Ookami Shoujo to Kuro Ouji



Episode 9

Kamiya... such a player!
He made it his goal to get Kyouya onto a player path.
Erika's boyfriend got stolen by Kamiya LOL
Luckily Kyouya is the type that knows how to ignore others.
The whole thing just baffled Erika..
That game was just an excuse to get Sata to his side.
Was happy to see Kyouya is a smart boy.
At least if was sweet to see him happy with Erika.
Maybe Kamiya will understand things a bit better now.


Akame ga Kill!



Episode 22

Wonder who else is gonna die before the anime ends..
Kurome is pretty persistent considering her state.
Flashback to the 2 sisters' past offered some additional info.
Akame vs Kurome!
Didn't seem quite fair considering Kurome is not well.
It didn't feel right either..


Shingeki no Bahamut: Genesis



Episode 8

More flashbacks to Amira's past.
New info is always a good thing ^^
That honorable knight, Amira's dad.. there's more to their story.
Favaro & Kaisar got knighted LOL
Jeanne got a pretty cool new toy.
Azazel got exactly what he deserved.
Oh, what a bummer... Amira's real dad is still a mystery.
Maybe she'll finally be able to find her mother.


Yowamushi Pedal 2



Episode 9

The trio caught up to Hiroshima team.
Damn, those bastards pulled an evil ace from their sleeve.
We got ourselves a new villain.
Midousuji just got officially dethroned.
The leading bunch got a bit scared by the new threat.
Flashback to Hiroshima's race last year was kinda sad.
That explains his desire for revenge and cruel behavior.


Parasyte -the maxim-



Episode 10

Shimada got himself in a weird situation.
That situation caused him to kill around.
Guess he couldn't stay rational after not being able to transform back.
Shinichi had a small identity crisis, but recovered fast.
Izumi revealed his super powers to his friend.
Surprisingly she's oblivious enough..
So many died because of Shimada..
The government guys have learned quite a lot about parasytes.
Will see how good or bad that is.


Naruto Shippuuden



Episode 389-390

Hinata's sister's point of view.
Just another side story to draw attention away from the war.
Of if you want to put it bluntly, a filler.
It repeated some stuff we've seen before.
The only new thing was some stuff about Hinata's sister.
If you skip these 2 episodes you won't miss a thing.


Psycho-Pass 2



Episode 9

Mommy Kasei & son Togane are completely insane.
Akane made a good point of a few things.
I can't quite figure out Shimotsuki yet.
She might end up as collateral along the way.
Kamui dished out some justice this time..
I liked the look in Akane's eyes.
Just knew her grams would end up in the middle of things.
Why else would they introduce that character now?
Good episode.


Amagi Brilliant Park



Episode 10

Damn, park sure became impressive and like it should be!
Sento spilled the history beans.
Latifa is a cursed Princess..
Kanie made a difference, but will it be enough?
The deadline is painfully close and the visitor count is not high enough.
Wonder how they'll attract 104 000 people in 10 days..

Current anime episodes comments - Naruto Shippuuden, Psycho-Pass 2, Amagi Brilliant Park, Terra Formars, Fairy Tail, Sword Art Online II, One Piece, World Trigger

Naruto Shippuuden



Episode 388

More of the same procrastination.
Gaara decided to pitch in with his monster.
That brought about some flashbacks about his life.
We all know how hard he had it, but a reminder was good.
So once again we were watching flashbacks instead of the war.


Psycho-Pass 2



Episode 8

Finally more about Kamui.
He sure is unique sum of parts.
Also, he's very knowledgeable too.
Kamui is obviously trying to get some kind of revenge.
Shimotsuki sure is determined to get rid of Akane.
She always felt threatened by Akane.
Unfortunately she dug herself a hole to die in.


Amagi Brilliant Park 



Episode 8

Kanie drove himself to exhaustion.
Running a whole park is not an easy job.
Especially since they have a deadline.
Isuzu's anger is fun ^^
Her playing Kanie in the suit was interesting.
Damn, taking places playing Kanie was hilarious!
Had a nice few laughs while watching it.
Great episode.

Episode 9

Damn, that defense system...
It sure was a challenge.
Fairies made a mess of things when they pushed the button.
Karaoke trial was fun ^^ and so was the dancing.
The rest of the guys got to enjoy watching them LOL
There was always one that sucked at something..


Terra Formars



Episode 10

Damn, those roaches never cease to amaze me.
Their ability to learn and adapt practically instantly is epic.
They never seem to run out of ideas to keep killing humans.
Rock throwing was troublesome, but not unbeatable.
The flying attack girl Sanjo looks awesome.
Good episode.


Fairy Tail



Episode 35

Well, I'm not that into this arc.
It feels like a giant game.
In this particular episode it's game show meets yu-gi-oh!
Definitely not something I expected to see.
It was mildly amusing, but I like classic fights better.


Sword Art Online II



Episode 21

Kirito was showing off his coolness.
Asuna was amazing as well.
I really enjoyed watching those fights.
The boss fight was really nice too.
After party was well deserved!
Yuuki's behavior is getting weirder though.
Good episode.


One Piece



Episode 672

Rebecca got hurt.
The little people's plan got seriously derailed.
Looks like they underestimated their opponents.
Flashback to the past was interesting.
There's always more to the story..


World Trigger



Episode 8

The same group that makes One Piece makes this anime.
I'm guessing that's why we have a longish summary of previous episode each time.
Seems like a waste to me..
I'd like to see more of it, not less new plot.
I presumed Jin would come to help & I was right.
Shuji sure has a intensely serious grudge against neighbors.
Border guys made a bad decision for Kuga..

Current anime episode comments - Ookami Shoujo to Kuro Ouji, Akame ga Kill!, Shingeki no Bahamut: Genesis, Yowamushi Pedal 2, Love Stage!!, Parasyte -the maxim-, Terra Formars, Alice in Borderland

Ookami Shoujo to Kuro Ouji



Episode 8

Spring break & 1st date with Kyouya since his confession.
He wasn't in a romantic mood at all..
Erika sure was blindly persistent.
Even though they are a real couple, nothing changed.
It took her most of the date to realize it.
Guess they have different opinions of what a date should be.
Yet again she adapted to his wishes. Kinda sad.
From time to time he seems to be trying, but it's very slow & little.
Sata got some male competition in his new class.
That should make things interesting.
Kamiya is a total player and a problem.


Akame ga Kill!



Episode 21

Tatsumi rescue mission!
Esdeath sure likes him, shame she's a psycho.
Kurome looks like she living on borrowed time.
That arena hosted one hell of a fight.
Susanoo is always full of surprises, but so is Mine.
Tatsumi got rescued, but with a steep price.
MC deaths keep piling up..


Shingeki no Bahamut: Genesis



Episode 7

Demon invasion, cool!
Loved the fight scenes ^^
Amira was being her usual weird self.
Guess meeting her dad put her in childish mode.
Jeanne was impressive.
Favaro & Kaisar on the same side.
It's certainly much nicer when those 2 are friends.
Great episode!


Yowamushi Pedal Grande Road



Episode 8

3rd day race sure is getting intense!
Those Hiroshima guys totally used the pack's naivete.
It's too late for them, but Onoda wasn't giving up!
Teaming up with Hakone guys was the best choice.
This time Onoda was be able to learn quite a lot!
Hope Arakita, Manami & Onoda take down the Hiroshima roaches.
Great episode!


Love Stage!!



OVA

Ryouma finishing his movie.
Izumi doing his usual stuff.
Their reunion after a while was not as exciting due to chaperones.
Ryouma was SO not happy about that.
Izumi's insecurities hurt Ryouma pretty badly.
As fate has it, those two just can't be apart ^^


Parasyte -the maxim-



Episode 8

Izumi's level of cool just went through the roof.
He sure has changed a lot!
Damn, his dad sure took a turn for the worst..
Even if all those changes gave him superpowers, he's still trying to be human.
He is trying, but he seems to be failing too.
Also, he's alienating from Murano.
New transfer student made things interesting.

Episode 9

Oh, so the government is aware of the parasytes.
Well, that's good and not so good at the same time.
Megane girl seems to be onto something about Shimada.
Izumi trying to patch things up with Murano.
Shimada is gonna be a problem.


Terra Formars



OVA 2

Wearing a roach as a suit was pretty cool.
The roaches seem to be evolving like crazy.
Some backgrounds of specific characters were shown.
The fights were nice.
The overdose effects were pretty extreme..
Everything seems kinda futile.
They keep going, keep dying, keep failing...


Alice in Borderland (Imawa no Kuni no Arisu)


OVA 1

Parallel worlds, alternate reality, the future?
At first it was fun, but then it was time for a reality check.
From a dream to a game.. and a dangerous one too.
Looks very interesting though.
This would be a good anime series.

Current anime episodes comments - Parasyte -the maxim-, Naruto Shippuuden, Psycho-Pass 2, Terra Formars, Fairy Tail, Sword Art Online II, One Piece, World Trigger

Parasyte -the maxim-


Episode 7

Shinichi meets someone like him.
That guy was way more pathetic though.
He was lucky he stumbled on Shinichi.
Looks like Migi & Shinichi both evolved quite a bit.
Uda got unlucky.
Shinichi vs mom!
That's what I was waiting for.
Interesting how Uda finished her off in the end.
Guess Shinichi doesn't have to feel bad about her death now.
I like the new Izumi ^^


Naruto Shippuuden



Episode 387

It's hard to makes others see what you see.
Guess this was Obito's intervention by Naruto.
To make him remember his younger days.
Forced soul searching and questioning choices.
I was surprised that Kakashi wanted to kill him instantly.
Guess Naruto's dad felt responsible as his former teacher.
Lots of flashbacks this time too.


Psycho-Pass 2



Episode 7

Akane's grandma makes an appearance.
Didn't think we'd get to see her family at all.
Never even imagined she had one.
Shisui authorization + 8 missing dominators = major problem
So some part of Kamui's past came into light.
Looks like things are moving forward.


Terra Formars



Episode 9

Adolf got his time under the spotlight.
Some of his past got revealed.
Damn, it's so creepy when the roaches start talking.
Shame Adolf got killed.
Still, not surprising considering the number of enemies.
He did go with a bang, that's for sure!


Fairy Tail



Episode 34

Interesting episode.
Lots of different fights with celestial spirits.
Our dragon slayers need to change their tactics a bit.
None of them were having any luck.
New versions of celestial spirits sure are weird ^^"
Still, it was fun to watch it.


Sword Art Online II



Episode 20

I could see why Asuna related to that bunch.
She is still partly hung up on SAO though..
Her mom does have a point sometimes.
Still, she was being harsh and unreasonable too.
In-game Asuna is great, but in RL she has a lot to learn.
Guess she's more comfortable like that since she lived there after all.
Cool episode end.


One Piece



Episode 671

It's always fun to watch Zoro fight.
Little tin soldier put up a good fight too.
Shame he's just a toy though.
The devils fruit factory is a horrible place.
Rushing into a fight with Sugar was a BIG mistake.
This might just significantly mess up their plans.
Good episode.


World Trigger



Episode 7

Finally, the reason why neighbors attack was revealed.
It was actually pretty simple.
Looks like Chika will join our little duo.
Chika's past was shown as well.
That little flashback from before now finally makes sense.
Chika could just make an A rank border agent with ease.
Damn, if those border agents just didn't see Replica...
Surprisingly, even Kuga had some problems dealing with those agents.
Intense episode end, nice!

Fairy Tail



Episode 33

Natsu & Co. crashed the celestial spirits meeting.
Nobody was happy about that.
Interesting that they knew about only 12 days of living.
Incredible that they didn't care.
Those fights were bound to happen..
It sure is gonna be fun watching them.


Sword Art Online II



Episode 19

Asuna's life in reality.
Yeah, it's not happy at all.
Her mom is so cold and calculated.
Doesn't care about Asuna's feelings at all.
It sucks when your life is forced to be what your parents want it to be.
The in-game fight with Yuuki was great!
Looks like another adventure is about to start.


One Piece



Episode 670

It's not gonna be easy planting that "grape".
That shock wave attack was scary.
The fighting fish attacks were fun to watch.
Rebecca finally realized everyone was leagues above her in power.
She wasn't gonna quit though.
Lao G sure is an interesting guy.
Looks like everyone had their own set of problems.


World Trigger


Episode 6

Mikumo learns more about side effect.
Shame he's not strong enough to have one of his one.
Hanging out with Jin was interesting.
Looks like he knows a whole lot about good Neighbors.
Well, it's nice they have someone new on their side.
That Jin is beyond impressive!
It's LOL how they force credit on Mikumo all the time.
Amatori meets Kuga.
Kuga riding a bike or at least trying to was ROFL
That girl is special and definitely has some kind of power.
Looks like Mikumo is now officially a B-rank agent.


Ookami Shoujo to Kuro Ouji



Episode 7

Kusakabe-Kyoya talk made Erika make her decision.
It's wasn't an easy one either..
So she decided to give Kusakabe a try.
Their relationship is going just fine too.
Although she seems to be forcing herself.
That encounter with Kyouya in the infirmary was intense.
The White Day date was great until she dropped a bomb on Kusakabe.
Guess she likes being Kyouya's dog after all..
Wow! Did not expect that episode end.
Was about time too!!


Akame ga Kill!



Episode 20

Shura takes the lead.
Back to Jaeger headquarters.
Looks like Kurome isn't fine at all.
Taking out the Prime minister is gonna be a challenge.
Budou makes an appearance.
Shura got what he deserved.
Unfortunately Lubba payed with his life for it.
Tatsumi got captured & faces public execution.


Shingeki no Bahamut: Genesis



Episode 6.5

Amira's story gets revealed.
Things get shown from her perspective.
The whole plot so far got summarized.
So halfway through they decided to give us a summary..
It was fine, but a new episode would've been better.


Yowamushi Pedal



Episode 7

Imaizumi barley managed to catch up to Kinjou.
He kept getting one shock after another.
It was like other riders were playing with him.
Still, it was obvious he isn't strong enough to ride with the aces.
The pack was just scary.
They are getting dangerous.
Even Onoda was feeling it.
Damn, 3rd day race takes no prisoners..
Hiroshima guys finally made the first move.

Shingeki no Bahamut: Genesis



Episode 6

Everyone got caught.
Amira sure has interesting powers.
Favaro showed off his tail ROFL
He's not gonna get out of that deal so easily.
Helheim is the place where he's gonna end up eventually.
Info about Bahamut was interesting.
The mystery man remains an enigma until next time *sigh*


Yowamushi Pedal



Episode 6

Hiroshima's ace brought in some additional stress.
Him feeling up Kinjou & Fukutomi was just weird & inappropriate.
Guess his tactics was to mess up their concentration.
He sure got to Onoda..
Day 3 finally started!
Imaizumi tailing Shinkai.. not an easy task.
Sohoku-Hakone collaboration was interesting.
The pack could be a dangerous thing.
Hiroshima's ace is totally using those desperate riders.


Parasyte -the maxim-



Episode 6

Shinichi's naivete brought him to fatal injury.
As a result he became even more connected with Migi.
After that he definitely became even more alien..
Well, at least there were some up sides to that.
Sinichi lost his mom, but he still has his dad.
Things definitely took a sudden turn for the interesting.
It was just sad watching his dad delusional about mom.
Great episode, things got intense!


Naruto Shippuuden



Episode 386

And we start off with in a flashback..
Chunin exam was fun ^^
Kakashi excelled as expected.
Obito was still a normal kid then.
Their triangle relationship was similar to that of Naruto, Sakura & Sasuke.
Life is full of regrets.
They're stretching the plot again..


Psycho-Pass 2



Episode 6

That "game" was a very deadly one.
Shisui went to the dark side.
Wonder how Kamui gets people to follow him as puppies.
It's just messed up.
Those drones sure rampaged more than enough.
Kamui slipped their grasp once again..


Amagi Brilliant Park



Episode 7

Summer time! Water park!
Shark time.... not a good choice.
Pirate time + magic flood time = disaster time?
Isuzu's anger towards Tiramie was epic.
Still, that shark did good later on.
The whole ordeal passed for an attraction which was actually pretty cool.
Damn, this episode sure was fun!


Terra Formars



Episode 8

Some background stories.
Guess they're doing a detailed intro of each character each time.
Wish they would focus more on Mars.
The new info is fine, but too much side story is just a diversion.
Good episode, but with too much side story.


Donten ni Warau



Episode 7

A different side of the same story.
Getting a new perspective & characters was interesting.
Wonder how they are related to the main story.
The love story they added was kinda sweet.
Guess this story was about one of the past Orochi vessels.
Good episode.

Donten ni Warau



Episode 6

Seems very unfair that Big Bro is gonna get executed.
Two younger brothers aren't going to give up easily.
It was nice to see even the people wanted him to live.
Story about Orochi finally got told.
Flashbacks to that time were a nice touch.
Damn, didn't think they'd really kill him... a shame.


Fairy Tail



Episode 32

The Eclipse Project sure is messing things up even now.
It even affected the Celestial Spirit World.
That explains the weirdness in the spirits behavior.
Still, it's sad to see the relationships between celestial wizards & spirits so disrupted.
Pisces sure gave them a lot of trouble...


Sword Art Online II



Episode 18

Well, they seem to be enjoying themselves..
Looks like they spend more time in game than out of it.
Exchanging experiences in a coffee shop.. nice.
It was sweet that they made it back to their old cottage.
Guess they wanted some of their old life back.
Next episode should be more action filled.


Fate Stay Night UBW



Episode 5

Captain of the archery club missing.
Shirou - Tohsaka relationship shifted to enemies again.
Interesting how they don't care about destroying the school.
Seems like they are just enemies when opportunity presents itself.
Those two sure have an unusual relationship.


One Piece



Episode 669

Stone Monster by Pica.
Now even the Navy meddled in.
Senor got a time-out while Franky dealt with Navy guys.
He is always full of weapon surprises ^^
Poor Cavendish got turned into a toy..
That power sure is a scary one.


World Trigger


Episode 5

Kitora is a master of misunderstandings.
She is also very competent in dealing with civilians.
I bet she'll come around eventually.
Jin finally makes and appearance.
Was waiting to see the power elite!
Mikumo got judged for breaking the rules.
Luckily things went to his favor although they are suspecting something.
Takumi Rino is the spitting image of Maes Hughes from Full Metal Alchemist.
That sure brought back memories..


Ookami Shoujo to Kuro Ouji



Episode 6

Kyouya still so mean..
Valentine's Day preparations.
Kusakabe is an interesting character.
Even I thought he was a girl at first.
Kyouya showed some jealousy.
Guess he doesn't like when Erika hangs with other guys.
She did overdo it this time.. and her attitude backfired.
Kusakabe's got guts.
Erika heard every word of Kyouya's "feelings" for her.
Damn, next episode should be very interesting.


Akame ga Kill!



Episode 19

It sure is practical to have Susanoo around ^^
Akane's appetite still amazes me.
Seryu strikes again.
Tatsumi & Mine got themselves more trouble than they can handle.
Damn that Coro is scary.
Who knew Mine would pull an ace out of her sleeve, impressive.
