That body switch thing is really amusing. It's also interesting to watch how they're coping with it. The new characters also look promising. New info about the island was interesting. Caesar Clown seems to be the main bad guy here. He's totally crazy too.
Space Brothers
Episode 51
Mutta - Nitta heart to heart was kinda nice. It helped Nitta feel a little less crappy. Flashbacks were pretty good too. They may all be full of understanding, but their team is not doing so well.
Hunter x Hunter
Episode 73
Lots of strategies. It's getting harder to predict everyone's moves. Genthru was being a pain again. Gon vs Genthru. I was surprised he was that weak even after all that training. Bisky was a pleasant surprise. Never saw that one coming. Killua was doing rather well in his fight, but that's kinda expected.
Natsu vs Twin Dragons!
He sure was pretty impressive this time.
It was just awesome watching them fight.
The best parts were when they used their amazing dragon slayer powers.
Short info flashbacks were a nice addition.
Natsu's power sure showed them who's boss ^^
Fairy Tail finally took the lead!
The ending left me kinda confused. It's weird that they didn't let us see the end of grand magic games.
Jojo's Bizarre Adventure
Episode 25
Car's new powers were really impressive.
Guess becoming the ultimate being has its benefits ^^"
He's pretty much invincible..
That's doesn't leave Jojo with many options.
It's like his new form just keeps adapting to every kind of attack.
Stoheim proved himself to be useful once again.
Wonder if that volcano will be enough...
Ore no Kanojo to Osananajimi ga Shuraba Sugiru
Episode 13 Final
So the final episode is here. That swimsuit contest sure served a higher purpose. Flashbacks were really nice as well. The girls were especially all over Eita this time. Masuzu was such a stubborn girl with lots of walls around her. Looks like Eita finally broke through her defenses and insecurities. Nice final episode.

So we finally got to see Maou vs Yuusha something like a fight. Didn't expect to see this at all judging by the way things were going. I wasn't surprised how fast he got her to her senses.. In this anime humans were pretty much the only bad guys. Humans were so difficult to deal with... so stubborn. All in all this was a good anime which could've been better.
More flashbacks....... again.
This is getting really old.
If Naruto doesn't step in soon and ends the war..
Can't figure out if they're just stalling or are trying to remind us of the good old days.
Neji - Hinata got all the attention this time.
Gintama
Episode 265 Final
Sadaharu was as cute as always.
This time that dog was the smartest one of them all.
It was just depressingly sad how Gin was a better owner than all the others.
Wow, this sure was a weird episode and pretty sad too.
Wonder why they made this one the final episode.
I was expecting it to end more with a bang.
Kotoura-san
Episode 12 Final
ESP Research Society meets its end. Lots of flashbacks this time. Kotoura's awkwardness was really cute ^^ This anime was pretty fun though. It was a good combination of fun, romance and drama.
Zetsuen no Tempest
Episode 24 Final
Things were pretty serious this time. The fights were hard as well, but also really good. Pillar definitely didn't want to go down without a serious fight. All's well that ends well ^^ Hakaze was pretty much funny without magic. Everyone finally got a chance to relax after everything that's happened. The ending was rather nice ^^
Wow! Things are getting very interesting. Well, wars are always a good source of cool anime fights. Alibaba was still pretty much useless due to lack of skills. The only thing that was his advantage was a good surprise attack. He also made the biggest mistake of his life. Hakuryuu proved himself to be selfless. Everyone was fighting their own fight in this war.
Amnesia
Episode 12 Final
Murderous Ukyo was pretty scary. I liked his normal side way more. His emotional reactions kept switching between his personalities. That made it harder to figure out when he's good/bad. I never thought he would be capable of such a personal sacrifice. At least this time they explained some things. Good final episode.
While fighting an intense inter-galactic war, a mecha pilot was
accidentally warped into a space-time neither he nor the computer of his
mecha could recognize. After waking up from a long-time hibernation, he
found himself trapped on a planet, with human residents talking in an
unknown form of language, using inferior technologies, and -- most
shocking to him -- naturally breathable air.
Kohaku was going through some serious demon problems. Her past was sad, but every piece of new info is a good thing. It's good that the others finally noticed Kohaku could be a problem. Grown up Shino was a really pretty sight! ^///^ Seems like his personality changed a bit as well, like he's more cheerful somehow.
Bakuman 3
Episode 24
Those two were totally in a daze. It was about time for their dreams to come true. They worked so hard for all of it. Hattori was pretty fired up this time! Reversi's build up to the grand finale had everyone itching for more. It got pretty much everyone fired up. Finally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They surpassed Niizuma! And this is why I love Bakuman!
So finally Luffy and his part of the crew join the battle.
Approaching Law so carelessly wasn't the smartest move.
He's changed a lot since 2 years ago.
Luffy can be such an airhead sometimes.
It was nice to see that the samurai head guy is not bad at all.
Reunion with Luffy was nice, but all that followed was just ROFL
Short summary was pretty enlightening.
Space Brothers
Episode 50
Nitta really made a mess of things.
Namba proved himself to be a true friend.
At least Nitta explained the reasons for the phone panic.
It was an interesting story and it let us to get to know Nitta a bit better.
Hunter x Hunter
Episode 72
So Hisoka plans on fighting with Chrollo.
Can't wait to see that fight happen.
Genthru's crew was up to no good as usual.
Playing tag with team Tsezgerra was kinda counterproductive.
Looks like some things will unfold next time.
Jojo's Bizarre Adventure
Episode 24
Cars really put Jojo between a rock and a hard place. Never would have guessed Lisa Lisa is Jojo's mom. Stroheim had his hands full as well. All in all, Jojo was holding on rather well. History about Jojo's parents was interesting.
Fairy vs Tiger with 4 dragon slayers = epic!! At least the finally have a chance to avenge Lucy. Seeing all those different dragon slayer powers was awesome. The biggest loser of the games so far is Lucy. She really didn't show much of anything.. Looks like the final episode next time will be a blast!
Shinsekai Yori
Episode 25 Final
Using Kiroumaru as bait for the fiend to kill triggered a death feedback and solved everything. Interesting how her wrong "wiring" was the end of her.. Yakomaru finally got what he deserved, but the punishment was horrible. Well, at least the humans learned that queerats didn't like being slaves. Looks like Yakomaru told the truth when he sad "We are humans!" The harsh truth finally came out... I was kinda expecting something like this. Nice final episode with all the explanations.
Ore no Kanojo to Osananajimi ga Shuraba Sugiru
Episode 12
Those two were totally overdoing with the "fake" in their fake relationship. Well, at least this trip-to-the-beach episode was fun. These kinds of episodes always make me smile. Probably because they're so typical, but in a good & fun way. There sure were a lot of emotions in this episode..
Shino was doing his best, but was it good enough.
It's time Naruto stepped up and did something.
I'm sensing more and more people are getting indifferent towards this anime.
Well, I agree because flashbacks, fillers and occasional fights are just not cutting it.
Maybe it's time for this anime to take a break.
Oh, and Naruto's rasengan was not good enough to save this episode.
Gintama
Episode 264
Shinpachi and Gin heart-to-heart was nice.
It was nice seeing Shinpachi's brave side for a change.
This was a pretty touching episode, not many laughs in this one.
Well, I guess that concludes this story.
Kotoura-san
Episode 11
Clash with the attacker was more funny than serious.
Kotoura needed some confidence boost.
Don't think leaving Manabe out of it was the best choice.
Moritani finally showed some courage and confessed.
Looks like there is still some hope left for her.
Everyone seems to be more or less paired up now..
Manabe played the role of the hero rather well.
Tsukino being the culprit, never saw that one coming.
Zetsuen no Tempest
Episode 23
So the plan is finally revealed.
Hakaze & Yoshino's emotions were clouding their judgement.
I get it, any girl would be angry on an indecisive guy.
Yoshino needs to get over Aika or things are gonna get even more complicated.
Well, at least some of them were enjoying the tropical paradise ^^
And so the fighting begins...
Psycho-Pass
Episode 22 Final
Kogami vs Makishima! That was what I was waiting for!
Akane's hope for Kogami was just amazing to watch.
She really trusted that guy in every way.
Kogami - Akane team really was the best.
Makishima was the type of guy who never quits.
He just needed someone to stop him.
That Sybil system is truly a disturbing thing when you see its true form.
Pretty good final episode.
Robotics;Notes
Episode 22 Final
Finally, some serious action!
It was pretty cool watching the mecha fights.
Who knew their plan would work using a giant robot.
That Kimijima Kou was a real pest.
Seems like they made a lot of desperate moves.
They were lucky some of those actually worked.
Nice final episode with some drama.
Maoyuu Maou Yuusha
Episode 11
This more and more looks like a crossover between Wolf & Spice and a strategy game. When I first started watching this I was expecting fights and romance. What I mostly got were economic strategies and trading tips. So far the only thing that peaked my interest were the occasional demon spells, portals and bits & pieces of the war. Looks like the remaining two episodes have more potential.

They reached the top just to get into yet another difficult fight. It would be nice to see them win without so much trouble for a change. Either way, things are getting rather intense as the season finale gets near. It was nice watching Alibaba fight, even though his skills need a lot more practice. The war with Sindria and the reasons for it seemed kinda harsh and personal.
Bakuman 3
Episode 23
It was really fun watching Mashiro's reactions to everyone's approval of Miho & him. Everything was going their way until that public voice actress auditions. That complicated things, but was also cruel of the animation guys to do something like that. It felt like universe was against them again... The whole situation just put more pressure on Miho and Mashiro. OMG! Finally! Finally their dreams are coming true. Can't wait for those two to get married!
Amnesia
Episode 11
Is there a single guy in this anime that wasn't her lover?? *sigh* At least Ukyo made some sense of the story. The world trying to kill her part added a nice twist to the story. Looks like he has a split personality problem. It's one of those potentially dangerous things for the heroine. Seems like each of the male characters has some kind of a personality flaw.
Mysterious invaders called the Septentriones arrive in Japan and begin
attacking the country on a Sunday. To fight back, the heroes in Devil
Survivor 2 signed a pact with the devil to become the Thirteen Devil
Messengers. The Septentriones show up at least once a day and you have a
time limit of seven days to defeat them.
Several hundred years ago, humans were nearly exterminated by giants.
Giants are typically several stories tall, seem to have no intelligence,
devour human beings and, worst of all, seem to do it for the pleasure
rather than as a food source. A small percentage of humanity survived by
walling themselves in a city protected by extremely high walls, even
taller than the biggest of giants.
Flash forward to the present
and the city has not seen a giant in over 100 years. Teenage boy Eren
and his foster sister Mikasa witness something horrific as the city
walls are destroyed by a super giant that appears out of thin air. As
the smaller giants flood the city, the two kids watch in horror as their
mother is eaten alive. Elen vows that he will murder every single giant
and take revenge for all of mankind.

he runs for his life, Kannagi of the 12 convinces everyone that Arata is
the one who has murdered the princess instead, and now everyone in the
Imperial Court is after his head!
Keno really does look like a girl. So all of them have the same mark on their bodies. Wish they would get to the point with the story already. Kohaku (the golden eyes girl) is truly an enigma. Wonder what she's hiding. Shino getting shot was really really bad. Things went out of control so fast. Shino is totally childish sometimes ^^" He grew up suddenly, wow! That was cool. Him losing his self control is not good at all.
The story is about a 15 year old girl named Izumiko Suzuhara. She

This is an interesting movie. The story is rather unexpected, but it is also relaxing and nice. The animation is not that good, but the story itself makes up for that. As I started watching this movie, my first thoughts were innocent, relaxing and a nice love story. The power of love in this type of anime movie just amazes me every single time. It's wonderful how you can find love in most unexpected places and this anime proves that point.
Life can truly be beautiful when you have someone that loves you and that the love is mutual.
Things changed rather quickly after the unfortunate event. Life moved on and new experiences followed. It was really hard raising two half-wolf children. As the kids were growing up it was pretty impossible to stay in the city. Moving in the middle of nowhere was the only logical thing to do. It was really nice watching them grow up with all the freedom they could ever possibly want.
Don't quite understand why, but I really like this kind of anime movies. Maybe it's because of the positive feelings it gives off, maybe because of the message that anything is possible and never as bad as you think or maybe just because of so much love..
Plot:
Nineteen-year-old college student Hana meets a young man who sneaks
into her classes for lessons and falls in love with him immediately.
They soon start dating. One day, the man reveals his identity to Hana;
he is a Wolfman and the only surviving descendant of the extinct Japanese wolf.
Undeterred by this fact, Hana invites him to live with her. A year
later, when Hana becomes pregnant, she decides not to visit a hospital
out of fear that her child would be a wolf. Their daughter, Yuki, is
thus born at home on a snowy day, along with her brother, Ame, who is
born a year after her, this time on a rainy day. Not long after Ame's
birth, the Wolfman suddenly disappears. Hana searches frantically, only
to discover that city workers were working to remove a wolf's carcass
from a canal. He had died accidentally while hunting to feed the
children. Although devastated by the loss of her beloved, Hana resolves
to take good care of her wolf-children by herself.
However, Hana discovers that living in the city with her children was
extremely difficult. Yuki, who is temperamental, often switches between
her human and wolf form, creating a lot of noise, making the neighbors
unhappy. Child-protection officers have been hounding Hana because her
children had not gone for the compulsory immunization program.
Making matters worse, her landlord receives complaints that she was
keeping pets at home due to the wolf cries made by Yuki and Ame, and
threatens to evict her because the apartment forbids pets. Eventually,
Hana decides to move to the countryside and stumbles upon a dilapidated
house that was virtually rent-free, but requires a lot of renovation
work. Most importantly to her, however, is the fact that the nearest
neighbor is miles away, and the house is surrounded by nature.
Hana gets down to work immediately, repairing the house and later
tried to grow crops. Initially skeptical of her at first, the other
villagers warm up to her and help her to settle in. One fierce old man
who treats newcomers harshly even shows Hana how to grow her own farm.
At the same time, Hana tries to find ways to educate her children about
wolf survival in the wild. She eventually gets a job as an assistant in a
nature reserve to learn more about nature. Meanwhile, Yuki loves the
new environment, while Ame dislikes it. One day, Ame finds the will to
chase after a kingfisher, but loses his footing and falls into a stream, and nearly drowns. After that day, Ame became a more confident person.
Soon, when Yuki and Ame reaches school-going age, Yuki begs her
mother to send her to school. Hana agrees on one condition: they must
never transform into a wolf in front of people. Although Yuki does not
fit well into the school environment initially due to her background,
but she soon adapts and makes many new friends at school. On the other
hand, Ame does not adapt very well and gets bullied to the point he
stops attending school and frequently wanders into the woods behind
their house. Later, Hana discovers that Ame was taking lessons from an
old fox about hunting and survival in the wild.
In school, Yuki's class receives a new transfer student, Souhei who
ultimately tells Yuki that she smelled of an animal. Fearing that he
would uncover her identity, Yuki avoids him. However, he follows Yuki
around the school until Yuki, unable to control herself, transforms into
a wolf and scratches him across the ear. Haunted by this incident, Yuki
refuses to go to school. However, moved by Souhei's persistence in
sending her homework and foodstuff every day, Yuki eventually returns to
school, and even became good friends with Souhei.
On one stormy day, when Ame's "master" dies, Ame decides to take over
his role in the woods, but despite his mother's objections, he slips
away without Hana knowing. During her search for Ame, Hana slips and
falls down a chasm, but is rescued by Ame, who carries her out of the
woods. Before regaining consciousness, Hana has a vision where the
Wolfman apologizes to her for the burden she had to bear in raising
their children and tells her he is proud of how they have grown. Hana
berates herself for Ame's disappearance, to which the Wolfman responds
that Ame has found his path in life. When she awakens, Hana finally
accepts Ame's decision, and watches in awe as he howls and disappears
into the distance as a matured wolf. Meanwhile, Yuki, who was left in
school with Souhei, reveals her true identity to him and confesses that
she was the wolf who attacked him. Souhei admits that he knew this a
long time ago, but he has already forgiven her.
Years later, Yuki attends a boarding middle school, making a lot of
new friends in the process and despite Ame's disappearance, his howls
could be heard far and wide. Meanwhile, Hana continues to live in her
old home, happily knowing that she has raised her wolf-children well.
Law's powers are pretty impressive. The body switch is a useful thing to use on others. It brings confusion and makes things difficult for the enemy. So he was the one who slices people, but they don't die. Guess it was him who sliced that samurai Nami and the others found. Unless there's someone else there with the same power. Law vs Smoker! That was just epic! So many new and interesting powers to see. Wow, Law is truly a scary monster.
Space Brothers
Episode 49
This survival training has been rather boring so far. I know they're just showing us why the need to this part, but it's still not interesting. They need something or someone to mix things up a bit.
Their team is the worst so far and it's getting harder to endure. Nitta's attitude wasn't helping the situation at all. In the end all the problems they encountered improved the quality of this episode.
Hunter x Hunter
Episode 71
The dodgeball game continues. Razor is truly a scary strong guy. Three of them could barely match the power of just one guy. It's no wonder he's the one guarding the island from outsiders. Hisoka pulled through for them and made that victory happen. It was really nice of him to do something like that. Also, it's out of character for him. Looks like we'll get a fight over Patch of Shore card soon.
