Winter 2012
This season's around my final semester in my high school life. Kinda busy since I was a graduating student that time... STILL, managed to watch plenty of anime to enjoy my remaining days as a high school student.
> Amagami SS Plus
Because I watched the first season, there's no escape. I enjoyed watching this series at the same time compared the storyline from the previous season. Oh well, I just didn't enjoy Nanasaki Ai's route.
> Another
I am a fan of gore/morbid anime... and movies. I did like this too and recommended to many friends. I can't help it. The blood from Ghost hunt wasn't enough to ease my thirst to gore scenes. lol I just want mystery/horror anime.
> Inu X Boku SS
This gave me the lightest mood ever. I remember those days when I have to check for episode updates of Chihayafuru and Inu X Boku SS on the same day. lol
> Ano Natsu de Matteru
I really didn't watch this series right away. I watched this after the whole season has ended actually. I just downloaded the episodes then watched it the whole day during vacation. It's quite an interesting love story, just remove the fanservice.
> Brave 10*
Didn't manage to finish this anime though. I forgot to finish watching it since I was also occupied with various works before I can finally graduate. When I had time, I also forgot to add it to my must-finish list. The art captured me. The seiyuu list is awesome. It's just that, the plot is not that powerful for me. Yeah. Okay.
> Shin Tennis no Ouji-sama
Of course, I will never let this series slip away from me. This was only about 12 or 13 episode, I can't remember well. But this season is very short. I wasn't able to follow the manga these days so I dunno if Konomi-sensei is still having plans for another part of this anime. Hoping here. I want more Ono Daisuke.
> Recorder to Randsell
All of a sudden, I watched this 5-minute per episode anime. I was sick by the time I've decided to see this. The problem is kinda cute and I can't imagine Okiayu Ryotaro's voice acting a character of that age. lol I really appreciated this.
> Senhime Zesshou Symphogear
BECAUSE OF MIZUKI NANA, THIS CAUGHT MY ATTENTION. With Symphogear as the OP song, I wasn't able to escape from the poison sting of this anime. I wasn't able to finish this too though, but I am still planning. What reason? Same with my excuse with Brave 10's unfinished business.
> Papa no Iukoto wo Kikinasai*
Do I have to add this? Actually, all I've ever seen was the 1st episode. After that I dropped this series. For those who enjoyed this, should I still give it a try?
> Moretsu Uchuu Kaizoku*
This one too, I wasn't able to continue watching this because my schedule is jump-packed. I had to drop few titles and this one became a victim. I watched this until episode 3 or 4 because Hanazawa Kana is in this series. wwww
> Area no Kishi*
I don't really like sports anime, unless they are tennis or basketball related... Fukuyama Jun's here so I tried to watch this , but in the end, I really can't bring myself to like this. Sorry.
> Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou*
A bunch of guys enjoying their everyday lives, just like what was stated in the title. This is pure randomness but I enjoyed every bit of this. The scene that is etched on my mind is the part where Tomokazu Sugita's character did a radio show inside a room. That was really hilarious.
Spring 2012
THE START OF VACATION. FREEDOM FROM HIGH SCHOOL.
> Fate/Zero*
I dropped this series after watching 3 episodes. Why? I got bored... I will give it a shot another time soon... I don't know how soon it'll be but I can't help but compare it with Fate/Stay Night. The only thing that I got from this series is the OP song, from LiSA, oath sign.
> Medaka Box*
Medaka Box. Yes. I was surprised with how Toyosaki Aki acted out as Medaka. I can't believe she can do such voice acting. Plenty of fanservice, but again, I dropped this after episode 8 because... my hands are just filled with other anime. Might finish this AGAIN some other time. It has 2nd season too so it'll take more time from me.
> Accel World
This series survived on my list. The songs are so superb that I inclined myself to the ED1 by KOTOKO titled unfinished. I don't usually watch mecha but this caught me off guard. Good art and storyline too.
> Hiiro no Kakera
So into REVERSE HAREM. I am an otome too, what do you expect from me? But I thought that this season was slow-paced...but I had to finish it. I waited for a second season and succeeded. The seiyuu list is not that powerhouse compared to La Corda, Hakuouki, etc... the remarkable ones are Sugita Tomokazu, Namikawa Daisuke, Hirakawa Daisuke, and Miyata Kouki.
> Kuroko no Basuke
THESE ARE MY GUYS. I just clicked this series randomly without reading the title. When the OP song was played, I realized it was from GRANRODEO. I liked the first episode and the song...Then I got addicted to it. END OF EXPLANATION.
> Saint Seiya Omega*
I just wanted to experience watching the all new Saint Seiya. Dropped this too at episode 5 since I was too lazy updating myself from tons of anime. Nakagawa Shoko acted here too. Midorikawa Hikaru got the lead role but I don't like him doing such roles, I want him to be more of Seiran, Migeira, Rukawa Kaede-like. lol
> Acchi Kocchi
Watched this after all the episodes was aired. I really love IO! Tsumiki is so lucky. <3 a="a" another="another" appears="appears" bias="bias" blue="blue" factor="factor" font="font" gentleman="gentleman" in="in" io.="io." is="is" moon.="moon." nbsp="nbsp" obuhiko="obuhiko" okamoto="okamoto" once="once" such="such" that="that" voiced="voiced">
> Shining Hearts: Shiawase no Pan*
Dropped this after episode 2. Why? I just don't want fantasies from breads. I thought I can love this just like my fascination in Yakitate! Japan, but nah.
> Hyouka*
They told me this is a good anime. I was too lazy to finish this so I dropped this after episode 15. I can't find anything really interesting as the series goes on...but maybe I will still give it a shot if I have plenty of time.
> Nazo no Kanojo X*
Found Miyu Irino's name, instantly watched this to see for myself what this is all about. The title's kinda weird too... I didn't have any choice but to watch it. DROPPED IT IMMEDIATELY AFTER EPISODE 1. Don't ask me why. It's pure...eew, gross, it's not PURE at all. >__<
> Lupin III: Mine Fujiko to Iu Onna*
THIS IS NOT PURE TOO. The original Lupin is still better, after all this is only centered to Fujiko-san. DROPPED IMMEDIATELY AFTER FEW MINUTES OF WATCHING IT. Take note, MINUTES.
> Sankarea*
I wasn't able to finish this too. I am really not fond of anime love stories with male protagonist...oh wait, the topic of this series is Rea Sanka... but no, the lead role is for a man. Hmmm... let it be. Whoever the protagonist is, I dropped this.
> Zetman*
ZETTO ZETTO ZETTO MAN. LOL for using Jetman's OP.
I got interested to this series but by the time I've decided to watch this at school during my break from editing the articles, my teacher told me, the art looks demonic so I dropped this. I am a good student. *pats myself* wwwwww
> Dusk maiden of Amnesia*
I seriously thought this is like Another... Another Another, but NO. I was disappointed not to see any blood from the first episode so I immediately dropped this. What a lame reason it is, right? I might watch this again soon.
Summer 2012
Officially a college student during this season so the number of titles I watched decreased drastically.
> Sword Art Online
I went "OMDSAFDS! WHAT IS THIS? THIS LOOKS INTERESTING." Watched this then time went so fast. "Will continue watching this." That's it. That explained everything.
> La storia della Arcana Famiglia
Another reverse harem. Was so happy because the seiyuu list is OWZUM too. Fukuyama Jun and Tsubasa Yonaga got the two big roles. Mamiko Noto did the voicing for Felicita. The remaining characters were given to Hiroyuki Yoshino, Sugita Tomokazu, Koji Yusa, and Nakamura Yuuichi. With Yakuza theme, I just drove myself insane with every episode...favorite one? Perhaps it's when Debito did something naughty. Hihihi.
> Hakuouki: Reimei-roku*
Pretty disappointed. Just when I started to like Chizuru...she disappeared in this series. I want her back. Another guy did appear, a character by Tomokazu Seki...but no Chizuru. What's the point? T___T
> Natsuyuki Rendezvous*
Good anime. Good anime. Ohara Sayaka got the female lead. This was a bit out of this world though. Fukuyama Jun and Nakamura Yuuichi got the two male roles. I wasn't able to watch the last 2 episodes because I forgot. WATASHI WA BAKA NAN DESU KEDO. I will add that to my must-watch list later. But this is really a highly recommended one.
> Binbougami ga!*
I wasn't able to finish this too. Out of the blue, I clicked random new anime titles then I stumbled upon this. Interesting one. I just forgot to continue watching this because...I was so lazy to do so. lol I dunno if I stopped watching this at episode 4 or 5.
> Chouyaku Hyakunin Isshu: Uta koi*
I liked Chihayafuru, then this anime show appeared. This gave me a cool background behind those cards they were playing. The seiyuu list is great. Suwabe Junichi got the playboy character again (which reminded me of Jinguji Ren from Uta no Prince-sama Maji Love 1000%).
Fall 2012
Oh yeah, Fall. The start of my second semester. Amazingly, the number of titles is higher compared to last season's.
> Zetsuen no Tempest
The title sounded cool so I tried the first episode... paused at 2nd then continued it after 8 episodes. It's good, but it's not that recommendable.
> K*
With the seiyuu list, I was absorbed by this anime...but the problem is, I am not that updated nowadays. Why? There was a time when I was watching this at my former school, the children were surrounding me, Neko appeared, I can't help but shut down my laptop because they will consider me as a weird human...I will catch up soon. Just not now.
> Magi
VIP by SID as the OP theme...Kaji Yuuki and Tomatsu Haruka in it. Few more wonderful seiyuus in it... a little more sprinkle of a good adventure story...what do we have? MAGI. This is really a good one. People of all ages can watch this.
> Suki tte ii na yo
ROMANCE. ROMANCE. The only annoying episodes are episode 2 and 3. I kinda remembered Bokura Ga Ita from this. The art is good. The OP song is...uh...the ED song is <3 acted="acted" ai="ai" akahiro="akahiro" and="and" couple.="couple." font="font" kayano="kayano" nbsp="nbsp" sakurai="sakurai" the="the">
> Bakuman 3.
One of my favorite series got to have 3rd season. The progress of Mashiro and Azuki Miho's love story and careers go on. Another problem was raised, an opponent who's about to have a match with PCP appeared. How will the story of continue? (I didn't read the manga so I am thrilled with this).
> Code:Breaker
I felt that this one's a reverse harem but it's not. lol Sakurakouji Sakura is like Mikan Sakura from Gakuen Alice, having a nullifying ability, she'll have an adventure with the other Code Breakers who each has his own special ability. Code 06, Ogami Rei became Sakurakouji's classmate and just like Rin Okumura, can use blue flame...at the same time also voiced by Nobuhiko Okamoto.
> Hiiro no Kakera Dai-ni-Shou
The answer to all the questions I had in the previous season. I prefer the songs of this season compared to the first one. I prefer the way the story paced in this season too. I LOVE TAKUMA. With those sweet words from a TSUN TAKUMA, what do you expect will happen to me? lol If you'll read my previous posts, most of 'em are linked to this season of Hiiro.
> Kamisama Hajimemashita
"ねえ神さま
悪い子になリたいよ
いい子にしてるから
お願いだよ
ずるいことさせたいて
いいことしたいなら"
You see
God...
I'd like to be a naughty girl
I'm tired of being good
So, please
It's for a good reason
So let me be bad for once
Lyrics taken from Gendou.com
A human falling in love with a wolf. She then turned to an earth deity...why did I start watching this? BECAUSE IT IS A FREAKIN' ROMANCE ANIME. Tachibana Shinnosuke voiced Tomoe (wolf)... I don't want him to be another InuYasha, good thing he didn't. The setting is very light but I enjoy every episode of this. Too bad it has come to its end. Wishing for a second season.
> Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun
MY FAVORITE ANIME THIS SEASON. Tomatsu Haruka and Tatsuhisa Suzuki made the characters alive. Romance and comedy, this never failed to amuse me. The affection of Haru for Shizuku was present without any fanservice. Though Haru became a bit sneaky in few episodes, he really cares for Shizuku. Aaaah. How I wish this one will have a second season too.
That's it.
That wraps up the anime series aired this year that I've watched. There were few old animes that I watched this year, forgot what those were but I hope there'll be more good animes next year. Amnesia and Chihayafuru are on my list for the next season. Kuroko no Basuke and Uta no Prince Maji Love 2000% on the following season.
Sorry for the long post.
Almost good bye 2012.
