Yeah once again I'm here and ready to kind of maybe sort of share what I think
To start off with, I'm extremely glad about the Anime adaption and it was done in a most astounding way.
The impression the Anime gave me,
The whole adaption managed to capture some of the most touching, funny and cute moments, and that as well, was overall astounding. Most of us here have all watched a lot of Shounen-ai (At least I'm pretty sure most of us have) And this one gets my number one spot as well as my "Favourite Anime of the year"
As the Anime aired, I always chose to
...
watch the episodes on friday evenings. That goes for all the airing anime series that I have dedicated everything to. It felt so good being back into this whole "looking forward" thing. It always takes over and I feel like I live through each week thinking about the anime that I'm watching as it airs. Literally, I get SO obsessed with them that it's the ONLY thing I think about. But what happens once it's done airing? I feel as if something just all of the sudden left and that I need to find a new series to obsess about, and fast, however, nothing can replace what Given has "given" me. I told myself "Enjoy your fridays while you can, because the series will be done before you know it" And I was right. But hey, that's how things goes.
The anime, Given, captivated me from day one. Each episode had me thinking "This could've been a real life story.." Yes, it's actually realistic. The story gives us an insight in what it is like to lose someone or something, and not being able to express oneself. It is but one of the most painful things to go through. Overall, music helps us express ourselves. I'd in fact say that music is all about expressing oneself and letting out emotions that we may not be able to express in any other way.
As for the story,
The story is amazing. The conflicts, the drama, the funny moments, the sad moments, all of it. The background story between the characters, the relationships that developed from each episode. It was amazing. I don't know what else to say, just amazing and I'd 10/10 watch the Given Anime adaption again.
The music,
Boy, the music. The artists did an AMAZING job, it was mindblowing. The songs, the instrumental music, everything about it was legit perfect. Good job on that one I say, insane stuff.
The characters,
Each character is unique and especially the four main characters. They all play an instrument and they are all needed in the group in order for everything to work out. They are all cute in their own way, along with being handsome and pretty. They are different, very different from each other but yes, that might be why they get along so well.
The art,
Amazing. Beautiful. Detailed. Simply beautiful
Overall,
I enjoyed it tons and I will no doubt miss it and having a notification popping up saying that a new episode of Given has been released. But I enjoyed the anime and that's one thing that will never change.
Thank you for bringing me yet another emotional but beautiful story, I'm indescribably grateful, so thank you, Given.
10/10

What can I say, I love Idolish7 and especially the group known as Trigger.
That's the only reason I needed to watch this and boy it's amazing.
I wasn't sure if this was after the first season of Idolish7 ended or not.
It turns out it is both. We get some stories about Trigger and their first meeting, as well as getting a good look at how things are for the groups now.
The story didn't disappoint me, but then again, neither has anything associated with Idolish7 ever done. It lives up to my expectations and it's similar to the anime we know. This could as well be
...
a part of a second season, that's how well made Vibrato was.
The art was beautiful as always.
We heard a lot of the songs from the anime Idolish7 and I love them.
I was shown a new perspective of things after watching the first couple of episodes.
The way people connect when they dance and sing is just beautiful and they sure show it as well.
A lot of the characters from the original story took part in Vibrato.
Trigger had a lot scenes for themselves, but we also got to see a lot of Idolish7.
Overall I enjoyed this a lot and it was well made in every way.
Even now, Trigger and Idolish7 still has as hard a time they had in the original story. It was a fantastic experience watching how Trigger grew and became one despite the many flaws they had to go through. That goes for Idolish7.
9/1O I'd say.
If you're a fan of Idolish7 then this is most likely to keep you entertained like it did me.
Thank you for making this a part of the Idolish7 anime!

Well once again I'm here only seconds after finishing this season.
As always, I spot the anime and it takes me a long time just to start up on it, in this case, I had already watched the first episode of the first season in dubbed.
That wasn't impressive enough for me.
After a couple of years, I came back and watched the series in their native language.
Story:
This season of Hakkenden took me on another emotional ride.
To start off with, I love how Shino and Sousuke's trust in each other were put to the test and the result did not fail to surprise me. We
...
followed the main characters around several places in the world they live in, and they helped out many people they met on their path.
I must say that some of the people they encounter had a fate that I didn't expect to see. Another emotional point, unlike the first season, this one had episodes that ended in unexpected and sad ways, tragic, nonetheless.
It felt though as if the last episode got a bit hasty, finishing the story and all and I would've liked to see a longer fight and a more dramatic ending perhaps.
Art:
I love every single bit about the art, so beautiful.
There were so many details in everything, and more specific, the hair and eyes of each character.
Very detailed and they were all unique.
The landscape was just as beautiful and overall, this art style will always remain as one of my favourites.
(A bonus is the beautiful young men)
Sound:
Nice sound and the voice actors did one amazing job.
The ending song though, I could cry over and over because of how emotional it is.
All of the scenes there were shown in it, worked well with the song.
(SPOILER: The song and clips used all pointed towards Ao's feelings about Shino and Sousuke together, that was emotional. It hit me like a bus, that's how emotionally attached I've become to that ending song, and to Ao as well.)
Character:
All of the main characters are unique and has their own stories to tell.
Once again, Shino and Sousuke are the ones I wanted to know more about. Over time, more things were revealed about each character. I enjoy reading into stuff and pointing out details although there wasn't much to point out here.
They all have unique powers and prove to be strong, some individually strong, and other characters, not so much.
Overall:
It took me two days to watch the season from start to finish while trying to save episodes so that they may last longer but that simply did not work. That's how attached I got to it, unlike the first season that took me a week to finish because it was easy to save the episodes a bit.
This season was the one that hit me the hardest in the feels and the entertainment overall.
Some episode endings did leave me a bit in the dark but it wasn't 'impossible' to figure out what the story we were left with was.
Of course, this anime surprised me like most of the anime I've written a review for has.
I took a strong liking to Shino, Sousuke and Ao and they'll always be my favorite characters of this anime.
The anime ended without many questions left to ask so that's good.
I wouldn't mind a new season of Hakkenden but it probably won't be happening anytime soon since the release of this season was a pretty long time ago.
Overall 8/10

Like many other reviews for IDOLiSH7, they often state that this anime is very different from your regular Idol anime.
I thought I'd check it out myself just to make sure that it really is different from the Idol anime genre we know of.
All I can say is: Yes, that's true.
The anime shows us how difficult it really is, starting out small and trying to overcome the odds. There's no miracle, you only get through this if you're tough, and that can be very difficult to handle if you're a group of seven young and beautiful men.
These guys all have their own unique personalities and
...
different upbringings, and must learn how to cooperate with each other despite the huge differences.
IDOLiSH7 had it rough. But their music reached out to the fans they performed in front of. Personally, it reached out to me, too.
It's the first Idol anime I've watched where I enjoyed the episodes from start to finish and I had to try and save the episodes so that I could enjoy the anime over time but that was very difficult.
I read that this anime has adapted from a game that has been out a long while by now, which is why the stage animations were made 3D rather than your usual 2D animations. That was probably the only thing I didn't get used to.
The music is amazing, some of the best I've heard in fact, and each song has so much meaning to it and some of them really got me good on the emotional side.
I enjoyed IDOLiSH7 from start to finish. In my opinion, it's far from B-Project and other Idol anime.
The story once again, leaves me a bunch of questions that I would've loved to have answers to, but since IDOLiSH7 is getting a sequel, I hope more secrets and unexpected plots will be taking place.
Amazing story with beautiful guys.

Once again I'm left with a bunch of thoughts and unsolved mysteries.
I have stumbled upon Makai Ouji twice before deciding to watch it.
What can I say, third time is the charm.
This is one of the first anime I've watched where magic plays a big role.
I've never been much into that sort of stuff but Makai, that's a different tale.
I always go for the Shounen-Ai and things alike. Makai Ouji Was no disappointment.
The story was a bit repetitive despite there being only 12 episodes.
But personally, I don't mind that it's repetitive as long as I get to uncover more and more
...
mysteries and answers along the way.
The last episode felt too hasty and in fact, there were even more mysteries popping up in the end and I won't be able to solve.
Nonetheless, I got attached to this anime quickly due to the comedy and the pupils of the school, and last but not least, the main character himself.
The past with the the main character and his name was captivating.
For the first time I felt like there was a different but very strong connection to the family generation of the main character.
The characters were unique and beautiful in their own way.
Of course I would've liked so know more about William and his ancestor.
Did I enjoy the anime? Yes I did.
Each episode lead me to watching the next one and before I knew it, it was over.
The anime could use a second season, to explain the unanswered questions that episode 12 left me.
-Spoiler incoming-
I'd like to know if the main character forgot specific things, just like all the other pupil characters from the school did.
Overall, I give this anime 8.3
Surprisingly better than I had expected.

I'm not a big fan of inhuman creatures, mostly because they usually play a role where they lack sympathy for other creatures.
Parasyte gave me a different point of view, and a good one at that.
I often glance over images of anime series, in case I have checked them out before.
This anime is no different at that, and oddly enough I always tried to look away when images popped up from this anime.
Mostly because I thought most of the images were gross looking.
But suddenly I got curious when I again, stumbled upon the Parasyte anime and then decided to try watching the first
...
episode.
Instantly, I was drawn to the anime. Mostly because I had a need of watching something new and perhaps a bit different from what I'm used to.
I really like it when an episode ends with a twist and gives me the reactions: "oh my god" or "whaaaat?"
Each and every episode in Parasyte ends like this.
What really caught my attention was how the two main characters went through some intense development. Speaking of their personalities and their way of handling a difficult situation.
Getting used to all the gore and gross looking creatures didn't take as long as I thought it would, in fact, it took two episodes before I got used to it.
That's a relief from my side.
One thing that I really would like to point out is the details on the anime characters faces as they change.
If there is a person that has a problem with taking care of themselves and ends up drinking and similar things, their faces will be turning pale and they will be looking older than what they actually are.
That's realistic of course and it's indeed an awesome detail to add.
I enjoyed watching how the main characters trust in each other started to change.
In fact, they didn't trust each other at all in the beginning. I even started to think that things would never really change for the two of them.
Back to what I wrote at the top of the review, about how my point of view changed, regarding the unknown species, a parasyte in this case.
Through the first episodes, we were given the impression that the parasytes are brutal creatures that does nothing but kill humans without any second thought.
All of the parasytes I got to see were like this.
They are fast learners though. The main character quickly learned how to communicate with the human it had tried to take over at first. It learned how to communicate in words within one single night.
Well, I don't know if they at some point had their own personality but the main character was emotionless but a curious one. When it came up with a bunch of strategies it impressed me once again.
As these parasytes started evolving and changing into a different direction than what I thought possible, they all became confused.
They started asking themselves: What are we? Why are we here?
"We eat meat in order to survive and so do you humans. In the end, it's all just instincts that tells us how to survive."
Anything out of the ordinary has always frightened mankind. No, not just mankind but every specie we know of.
These Parasytes that were slowly popping up everywhere around humans, became rather curious on what purpose each creature has on this planet.
Some of them started observing humans rather than attacking them on sight.
"We humans protect other species because we feel alone. We protect the environment because we don't wanna go extinct. Look inside the human heart and all you'll find is self preservation"
I'm glad I watched the anime, I feel like the moral contains so much truth to it and it reminded me of how mysterious everything in the universe is.
How much we need to explore, and how much we won't ever be able to reach.
9/10

SPOILER----
I have never felt so anxious waiting for an episode, ever. After episode 22, I knew it was all about to end and it was getting more and more sad by the minute. Watching a character evolving the way Eiji and Ash did, and watching their relationship grow in a world with such savage environments, I grew to love those two, so much. Every moment they had together made me feel all warm and fuzzy. I admit, I didn't watch the anime from the first episode, but from after episode 7 had just been aired. I saw a thumbnail on youtube with the scene of
...
Ash kissing Eiji, that made me want to try watching the anime in the first place.
I was very very sceptical thinking "Man I don't like the art, it's so different from the anime art I know" but I quickly learned to accept that, and in time, I started to love the art.
It was realistic in the way that the characters eyes were more or less, a normal size, which I don't see often in anime these days.
Getting to know each character and their names wasn't as confusing as I thought it would be, Ash and Eiji were unique names that I never knew of, back then. The way I was able to recognise Ash's name was each time a character in the anime said his name. "Asshu" which each time reminded me of "achoo" as in a sneeze. That fact, made me say "bless you" out loud, each time someone said Ash's name.
After Ash's fight with Arthur, he was brought to the hospital. After that episode I was just so curious about what would happen next, and so, I read the manga. And I'm stating that I'm not a good reader but it seems like a manga with pictures and short texts, made things easier for me. I was getting more and more into the manga so I continued. Suddenly, I was watching Eiji and Ibe leaving N.Y again, and Ash was reading the letter from Eiji. When I saw that Ash let his guard down I was thinking "Ah he's been stabbed dozens of times, he'll get it fixed" But did he though? Did he actually get it fixed? Why didn't he?
From that moment I prayed that the anime wouldn't turn out like the manga did because that would be even more painful, watching the character I love, sitting there with blood and tears all over the letter.
As the anime continued, I was quickly learning that "Oh wow.. They're going for the manga.." due to how precise and familiar each scene was. But that didn't stop me from looking forward to each episode, I couldn't wait, each day was so long but the episode, so short. It felt like I was getting so obsessed with the anime that nothing else really mattered but getting through the week to watch the next episode. That was nothing new for me, getting obsessed with something and wanting to praise it like I would God until it's over.
Although, after episode 22, I didn't look forward to the next episodes no more, I knew what was coming. I knew I was gonna bawl, I knew I'd need buckets for my tears. I've fallen completely in love with Ash and his beautiful person. And fallen even more in love with his relationship with Eiji, each bromance moment got me all excited and it was such a nice feeling.
That relationship is the most beautiful thing I've seen, ever. I didn't know that an anime could be this touching to someone like me. And especially when I think about how sceptical I was when watching the first episodes of the anime.
Ash fascinated me on so many points. A beautiful young man with the mind of a supercomputer, fangs and claws as sharp as a knife, and at first, a cold blooded killer who showed no emotion nor remorse.
Eiji, the other main character, just about a young year older than Ash, is a peaceful and observant person, whose aura could affect even the most cold blooded killer. That peaceful and carefree, cheerful and always smiling person, affected Ash in so many ways. That's so beautiful. I can't describe it any better than 'beautiful'.
At first, I really disliked the villains, especially Yut, for kidnapping Eiji like he did, and forcing Shorter to do the work of betraying Ash. But the worst thing was when he ordered some of Sing's gang members to attack Ash and Eiji when they were alone together. Yut knew that Ash wasn't on guard when he was with Eiji and therefore stated that it was the perfect chance to attack. I started asking myself "Is Yut really a villain?" His reason for going after Eiji was because Ash found love, despite having such a brutal upgrowing like Yut himself did. Although, Yut remained alone. Blanca stated that he had to learn how to love others, in order to be loved. I believe that's true. At first I even thought of Blanca as a villain but that quickly changed, due to his soft spot when it comes to Ash.
Without a second thought, Eiji took the bullet instead of Ash. Literally. As Eiji was just laying there, bleeding heavily, his only thoughts were "Is Ash okay?"
To think that those two would, without a second thought, give away their everything for each other in a heartbeat. What could possibly make a relationship more pure and beautiful than this?
Ash deep down knew how it was gonna turn out in the end, but needed someone by his side as "mental backup" as I call it, in order to keep on moving forward.
For the first time, Ash felt warmth. He had the feeling of being loved. The feeling of not being indebted. It never stroke Eiji that he would need Ash to do something in return if Eiji did Ash a favour.
This anime made me realise that the story isn't far from the world we live in. The world is savage, brutal but beautiful. Watching the anime as it was being aired has been one of my happiest moments. Watching a relationship like Ash and Eiji's, really just impressed me in every single way, and I don't get easily impressed. I have watched a LOT of anime over the years and I knew as this anime was airing, it was taking the place on my top 3 favourite anime list.
I don't think I'll ever be able to cope with how things turned out in the last episode, never have I ever felt such an ache in the chest from an anime. No, not just an anime, overall, series, movies. In the manga, Ash died. But did he really die in the anime? I don't know anymore. I was sure that he did but after being told that this might not have been the case, I feel a bit better. I needed to get all this out, while typing this, I was bawling. I can't get over this heartbreaking story.
Some people say that Ash gave up because he finally found love. But I'm just thinking.. Isn't that one more reason to live? Living for the one he loves?
Eiji's impact on Ash impressed me by a ton. It's so amazing, watching these two guys changing with each episode.
I'm glad the side novels didn't take part in these 24 episodes, as they state that Ash is dead. So I still feel like there's hope somewhere.
Anyway I just needed to get this out.
Watching this anime was one of the most amazing journeys I've ever been on. Thank you for creating such a painful, yet beautiful masterpiece.

First time reviewing a manga so bear with me.
In all honesty I never once thought I'd be able to read manga and let alone a manga with these tags.
I started watching the anime that is currently airing and it's by far one of the best anime series I have ever watched.
I wanted to see what happened after the episode I was currently at while reviewing this manga so I started reading it from where the episode ended since I didn't want to wait a week without knowing what was gonna happen.
I got so caught up in it that I read it through to
...
the end.
It appears the anime is following the manga but for everyone's sake, I hope it doesn't end up like the manga, that was so heartbreaking.
The most heartbreaking and tragic story I've heard of in anime.
It really was such a nice manga but the ending of it..
No. It was way too savage for me but a lot of people probably likes those sorts of endings.
I can't really explain in details what I think about the story and art and character and so on.

I just finished the last episode.
Wow. Just wow.
I never expected an anime like Free! to be one of my all time favourite anime I've watched ever, but it did.
The first two seasons were great and season three did not fail to impress me, even more than the two first seasons.
Story:
I've enjoyed the story more than I could say and there were always so much drama and that was great, the anime is very dramatic and of course season three had to have it as well.
Art:
...
The expressions of each unique character also had their own unique expressions and they were all so beautiful.
Sound:
The voice actors did one amazing job, both the english ones, and the japanese ones.
They were so well fitting with the characters each and everyone and I quickly pointed out my favourite voices.
I hope there are more amazing actors to come in the next season.
Character:
I'm not sure what MYA means by that but everything was on spot either way.
Enjoyment:
I enjoyed it, from start to finish, amazing work and I'm so thrilled to know that there will be a fourth season.
Overall:
Outstanding, perfect, amazing.
I love the Free! anime, and season three is by far my favourite one.
New characters, characters that we know from the movies, are gathering together and I have been waiting a long while to see how it would turn out.
Thank you so much for making this anime that easily reached my top 3 list of all time anime that I have watched.
(Partly because of the hot guys mwaahahah)
Thank you for reading and may you enjoy this show and support it!

It's been a while since I finished the anime, meaning all Junjou and Sekaiichi seasons.
So I'm gonna write a review of Sekaiichi as I feel like giving a shoutout to a specific thing from the anime that I'll be mentioning in a bit.
Let me quickly add to this that it was amazing to watch Junjou and Sekaiichi crossover moments, it was awesome and a great idea.
Anyway let's get into it!
The story:
The story itself is great and super cute in so many ways, and there's a lot of drama and like JJR, the characters in this anime always tend to overthink everything that happens, which
...
sometimes gets on my nerves but yeah.
I like how this is all based on real artistic manga editing, speaking of the characters daily jobs in the story, or so I think.
The art is super great and the face expressions the characters are able to show in each scene is just on the spot.
The characters:
They are each unique but it can be difficult to tell them apart because..
Yeah they look alike.
But it was a good idea to add more than just one couple to the series like JJR did.
It appears the youngest looking main characters always have their funny expressions way more often than the other partner of theirs, and it makes me laugh all the time, of all the anime series I've watched, these JJR and SH made me laugh the most.
As for what I was gonna mention, is how a lot of episodes ends up with the watchers (us) gets a view of the skies, while this one character screams his lungs out, whereas an echo is heard afterwards, that always make me laugh it's so funny that this kind of scene repeats itself so many times in Sekaiichi.
Giving an example on what the character could be screaming as the episode is about to end:
"This isn't love...THIS ISN'T LOVE..... THIS ISN'T LOOOOOOOOOOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!"
Amazing, very good idea!
Anyway, overall, I really like Sekaiichi and Junjou and they're very alike of course.
If you have yet to watch Junjou, I recommend watching that first.
I give this anime a 9.
