Penguins invading anime network ! Minori Scramble turn into anime

Yeah, I know the title is kinda a disaster type title ... no ? .. ah, thought so ... XD

Be serious now !

Since I didn't know at all about it, I will copy/paste the synopsis ^^ - credits to ANN

The "slapstick science comedy" revolves around Tamaki Kakegawa, a fifth-grade girl who dislikes penguins after having to deal with them so much because her father is a penguin researcher. The antics begin with the appearance of Minori, a penguinoid (penguin + android) created to overcome Tamaki's dislike of penguins.

And chain combo with the video below !

After watching the teaser, I got a sudden nostalgic feeling... Manabi Straight ! Yeah, I remember, this design, this feeling of "everything and idiocy can make anime" is here XD

Ufotable, I remember now, they do some nice thing ! I think with this little new animation, we will get some new fresh air of science-comedy anime.

But for the moment, they're still on the audition step ! Go Go Seiyuu !

Shiki episode 9 review

Aya, couldn't resist at all, I watch straight Shiki, from the first episode to the ninth. At first, I thought it was a higurashi-like. But it is not. This is not a chinese puzzle, this anime is pretty good, I like the feeling during each episodes. Very intense for me, chilling in the idea because I'm trying to be at their place. I don't think Higurashi can be like that, because they're too surnatural (or too hardcore ^^'). Shiki is slowing turning from a slice of life (a slice of life ...just for 15 minutes from the first episode XD) to a mystery, to surnaturel, to horror. But still... we're in the "real world", others keep their human attitude, not turning into absurd (Higurashi gone wild !!! Wryyy).

The design is a little bit original, but ... it's not moe at all I'm sure ! Sometimes it's kinda creepy, I'm a little bit scared of those "full dark red eye" of those Kanemasa people. Especially Sunako. I never feel at ease while watching her. Also, I'm not a big fan of sharp chin, but just need to be used to it, that's all. And ... definitely becoming a fan of red eye, because here, they showed fear, horror .. huhuhu. It's eye of a predator ! not for bling bling ^^

The anime quality is pretty good, nice atmosphere playing with colors and background songs. Speaking of songs, the opening and ending are really nice ! Opening by Buck-Tick "Kuchizuke" is nice ! Ending is "Walk no Yakusoku" by nangi. And the effect played (like grey screen or light effect)  put red eye and gloomy atmosphere forward *shivering*.

Sunako desuu ! and a nice picture

Continue to read the post to see the review of the ninth episode ! (And more details for one who don't know the serie at all)

Gundam 00 movie second TV Spot and Code Geass Gaiden : Boukoku no Akito new Knightmare Frame

Here we go, the latest 15 seconds trailer !

Thanks Uvy for telling me !

Oya, some good new littles features I noticed during the trailer, yup ! Zabaniya got two "Lock-on" eyes on his shoulders. Re-watch his part in the trailer and you will see them when Zabaniya switch to gunfire mode.

Other little news, is about the Code Geass Gaiden, in project at the moment. Got the new nightmare frame the hero should be using during the anime. And it was confirmed on the official site.

Total Weirdness, it's a Nightmare Frame and Eureka Seven touch design ? Looks great, but still not convinced by the head and middle part. But Legs rock !

MMD - epicness ... Vocaloid

Long time I haven't watched a MMD (MikuMikuDance) on youtube. And during MMD cup, there are always great videos ! And today, I was totally glued to my laptop screen watching this video XD

I don't know if you will feel the same, well I shared the video ^^

Teaser Steins;Gate anime

Surfing peacefully on the net, and got a sudden envy to visit Anime News Network. What's the first news I read ... 

The game Steins;Gate which was announced in anime a few weeks ago, finally got a little teaser for his anime title. Here the streaming video, however no anime footage, just pictures and music in background. A song picked in the game, composed by Takeshi ABO (Monochrome Factor) and Toshimichi ISOE (Myself;Yourself, Demonbane, Ayakashi)

Too bad we don't have single clue on the animation. However I have faith in the OST, if the opening have the same quality as the game opening, I thinks it's enough for me :P

Cencoroll 2

Hey, remember of Atsuya Uki, The man behind Cencoroll, an independant anime.

Well, we've got some crunchy information, the production of a supposed "Cencoroll 2" is up ! Got the green-lit.

It will be a continuation of Cencoroll, story, characters, we will finally see more about them and Cenco

.

It seems Cencoroll got a pretty good feed back, and most of the people wish to know more ... Yahoo, we will see Cenco again !!This mysterious little weird monster, that can transform in almost everything. Kind of impressive, I remember, I even said "I want one !!!" in my head while watching the OVA.

I pray that won't be abandonned later ! Let's pray for it ! It's one of seldom independant anime pearl, original, but incomplete, let's make it complete now ! *pray* ... ah .. who I can pray, I'm atheist... well just pray for their happiness and success !

Gundam 00 - A wakening of the Trailblazer : Gundam vs Alien ?

Sorry to take the train on the way, but ... hey, I won't post again the latest trailer of gundam. I'm sure you already saw the 6 eyes Harut, or the kick-ass Zabanya .. or the pig fat - slim leg Raphael XD ... oh forgot the Quanta ^^

Well, I'm really sweet, I will post the last trailer out ^^

Pretty impressive show but I hope it will be the end of that long long story. Gundam versus Alien, seems the article in NikkanSports revealed something that will confirm rumors and the madness or the genius of the old geezer of Celestial Being.

Kuroshitsuji Season II episode 9

First of all lets celebrate the come back of that blog *claps*!

I am not a Japanese speaker, thats why I will write down my first impressions on teh RAW episode and then the one to the subbed one.

Welcome back, master

From MenInASuitcase.DeviantArt

Hey everyone ! It's been a while since the last update ... maybe some of you noticed the new layout. "New layout, but no new post ? weird" you're saying, huh. Well it's just I'm not done, the layout is almost finished.

If some of you asked why I suddenly stopped blogging, it's not like I gave up on blogging, just like every students, they have exams and ... seriously it's not a joke, need to work harder and harder to get the shiny paper where is written the famous "You failed passed" =D

It's also a key for my future too, so it was necessary. Sorry for not saying on the blog.

Code Geass GAIDEN - New anime project revealed !!

This year, Kawaguchi Yoshitaka made an announcement about a new project about Code Geass. Well, I first thought it was the new manga .. but no, that's not it !

But, a big announcement was made ... Code Geass GAIDEN : Boukoku no Akito (or Code Geass sequel : Akito of the ruined nation). We have a synopsis and some picture, but nothing was revealed ... We can only imagine a little how the atmosphere can be. But we can't dig in more.

Arakawa under the bridge - First impression

I intend to watch it since the beginning ... since I read the plot summary.
Here it is --

Ichinomiya Kou has always lived according to the creed of his wealthy, successful family: never be in debt to anyone. But one day, under the Arakawa Bridge, his life is saved by a homeless girl named Nino. In order to pay her back, Kou promises to be her boyfriend; and thus begins his new life under the bridge.

Oh well, I thought : "It's SHAFT, so it's surely something good." However I need to confirm it by reading the plot. No doubt ! after reading it, I said "interesting ! .. this plot can turn into something great and unbelievable (laugh)". I judged the main character could be really special, by his "never be undebted" attitude and the situation he is.
 

To Aru Kagaku no Railgun - serie ended - review

At the beginning, I thought To Aru Kagaku no Railgun will be a simple sequel with slice of life and nothing interesting, and not related to the Index serie. However after some episodes, I'm forced to the conclusion that Railgun isn't like that. Railgun is just related to Index serie by the world and the character. It's a complete other story, with Biribiri as the main character. A story I thought was "slice of life" but in reality everything was connected, it was more than a slice of life. So after 24 episodes, my mind was satisfied. It's an anime which is better than I expected. And with Durarara, they keep me busy when I have nothing to do. To have my general impression on the show, well I really enjoyed it from the beginning to the end. And now, I ask a new "To Aru" serie !!

Hiatus End

*use Phoenix Feather on the blog*

And I'm back !!

"I'm back to kick your ass, Nemesis"

Finally, I saw so much news lately, I couldn't wait to post it but I'm too late so I think it's better to pass and to continue with blogging about the new show from Spring season.

Well, I'm happy to blog again ~~ however I think around end may till end June, I will made a new break, since I have exams *thinking hard till smoke appears out of his head*.

Gundam 00 new pv movie

Exceptionally, I am here tonight, to post a gundam trailer I see 2 days ago.

You surely saw the screenshot ... no ? well I link you to SRW dude ! ^^ - Here ! and Here !!

I don't have much time ..but ..weird I dont find any excitation in this trailer, I was just impressed to see Graham here ... XD And Celestial Being with so many allies now.

Seems there is more innovator, and more manipulation ! Hell Yeah ! Kick their ass 00 Quanta !! (oh and ...cool cockpit view :)

EDIT [thanks 19.04]
Here some translation --

Inno-Lindt: “I’m/We’re/etc’s going. Don’t you want to know the true strength of an Innovator? Of course, [I'll show/tell/whatever] you as you please.”
???: “Veda accumulated data on the world through the Innovades. We are supervising and controlling them.”
???: “Commence particle missile attack upon reaching the [designated] point as per Plan D34.”
Lyle: “You’re slow. Even though you’re an Innovator.”
Marina: “I want to deepen our understanding of each other and search for the best path. Not by opposing each other, but through talking and understanding.”
Allelujah: “It’s alright. Swinging by from time to time isn’t bad.”
Nena 2: “The Federation Government’s secret data: it’s data on the citizens who have strong QBW and the factor to become Innovators.”
Setsuna: “Ribbons Almark!?”
Allelujah: “They’re targeting Marie! Why?”
Billy?: “Diet member [Klaus] Grad, make a proposition to the congress that they be forced into a QBW isolation institution.”
Sumeragi: “Tell him how you feel. Yeah, that’s necessary to understanding each other.” {EDIT: The first line might be Feldt talking. The transcript posted on /m/ attributes it to Sumeragi, and I’m not 100% sure who’s saying it from the voice. If it’s Feldt it should probably be more like “I’ll tell him how I feel.” but I’m just guessing at the context.}

Setsuna: “I don’t get it, I really don’t get it.”
Lyle: “Sorry, your fun holiday is over.”
Nena 2: “I wonder if you’ve read the materials I sent you? Mister Innovator.”
Sumeragi: “These are the dialogues to come…”
Setsuna: [screaming]
Lyle: Setsuna!
Hallelujah: “What are you doing!?”
Tieria: “We Innovedo have decided to walk alongside humanity. For that purpose!”
Graham: “I couldn’t bear it any longer, BOY!”
Setsuna: “Roger. 00 Qan[T], Setsuna F Seiei, heading out!”
Setsuna: [screaming]

Dance In The Vampire Bund opening

Dance in the Vampire Bund opening


I know kiddo wants to post this anime himself, so I'm only posting its great opening xP Dance in the vampire bund seems to be one of the most promising anime of the winter season, and the episode 1 didn't disappointed me when I watched it so I can't wait for episode 2 to be subbed x3 There's nothing really special about this opening, but you can see the quality of the drawings and of the animation in it, and that's why I posted it here so you can all admire it xD I didn't post the ending too, but you can always go and check it out (especially guys I guess :P)
Anyhoo, try this anime out and let's see if it will really turn out as great as I think it will ^__^

Evyl ----

Don't call me Kiddo ! -_-

Well, I add my point of view on this opening. Coming from Shaft, I was a little bit disappointed, I waited a opening more darker and romantic ... This is romantic but too bright, I always dislike bright animation *argh ! my eyes !* However I agree there is a great chara-design and it's pretty well animated ^^

For the song, I found nothing interesting, not a cool voice which can reach our heart, neither a beaty rythm ... well something dull and boring. Too bad but the best opening of this season isn't Dance in the vampire bund.

PS : The most promising anime ? ...for it's more Durarara !

PS.2 : I will review the two first episode later this week-end :)
PS.3 : Oii !! Kevin, are you here ?!

Fall season review part II

First post of the year 2010, yeah ! And I wish to everyone a great year full of emotion and happiness ! Oh, and I suppose you notice but we're in a tiger year (after the cow year). It's Taiga (Toradora) year in short ! haha .. Oh and if you miss the first part, it's okay ^^ you can follow this link so you won't be left behind.
By the way, I also ended Seiken no blacksmith however I posted in this post since I finished today. In summary, we will talk in this post about series I began (more than one episode) and there is a ton : Book of Bantorra, Railgun, Letter Bee, Fairy Tail and Kampfer. Kimi ni Todoke and Kobato can be in the post but since I'm blogging them, I thought it's unnecessary to put them in.
