Season's Greetings!! v2.0

Hah! The anniversary of this, I only have less than 15 minutes to catch everything up to date!!

Where shall I begin?

Yes, I'll restate that blogs are alot more attention-paying and time-consuming than I initially thought, but that's alright!

Currently watching:

SPRING 2008

Soul Eater - 7/10

The animé's great, blowing the used and abused Naruto and Bleach franchise out of the water, but lately I haven't been getting into it as much...

Xam'd: Lost Memories - 6/10

Started good, but started dragging...and dragging...and dragging...

...I don't even know where I am at this point.

SUMMER 2008

Chocolate Underground - 5/10

Weird concept, and weirder situation, and beyond weird plot. I can't follow anymore.

EVE no Jikan - 9/10

For a psuedo-slice of life, it's VERY intriguing! I don't know why the interals are so far apart, but I guess the wait makes in that much better!!

Koihime Musou - 6/10

Fanservice. That's about it.

Sekirei - 6/10

Even more than the above.

Slayers: Revolution - 6.5/10

I'm ashamed to say I haven't gotten into theis series as much.

FALL 2008

Akane-Iro ni Somaru Saka - 6/10

Reminds me a bit of School Days meets Toradora!, only with half the goodness.

CHAOS; HEAD - 8/10

Pretty intriguing, but slow. But intriguing.

CLANNAD ~After Story~ - 9.5/10

I liked the first CLANNAD animé, so why not enjoy another round of goodness?

Ga-Rei Zero - 9/10

Great start, even better process! I LOVE IT!!

Kannagi - 7/10

A stump of a Goddess becomes a Goddess? And does Lucky Star-like daily tidbits? Meh.

Kemeko DX - 9/10

Now THIS is a show I've been waiting for for quite some time! Since Muteki Kanban Musume, I believe!

Rosario+Vampire Capu - 7/10

They're really milking the whole ecchi romantic comedy school life monster thing, even releasing more character CDs. But the opening was VERY well done!

Seto no Hanayome OVA - 9/10

I love this series as well! And I loved the OVA just as much/even more!!!

Shikabane Hima Aka - 7/10

"Corpse Princess"? Do you REALLY want to be called "Corpse Princess"?

Tales of the Abyss - 8/10

Main character's the epitome of a spoiled brat, but that DOESN'T mean the animé sucks! I REALLY wanna play the game now!!

Toaru Majutsu no Index - 7/10

Well, I didn't care much for it before, but now things are starting to get interesting. And you can tell J.C. STAFF did this one, since it has the EXACT same feel as Shakugan no Shana.

Toradora! - 9/10

One of my favourite's this season! It's like how "Magical Battle School (Shakugan no Shana)" turns to "Magical School (Zero no Tsukaima)" turns to "School (Toradora!)"! And quite frankly, as much as I adore Yui Horie's voices, Kushieda's annoying, and Ami-Chan's hot hot HOT!!!

Yozakura Quartet - 7/10

The manga's WAAAY better, but the animé opens up some interesting AUs. Nothing more, nothing less.

Code Geass R2 - 01

FINALLY!! The ONE (possibly) series this year I'm looking forward to watching!!

Code Geass R2, episode 1, STARTO!!













This first episode is actually one big mind trip, much like the first episode of Shakugan no Shana Second! Starting off with Lelouch living the school life once again, as if Season 1 never happened.


















Villetta's back! And what better way to reintroduce her than to throw her in pointless comedic escapades?










"High ho Silver, away!"










Shirley's back too! Sweetness!

The show also reintroduced the support characters, and what became of them after the year of 'peace'. Zero is dead, the Elevens are subdued, and everyone in the school's back to being happy and carefree, probably because they're Britannians, those bastards! lol


















Meet Lelouch's brother, Rolo.
...WHAT!!?

Lelouch ditches school and heads off to go do illegal stuff, bringing his little brother Rolo along with him. I guess he plays chess against rich people for money. Anyway, he claims to do it because he's otherwise bored out of his mind.










Lelouch obviously wins, but the rich bastard decides to frame Lelouch and to arrest him, but suddenly a (dun dun duun!) terrorist attack starts up!

Yes, it was at about this time into the show I suddenly spaced out into a trance. I don't know why.


























































































Where was I again? Something about Lelouch and Rolo escaping the battle scene, all while Kallen is trying to tell him something. Further into the attack, Lelouch is confronted by C.C., who tries to tell him something about his 'true self'. Lelouch is interested to what she's trying to say, until she gets shot (again) and plummets about 15 feet, to be caught by bewildered Lelouch.










LMAO!! Britannia's don't know gooder English!! ROFL!!










C.C. was shot by people who apparently stalk whoever they're to use as bait for terrorist attacks? Seems a bit too sketchy for me, but whatever.










"Dear Diary, today Lelouch showered with the windows opened. We didn't need infrared this time! Yay! <3"

The end of this episode resulted in Lelouch regaining his powers via C.C. and obliterating a group of Britannians, while grinning and plotting his plan to take over the world!


















Yes, maam!

















Welcome back, Zero!

And who do we have here? Suzaku, along with some of his equals worshipping The Emperor of Britannia, planning their next step to not only stop Zero, but kill him as well!


















All-in-all, there a a mountain of questions I want to ask, but I'll trust Sunrise to answer them all, even one-by-one is fine, since this series should be the most hyped animé this year!
