Ok, so I haven’t died and deserted this blog just yet. But yeah, it’s been pretty inactive I have to admit. Here’s the summary of what’s happening: We I am getting absorbed by our brother blog to do my anime blogging there. There’s only one brother blog so that should make it obvious (ok… . . . → Read More: State of the Blog Address

Spring 2012 – Tasogare Otome x Amnesia

tzia_n — Wed, 11 Apr 2012 14:26:40 +0000

Roughly translates as Dusk Maiden of Amnesia, this is about ghosts and the supernatural.

It's about a specific ghost to be exact.

Well, there’s this Paranormal Activity club that aims to research every paranormal activity in the school.

Yeah, club anime.

But here’s the catch, their president is actually a ghost, and only . . . → Read More: Spring 2012 – Tasogare Otome x Amnesia

Spring 2012 – Kuroko no Basuke

tzia_n — Wed, 11 Apr 2012 13:42:42 +0000

Just like in any other basketball anime, we ask ourselves, “Will this be as good as Slam Dunk?”

If height is great, then basketball.

Well, I don’t think it will be, but let’s give this a shot. Basically we’re got a new basketball club in a certain high school that managed to do well . . . → Read More: Spring 2012 – Kuroko no Basuke

Spring 2012 – Mysterious Girlfriend X

tzia_n — Wed, 11 Apr 2012 12:48:26 +0000

The art in this series looks vintage and old…

Not to my taste, but whatever.

It starts off as a typical school life anime, with the sudden introduction of a transfer student who will turn the life of our main character Tsubaki Akira upside down.

Urabe Mikoto

But this transfer student Urabe is . . . → Read More: Spring 2012 – Mysterious Girlfriend X

Wow this episode was beyond awesome. There were even fighter jets!

Woot!

And so we pick up where episode 13 from three months ago left us, right smack into the giant tentacle monster fight. Saber and Rider are trying to hack away at the monster as Lancer awaits for an opportunity to attack Caster, . . . → Read More: Fate/Zero Episode 14

Spring 2012 – Upotte!!

tzia_n — Tue, 10 Apr 2012 13:27:58 +0000

Well, how about a bunch of school girls?

So what else is new?

But wait, this one deals with guns, and firing them.

Real guns by the way.

So how exactly are guns and school girls related in this show? Sure they fire guns, but the catch is the girls themselves are gun, . . . → Read More: Spring 2012 – Upotte!!

Spring 2012 – Accel World

tzia_n — Tue, 10 Apr 2012 12:44:20 +0000

We’ve got a fatty main character in this one, which kinds of makes it different and interesting.

Arita Haruyuki

Thanks to his small yet pudgy frame (seriously he’s like half people’s height), Haru has this inferiority complex. He’s even bullied to boot. His only refuge in life is the virtual reality, where even if . . . → Read More: Spring 2012 – Accel World

Spring 2012 – Natsu-iro Kiseki

tzia_n — Mon, 09 Apr 2012 09:14:40 +0000

Another anime about four female friends.

Four childhood friends to be exact.

Natsumi, Saki, Yuka and Rinko are four childhood friends. But a few days before the summer vacation of their second year in middle school, Saki and Natsumi’s relationship began to deteriorate as they get into fights.

"You're not my friend . . . → Read More: Spring 2012 – Natsu-iro Kiseki

Spring 2012 – Sankarea

tzia_n — Mon, 09 Apr 2012 08:03:08 +0000

Zombie anime! Everyone loves zombie anime.

She's not a zombie... yet.

Our main character Chihiro Furuya is a zombie maniac. In fact, he even claims that he doesn’t like normal girls, but only zombie girls. One day, though, his cat got run over by a car and died.

It was at . . . → Read More: Spring 2012 – Sankarea

Spring 2012 – Sengoku Collection

tzia_n — Mon, 09 Apr 2012 06:46:23 +0000

Another anime very loosely based on the Sengoku Warring Period in Japanese history.

Yes, they're all females.

And so a female Oda Nobunaga gets transported to present day Japan (that’s pretty much the theme of the show), and she falls down from the sky right smack on a guy.

Usual plot device.

Well, one . . . → Read More: Spring 2012 – Sengoku Collection
