOTHOLES. There are a lot of things that are not explained in this show! Yeah, I know that every little things should not be explained to the viewers but at least try to tell something about them! Don’t throw all those words and give me all these events like I should already know them. All I can do is to pause the video, scratch my head, and try to think whether it was mentioned somewhere, then hit play and say “fuck this shit, never mind”. Boom! Boom! Boom! Even brigh- PACING. Due to time constraint, this show is fast paced. There’s this time wherein the show is better off with that kind of pacing but the show decided to slow down. Like WTF? It doesn’t match what’s needed in the episode. Despite the fact that the pacing is fast, the show is still boring. I can pause the video halfway, open chrome, check my twitter and tumblr until an hour has passed and I already forgotten about the video I’m watching. Is this show telling me to ship them? A BIG NO. LACK OF CHARACTER DEPTH and DEVELOPMENT. Well this is the main issue for me. I think that for a show to really work, I should be able to relate and to like the characters. It doesn’t need to have a super ambitious plot but if ever a show have both, then it’s EXCELLENT. It’s pretty much apparent with my tastes if you’ve been reading my blog. Here, the characters die one by one and I couldn’t care less about them. They just die without us knowing that much about them or even moving the plot along the way. Okay, they tried to put some scenes to show their stories but little snippets won’t work! I really want to care about them but out of all the casts, I only liked Airi-chan and, in this case, it’s just because she’s cute. My cute Airi-chan. Anyway, the show is decent at best. It’s not horrible, okay? It’s not just that amazing. The animation and the visuals are great. The fight scenes involving the demons and other summons are such a feast to the eyes. I can totally see that the game is great. Speaking of the game, some of those who have played DeSu2 can’t help but compare it with the anime. I’ve heard that the show kinda deviates from the game (Can someone clarify this?). They said that it’s far more better because you can sympathize with the characters and etc. Well, as  a non-gamer like me, I have no fucking idea about that. But if I have the chance, I want to play it. Digimon using high tech phones. This show could’ve been better if it has 24 episodes, IMO. They can take their time and slow down a bit the pacing of this show. They could focus on the characters to make them seem real and relatable. They could also explain a lot of what’s going on in this show. But of course, that’s not the only solution, but that’s all I can say right now. Like I said, the ending makes me realize how great that ending would be if I understand the show and the characters better. I appreciated the efforts in animating this series, though. I had fun in this show as well. I guess in terms of my “shipping” *tehee*.  But overall, I guess this is a decent show.

Final Impressions – Kakumeiki Valvrave

I love this show PERIOD! Why the hell did I not blog about this one? Added to one of my regrets as an anime blogger. I could fanboy like hell to this show. I know and I am aware of the faults of Valvrave. I have read tons of posts regarding how bad and awful this show is. Some people may get affected by these opinions and disregard this show as trash. But the hell I care about that. I actually enjoyed this show more than the others. So if you’re looking for a post with all the negativity of this show compiled, you’re in the wrong page. This show is about a boy living in a neutral territory in space wherein there’s an ongoing power struggle between two main powers – Dorssia and ARUS.  He discovers a mysterious humanoid weapon called the Valvrave. I WAS not a great fan of mecha, well I think still am. I just recently appreciated the awesomeness this genre can offer from Code Geass, another Sunrise show. Then here comes Valvrave and my inner fanboy took another turn. I think that this show offered a lot of things that I want and a lot of famous tropes anime can offer. Since this isn’t a review (I suck at writing one), I’m going to list down all the things that I like in this show. Picture spam below.

Cool and action-packed mecha fights

Colorful, isn't it?

High School Drama

High School love triangle... where's L-Elf?

Space Vampires

My OTP!

Interesting Characters

My favorite girl! She was developed so well in this cour Bitch please, I'm AWESOME!

ERRRUUU-ERRRUUUUFFFUUU!!!

Shoko knows how to prioritize Yeah, she's somewhat a bad influence for Akira OMYGAD! THIS SHOW IS FUCKING AMAZING!

Piloting the Valvraves

Unit 001 Unit 004 Unit 005 Unit 003 Unit 006

OS-tan

Sex. Sex. Sex. Sex. Sex. Sex.

Best OP and ED

And last but not the least...

Haruto x L-Elf

To SUMMARIZE: I love this show: 50% because of Haruto x L-Elf Ship and 50% because of *other reasons. There's probably more but this is all I can come up with as of the moment. With all the hate this show is receiving, I think it deserves some fanboy-ing posts so here it is. I can’t wait for October to come because I’m really looking forward for the second season. It looks really promising! Until then, Valvrave!

Karneval Episode 13 [Final]

Circus tries to get into the Rainbow gate, but only Gareki and Nai get through. They see Karoku and Nai runs up to hug him, but Gareki suddenly can't move. He realizes that something is wrong and struggles to shout at Nai. Nai looks back and realizes that the real Karoku is lying in a death-like state on the ground. They eventually complete the mission and bring Karoku back, where he is saved by Akari but stays unconscious. Gareki decides to leave and study to become a member of Circus and they bid a sad farwell to him. After the credits, Karoku is seen awake in the hospital bed, watching a bird fly away from his window.  If Karneval is meant to advertise the manga, then it definitely succeeds in doing so because I want to read the manga right now. This show has a LOT of potential and when things are getting better and better, it ends. That just sucks right? I mean, that left us wanting to know more about them and to uncover the mysteries surrounding the series. that stare.... So apparently, there are two Karokus: The real one and a clone. The clone claims that he has the same cells as Karoku so he is also Karoku. I wonder if Karoku really made a clone of himself.  That clone is the one communicating with Nai telling him to leave Gareki and go back to him. He’s also the one who hurt Tsukumo, which I was glad since the real Karoku is not the one at fault. But... Karoku is still a mystery. We never get the chance to know him. He may be as bad as the clone, who knows. Maybe they are really one and the same just like a snake shedding its skin. Unfortunately, if one would not read the manga or just wait for the second season (if there’ll be one), then we’ll never get to know Karoku better. Right now, I’m just glad that he’s still alive. I wonder how they survived that explosion This episode felt rushed. The fight ended so suddenly so I’m a bit disappointed. Uro was defeated by the Circus members! I thought that he’ll be a much formidable opponent and he’s going to face either Tsukutachi or Hirato. Don’t get me wrong, I’m glad that Tsukumo and Iva have their moments but... Anyway, their mission to retrieve Karoku was accomplished even though they didn’t get evidence about Palnedo’s involvement in Kafka. The traitor, Azana also escaped. And we never got the chance to know what’s inside the small box! Oh god, there’s so much thing left unsolved. We'll see you again! Gareki decided to enter a school to get more credentials so that he can join the Circus with his head held high. He felt so useless in this whole event (well in the whole show as well) so his pride was severely hurt. He still wants to stay with them of course, but he needs to prove his worth. Him joining the Circus is another thing to look forward to in the second season. We want to get to know you better, Karoku-san Overall, this show has been a great ride for me. There’s a lot of ups and downs but this show manages to redeem itself in the end. The greatest aspect of this show is its character design and visuals. Really, it’s one of the best this season. It’s flashy and colorful. The OP and the ED are both memorable. But most especially, I had a lot of fun shipping a lot of possible couples of this show! I'll miss you guys I’m going to miss my weekly dose of beauties, but I guess not for long cause I’ll read the manga. The show has been all over the place but I think it wrapped up everything in this final episode pretty well. I just hope that Karneval has been this good earlier so that some people didn’t dropped this show. Oh well, it just followed the manga honestly and I wouldn’t like it if they changed so much stuffs. This is one of the shows that will benefit for another season. But even if the sales are doing well, the materials are not enough so let’s wait with our fingers crossed. We hope to see you again!
