Kamisama Hajimemashita (神様始めました)

Hello, it’s been a long time since our blog have a new anime review, I am so sorry about that. But fear not I am here to introduce another anime review. Today the anime that I wish to tell you about is ‘ Kamisama Hajimemashita’ or also known as ‘Kamisama Kiss’.

This anime is about a 16 years old high school girl named Momozono Nanami finding her love through various challenges. But there is one thing that make this typical shoujo anime stands out in my own favorite anime list, which is that Nanami is not a normal high school girl rather she is a land god. Well some things happen in her life, which led her to become the first human land god in their mysterious other world ( the god and spirit world that is). Want to know how Nanami became a land god and how she find her love? Then check this anime one, trust me this anime worth your time for it.

Review

Well enough of the synopsis and head towards the review on this anime. As I have mention above, this anime is one of my favorite anime (even though its not my most favorite one). I am attracted to this anime is because the characters. (ok maybe partially is because of the storyline). The characters are very cool looking and handsome which sort of attracted me and made me to continue watching it.

There is a character name Tomoe, he is a fox spirit who works as a familiar for the previous land god . But he became Nanami’s familiar after she became the land god. There’s also a very interesting relationship between him and Nanami. I will not spoilt to much about both of them.

Next is a character named Kurama, he is a famous idol in the human world. He have many fans, but because of his age, he have to attend school which is incidentally is Nanami’s school. After knowing that she is a land god, he was trying his best to gain the god power by killing Nanami. However, why does he want to gain the god power, in the first place how does he even know Nanami is a god? Is he even a human? Well, this information is for you to find out.

Okay I shall stop here about the characters and talk about their opening and ending songs .

Both their opening and ending songs are quite catchy and hyper in a sense that will make you feel happy.  Personally, I don’t really like the melody of the songs but the lyrics are nice. For their opening song, it is talking about a girl wanting to stop being a good girl and want to try to be a bad girl for a day, like lifting up her skirt (which girl would do that?).

I shall stop here for this post. I will try to upload more anime reviews soon. So be sure to check our page \(>.<)/

And one good news, this anime recently have their second season. But you would have to watch their first season first as they are linked.  Until next time. (>_<)ノ

One Piece

One piece is an anime that has been on-going for quite a long time. I believe that it has gone on for so long because it is funny and has a great storyline. Luffy, the main character, is a pirate crew’s captain. He actually started out with nothing but passion to be a pirate king and determination from his friend, Shanks.

Surprisingly, Luffy’s weird or maybe unique personality were able to recruit many different types of crew members. All of them are very strong and very important friend of his. I feel that he has the all for one and one for all attitude which makes me admire him.

The story of the anime is very entertaining although the episodes are pretty short to me. Whenever I watch this anime, I cannot help but burst laugh or have some tears in my eyes as it is very touching. Many emotions were brought out of me as I watch this anime. The crew itself also have many crew members with interesting personalities.

The Straw Hat Crew (Luffy’s pirate crew name), will not be the way it is without every member. I like Chopper in the anime the most. He is the doctor in the crew and is not human. He is a reindeer, often mistaken as a racoon dog. He is very cute and also very funny at the same time.

Watch One Piece to figure out which crew member you would like most! And maybe comment below your favourite character and why that particular character! :D

Love Stage

Hi, it’s me again. Today I will be introducing you all another ongoing anime series. However before I start, I will kindly inform y’all that this anime that I am going to introduce is a boys’ love anime. So those who are uncomfortable with same gender relationship, please kindly skip this review as it may cause you some discomfort. Thank you.

Now that I have given you the warning, I shall begin with my post for today. The anime that I am going to introduce to you all is Love Stage! .

This anime is about a college student named Izumi Sena who is an Otaku ( someone who loves to read manga and watch animes) too.

However, Izumi is not an ordinary college students. Even though he may look dull and boring, he is born into a famous and super-talented family as his father, mother and brother are all very famous in the entertainment industry. Izumi always wanted to be a mangaka ( someone who draws comics) ever since he saw an anime character – “Magical Girl Lala Lulu”.

But one day, he was asked to act in a sequel of an wedding advertisement that he was casted in ten years prior… as a girl. However, he would have to act as a female again. ( Want to know what happen? You will know it once you watch the anime). After much protest by Izumi, he finally accept this job where he winds up in an awkward moment with his co-star, Ryouma Ichijou ( who is a very famous actor and singer in the show). What awkward moment did they ended up in? Stay tuned to this anime to know.

For this anime, I have only know about it when I first seen the teaser for this anime. Most of my friends believed that Izumi is a girl however, I know that Izumi is a guy immediately once he came out in the teaser.(He is a wedding dress and long hair wig) Okay let put these details aside and get to the real point. I have immediately fallen in love with this anime the moment I finished watching the first episode. I totally love the comedic (and cute) scenes that this anime has.

The voice actors portray their characters very well, which made me laugh a lot as they have used unique voices to help the viewer to understand the story better. I am very surprise that the voice actor of Izumi is able to make those inaudible speech.

The foll0wing video is the teaser for this anime:


So if you are interested in this anime, you can go to the following website

Akuma No Riddle

Akuma no Riddle is a Assassination type of anime. There are 12 Assassins in the class built on to kill 1 of themselves to get a wish as a reward. But Soon, one of the 12 assassins becomes the target’s protector instead. It’s an Action, School, Yuri type of anime. Since it’s a type of anime focused about assassins, There are some blood and gore, but not too much.

Story 8/10
The Story was well thought out and left out an unexpected end (Not going to spoil). Although it was Cliché at some points, it is still different from other animes and the story is unique from others.

Characters 8/10
Out of 11 out of 12 of the characters, each of them bare something in common, they have the same common emotion to kill. Each of them showed the same devilish face with the intention to kill. Even though they all have the same thing in common, they all have their individual personalities well.

Animation and Sound 7/10
The Animation and Sound of this average. The Emotions of the characters were displayed well whether they are sad or happy or crazy. The Sound was good and the voice actors displayed well and good emotion.

Enjoyment 8/10
I enjoyed this anime as in each episode, I wanted to know what will happen in the next. It builds up so well especially wanting to know what will happen to each and every one of the assassins along the way. Everyone also has a different way of killing the target, which makes it enjoyable even more.

Overall 7.5/10
It is a great anime to be looking forward to especially when it was on-going. After going through the first 2 episodes, the story started to pick up and each of their characters have their own time to shine. Overall, I liked this anime and I was able to remember each of their characters well.

Final Fantasy VII Advent Children

                               
Synopsis

Set two years after the events of Final Fantasy VII, Cloud Strife and Tifa Lockheart was called by Rufus Shinra, Shinra Company Former President. He ask Cloud to stop the manifestations of Sephiroth, a former SOLDIER of Shinra Company, Kadaj, Loz and Yazoo. However, Cloud refused to help Rufus. Kadaj, Loz and Yazoo planned to resurrect Sephiroth using the remains of Jenova, an Extraterrestrial. The three then abducted the GeoStigma , a disease, infected children so that they can reunite with Jenova. Now Cloud and his friends have to rescue the children and stop the three to save the city of Edge.

My Review
Final Fantasy VII Advent Children is an anime movie that is set a couple of years after the events of the Final Fantasy VII franchise. The movie tells the story of what has happen after the defeat of Septhiroth. The world was turn in turmoil as a new disease, with no cure, spread across the newly build city "Edge". Cloud Strife return as the main character together with Tifa Lockheart and his another companions. The plot of the movie was understandable but it can confuse people who did not play the game, as it follows up from the game itself. However, the flashy and exciting fighting scenes were so spectacular that I find myself rewinding and re-watching the scenes again. Other than the fighting scene, the story was not rushed but I felt like that could have made the story better. The movie have a good soundtrack and also used the most memorable soundtrack from the game itself. Overall, Advent Children is a good anime movie to watch and i recommend this movie to anyone, specially the Final Fantasy VII fans. I rate this movie 8 / 10.
