Ookami Shoujo to Kuro Ouji - Review

Genre: Slice of Life / Romance / Comedy
No. of Episodes: 12
My Rate: 9/10

This shoujo anime was surpisely good. At first I thought that the main female character will be extremelly annoying and stupid (as I experience this in Brother Conflict and Diabolik Lovers). Yes, she was a bit at the start and she is a bit of an idiot but as the anime progresses, there is a character development. You see characters slowely changing which may be difficult to achieve in short series. Overall, character are quite well written; we have a sadistic 'prince' and his 'victim'. It develops feelings and make you cry. It is difficult  to notice the change as the prince behaviour is twisted which makes it actually really entertaining. The graphics are alright as at first I had a problem with main female's huge, eye-catching eyes and then the appearance of her 'friends'. However, in short amount of time, I got used to it and properly  enjoyed the whole show. This anime cannot be missed as the plot is unique for me as we atcually never see a guy torturing a girl and threat her like trash. It does not look like a beautiful romance, doesn't it?

Plot: 

Erika Shinohara at the start of her first year in High School, found difficult to fit in beacuse of her late arrival, everybody was already in groups. However, she gets to know two girls in her class which only talk about their older boyfriends, make up and fashion. To fit in, Erika lies about a boyfriend that she do not have. The girls would like a proof so Erika takes a picture of a handsome, random guy on the street that looks like a model. Back in school, she met her 'friends' again and with proudness, shows them the photo. The girls were shocked. Unfortunately, later on Erika realises that the guy she photographed goes to the same school! To avoid her lie being revealed she talks to the guy. While they talk, the guys kindly agrees to pretend to be her boyfriend. Erika becames happy but not for long as the guy's personality dramatically changes to a sadistic prince that uses her like a dog.

Daily Lives of Highschool Boys - Review

Genre: Comedy / Slice of Life
No. of Episodes: 12
My Rate: 9/10

It is one of the most craziest and hilarious anime that I ever watched. It is unique, clever and ultra-interesting and with this combination it makes you watch it on one or two nights. Every episode is divided into stories that are happening to highschool boys. Of course, it shows their 'normal' life (if that is what you want to call it XD), and their deep, thoughtful conversations and extremely awkward situations. Are you bored of anime with lots of girls and harems? This anime gives us a different look and takes another, completely different direction to 'analyse' boy's brains and deep thoughts. Maybe the graphics/drawing style are not beautiful and 'out-of-this world', but in here the plot and the characters count.

Plot:
The story mainly circulates around three boys - Tadakuni, Hidenori and Yoshitake, however it also around their classmates and other students from their school. They attend to boy-school-only and have no knowledge about girls. Nearly all of them know girls as brutal and violent from experience with their own or other's sisters. Overall, the boys have weird and even deep thoughts about different topics. As well as that, during their free time, they role-play video games, fight and do what boys do.
