Eyecandy! but where is the substance?

What really grinds my gear are two main things

The two maincharacters:
After watched this I cannot simply define the personalities of the two protagonists... For me they are buck standard cardboard shells of people. Sure the female wanted to adventure out of the city and she was trapped between family and traditions and her dreams of getting out... but what was really her dreams? besides the standard "I wanna get away from the city"..
The male protagonist I feel like that I can even less describe, though he was more a classic dorky male type that needed some help from his "winggirl" ... to be able to get a date.

The grounds for their love.
Why did they even fall for one another ? Besides (Spoilers) sharing one anothers life? (And she having boobs). but again what was so special about their life? their hobbies? their interest? their dreams and hopes? their failures and strenghts?
But no... they fell in love because they were the main protagonist in the story, and you know it.

For real.... How to even review this. It is basicly trippy sound ride with a weird circle animation that is VERY artistic and probably the furthest away of having the label of what we normally know as an ... anime (I know I know per definition it is.... but hot damn, it is something)

but clearly someone did put quite the effort into it

The "I-Should-Not-Be-Entertained-This-Much-the-Anime" XD XD

this is a very very niché anime and to be honest I like to watch random shit especially if it is about something that I have never watched before and short animes because then I can more easily manage to complete them in my busy everyday :)

I went into this series with an ultra lowered bar, expected it to be somewhat like "inferno cop" or other very ultra silly animes like this...
but I became overly pleasantly surprised and I did learn some historical and culturally facts, WHICH I DO NOT MIND :D :D :D :D

so yeah... do not expect it to ... be a great historical and autentic anime like "Rainbow: Nisha Rokubou no Shichinin", Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu, "grave of the fireflies", etc etc.
And do not expect it to be great time travel animes like steins gate, Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica etc etc

Just learn back and just relax by an silly comedy which Thermae Romae indeed is :3

Even though in most cases for specials like these it is needed that you have watched the main series............. but there is no need for this one, the main series did not help at all with the context of this tiny one episode :)

Remember to keep in mind that the animation of this is done on purpose, not for the lack for skills ´cause it is nothing like the main anime, this is just for the fun, silliness and trollness :D So do not bash it for having a very simple and minimalist animation by comparing it to the main series rather compare it to ... other of these kind of simple and minimalist specials like these :)

it did its job as being entertaining for the few minutes, so I approve! ^^

Another One-episode-is-not-enough-anime :)

I have not looked into the background for this anime, from what I have heard it is a somewhat crowdfunded anime and it seems not that it did not live up to the satisfaction, but for what reasons why I do not know :)

Only watch this is you want to crave for more because the setting of the plotline does not stop with only this episode nor did it wrap it all up in a satisfying ending.
Unlike a one episode anime called "Kuro no Sumika: Chronus" which in my opinion had everything, plot, progress, interesting characters and were wrapped up quite satisfyingly :)

but ... was under the dog a mess? No, for me it was like an pilot episode, a longer trailer which shows the potential of the show and for that the show did do good :)
(but I must say it seemed like that maybe the writers/director was quite inspired by gunslinger girls and maybe a bit of neon genesis evangelion? not totally sure about the last one because they did not really show nor told much about the "pandoras")

So yeah watch this if you liked being tortured by anime with potential but only has one episode or you wanna increase your completed anime number :)

To cut a short story even shorter!
- A beautifully fluently anime with A+ piercing skills to break through even the 1-tier sceptics so it can gently caress their coal-black souls and make them just a tiny bit hyped ;)

Is this one anime episode special? No not really. Is it an awesome plot? No it has more cliffhangers than your average Lost episodes. Well what makes it good then? oh boy now you are asking the right question ;)

To be fair Little witch academia 2013 does not bring anything new to the table, nothing at all, you have your classic plain and clumsy protagonist who screws ... up the most simplest things and who is your average underdog.... etc etc... the protagonist somehow still manage to be the hero of the day, giving us the hope that the ugly duckling is a hidden beautiful swan.... sounds familiar? Like every big buster movies for teenagers and such?
I must say that I have only seen very very few episodes of classic magic girl series so maybe it seemed more fresh to me than for fans for this particularly genre. Overall what it did good was being a good allarounder! It had story, it had characters with potential and it had really awesome animation style that really caught me, and overall it was just happy and fluffy without being too overly honey sweet.

20 minutes on this piece is not a waste of time.... I cannot say anything about the new series though based on this one episode anime :) but this one is without any doubt worth it :) Comfortable and cute!

Trigun is quite the 90's anime filled with cliches, everything from tsundere falling in love with the main character, a random cat throughout the series, somewhat the new villian of the week plot setup, correcting your glasses always increases your IQpoints with at least 100 points etc etc etc.
But how did the series manage to stay interesting despite all that?

well the answer at least for me is two factors - 1: I never expected this series to be one of tip of the top! I was fully aware it was a drama comedy and not your heavy beast of series like monster, ghost in the ... shell, blue perfect etc. - 2: it is all about Vash, either you like him or not and without him the series is nothing really, and I liked him ;)

You might ask how can someone like a characters who is somewhat like the child of Alucard and Alexander from Hellsing in physical appearence, who has a goofy personality like Onizuka from the great teacher Onizuka and with the mysterious feel and past and skills like Spike Spiegel from Cowboy Bebop.
Well the answer for me is pretty simpel, he is like your annoying best friend, whom you have a hate/love relationship with for his silliness and goofiness, but you cannot bring yourself to get rid of him, for inside he is true to himself and trying to be as good as possible, compassionated.

Vash does not really have that of an unique personality, there exist many characters with the strong pacifist nature. But what I like about this series is how he is challenged and he logically developes, he is nothing like Shirou from Fate/stay night who has the profound logic of "if you kill people, people die" and where Shirou has that really annoying way of pacifism.

So overall watch this anime in mind that this is not your mindblowing nor really deep (plotwise and cleavage ;) ) but it is all about the entertainment and Trigun understands how to perfectly combine drama with humor without ruining either aspect.
But of course it is an 90's anime, probably some will hate it for its animation but Madhouse still did it great animationwise when kickarseness came in ;)

peace and love!

ps that opening song and the "sad/serious" theme song... loved it!

a_caFe is a 41 sec 1 episode "anime".
It took many times longer to make this very short review than watching it.

After watching this my first thought was, is there really anything that you can review about this one?
It is sooooo short, ends so abruptly that it is so hard to make anything out of it.

I only recommend watching this if you wanna raise your number of completed animes or wanna torture yourself of wanting more.

The setting is very intriguing and the music is nice, so I am left with a feeling of wanting more! but there is none....

Shiranpuri is a one episode anime but don´t let that discourage you or else you might miss this little fine gem here
For one episode it has a better narrative (beginning, middle and ending) compared to many 12 episodes anime shows which often concludes into nothing.

Shiranpuri is about bullying, it isn´t really something new because this topic is already explored through many other media and in various ways.
But what I like about this one is its mores realistic approach and being a point of view for a bystander, not the one who is being bullied:

I can hardly see any reason to skip this one especially because ... of its unique but quite well made animation, good voice acting, good plot phasing and it being a whole story itself.
It doesn´t need more than one episode because it knows what it wants and does it.

First time ever reviewing a hentai (as a bisexual female viewer) AND WAIT! Don´t scroll away! (unless you are a minor, but I cannot really stop you, can I?) XD
Because this is not your average hentai XD

Of course this one contains all the pornographic stuff both lots of BJs, a Gangbang, few tittifucks, one Anal and lots of lovely erotic supernatural elements (for the average perverts out there).

But what makes this quite different is its comedy! It is so funny that it doesn´t take itself really seriously XD so it is indeed a very light hearted hentai especially in contrast to many supernatural hentais ... being quite dark and hardcore, where this is being a rather supernatural fluffy and sweet softcore hentai :D

I laughed at least 10 times more than I ca.... *no comment* XD

so yeah it is not your usual fap-material ;)
