BTOOM! - Review

Genre: Action / Science-Fiction / Psychological Thriller
No. of Episodes: 12
Rate: 7.5/10

Expectations for this anime were low, mainly because I saw big boobs and it looked like Ecchi anime. I thought the anime will have quite good story yet contain lots of fan service such as anime 'Highschool of the Dead'. Certainly, I was mistaken! The characters are very well developed and they have their unique back story. The story and the fights against each other are very intense. During a certain fight you may loose a hope but they you can see the true winner. The animation is good which is important as the characters are fighting each other and there are lots of explosions. The music is amazing and I love the soundtracks. Certainly, the anime is worth checking out yet it is not FINISHED. Actuallly, it does not explain most of the important information that we should know as an audience.

Plot:
Ryota Sakamoto is the best player of BTOOM! game. He is a young, unemployed man who wastes his life by closing himself in a room and playing games all day. One day Ryouta wakes up in a tropical island without remembering how. The only thing that he has with him is his bag and unknown bag filled with cubes. With interest, he presses the cube and it started counting from '10'. In a few seconds he realise that it is a 'Timer' bomb and throws away. Afterwards, he accidentaly meets a guy and wants to talk to him to know what the hell is happening here. Suddenly, the guy attacks witout no hesitation using bombs. Ryouta during the fight realises that the bombs that they use are the same as in BTOOM game! That means that he is in real-life game and his life is in danger.

Akame ga Kill - Review

Genre: Adventure / Fantasy / Action
No. of episodes: 24
My rate: 9/10

Everytime new epsiode came out, I straight away took my earphones and click on the link. There were lots of suprises awaiting like unexpected twists, new characters introduced, followed by lots of deaths T^T I got excited and I cried. The plot is extremely interesting as well as the characters, both in the 'bad' side and 'good'. However, both sides may be called 'bad' as to restore peace and happiness in the capital, Night Raid needed to kill authotities. By the way, there was a bloodshed and the fights were extremelly intriguing, keeping tension as you say to yourself - 'Please don't let this character die!'.

Plot:
A warrior called Tatsumi travels to the capital to earn money for his village which lives in poverty. Two of his childhood friends accompanies him yet they went seperate ways. When he reaches his destination, the capital does not reaches his expectations. He fails to join the army, he is robbed and his two childhood friends that accompanied him died. Later he is kidnapped by organisation called Night Raid which are wanted dead by the capital. However, he realises that Night Raid is working for the good of citizens and is not how the capital describes them. Night Raid members kill the authorites who are responsible to the mess in the capital which makes the citizens live in poverty. The main issue is the Prime Minister, who persuades and changes the king of the capital who is just a child and his puppets With his influence, no one can live happily. That is why Tatsumi decided to be the assassin in Night Raid.

Tokyo Ghoul - Review

Genre: Action / Drama / Horror / Supernatural
No. of episodes: 12
My Rate: 8.5/10

Cannibalism. That's one word that can describe this anime. I actually enjoyed watching as it hit me right in the feels. It's not like all Ghouls like to eat people! All they wish for is to have a normal life and be accepted into the society, however all 'normal' people are against ghouls, that's why they have to hide and wear masks. The opening breaks my heart as it seem like the person singing is in pain especially at the beginning. Perfect Choice of Song!! In addition they can't enjoy food and can only survive while eating human flesh. Let's move to the graphics - beautful and amazing, however why did they censored everything?? Sometimes you don't actually see what's happening 'cause whole screen is black!!

Plot:
Kaneki Ken is a normal college student who has a great passion towards books. One day, in a coffee shop called Anteiku he meets beautiful, purpled haired women - Rize. Kaneki wents on the date with her and realises that he shares the same interest as her. At the end of the day, when they walked back home, she attacks him. Powerless Kaneki, realises that she's a ghoul - a human-like person who lives by eating human flesh. Suprisely, Kaneki survives event though he nearly got eaten and was crushed by falling platform along with Rize. Kaneki survived as Rize's organs were transplanted to him. Unfortunately, he became a one-eye ghoul, unable to control himself. Kaneki doesn't want to be a ghoul and eat people but how can he survive?

Soul Eater Not! - Review

Genre: Fantasy / Comedy / Action / Supernatural
No. of episodes: 12
My Rate: 6/10

A spin-off of the original Soul Eater which spins around 3 girls which get more annoying each episode in totally different atmosphere. Where's the halloween theme? The darkness? The mystery? It concentrates on friendship, bravery, cuteness and girl-love. From zero to hero. At least the graphics are brilliant and the original characters sometimes appear on the screen! Plus both ending and opening were amazing. A bit of dissappointment however I'm just a big fan of Soul Eater so I keep watching to find something for myself. I mostly felt like watching those 'magical girls' anime, and nearly know what's going to happen. When looking at this anime seperately (without comparing to S.E.) that's what you would expect from an average yuri-typed magical girl anime about friendship........

Plot:
The story concentrates on a brand new character, Tsugumi Harudori, who one day realised that she's a weapon. She joined Shibusen and met 2 girls - Meme Tatane and Anya Hepburn -who are miesters. Three of the girls joined the NOT (Normally Overcome Target) class, where they learn how to use and control their power. The characters of original series are in EAT class (Especially Advanced Talent) which is complete opposite. Tsugumi needs to pick her meisters and learn how to control her power as a weapon. In addition there is trouble coming right ahead.......

Sword Art Online - Review

Genre: Action / Adventure / Romance
No. of episodes: 25
My Rate: 8/10

One of the most popular anime which is a pure brilliance. Being stuck in a heartless game? Players came to play not to die in both worlds. I had a negative opinion at some episodes and how the story line have went from third episode on. Big entrence yet the rest going slow and without meaning as a character is introduced and then in different ways dissappears from the anime. Therefore it seemed lika a bunch of fillers and no sign of the plot continuing. The story began dramatic and horrific and in the middle it got even worse. Worth watching til the end? Certainaly YES!

Plot:
Sword Art Online as a massive Virtual Reality Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game that was available to play in November 2022. Yet before hand there was a closed-beta released where only chosen 1,000 players could try it out. One of them was our protagonist 'Kirito'.  Every player logged in on the first try, experiencing beautiful virtual world. To access they needed the NerveGear which scans player's body and stimulates the their five senses so they are able to control the awatar using their mind. Unfortunately the players realised that 'log-out' button disappeared and then the creater of the game, Akihiko Kayaba, announced that the players need to defeat bosses and pass all 100 floors. If they die in SAO, they will die in the reality. The game of survival starts now.........

Elfen Lied - Review

Genre: Action / Drama / Horror / Romance / Physchological Thriller
No. of episodes: 13
My Rate: 9/10

The opening from the beginning makes me feel nostalagic and sad - I don't know why. I was expecting just an anime that concentrates on blood and loose body parts as I experienced lots of disappointment when watching anime with my high expectations. Yet, the plot is truly amazing! I watched all episodes in one go with tears in my eyes. Maybe there's a bit of nudity and boobs (which I'm not a fan of) from time to time but I don't mind! However if you can't stand flying body parts or don't like nudity I will recommend you to think before watching.

Plot:
Story begins when pink-haired girl with horns called Lucy (subject of experiments) escapes from a laboratory situated beside the seacoast of Kamakura. She escaped by killing all the guards and other people who stand in her way using her suprnatural powers, additional yet invisible hands. When escaping her head was hurt as a result of sniper bullet. She is later found on the beach by two students Yuka and Kouta. HoweverLucy got amnesia and became a sweet little girl insted of a sadistic monster. She can only say one word - "Nyu". Students toke her home, yet the members of the laboratory are trying to get her - alive or not! Later is found that Lucy is a 'Diclonius', a human but with little horns on the head, but is able to control 'vectors' - arms that come from the back that can became powerful weaapons.

Guilty Crown - Review

Genre: Mecha / Action / S-F / Fantasy
No. of episodes: 22
My rate: 7/10

This anime really suprised me! It wasn't boring and there's no need to force yourself to watch it. However, I like the anime but I don't like how the anime went in th middle of the series and I got annoys with one  character. The plot was really interesting, same as the fighting scenes and I very like the concept of the apocalypse.

Plot:
The story takes place in Tokio in 2039. Ten years before that an apocalypse started by a unknown virus. People call this day - 'Lost Christmas'. When the apocalypse started, an organisation called GHQ started to control. Japan. A girl called Inori Yuzurihe stealed a secret weapon as her mission was to gave it to 'Gai'. Unfotunately, she got caught cause of her bad wounds. Instead of 'Gai' - the leader of an organisation against the GHQ called 'Undertaker' - having a secret weapon, Shu Ouma, 17-year old student got it. Now he can take out weapons from people called Voids.

Black★Rock Shooter - Review

Genre: Science Fantasy / Drama / Action  
No. of episodes: 8 episodes
My rate: 7/10

Short anime about friendship and pain within the heart. Do you think that is just a short anime about hishschool girls problems? No. The story takes in a normal world and in a completely different universe! Some people don't understand this anime but I understand it like this:

Anime is about a friendships and how the girls can get hurt by their friends. Two secondary school girls Mato Kuroi and Yuu Kotari are best friends. Mato wants to make a new friendship with other girl that's called Yomi Takanashi. She gets very jealeous about the friendship that Mato and Yuu has.
There is also an alternative world in which the main characters have their other  character, which are fighting with each other brutally. But in the real world they are friends.

I liked this anime as I personally experienced problems with friendship.

Bobobo-bobo bobo-bobo - Review

Genre: Comedy / Parody / Action 
No. of episodes: 76 episodes
My rate: 9/10 

I think you never saw something like this xD Anime is confusing and wierd. . . I don't know how to describe it, but for me is really funny and extraordinary. I haven't watch all episodes because so of them don't work for me :( but all of them aer really funny. (This is my opinion about this anime. Many people say that this anime is a sh*t but I don't think so >:( )

 It is about a man called Bobobo that uses his nose hair - 'Fist of the Nose Hair' - to fight with Chrome Dome Empire (and all other people who are supporting them).  Chrome Dome Empire are people that take innocent people and shave their hair (so they become bold). Pink haired girl called Beauty has been attacked by one of them but at least Bobobo has saved her. After this she decided to join him and they're having adventure :D

I know this may sound ridiculous but that is what anime is about :)
