Anime Review: Toradora!

If you haven’t seen this anime, please follow the link below to read up on it.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toradora!
The artwork for Toradora! is decent. The characters are fairly common style, though I found the main pair’s faces just a touch different, which helped them stand out. The soundtrack was fair, nothing special, but didn’t seem to detract from [...]

Anime Review: Burst Angel - Bakuretsu Tenshi

OH MY GOOOOOOOOOD!!!!
How can you end a series like this????? Aiyah aiyah aiyah!!!
It’s as if they had planned a second season, then just forgot about it, but still left huge unanswered questions and cliffhangers! It’s as bad as Berserk. Bloody hell, it’s frustrating. I know the entire fan community for Burst Angel was waiting [...]

Anime Review - Devil May Cry

Wikipedia Link

The bad ass hero, Dante, is half human, half demon. Ultra laid back to the point of being “super cool”, never flinches, never falters. He runs a mercenary business called Devil May Cry. He takes on any odd job for money, mostly supernatural, but has a constant stream of debts and bills that leave [...]

Anime Review - Strawberry Panic

I’ve heard it described by some as a guilty pleasure. Others as initially trashy, but with redeeming values. While I thought that the anime series started out very light and fluffy, without much to it, I think that, in the end, it makes a little more of itself than what I first thought.

The series is [...]

sola (sky) and H2O

Watching the new anime series sola (Japanese for sky), it struck me that the artistry was very beautiful throughout the series. Likewise released in 2007, H2O also has gorgeous colours, sounds and even mixes select 3D effects for added depth to the work. Between the two, you can see just how amazing and far animation [...]

Anime - H2O / Footprints in the Sand

I’ve seen the first 4 episodes and already I love it! The colouring is beautiful, and the sound effects perfect. The 3D additions in the water and little pieces here and there like fish and a water wheel give the work just the perfect amount of texture and fluidity. The water in particular is gorgeous. [...]

Introduction to Anime

I was recently asked what would be a good anime to watch in order to experience this story telling art form for the first time, or to experience anime that is of a higher and more complex quality than, say, Dragonball or Transformers. Not that there’s anything wrong with Dragonball, and Transformers kicks ass, but [...]

Anime Review - Elfen Lied (Sugoi!)

Elfen Lied is an anime developed from a manga series, produced in 2005. It’s bold. Daring. Without genre. I was so riveted that I watched it in one sitting. I couldn’t turn away. By the end, tears rolled down my cheeks.

It started out with the first episode as I ate dinner. I thought, the first [...]

Anime Review - Kimi Ga Nozomu Eien (Rumbling Hearts)

Kimi Ga Nozomu Eien (Rumbling Hearts) (click here for Wikipedia link) is a short, 14 episode anime regarding the lives and loves of 3 individuals as they leave high school and enter the adult world. It’s a love triangle that you’ve never seen before, and trust me you probably are NOT expecting what goes on [...]
