Both Sakamoto and Himiko ran into trouble.

Make a giant robot together with JAXA plan was kinda LOL
Aki still digging into Kimijima report.
Him opening that radar dome during a typhoon was not a good idea.
This anime dealing me with the Kamijima mystery than actual robot building.
Medaka Box Abnormal
Episode 8
Medaka meets her long lost sister Naze.
Now that was not a typical family reunion.
Naze is totally a psycho and beyond saving.
Medaka's goodness was brutally used by Naze.
She shouldn't have been so trustful.
Those reinforcements with Unzen were kinda refreshing and very much needed.

Anime Movies - Welcome to the Space Show (Uchuu Show e Youkoso)
Wow! This one was off to a blazing start! Not just that, but was also very intriguing with lots of action. Looks like a true science fiction anime movie.
After the first bombastic impression things died down a lot. It just looked like any other summer time anime. Very relaxing and uneventful with the pretty much usual kids stuff going on. Well, it was like that until they found a dog in a crop circle. After that it was a roller coaster ride! Pochi, the alien dog was really a fun guy to have around. Surprisingly, he had no problems fitting in and everyone accepted him easily.
Trip to the moon was just awesome! So many new, unseen and amazing things. That moon base was like a big amusement park. Probably because of all the colorful and unusual stuffed toy looking aliens. The part when the got stuck on it and had to get jobs was really fun and interesting. Pochi's home planet and his father's good work were really nice. The best parts were all the different things out group encountered. Everything was an adventure without end. As any good sci-fi movie this one also had bad guys in it. They were tripping up our main characters along the way, but they never got discouraged. As this anime movie was approaching its end, things got more and more intense. There's a hero in everyone, just waiting to come out.
This was a summer vacation they will never forget. I really enjoyed their space adventure since I love sci-fi stuff very much and the fun/action/amazement factor was pretty high in this one.
Plot:
The plot revolves around five elementary school kids on their "school
trip". In the process of looking for their missing class pet (a rabbit
named Pyon-Kichi), the children find and rescue a dog they find injured
in a corn field. The dog turns out to be an alien called Pochi Rickman,
and he invites them to visit the moon as a reward for helping him.
However, through a series of strange events, they become stranded and
must make their way across the galaxy to get to Pochi's homeworld, Wan;
so that they may return to Earth. Along the way they are pursued by the
aliens responsible for Pochi being injured in the first place. The
aliens work for the host (called Neppo) of the universe's most popular
entertainment, "The Space Show", which appears to be a variety act
broadcasted from a mysterious moving spaceship.
Neppo is bent on using the power of the ship, called the Pet Star, to
become a god. However, the ship requires a particular power source to
run; namely a substance called Zughan, which turns out to be a close
relative of the wasabi root. As Natsuki is carrying some of the root
with them in her bag, Neppo has thus targeted the group. When his thugs
fail to retrieve the bag, Neppo goes himself; arriving just as the
children and Pochi reach Wan. The Pet Star's tractor beams steal the
bag, but they also take Amane as well.
This leads to a show down at an interstellar festival, where with the
help of friends they've made along the way, the children manage not
only to defeat Neppo and rescue Amane but also save the entire universe.
The children are then able to return home (along with Pyon-Kichi, who
had been kidnapped by Neppo's henchmen as well) and arrive at the school
just before their parents show up to retrieve them.

Chopper was cute as ever trying to catch that cloud.
That Whitestrom was a bumpy ride.
It was nice seeing memories of Laboon again.
This sure was a fun episode to watch.
Space Brothers
Episode 34
Hibito was really enjoying himself.
Taking off the suits part was kinda LOL
Guess everyone was not comfortable with it since they are on the moon.
Well, everyone except Hibito ^^
He was just totally carefree, but it took the pressure off of everyone else.
Mutta at home, waiting for the test results..
Little Busters
Episode 8
I watch this anime and I wonder what they're gonna do with 26 episodes.
Nothing much has been happening except fan service.
There's not much of a plot either, except for the part with some baseball and new member.
Little Busters are like a members collecting club..
At least this time they got a talented Kud baseball player.
Think I'm gonna drop this one. It's going nowhere.
Magi
Episode 8
Alibaba... again a thief.
Just what happened in the meantime..
So he's using Amon to plunder around.
The hero of the deprived or just a continuance of his previous profession?
Guess we'll see soon enough.
Poor Aladdin... no wonder he was depressed, but that kids sees positive things everywhere.
Flashback to Alibaba's childhood was interesting to watch.
That Kassim was just bad news.
From nothing to everything to nothing to everything to nothing again.
That's just unbelievable, but that's Alibaba's life.
Muv-Luv Alternative: Total Eclipse
Episode 21
It's all about power.
The inner conflicts have begun.
Between those and the Beta Yuuya and his crew will have their hands full.
So now they think they could choose how gets to be left behind to die.
Interesting episode. Things are finally moving forward again.
Hiiro no Kakera 2
Episode 9
Takara & Ryo seem to have the same employer.
The truth is slowly coming out.
At least those two are there to help.
Tamaki & Takuma alone in school... that didn't last long.
It's nice that her Guardians figured out Tamaki's story was true.

Fairy Tail
Episode 158
The Grand Magic Games have finally begun.
First game "Hidden" was really interesting.
This game of hide and seek really gave a new meaning to the original game.
It sounded easy, but it really wasn't.
Very complex and intriguing game which needed serious skills.
Eve was definitely smart and used a good tactic, but Rufus was just amazing!
Shinsekai Yori
Episode 9
Shun missing...
Everyone was worried and determined to find him.
The trip outside to the forbidden zone was interesting.
Lots of weird things and inconsistencies.
Looks like Shun ended up just like all the other kids who went missing before.
Saki had a sister who ended up just like all the others.
Very interesting episode.
Jojo's Bizarre Adventure
Episode 8
Dio certainly has some weird looking monsters around.
Seems like Zeppeli's teachings have significantly improved his fighting skills.
Jojo's grudge keeps on rising every time those two meet.
It's simply amazing how every time we see Dio he has some new powers.
He's also practically impossible to kill and not for the lack of trying from Jojo.
Don't think it's the last time we see Dio...
Sukitte Ii Na Yo
Episode 8
That took guts! Good for Mei ^^
Things aren't going well with Yamato.
She was pretty much down about it.
The whole modeling and Megumi thing is really getting to her.
It was about time someone opened Yamato's eyes.
Kai suddenly entered Mei's life. Yamato may get some competition soon.
Maybe there is still hope for those two..
Sword Art Online
Episode 21
So they finally arrive at the world tree.
That server maintenance was rather conveniently put.
At least she found out what a horrible man her fiance is.
Darn, she was so close to escaping... it's so not fair.
I guess Kirito is her white knight who will rescue her after all.
Oh man, Leafa is actually Kirito's sister with a serious big brother complex.
That's just not good..

Doing some random mission...
I can't say it was bad watching a usual Naruto-on-a-mission.
It was more nostalgic and reminded me of the old days.
At least the enemy was pretty good and connected to the current war.
The second part was sort of a story of its own..
Bakuman 3

Ashirogi Muto really have grown a lot.

At least everyone except Yoshida encouraged him to confess.
The biggest surprise was that she actually accepted.
Psycho-Pass

The story about the schoolgirl continues.
Kogami taken off the case.
Well, at least that was to be expected considering..
That didn't stop Akane to discuss about the old case with him.
That Yoshika schoolgirl is seriously deranged...
She's gonna kill off most of her schoolmates.
It's a mystery how she hasn't been caught yet.

Jormungand 2
Episode 19 (7)
Nelson, Brick and Echo army days new info was nice.
It's always good to learn something new and interesting about Koko's crew.
The chatty convoy stories and flashbacks were nice.
It's felt like they decided to fill in the gaps with new info while doing a slower story.
The ambush and plan to kidnap and ransom Koko was a raging failure.
Those guys totally underestimated Koko ans her crew.
Kamisama Hajimemashita
Episode 8
Nanami is totally crushed and down.
It only gets worse 'cause Tomoe is always around.
Watching Tomoe avoid touching Nanami was kinda sad.
Even the trip to the beach couldn't be Tomoeless.
That guy is all tsundere... wish he would admit he feels the same for Nanami.
The appearance of King of Dragons was kinda LOL
That guy is a joke compared to Tomoe, yet he was still scared to go into the ocean.
Saving Tomoe... Nanami sure gave herself an impossible task.

Anime Movies - Grave of the Fireflies
Near the end of World War II, a story about a brother and sister in the middle of the chaos of war. Watching this movie just made me realize all over again how horrible war is. It was even worse for the kids without any parents. They were lucky to have a place to stay in the country. It was nice watching those two siblings have some fun together despite the circumstances.
Watching things get worse over time was just sad. People getting crueler as times get harder... This movie shows the kids perspective of wartime. Although it was very hard, those two still managed to put smiles on their faces as much as they could.
Living on their own was good at first, but things went bad rather fast. No food, no help, no understanding... just sad truth about life. After the surrender things were slowly going back to normal for some people, but not for Setsuko and Seita. Those two had their lives changed forever. They truly were the collateral damage of war about which seems to be nobody's concern.
Grave of the Fireflies is a hard, sad and emotional movie which emphasizes the history behind the battles of World War II in Japan. There was nothing nice or beautiful about it except the never ending hope of two children.
Taking place in the final months of World War II in Japan, Grave of the Fireflies
is the tale of the relationship between two orphaned children,
14-year-old Seita and his young 4-year-old sister Setsuko. The film
opens in Sannomiya Station
on September 21, 1945, and portrays Seita, in rags and dying of
starvation. A janitor comes and digs through his possessions, and finds a
candy tin containing ashes and bones. He throws it out, and from it
spring the spirits of Setsuko and Seita, as well as a cloud of
fireflies. The spirit of Seita continues to narrate their story, which
is, in effect, an extended flashback to Japan near the end of World War II, during the firebombing of the city of Kobe.
The flashback begins with a fleet of American B-29 Superfortress
bombers flying overhead. Setsuko and Seita, the two siblings, are left
to secure the house and their belongings, allowing their mother, who
suffers from a heart condition, to reach a bomb shelter. They are caught
off-guard as the bombers begin to drop hundreds of incendiary bomblets,
which start huge fires that quickly destroy their neighbourhood and
most of the city. Although they survive unscathed, their mother is
caught in the air raid and is horribly burned. She is taken to a
makeshift clinic in a school, but dies a short time later. Having
nowhere else to go, Setsuko and Seita move in with a distant aunt, who
allows them to stay but convinces Seita to sell his mother's kimonos
for rice. While living with their relatives, Seita goes out to retrieve
leftover supplies he had buried in the ground before the bombing. He
gives all of it to his aunt, but hides a small tin of fruit drops,
which becomes a recurrent icon throughout the film. Their aunt
continues to shelter them, but as their food rations continue to shrink
due to the war, she becomes increasingly resentful. She openly remarks
on how they do nothing to earn the food she cooks.
Seita and Setsuko finally decide to leave and move into an abandoned bomb shelter. They release fireflies
into the shelter for light, but Setsuko is horrified to find that the
next day they are all dead. She digs them a grave and buries them all,
asking why they have to die, and why her mother had to die. What begins
as a new lease on life grows grim as they run out of rice, and Seita is
forced to steal from local farmers and loot homes during air raids. When
he is caught, he realizes his desperation and takes an increasingly ill
Setsuko to a doctor, who informs him that Setsuko is suffering from malnutrition
but offers no help. In a panic, Seita withdraws all the money remaining
in their mother's bank account. As he leaves the bank, he is distraught
when he learns from a nearby crowd that Japan has surrendered unconditionally to the Allied Powers and that his father, a Captain in the Imperial Japanese Navy
who had promised him that Japan could never be defeated, is probably
dead, since nearly all of Japan's navy is now at the bottom of the
ocean. He returns to the shelter with large quantities of food, only to
find a dying Setsuko hallucinating. Seita hurries to cook, but Setsuko
dies shortly thereafter. Seita uses supplies donated to him by a farmer
to cremate
Setsuko, and puts her ashes in the fruit tin which he carries with his
father's photograph, until his own death from malnutrition in Sannomiya Station a few weeks later.
In the film's final scene, the spirits of Seita and Setsuko are seen
healthy, well-dressed and happy as they sit together, surrounded by
fireflies, and look down on the modern city of Kobe.

Eureka Seven Ao
Episode 23
It's certainly been a while since the previous episodes.
Ao, Fleur and Elena fighting the Truth.

Naru is still delusional about the new wold.
Only two options available Scub or Secrets.
Ao didn't like fighting Naru one bit.
Eureka, Ao & Renton reunion was nice ^^
Episode 24 Final
Ao's dad finally made an appearance.
So Scub are the invaders and Secrets are the protectors of the planet.
Finally some answers are given.
Truth the archetype, that was an interesting turn of events.
Guess every world has something different in it.
The past, present and future really are all messed up when it comes to Quartz.
All is well that ends well and this time Ao made it well.

Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun
Episode 8
Zombie house of terror was a really something...
Shizuku still indecisive about Haru.
That punch in the face really froze their relationship for a moment there.
Poor Oshima just can't catch a break with Haru..
Haru seems to be very flammable when it comes to misunderstandings about Shizuku.
Lots of weird situations this time.
It sure was a fun cultural festival.
At least Shizuku was honest with him for a change.

Hunter x Hunter
Episode 56
Killua & Melody shadowing the Phantom Troupe.
The weather conditions and the traffic jam weren't helpful either.
Those guys are not easily fooled.
Kurapika was barely keeping himself in check when they got closer.
He's lucky Gon reasoned with him.
The phantom troupe managed to find out Kurapika's appearance.
That's just bad and very dangerous since it renders his one-on-one fight plan useless.
Little Busters
Episode 7
Masato vs Rin sister.
He lost that fight right from the start.
There's no messing with her cats.
The playing catch part was fun to watch.
Kanata sure is a serious girl.
Saigusa on the other hand is a trouble maker, but is not always automatically guilty.
So Little Busters got another member..
Code: Breaker
Episode 7
So Sakura met quite a few of Ogami's comrades.
Ogami in lost form wasn't looking good at all.
Toki's lost form on the other hand was really cute and LOL
All of them staying at Sakura's place... that was an interesting idea.
Well, at least all of them were having fun.
So Hitomi was the one behind it all.
Didn't think he would dare to attack Sakura's house with all 5 code breakers there.
Guess he thinks he's better then all of them.
Sakura making a stand was impressive! She really is a special one.
Muv-Luv Alternative: Total Eclipse
Episode 20
So this is not actually episode 20, but a special episode 2.

Basically it's a summary.
So nothing new this week until Nov 25 when episode 20 is aired.
Hiiro no Kakera 2
Episode 8
Takuma desperately trying to save Tamaki.
Those two really are meant for each other.
Seems like everyone was against Takuma.
At least things are getting very interesting now.
It's good Takuma took the Onikirimaru.
Good, but also bad if he keeps using it's power.
Kutani Ryo's sudden appearance was a surprise.
Magi
Episode 7
Aladdin and Morgiana traveling together.
Can't wait to see all three of them together.
So they picked up Sin and arrived to Balbadd.

That Sin was just too carefree..
Yet another explanation of rukh energy and Magi.
The fog troupe problem was rather serious.
Why would Alibaba rob people when he got all that wealth and title?
Maybe it's something that in his blood... guess we'll find out next time.

Current anime episodes comments - Fairy Tail, Shinsekai Yori, Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, Sukitte Ii Na Yo, Sword Art Online
Fairy Tail
Episode 157
Interesting they chose purple as a team color.
At least they found Wendy.
So the 8 guilds who passed the preliminaries are presented.
A dark guild is participating as well. Looks like they're to blame for Wendy's condition.
The biggest surprise was Fairy Tail them B.
This was a pretty cool episode! I'm looking forward to the fights.
Now it's once again starting to look like Fairy Tail from the first days.
Shinsekai Yori
Episode 8
So they're back in school.
Saki's still hopeless when it comes to controlling her powers.
Shun & Satoru BL part was unexpected to say the least.
Saki & Maria yuri part was surprising too.
Guess no one is in a normal relationship.
Things took an even weirder turn when Shun dumped Satori.
Shisei's little surprise visit was interesting.
So their punishment for things that happened 2 years ago is just pending.
Jojo's Bizarre Adventure
Episode 7
Zeppeli past and new info were interesting.
Damn... that Tarkus monster sure did a number on Zeppeli.
Jojo was lucky to have such an amazing friend.
It's a shame Zeppeli had such a short role.
Dio is spreading his evil where ever he can.
So Jojo lost one and gained 3 new comrades.
Sukitte Ii Na Yo
Episode 7
Yamato in a magazine.
Mei having doubts and jealousy attacks.
I guess that was the point.
Megumi is playing an interesting game to separate him and Mei.
Mei was working hard on her cooking, but that couldn't compare to Megumi's plan.
Megumi and Yamato always together on every photo just made things worse for Mei.
At least all of it gave her some much needed courage for that epic kiss.
Sword Art Online
Episode 20
Nice save Kirito! ^^
Kirito vs General Eugene!
That was a really really nice fight. Impressive!
He sure made an impression on the Salamanders.
