I have really come to love and appreciate the work that SHAFT does when it comes to anime and this show really continues to win me over!
I think that hidden in this cutesy show about a a small town boy learning to find his voice in the big city is a deeper story about mental health and how it effects a family and in this case the community. Something happened to Erio something so bad she lost half a year of her life and can only find solace in hiding wrapped in a futon. She is shown in flash backs lashing out at her

Ookami to Koushinryou

Its 17th century college macro economics class only you get to stay awake and see random boobs.... It follows a traveling peddler and an ancient wolf spirit in human form escaping from the village that no longer cares for her. The back ground story is the church over powering the European country side and the corruption this spread.
I love the characters the way they interact is very believable and very relatable which is a nice burst of fresh air in anime. The love story between the characters is playful and not overpowering and on the few occasions he sees her nude theres NO ...

So i first picked this series up because i lost an auction for a shana figure on ebay. by the end of the series i was scrounging around for more! The first episode is dry but give it time after a few episodes when the story really picks up you will be hooked.

Yoshika is unbelievable as the hero, Mio Sakamoto though a mostly like character has a laugh that grates on your soul and then there is Perrine after a few episodes my wife who likes most everything about anime was jumping off the ...

From the very first minutes of this story you will either be sucked in by its more inappropriate sexual innuendo than a kids bop album antics or forced to run very far far away. I like the characters from the start there crazy new and kind of unique to the more traditional characters we see. and the four main characters jive well enough.
The story like most others is predictable but its quick paced action, and sexual misdirections keep you from seeing alot of the things that this anime fail at. But getting away from the critical synopsis if you walking into a show with ... |
