  1. Was too lazy to write anything these last two weeks... But time has come yet again to put some effort in contributing some of my time. So... "Hanasaku Iroha movie ''Home Sweet Home''", "Kimi no Iru Machi", and... that's it. Plus a lot of dropped ones.
    ''Home Sweet Home": so so... Nice animation, somewhat boring story, so so characters. It wasn't bad, but expected a little bit better.
    "Kimi no Iru Machi": OVA was better. Though animation in TV version was superior (design of characters reminded me of "Casshern Sins") everything else was lacking something. At first I was hooked up by story and characters, but later on (somewhere in the middle of the show) it become too... serious maybe. Hard to say. Well, in the end my expectations more or less were met.
    Hmm... quite boring weeks...

  2. "Man of Steel". Quite not bad, considering that I myself not much into man that wear tight clothes. Well, story was so so and actors not very my taste, but special effects... It were rather impressive. Mostly that made this movie worth my evening. I can't say that I enjoyed it much, but it wasn't very disappointing considering my negative opinion before watching it. I could rate it somewhere averagely. Though when you think about it, of all superman movies this one is yet the best.

  3. Last week list:
    dropped: "Brothers Conflict"; "Amnesia", "Fuse - Teppou Musume no Torimonochou", "Hanaukyo Maid Tai". Reasons: a lot.
    watched: "The World God Only Knows" third season (good one; much better than anticipated [better than first and much better that second season]; well, in my opinion story this time improved a lot.), "Minami-ke Natsuyasumi" (it's "Minami-ke"; nothing more can be said about it; good in all aspects.)

  4. S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series is the best. Played all original games, plus some mods. Sadly though that the last one ("Call of Pripyat") offered only three maps. That was kinda disappointing. Well, really would like to play "Народная солянка" mod from Russians (bunch new maps, weapons and stuff), sadly my PC can't handle it and my Russian knowledge is a little bit... not as good as to fully enjoy it. Anyway...


     


    "Bioshock 2". Started just yesterday. Not bad, though not so much different from first part. Not that it is bad, just that somewhat not much surprises here. Well, if to rate it now it could be somewhat 7/10. Being "Big Daddy" is cool, sadly it doesn't feel much like it. Being underwater is cool too, sadly it seems this game doesn't have automatic saves or whatever (or maybe it has something to do with "Windows Live") so will have to start playing today form beggining... again. Though this time will try to save normally.

  5. Time has come... again...

    A short note: currently I'm in love with Annie Leonhardt (from "Shingeki no Kyojin") so had to adjust my desktops accordingly. Well, she isn't as sexy as say Mikasa, but she has that strange, cold cuteness which just draws me to her.

  6. Man... What a wonderful last week. Well, it is "Shingeki no Kyojin" (aka "Attack on Titan") I'm talking about. Can't remember anything so good for past years. Such show comes only once in two years or so. Marvelous, just marvelous. Was hooked up from first episode. Each day was like a torment till evening when could sit in front of PC and watch this show. Everything in it is worth more than 10/10. Splendid animation, wonderful story, marvelous characters. And though ending was not true ending, I was satisfied how they managed to end this first season. With subtle cliffhanger, which calls for more, but will allow me to sleep peacefully till second season comes out... Be it in one, two or more years. Though hopefully, it wont be like with "Claymore". As that would be very disappointing.

     

    EDIT v1: And my last watched short "Recorder to Randoseru Mi" and dropped "Ginga Kikoutai Majestic Prince". "Recorder to Randoseru Mi" was funny, good and enjoyable. All seasons of it were good. Just sadly it was so short. Nothing to say good about "Ginga Kikoutai Majestic Prince". Thought at first it to be good, but had to drop after realizing that it wasn't my taste.

     

    EDIT v2: Quite long list of shows: "Servant x Service", Uchouten Kazoku", "Silver Spoon", "Toaru Kagaku no Railgun S", "Danganronpa the Animation" and something for desert: "Shingeki no Kyojin" manga.

    Dropped stuff: "Silver Spoon"; "Toaru Kagaku no Railgun S"; "Danganronpa the Animation". Reasons: many, so won't mention them.

    Finished stuff: "Servant x Service", "Uchouten Kazoku".
    "Servant x Service" was like clone of "Working" just with mature cast. It was in range of my expectations: funny, light romance story. Good show.
    "Uchouten Kazoku". Unexpectedly good. Didn't think that I would enjoy it as much as I did. The only slight minus was animation (weird ears really); everything else way beyond my expectations: marvelous story and great characters. Well, maybe some more romance between Yasaburou and Benten could have been shown. 10/10.

    Halted stuff: "Shingeki no Kyojin" manga. Manga is not for me, but... Was reading during weekends (two volumes per weekend). Finished at that point where ended anime. Well, can't say I disliked it much, but it was quite boring. Maybe because I just can't stand manga, or because I already knew how, when and why. Either way stopped in hopes that anime will continue (may it be year or two) as not to spoil reading further. But in worst case scenario (say in two years) if anime won't continue, will resume reading.

     

    EDIT v3:  So so my current time spent on anime...A lot of disappointments and only one averagely decent show. "Love Lab". Somewhat managed to finish it. Less than average, but with some very good scenes that just had to see it. Sometimes very funny, sometimes very so so. All in all maybe 6/10 or less. Well, at least as much, if compare to other ones which had to drop after only first episode. And there were so much of them...

  7. The last good one (won't bother to remember bad ones) - "Watashi ga Motenai no wa Dou Kangaete mo Omaera ga Warui!". Long title... Just superb show. Long time since I saw something so good. 10/10. Main character - just drop dead! Best of the best! Well, at least from previous season. Can't say bad words neither about story, neither about other supporting characters, neither about animation (though sometimes it wasn't very pleasant to my eyes; though yet again without those "hard on eyes" scenes this show might have lacked something). Wish there were second season of this one.

  8. "Blood Lad". Took some time to finish it, but finally was able to. Well, one particular game was in the way... Either way: very good show. SADLY, it isn't finished. Such a disappointment. First was saddened by only 10 episodes, then by seeing the end, as it turns out there is no end. Second season? Obviously it should be, but hell knows how it will be. Overall can give it 9.5 or so. Pluses everywhere, minus goes to end (or no end; depends on how you look at it).

    P.S. Staz + Bell would be better than Staz + Fuyumi

  9. "Dead Space 3". Can't say much. New game (for me at least) - new favorite game. As always original is better, but just can't say anything bad about this one either. Nice graphics, cool guns, sadly though still only one costume (or two? I think one...) and already in chapter 6; what's up with that?. Well, just story seems... Well who cares about that. What is the most important - to kill aliens-zombies. I like it! This game is taking all my evenings away. Even no time for anime. "Dead Space 3" is the best. At least till something better shows up.

  10. "Dead Space 3" is taking away my time. Well, not so bad, as currently only one show peeks my interest: "Blood Lad'". Good one. Almost finished with it (only four episodes left;). Sadly though that it is only 10 episodes long. Yesterday watched 6 episodes, but sadly no matter how good it is I will put it on hold. Why? Ask "Dead Space 3". Maybe it will tell why. What can I do. "Dead Space 3" > "Blood Lad". Still, I like it. Not as good as "Hataraku Maou-sama!" (comparing with it as they both are similar (at least I think so)), but are in my expectation range. So that's good.

  11. Some dropped shows and one good one. Dropped ones: can 't remember (they were so bad that disappeared from my memory minutes after deleting it). Good one: "The Garden of Words". Very nice animation, rather good story, good characters. Watched it in English dub (and liked it). Slow paced, serious stuff that made my evening better than it was. Let's give it 8/10.

  12. Another batch: "Rainbow", "Strike Witches Movie" and... and... can't remember. Either way all dropped shows. Talking about "Rainbow": too realistic, not my type of story, too rough animation. Talking about "Strike Witches": story; dunno what I expected from it; animation was good, but as disliked TV series regarding story, it was the same and with this movie.

  13. O.K. Decided to watch some "shorts". Didn't want to grab something big not to waste my evening.
    Good shows:
    "Aiura" Main minus voice acting. Didn't feel very... natural. Other than that liked it. Would have been a good 24 minutes 12 episode show. Really cute high school girls (or was it middle school?).
    "Death Billiards" Interesting story, nice animation, quite good characters. One hour or so movie would be more fitting.
    Bad shows: "Arve Rezzle" "Ryo". Nothing to say much about those. Disliked: first mainly of animation, second - of story.

  14. Week after week of nothingness. Yet again some dropped sows and nothing worth watching:
    "Rozen Maiden: Ouvertüre". Two extra episodes of talking dolls. Despite of liking show itself wasn't impressed by these two episodes. Dropped without even finishing watching first one. Dislike that "special / extra" crap.
    "Kakumeiki Valvrave". Was put on hold for time being, but sadly even after "that time being" had to dropped it. Had small hope that rest after three episodes will make me more interested in it, but sadly it wasn't like that. The only thing that interested me was design of characters; everything else was plain uninteresting. And design of robots (or whatever you call it) was horrible. Disliked it the moment saw it. Won't bother much talking about story as it as well was just bad.

  15. Summer... No time for anime... Unless maybe just to save some space in my HDD... by deleting anime. Couple of shows that were dropped: "Cyclops Shoujo Saipu" and "Hyakka Ryouran: Samurai Bride". First one just too short. Well, maybe if it were normal 24 minutes show maybe I would enjoy it, but to watch 2 minutes of something random... Well, watched couple of episodes, but just that. Second one... Didn't expect anything. So got nothing. As expected. Can't remember about first season (was it good or bad?), but second one was just beautiful animation. Everything else s*****. Wish for "Attack on Titan" to end faster, maybe then I will have something to do.
