PROS:
More humor
Increased character depth
Miss Shikijo is more tolerable

CONS:
The last episode is a little unsatisfying

STORY:
One of the most noticeable differences is the increase in humor. The show will have you laughing much more then the previous season, although things get even more serious towards the end then last season. personalty i really liked the lighthearted approach. It was nice to see Mahro enjoy the peace she earned at the end of the last season.
...
ART:
The art is the same as before. There were no major differences that I noticed.

SOUND:
Bridget Hoffman once again proves her talent as a voice actor, she's even better then she was last time. Derek Stephen Prince did an outstanding job as
Suguru

I enjoyed the music more this time. I especially liked the opening theme, it does a good job of getting you in the mood to watch the show.

CHARACTERS:
The characters have more depth this time around, i thought the relationship between Mahro and Suguru developed quite nicely. Suguru's friends were more enjoyable.

OVERALL:
I don't have any major complaints about this anime. Every epsiode was a joy to watch. They improved on just about eveything.

PROS:
Intriguing setting
likable characters
Adults can enjoy just as much as children

Cons:
Greta, Basil , and Cinnamon
Cutesy dialog may annoy some people

STORY:
... I thought the idea of fairys controlling the weather was a unique idea. Although having a human living with a nonhuman has been done before, it still felt refreshing. One of the things I respect about this anime the most is that it never feels dumbed down

ART:
The animation is very beautiful and inviting .The environments remind me of Miyazaki's movies.

SOUND:
The english dub is superb, Michelle Ruff is a perfect fit for Saga, the same goes for Rebecca Forstadt as Sugar. They both did an amazing job bringing their characters to life.

CHARACTERS:
Accept for a select few all of the characters are likable. I would have liked to see Greta, Basil, and Cinnamon have more depth and significance to the plot.
I felt they had no real reason to be there.

Overall:
This anime is very cute, but not in an overwhelming way. It's something people of all ages can get into.

PROS:
Animation
Characters
Story

CONS:
Lesbian themes may be a turn-off for some people

STORY:
I liked the story, the mix of Yuri and mecha was very intriguing to me. Things get complicated but the show manages to explain just about everything.
...
ART:
The character and mecha designs are great and I liked the colors used.

SOUND:
The voice work was excellent, Stephanie Sheh's performance as Himeko was very well done, she does an amazing job of conveying her determination and courage along with her timidness.Michelle Ruff was a perfect choice for Chikane. She makes it easy to sympathize with her.

The music is very well done and sets the mood perfectly.

CHARACTERS:
The characters were a little stereotypical but not to the point were it becomes annoying. I was satisfied with the way they developed throughout the series, but I was a little disappointed with how the antagonist were handled. They were beaten to easily sometimes and there past was only vaguely hinted at.

OVERALL:
Kannazuki no Miko was a very satisfying series. There was no filler or dragged out episodes.

PROS:
Beautiful animation
The spotlight is shared with lesser known characters
Top-notch humor
Amazing soundtrack
Some characters are more likable

CONS:
Fans of the previous series may not like the changes

... STORY:
The story seemed like it was going to retell the same story that the previous series did but it quickly develops it's own unique storyline. Personally I enjoyed the story in Negima!? more, due to the lack of fanservice and stronger focus on characters, action and drama.

ART:
I found the animation to be visually stunning, the characters looked much better this time around. It's very fluid overall

SOUND:
The voice acting in the english dub is just incredible, you can tell the all had a lot of fun.

The music was awesome overall, especially the opening

CHARACTERS:
Unlike Negima! Negima!? all the girls in the class get a chance to shine. Considering the large cast of characters they handled it very well. I liked the changes they made to some of the characters like Nodoka, who I found much more likable.

OVERALL:
Negima!? was a very enjoyable show for me and I hope others will enjoy it as much as I did.

PROS:
Great character design
Good action scenes
Nice ending
Homage to old school mecha
Nostalgic soundtrack

CONS:
The amount of fan service may bother some people

... STORY:
The story starts of like a traditional mecha anime with war involving giant robots but the truth is the story is mostly centered around the characters. I personally liked this approach very much.

ART:
I really loved the artstlye, It seemed prety unique. The the colors are very vibrant.

SOUND:
I voice acting was handled very well. Brett Weaver's (Voice of Nabeshin from Excel Saga) voice was perfect for Goh. He truly excels at being over the top. I was also nice to hear hilary haag ( Voice of Rosette Christopher from Chrono Crusade) as Anna, she along with everyone else did an amazing job.

I really liked how the music felt so nostalgic, I thought it was good overall.

CHARACTERS:
I enjoyed how every character got at least one moment in the spotlight. All the characters were likable and fun to watch.

ENJOYMENT:
I liked the over the top moments, they reminded me of G-gundam and Gurren Lagann. This show has lots of epic moments the make it worth watching.

OVERALL:
There's nothing about this show that I strongly disliked. The action, animation, voice acting, and music were amazing.

PROS:
Great action scenes
Has more depth then one might expect at first glance
Likable characters

CONS:
The pervy teacher will undoubtedly annoy some people

STORY:
I really liked the story, it moved at a great pace except for the last few episodes before the finale witch I thought prolonged the final battle for to long. I would have also liked to get to know the supporting cast better.
...
ART:
I have no complaints about the art. Overall I think it is very well done.

SOUND:
This shows dub absolutely perfect. I can't imagine them with different voices, Bridget Hoffman's performance as Mahoro was a pleasure to listen to. Derek Stephen Prince's voice was a perfect fit for Suguro

The music wan't bad at all butt most of it wasn't very memorable for me

CHARACTERS:
Suguro was probably the most surprising character, I was impressed when he stood up to others he had no chance against with no hesitation. Mahoro was a very interesting character, I thought it was impressive how she enjoyed her life despite her violent past.

ENJOYMENT:
I really had fun watching this anime and hope to see it again someday.

OVERALL:
Mahoromatic is a great anime with well thought out characters and a deep story.

PROS:
Unique art style
Memorable characters
Great soundtrack
Tons of unforgeable moments

CONS:
Won't appeal to a wide audience
Ends on cliffhanger

... STORY:
The story is simple and fun. I thought it moved at a good pace. It's the kind of show you can put on hold for a while without worrying abut forgetting what happened. I like how every episode was different from the next.

ART:
The art is excellent, the cartoony character designs suited the show very well. I never come across an anime that looked quite like it.The exaggerated facial features are the funnest I've seen.

SOUND:
The voice acting is top notch, Richard Epcar,Kirk Thornton, Jamison Price, there are a ton of talented actors contributing to the English dub and their effort paid of big time. The dialog can be lame at times but the voices make up for it.

The music is a joy to listen to I thought alll the songs were great. I haven't heard this style of music used to often.

CHARACTERS:
All of the characters were awesome and funny.Even the one-shot bad guys are entertaining. But Don Patch got on my nerves sometimes.

ENJOYMENT:
To say I enjoyed this show immensely is a massive understatement, It never failed to cheer me up. Evey episode had at least one moment that caused me to burst out laughing uncontrollably, I had a great time watching this with my younger brother.

OVERALL:
Bobobo is a anime that will always be on my all time fav list, every episode is so ridiculous and random that I never got tired of watching it. this show has the best blend of action and comedy I think iv'e ever seen in anime.

PROS:
Hilarious rap song in episode 2

CONS:
No character development
The story isn't given time to develop
No conclusion

Story:

... The show is only two episodes long so there's not much of a plot, the story seemed like it could have been interesting but it wasn't given the chance to be.

ART:

The art was fine, but not that intersting to me.

SOUND:

The dub was just fair, not that bad but not the best ether

I didn't find the music that interesting or memorable.

CHARACTERS:

The characters were mediocre for the most part, although the male lead was wasn't quite as mediocre as the others. There wasn't anyone I really rooted for because everyone lacked depth.

ENJOYMENT:

there weren't many memorable moments aside from the rap love song in the second episode and the way Ren speaks. Even though this anime is only 2 episodes long I didn't feel like finishing it.

Overall:

I was looking forward to seeing this but it wasn't as good as I'd hoped.

STORY:

I was very impressed with the story overall, I thought it was pretty unique. There were some great plot twist thrown in that took me by surprise, I was glad to see that things were not as obvious as they seemed. The story moved at a great pace and had no filler episodes.

ANIMATION:

The art is the same as the previous season although it seems a bit better this time around, the animation during the ending song was particularly beautiful.

SOUND:

I have to say I was extremely impressed with the voice acting, Mona Marshals performance as Jun was no less then outstanding, the same goes ... for Mela Lee as Shinku and everyone else.

The music is the same style used in season 1. It fits very well and there wasn't any song I disliked.

CHARACTERS:

I loved all the characters aside from the true antagonist, they were all very interesting and I ended up rooting for most of them. I enjoyed Jun and Shinkus development the most. For me the characters are the main draw of the show.

ENJOYMENT:

Rozen Maiden is a truly unique show that should not be missed I ended up enjoying the show even more then I'd hoped I would, none of the episodes were boring or unsatisfying. I had a great time watching this show and hope it continues.
