(//∇//) Ahhhh my eyes.... What did I get myself into? Do read the reviews before watching this. It's definitely missing an ecchi tag. Despite this, all the characters are funny and have a great dynamic.
✦ 2nd Anime:Akuma no Riddle
[Start date: June 16|| End date: June 22]
Tokaku's a pretty cool assasin! It's great to see how she vowed to protect Haru, and you see that dynamic unfold through the series. Sometimes the series goes a little bit off track, and you don't feel as connected to the various deaths that occur. Otherwise, enjoyable~
✦ 3rd Anime:Nurarihyon no Mago
[Start date: June 22|| End date: June 28]
Has a large cast of characters that you become invested in early on. But sometimes, the plot drags a bit too much, and it really only becomes engaging near the end.
✦ 4th Anime:Ore Monogatari!!
[Start date: June 11|| End date: June 29]
Despite what you might think at first glance, Ore Monogatari's Takeo and Rinko have a really good dynamic~ it's quite a wholesome story!

This has the genre of comedy and romance but I think they forgot to add ecchi to it. >.< The story is the day to day lives of perverted novelists and illustrators, a cute little "step-brother", an editor at his wits end and those that surround them. I was a little thrown off by the first 5 minutes of the first episode and was questioning why I was watching it, but it ended up being a good one to watch for a change of pace. Of course it ended up in the air with no word on a 2nd season.
✦ 2nd Anime:Hidan no Aria [Start date: 6/6 || End date: 6/6]
I'm just going to get this out of the way now. In the English dub version, every time they said "Butei", all I could hear in my head is "Booty". Ok, so continuing on. Take a bunch of high school students and teach them the ways of becoming mercenaries who have just as much if not more power than police and government agencies so they can fight crime. Oh and don't forget to give the main character his own harem. That basically sums it up. I haven't watched season 2 yet, but I already know it's not a continuation which is a shame. However, I'm just going to go with Aria and Kinji end up together.
✦ 3rd Anime:Grancrest Senki [Start date: 6/7 || End date: 6/9]
Don't start liking any of the characters because they are dying constantly in this. Yea most, but not all, of them are side characters but as soon as you start liking them, they are killed off. At least you get a happy ending even tho some characters were stupid the entire series. Alexis needed to man up sooner and Marrine needed to quit being an idiot. A lot of bloodshed could have been avoided if people would have just spoken, but then we wouldn't have had a series. No big surprise on who the real enemy was. I was hoping that either Theo and Siluca or Alexis and Marrine would have had a baby in the end to signify the beginning of the new era.
Junichirou is an otaku and a genius physicist. He gets bored of science and become a shut in focusing on his anime/manga blog. With some "persuasion" from his sister he very reluctantly becomes a very unorthodox teacher. In his own way he helps his troubled students. Although I think he took it a little too far with one when he basically forced them to out themselves. Only in anime will it work out with a happy ending. The ending leaves room for more but of course it won't continue and with the manga translations stalled, guess this is just another one where I don't get to see the ending.
The mini reviews are more my opinion on the anime. Of course there will be spoilers so read at your own risk.
Can I have the Grancrest Senki completed banner? ty!
