Sword Art Online (Anime)

Hello everyone, again! So here is another anime to talk about!


(From KissAnime.com) In the near future, a Virtual Reality Massive Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (VRMMORPG) called Sword Art Online has been released where players control their avatars with their bodies using a piece of technology called Nerve Gear. One day, players discover they cannot log out, as the game creator is holding them captive unless they reach the 100th floor of the game's tower and defeat the final boss. However, if they die in the game, they die in real life. Their struggle for survival starts now...

To be honest, before deciding to watch this anime, I have encountered its name on various anime forums and facebook pages. When it had finally reached to the knowledge of my classmate who is a fellow anime lover, it hit me hard. I need to watch it already. Et viola! I fell in love of it the moment Kirito said "Link Start" in the first episode.
Other than Another, all the animes that I've watched are shoujo and fantasy and such like Kaichou wa Maid-sama and Ouran High School Host Club. Before Another, I've never even ventured into other genre other than glimpses of anime in TV here and there.
Sword Art Online is really a nice package of action, adventure, fantasy, and (of course) romance. Then there's being trapped in a game. I don't know other anime before SAO that has this kind of theme in the story but it's really good. I've also read the first volume of the light novel and Reki Kawahara made a great one. Though, I don't really want to talk about the manga because I stopped at the first few pages of the first chapter.
Then, of course, there's the art. I like the graphic effects of the anime especially when Kirito or Asuna start to fight. It makes me want to let them injure their enemies more and I always said, "Yeah, stab him! Stab that bastard!" during those fight scenes. My favorite fight scene is the one in ALO between Kirito and 
As for the characters, my favorite one would be Kirito. He kind of reminds me of Percy Jackson (if you know him) in a way because of his personality of not letting any companion die before him. I realized later that he was fourteen when he entered the game and thought that he seemed mature for someone at that age. Heck, I was not even that mature before...But we're not talking about me, right? ( --,)
Meanwhile, Kuradeel or Akihiko would probably be my first answer for least favorable character in the anime but thinking again, I thought that their roles are pretty cool and suited for them. So, my least favorable character is Suguha. Not that she didn't fulfill her role properly but more likely that I hate her role and her, period. I don't like how she felt for Kirito because it's pointless but she still do feel fr him in that way. I'm really sorry for her spite but that kind of girl just doesn't go well with me.
Overall, it's a great anime though it pains not to continue it to Gun Gale Online and beyond. I bet that would be so awesome. The only other thing that I didn't like is how at the very end of the anime, they let it mainly end with Kirito and Suguha.
So, here's my rating for this:
9/10
Nice-desu!***

Manga Review: Nosatsu Junkie (Charming Junkie)


Hello, everyone. I am going to give a manga review of the manga series that I’ve finished recently: Charming Junkie by Ryoko Fukuyama-sensei! \*(^u^)*/



[From KissManga] Naka Kaburagi has all the qualities a model can have, well, not really all. After being dumped by her senpai cause she can't smile like a flower and has a scary face, Naka is determined to get her revenge and to show her senpai that she can smile like a flower just like his female idol Umi Kajiwara. After failing her 19th audition, Naka accidentally bumps into this great Umi but wait..... What is this!? Umi is A MALE!!? To keep Naka's mouth shut, Umi gives her the job as his co-model. Always being together and sharing a dark secret, Naka's road to successful modeling has a lot of troubles to come... Especially when Naka and Umi started to feel funny whenever they are by each other's side.... 

From the moment I learned that this is gender bender(I like gender bender whether the guy is being a girl or vice versa as long as it’s not yaoi or yuri), I know I’m going to find this good. However, the moment I finished reading the first chapter of this manga, I didn’t just found it good—it captivated me. I admit that the art isn’t really that much but the effects are awesome that I don’t actually mind it anymore. I especially like the character depths the mangaka had created to each of the main characters. The entirety of it is just so great. I like it so much. The humor, drama, and especially the romance.
I like how all of the main characters were connected in some ways but different with each other. I especially love Naka and Yui’s romance that I actually cried the time Naka confessed to Yui. And that was the third time I read that chapter ‘cause I skipped when I got bored…twice. Hehe~  (- -,) Well, it had no sense at all since I skipped from chapter two to seventy-something. But when I saw how they both struggled their love for each other—in around seventy chapters!—and still doubting the other person’s feeling for them and then they knew, I cried. And that was the second time I cried because of a manga.
Naka is probably the main clown of the story especially because of how she is but there’s also Tsutsumi and Yui. I like her a lot since from being so bad at modelling, she became good and then better at it slowly. It really shows how much she tried hard to become a model and that goal started with that sempai of hers.
My favorite female character overall, though, is Ichigo because of how she sees more than the picture could tell most of the time which was what Chihiro fell for her. My favorite male character is Yui. I really like stubborn male characters more than female ones because I find them cute. Yui being a stubborn ore-sama most of the time and then becoming dead serious when it comes to Naka is really heart-throbbing. I like it most when he attacks Naka sneakily. (hee~) And he really is determined to make his dream come true which is really awesome and cool. \\(>u<)//
I love the Chihiro-Ichigo pairing a lot. It’s too bad they didn’t get to have the spotlight for too long. It will really be nice if it has a sequel or extra with them as the main character.

Overall, I really love this manga. So, my rate for this is:

SO AWESOME!!!
I don't really wanna talk about what I'm doing today~~ so I'm not putting it here... :3

Seiyuu Ka-! (Manga Series Review)


Hello, let’s have another manga review! This time it’s the recently completed manga series that has been very loved by lots of shoujo readers.

Jan ja ja jaaa~~~n!! The manga, Seiyuu ka-! by Minami Maki-sensei.



(From JShoujo) Kino Hime is a fifteen year old girl who had just started her first year in a high school for voice actors [seiyuu] called Hiiragi Academy. She dreams of becoming the voice of the main character in one of the most popular series in Japan, “Magic Fighter Lovely Blazers”. The academy is the number one school which allows students to make their voice acting debuts and also includes other departments such as general education, sports, music, acting and art.
Of course this academy is full of celebrities, too. Two of Hime’s upperclassmen are none other than the two rising idols of the group “Idol Unit AQUA”, as well as popular rising star in voice acting named Kudou Senri.
But Hime’s dream to be a successful voice actress is hard to fulfil. Her voice is not really suitable for a voice actress and her new classmate Kudou Senri doesn’t waste time in pointing that out. Will Hime prove everybody, especially Senri, what she is capable of despite the first appearance?

Well, to start…this is a really nice manga. I really like the energy that it had on the early volumes of the mangas, especially Hime’s energy. It was really too bad that the later volumes didn’t have that much energy as the earlier ones.
The art is okay and I really like the inking of the later volumes. My most favorite character in terms of art and personality is definitely Kino Hime. Being able to be a girl and a boy at the same time is really cool and her easy-going and cheerful attitude is almost contagious.
Although there were a lot of romantic moments between Hime and Mizuki, I was very disappointed to see that the story has finished without any kiss between Senri and Hime. But then again, it’s not really focusing on romance, right?

The ending is very unsatisfying and I didn’t get why the author had to end it that way. 


Overall, I am giving this manga this rating:


REVIEW:
Hmm...S'okay.
