Actually I Am will draw comparisons to Rosario + Vampire because the main girl is a vampire and the male protagonist is a weak male who doesn’t ‘get it’. But there are big differences in the 2 shows. Asahi Kuromine is the male character I spoke of, the one who doesn’t ‘get it’. But he also… Continue reading Actually I Am (Jitsu wa Watashi wa)

Overlord (Ōbārōdo)
Overlord and Gangsta were my most anticipated shows of the summer. It was really just the names. Gangsta and Overlord. It just sounds like a ton of action and asses getting kicked which they both were. The show is set in the world of Yggdrasil, an MMORPG that is being shut down. Momonga is one of… Continue reading Overlord (Ōbārōdo)
Rosario + Vampire Seasons 1 & 2 (Rozario to Banpaia)
I meant to go back and watch this earlier but for some reason I kept bypassing it. Rosario + Vampire is one of the harem animes that was done very well for a short season, well 2 short seasons. The summer 2015 season had Actually I Am which has a similar concept but they did… Continue reading Rosario + Vampire Seasons 1 & 2 (Rozario to Banpaia)

Chaos Dragon: Sekiryuu Seneki
Chaos Dragon seemed to be a very polarizing show for some reason though I have no idea why. The concept of Chaos Dragon is an intriguing one. It was based on a role playing project Red Dragon created by 5 notable character designers: Gen Urobochi (Fate/Zero), Kinoko Nasu (Kara no Kyoukai), Iduki Kougyoku (Mimizuku to… Continue reading Chaos Dragon: Sekiryuu Seneki

God Eater (Goddo Ītā)
God Eater was one of my most anticipated shows. The artstyle drew me in right away and the promo video was pretty damned good too. A few weeks ago, rumors started going around about the show only being 9 episodes. With all the delays and spacing out of the show, it’s kind of hard to… Continue reading God Eater (Goddo Ītā)
Everyday Life with Monster Girls (Monsutā Musume no Iru Nichijō)
I had no clue what to expect with this one. From the stuff I read ahead of time, the premise was a guy who had to live with a monster girl and adjust his way of life to accomodate her. But that isn’t the whole story. At that time the only pictures available for preview… Continue reading Everyday Life with Monster Girls (Monsutā Musume no Iru Nichijō)
Rokka: Braves of the Six Flowers (Rokka no Yuusha)
Rokka: Braves of the Six Flowers. I can’t believe I almost passed on this show because the name. I didn’t know anything about it until I watched the first episode. Braves of the Six Flowers doesn’t exactly sound like a fantasy adventure show but it really is. There is actually a meaning behind the name… Continue reading Rokka: Braves of the Six Flowers (Rokka no Yuusha)
