Huh. Could've sworn she was someone else. Seeing as how I've only seen the first ep. of Vividred Operation, I doubt I've seen her.
That's sort of what I felt like going through what I have of the first season. It wasn't bad, but everything seemed really slow and straightforward. At least you could pick it up from time to time due to the episodic nature. From clips and what I've seen/heard of the second and third seasons I figured it would get more interesting, and fall more into the kind of show I would like, so that's all good to hear. I just have to get around to finishing up season 1 when I get the time.:)
I keep seeing you on the forums and I can't for the life of me figure out who is in your forum avatar or what anime they are from.
Nice list btw. I keep trying to finish the first season of Hell Girl, but either forget or get sidetracked by other things on my list.How do the next two seasons compare to the first?
Well, it looks like you got the thing with Akise right! Looks like he's a really smart guy, if he could predict how would the coins go!
I've just seen the latest episodes too, and I have to say they really satisfied me - especially episode 11. I haven't thought the detective could betray Yuno and Yukkii, but I guess everyone has their problems. I really enjoyed the parts with Uryuu Minene too. In the first episodes I had no feelings about her, but now I'm starting to like her more and more. I guess this show just gets better and better!
I'm thinking about reading the manga (since I've heard it's really good too), but then, I'm a little worried that - after I read what happens next - I won't enjoy watching the series as much as I used to... I guess the solution is to read and watch simultaneously!
Yes, "Märchen" is a really great album! I thought it's not possible, but it still grows on me more and more with every listen ;-) And the live concert is wonderful, too! Before the DVD came out, "Märchen" was on the second place on my favourite albums list (the first place belonged to "Elysion"), but after watching the live it got the first place! If you haven't seen it yet, I highly recommend you to do it! ^^;;
Well, at first I started listening to Cécile Corbel only because I loved some of her Arrietty songs, but the whole soundtrack really grows on you with time! Now I'm in love with every single piece from that album. There are both happy and sad songs, the ones that make you think about all good things, and the ones that make you reminiscence about the past... I hope I'm making sense ;-)
I've just looked at your anime list and I can see you've given a very high rating to "Shiki"! I really liked these series too, it was exactly what I've been looking for. It really gives justice to the oldschool vampires, and the characters were really wonderful - not to forget about the soundtrack, of course!
Ikr. c: & THANK YOU. One of my old friends gave like Higurashi Kira & Rosario + Vampire a 10, and I'm sitting here thinking ".. really?" And ifkr. I normally just go by what the captions say under the number (i.e 10 - Masterpiece etc.)
I enjoyed Dog Days a lot, too! I really liked the characters designs and the graphics in overall. The colors were so bright and everything looked so cute! The story was pretty good, and the relations between characters were interesting either. The only thing that surprised me was the scene when
Millhiore told Cinque she loves him. I know they had fun together, but I didn't really expect that.
. Anyways, I'm waiting for the next season, and I hope it'll be as good as the first one!
I haven't read the Mirai Nikki manga too, but as for now the series are getting better with each episode. At the beginning I've been only worried if they'll have enough material for 24 episodes, since they only used 2-3 episodes for each of diary holders, but I guess they still have many characters left. I'm wondering what are they going to do with the detective and Uryuu Minene... and of course with Yuno! After all, there's only one winner in this game...
I really enjoyed the last - 8th - episode (I don't know if you've already seen it?).
I have to say I haven't really expected the ending... Now they have Yukiteru's diary, they can do anything they want with him. I also liked the new character, Akise Aru. He such an interesting character, I think he's a complete opposite of Yukiteru!
Sound Horizon is a great band, I've been keen on their music for 1,5 year already, and the longer I'm listening to them, the longer I love their songs!
Since you said you're enjoying Shikata Akiko's instrumental music, I wonder if you've heard Cécile Corbel's Karigurashi no Arrietty soundtrack? I think you may like some of her songs. I especially like "Arrietty's Song" and "Sho's Waltz" from her. Her music is one of the main reasons I consider Karigurashi my favourite Ghibli movie.
Well, now that I look at my comment, I think I've written a little too much... I hope it won't scare nor bore you too much! ^^;;
Hello, thanks for your comment!
Your list is very good too, we have pretty similiar ratings in many series! And you've also added Madoka and Dog Days to your favourites, these were some wonderful series! I can also see you're watching Mirai Nikki too, how are you enjoying it so far?
I've first heard Shikata Akiko doing the Umineko no Naku Koro ni opening, then I felt in love with her other songs. Lately I'm especially enjoying her earlier works, like the "Haikyo to Rakuen" and "Navigatoria" albums :)
