Summer Season’s here! Bring out your tako-balls, lamune and tissues(!) as I show you some of the shows I’m watching!
Sekirei
Summary: Join Sahashi Minato as he discovers his true destiny when he mysteriously becomes a Ashikabi(Master) out of nowhere by a Sekirei(cute big breasts girls) and has to battle out the 108 others.
Thoughts: Breasts! Breasts! Breasts! I’m serious. The manga is completely aimed at entertaining young guys who needs a pervert rush all the time. Expect lots of fanservice, ‘boing boing’ and the finale, blood spurting! Other than that, don’t expect some major story plot happenings…(laughs)
Mahou Tsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto: Natsu no Sora
Summary: The protagonist, Sora, aims to be a licensed mage so that she can use her magic to help people legally. Her wish came true when one day, the Bureau of Magic accepts her application and she need to go to Tokyo to train. Her journey begins there.
Thoughts: Based on a spinoff of the same title, the English translation for this anime is actually ‘Someday Dreamers’. In fact, back in 2003, a TV anime was produced for this title of the same name, only different story. The storyline is a little like Aria, slow, calm and peaceful. But based on my research, there’s supposed to be a big romance story in it, which I don’t know if it’ll happen. Oh, let me add that you got to watch this in HQ, because the scenery is heavy in CG, making the environment look ‘real’.
Hidamari sketch x 365
Summary: Hidamari sketch is back for the second season! Join them as they have lots of fun learning art and life at the same time.
Thoughts: Stay away from this title if you are impatient, action seeker and need some fanservice. This anime has zero of it. However, if you are an Aria lover and/or had watched Hidamari Sketch for the first season, I see no reason why you shouldn’t try. Production and cast are the same as the previous season.
Zero no Tsukaima: Princess no Rondo
Summary: Louise and Saito are closer to each other more ever since the last fight ended. But fate seems to be playing with them again as Saito’s rune mysteriously disappeared. This means that Saito is no longer Louise’s familar (pet) and is a free man.
Thoughts: I don’t really understand how the story continues as I never read the novel before. Based on the trailer and research, I guess it’s something to do with the awaking of Saito’s true power and the answers to Void power. This season also introduces a new character, the elf. (which has big breasts as usual)
Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu
Summary: Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu is set at the private high school Hakujō Academy in Japan and centers around the male protagonist Yūto Ayase and his classmate Haruka Nogizaka. While Yūto is rather ordinary, Haruka is very attractive, intelligent, and rich. Due to this, she is the school’s most unattainable girl and is so idolized that her classmates give her the French nicknames “Nuit Étoile” (The Silver Star of the Night) and “Lumière du Clavier” (The Shining Princess on the Piano). One day, Yūto’s good friend Nobunaga Asakura asks him to return a book to the school library, and when he goes to return it, Yūto stumbles across Haruka and her darkest secret — she is a diehard fan of anime, manga, and the otaku culture. Yūto promises to keep her secret hidden and in return he becomes her confidante of sorts as he accompanies her to Akihabara, and visits her home often.
Thoughts: Unfortunately, I don’t really understand much from the first episode, so I can’t really comment on it. But based on the first episode, it seems like a pretty hyped up and fun anime title to watch. I’ll based on this to motivate me to continue watching.
I’ll cover the remaining OVAs (School Rumble, Negima) at a later date when I get to see the videos. What anime titles you guys are watching? Leave some comments to share with me!
Till then.
