    The character design were created by CLAMP (クランプ). It is solid and well done. The colors are lively and the animation is great and is quite detailed. The fight scenes are cool but not too flashy. The animation is fluid and smooth. It has interesting background and design. Susaku's white nightware is awesome and Kallen's nightmare is incredible.

    The voice acting was great and awesome. It has amazing opening and ending, I like  Kaidoku Funou (解読不能) because it rocks. Innocent days by Hitomi is very relaxing. I also love the voice delivery of Zero it is a perfect fit. There is nothing to complain to the music because it's great.
   

Enjoyment:

 

    Code Geass is a great enjoyable experience. It is quite psychological and it's wild ride was so intense. I am always amuzed by the strategies that gave the Japanese most of it's victories. The knightmare fights were totally awesome especially when Suzaku and Kallen starts to fight. I also enjoyed this because of it's highly intelligent battles. It will also give you the greatest cliffhanger. :)
   

Overall: 

 

    Code Geass is a great anime show and it is very entertaining. The fights and soundtrack were awesome. The strategic battles were well-made, the character design was gorgeous and is very appealing. What makes this a great anime is it's crazy plot. I wholeheartedly recommend this anime.

Story:

 

    I was hooked when watching this because I am MMORPG player and a solo player like Kirito. The story is great, because depicts most player in MMORPG. Many hated Kirito because he was too good in the game and reached the highest floor during the beta test and he was called "beater" a combination of beta tester and a cheater. I was drawn by his persona because if your a great player like Kirito many will hate you. Most players blame other person for being weak, But as matter of fact it only depends on your tactics and strategies and not being to overpowered and not being a cheater. The only thing I notice was the story was rushed. The plot is amazing and the ideals and thought about the anime is great. I also love the romance about Kirito and Asuna. The fight scenes are amazing specially the boss fight.

Art and Animation:


    The visual art is appealing and stunning. The background is very artistic and it will caught your eye. The fight Scenes was well done and it was consistent. I also love the details about the boss and fight scenes.

Sound:


    The voice acting was great, nothing to complain about because it was totally awesome. It also has a nice soundtrack I really enjoyed the music because I am a fan of Yuki Kajiura (梶浦 由記). I love Crossing Field by LiSa it is so cool.

Enjoyment:


    I enjoy this anime because I can really relate for being a solo player. I love the fight scenes the childish and the romantic comedy. It was very entertaining for me, I truly enjoy watching Sword Art Online a lot. Totally worth watching it has great action specially the fight scenes, love story and amazing twists and turns at every corner, followed up with deep sad moments that will make you cry and a little bit of sense humor.

Overall: 

 

   Sword Art Online is a fantastic series.  I also like the attitudes of all the characters. The characters ideas was unique. It has fantastic composer and visual background. I will give a 10/10 if the story was not rushed and the time frame were not missing. I also recommend watching Steins Gate

Golden Time (ゴールデンタイム, Gōruden Taimu)

Golden Time
Golden Time

"I may be unreliable, and I may not be able to do anything, but I'm here. I'll always be with you. I'll be always by your side."

          The story revolves with Tada Banri a college student student who suffered retrograde amnesia due to an accidental fall from a bridge when he was about to graduate in high school. He lost all his memories from the past, about his family, his friends, even the one he loves. He enrolled at a Private Law School in Tokyo, leaving all his memories behind. He plans to continue his life living as a new Tada Banri leaving his past life behind. During the opening ceremony he was completely lost, He saw student with the same uniform but he eventually lost them and then he accidentally met Yanagisawa Mitsuo who became his friend. They were both lost and somehow they arrive at their destination. Suddenly a rich looking girl named Kaga Kokou hit Mitsuo with a bouquet of rose. He was hit because he was planning to leave Kokou behind and secretly took the Law School Entrance exam in Tokyo. They were bound by a promise to marry each other.

  •  Golden Time (ゴールデンタイム)  by Yui Horie (堀江由衣) - [Episode 24]

Genre: Comedy, Romance, Slice of Life, Supernatural, Drama


Story:


    The story is mostly about a relationship. It shows how happy a relationship can be and how it can be painful and sad. The thing that I like most about Golden Time is how realistic the scenario. The dating part, Acceptance for what she/he is, and challenges in relationship. Another thing that caught my attention is that it does not take place in high school but college. It shows how wild and free a college life can be. ^_^
   
    I love the realistic feel of the romance. I also like the comedy part and the wackiness of the characters. Specially the ups and down in it. Sometimes you can relate to those scenarios specially those possessive girl act. I also like the growth of the characters and how they mature. The other twist that I like is the retrograde amnesia part. How would you live your life. What if one morning you wake and you don't know all the people from the past. What if you have established a new life and you would forgot all the happy memories that you have made. I also like the supernatural thing that happened.
   
   

Art and Animation:


    The art is is made by J.C. Staff (株式会社ジェー・シー・スタッフ). I love the quality because of it's consistency in all episodes. The characters are attractive and very modern. I love the female design because they are fashionable. The background are detailed and pretty good.   

Sound:

   
    The opening and the ending song are great. But I most enjoy is the ending song Sweet & Sweet CHERRY by Yui Horie (堀江 由衣). The voice acting is also great. I also love the voice acting of Yui Horie as Kokou, very attractive and appealing. Overall it was great ^_^ 

Enjoyment:

   
    All I can say is that I enjoy the comedies, the drama and specially the romantic part. I like the ups and down the story, it is like a roller coaster ride.
   

Overall:

   
    I love this anime because I can relate to its realistic scenario. I also learn moral lessons in life. I enjoy the comedy and romance and drama. All I can say it is awesome. If like this, I also recommend watching Toradora!. I will give it a 9, because I really did enjoy it. 

Overall Rating (9/10)

Story:


     The Law of Ueki is unique and the story execution was great and fun. It has interesting strategies in every battle, a battle of supernatural power. It is a simple story about a high school boy with high sense of justice. It is a eco-friendly anime because Ueki uses trash into trees. I like the plot's twist because sometimes you thought you have predicted it and yet you have unpredicted it. It has amazing fight scenes it is full of excitement and adventure. It is has moral lesson that we can learn. It teaches morale, Even how hopeless it may be he keeps on fighting and believing in his friends.

     Studio Deen Co., Ltd. (株式会社スタジオディーン) did a very great job. The character designs remind me of Zash Bell. The colors are lively and bright.

Enjoyment


    I think enjoyment in Law of Ueki is quite intense. The battles were suprising it is fun and exciting. All has climatic points specially the fight scenes because you would not know how he would win or will he really lose. The sense of humor was great, and I love Ueki's personality and his sense of justice for doing what is right. It is surely exciting to watch.

Overall:


    Overall, Law of Ueki is a superb anime to watch. If your an action , shounen or anime fan in general it you should not miss it because you will no get bored of it. The story progression is exciting because it relies on battles. It also has the right amount of twist and turns to keep you satisfied. If you like this I will also recommend Shaman King.

      This one is a very good one. The first Clannad gave me a lot of laughs, but this one game me extreme laughter and tears. Clannad After Story concludes the original Clannad story. It explains the details about the personalities of each character and it's story setting. 

      Clannad After Story is one of a kind anime, or shall I say a masterpiece of it's kind. It will give you a lot of laughter like the first season, but will also give you a lot of tears from it's tear jerking episodes. I highly recommend this anime for all anime enthusiast and also for those who do not like anime, for they will like it. Many lessons can be learned from this anime and I will assure you that you would not regret watching it.

      The soundtrack on this anime is one of the reason why I watched this anime and the music on this anime is magnificent. Jun Maeda really knows how to put things right when it comes to music. The soundtrack on both Clannad's are magnificent. Who will never forget the "Dango Daikazoku" song. Anyone who've watched this anime will surely enjoyed the music. I personally enjoyed it. :)

Story:

 

     

Art and Animation:

 

   In 1995, Studio Gainax did the animation for Evangelion. I think that it has very decent animation during those times. The only thing that I notice was quality rate of animation drops in some episode. It has more dialogue scenes and less battle. It is reasonable due to budget issues. But I love the weapon's design and the mechas were unique. I also like the details of the city and how it is being damage during the fight scenes. Every Angel has it's own unique characteristic and I love the futuristic Tokyo. Overall it is a spectacular anime despite it's flaws.

Anohana The Flower We Saw That Day
Anohana The Flower We Saw That Day
"We’ll grow up. And as the seasons rush past the flowers blooming along the roadside will change, too. I wonder… What were the names of the flowers that bloomed during that season? They trembled slightly in the breeze, felt a little prickly to touch… and when you moved your nose close to them, they gave off the dress scent of sunlight. In time, that scent will fade. And we’ll grow up. But… I’m sure those flowers will continue to bloom somewhere. Yes. We’ll go on… granting the wishes of those flowers forever."

"Money and status? cars and houses? precious jewelry? lovers and friends? Being human means going through life stealing precious things and having precious things stolen from you in return. That's the kind of desperate, hopeless creatures humans are. If what gets taken from you is money or things? You can probably get it back. But if it's something else entirely, something like warmth or humanity then the only thing that can fill up the cavern inside your heart is meeting another human being who holds the same emptiness.?"

D.Gray-man
"No matter what I attempt, even if it's the most simple of tasks, it always ends in failure. Unfortunately, I find that my life is one big regret after another. Yet, after all these years, I still don't know when to give up. Is it my fault to keep trying when the results are always the same? Is it impossible for me to make things right? Even if I'd try to give up, I don't think I could. It's not in my nature to submit in the face of disappointment. In the end, I guess I'm just a glutton for punishment. I really am an idiot."
