Day 2: Favorite Anime You’ve Watched So Far?

So my favorite anime that I’ve watched so far has to be Ouran High School Host Club! I just love this anime because it’s so funny and also has some drama which makes it even more exciting.

It’s one of the few shows that I can watch over and over again and not tire of it. I literally when I’m bored and just want to watch something exciting will put on Ouran and it’s the perfect thing to make me happy.

I also like Ouran because of the fact that while of course (spoiler alert) Haruhi and Tamaki end up getting together (in the manga) and are meant to be together. You can definitely put her with almost any of the hosts so the pairings are endless which makes fanfiction exciting.

So that’s my day 2 of the 30 day anime challenge. So what’s your favorite anime that you’ve watched so far? Answer below and let me know and if you haven’t already watched Ouran High School Host Club definitely check it out. You won’t be disappointed. Alright happy watching!

Day 1: Very First Anime You Watched

So the very first anime that I watched is no surprise at all it was Sailor Moon. I used to watch this show everyday after school and I was and still am completely obsessed with it. It’s one show that I couldn’t get enough of as a kid and was so different from anything that I had seen before.

But what was everyone else’s first anime? I would love to know!

SMC Episode 12 Review!

Published December 30, 2014 by Shay Taree

So as we all know the most recent episode of Sailor Moon Crystal aired a few weeks ago and I have to say that this episode was definitely one of the more exciting ones due to the fighting that was going on.

Although I still can’t help but not entirely like where exactly this show is going. I miss the wacky, crazy, humor side of the show and I don’t see that with this new series.

Now I know that this show is based off the manga but even so myself and one of my friends had to check and see if what had all happened was in the manga since I was a little rusty on the manga contents. But anyways this is a review about episode 12.

Now in episode 12 after it looks like Queen Beryl is defeated after revealing that she was in love with Mamoru during their past lives and was stabbed by Venus. Mamoru runs away and Usagi changes after him where they go to the brisk north.

She continually tries to get Mamoru to come back to hear by using the locket that she has and then ultimately brings him into a kiss and then stabs herself. This is where the episode ends and I couldn’t help but have a look of shock on my face when that happened.

While I haven’t been overall really liking this series that part definitely makes me want to watched the next episode. But did you guys this of last weeks episode? Also would you guys like me to post more since I only post on here twice a week?

So leave your comments below regarding both questions and happy watching!

Monthly Girls Nozaki Kun Review

Published December 23, 2014 by Shay Taree

Alright so I had started watching Monthly Girls Nozaki Kun after reading the synopsis of it and I found it to be pretty interesting. Well I’m sorry to say that I didn’t find it very interesting. It’s not very often that I don’t finish an anime but this was one of those times.

At first I found the anime to fairly sweet with the main female Chiyo being very cute but also really funny and the main male lead Nozaki being the oblivious male he is and not noticing Chiyo. But Nozaki is pretty focus on his career of writing shoujo manga and plus Chiyo didn’t exactly phrase her confession correctly when she did by saying she was a fan of his instead of saying she had feelings for him.

Now while you could tell that Chiyo had feelings for Nozaki it just seemed like there wasn’t a lot of romance going on in this anime. I was anticipating for it to happen at least a little bit but after being more than halfway through I just completely gave up. Not only that but I found the story line hard to follow and at times not understanding what was going on at all or the plot of the story.

Now I know many people have enjoyed this anime and while I didn’t I may give the manga a chance to see if that is possibly better than the anime. So anyway if any of you have watched this anime then let me know your opinions of it and if I should give it another chance. For those of you who have read or are reading the manga let me know if it’s worth reading and better than the anime. Well that’s it for now so enjoy and happy watching.

Saddest Naruto Death

Published December 11, 2014 by Shay Taree

So since Naruto is now over I thought I would ask a question regarding what Naruto death did you find the saddest or most surprising.

For me the saddest death had to be Asuma’s since we saw him die and then Shikamaru’s reaction after Asuma’s death. Even though Asuma wasn’t a huge character in the Naruto universe he was still a memorable character.

The most surprising death has to be Neji’s mostly because Neji while he was apart of the Konoha 11 you kind of didn’t like him due to his attitude and how he treated Hinata. But Neji’s backstory was definitely pretty said and at the end when he dies for Hinata it made you really like him and realize that he wasn’t a bad guy.

So that for me was the most surprising and saddest deaths to me in Naruto. What about for the rest of you? Leave your comments below about what you think.

Happy watching!

Sailor Moon Crystal Episode 11 Review

Published December 9, 2014 by Shay Taree

So this weekend we were finally able to see a new episode of Sailor Moon Crystal and I enjoyed some aspects of this episode but there was also a few that I don’t enjoy.

The main thing that I did like about this episode was finally being able to see Sailor Venus’s transformation. It was the one transformation that many of us haven’t had a chance to see. But that was probably the only thing that I liked about this episode.

I was talking with one of my friends about this episode and we both couldn’t understand how Usagi didn’t get mad when her friends were all beaten up my Mamoru but when Luna got hurt she got angry. She should have gotten angry a lot sooner. Not only that but it took her so long to transform plus seeing the other transformation sequences just made everything really boring.

The sad thing is that Queen Beryl is actually kind of likable in this series. Maybe it’s because she hasn’t been in the series all that much I’m not entirely sure. But overall it was actually good to see her appear.

I think overall this was probably my least favorite episode so far since not a lot happened. But overall at this point I’ve been kind of disappointed in this series. I was very excited for the new series but with the route that they chose I’m not really liking it. None of the Sailor Scouts have a personality so far where you you can choose which scout you like the most. They all are the same and the show doesn’t have that comedic flair like the original one did. I’m hoping that the rest of the series gets a lot better or if there is another season that it get a better upgrade as far as story line and character personalities are concerned.

So there is my review I hope that you all enjoyed it and once again leave you comments below because I love to hear what you all think.

Happy watching!

Favorite Anime Love Story?

Published December 4, 2014 by Shay Taree

So this is a topic that I’ve thought about for a while and I was wondering what everyone’s favorite anime love story is. It doesn’t have to be an anime that is completely romance it could be an anime that is mostly action but has an underlying romantic tone to it.

For me I have two favorites! One is a totally romance anime and the other one is mostly action but has romantic moments in it.

The first one is Itazura Na Kiss. I literally stayed up all night to see how this anime ended. Basically it’s about a girl who isn’t all that smart and has a crush on a guy that is very smart and completely out of her league. They end up having to live under the same roof due to an earthquake destroying the house of the girl. Along the way they end up falling in love with each other but the best part is that it shows them getting married and they trials with being married as well as when they end up having a child. It was just a cute love story that I’m still not tired of.

The second love story that I really like is Inuyasha. Surprisingly enough even though there was a lot of action in this anime the love story between Inuyasha and Kagome was one that was wonderful and really fun to see. Also it had its frustrating moments when Inuyasha would do something stupid and make Kagome mad.

So those are the two anime’s that I absolutely love the romantic story that is involved. So leave you comments below on what is your favorite anime love story.

Naruto Manga Review!

Published December 2, 2014 by Shay Taree

Alright so now that the Naruto manga is now over I decided to do a review on it. So here goes! Also if you haven’t read the manga then warning there are SPOILERS!!! (Sorry)

I through enjoyed this manga but I can’t help but wish that each chapter was a lot longer! Each chapter was arounds 21-24 pages long which was not nearly long enough because it definitely kept me hanging. But in a way the shorter chapters were a good thing since it kept me excited to read the next chapter when it was released.

I also can’t help but say that the fact that the author killed off some pretty notable characters such as Jiraya, Neji, and Asuna was unbelievable and actually made the story even better. It also made me feel something for all the characters that were involved.

Speaking of which the one thing that really touched me was the back story behind what happened to Naruto in the first place. I couldn’t help but really feel for Naruto and get sad especially since Naruto didn’t ask for any of it and he was really picked on and shunned because of it. It made me wonder what I would do if I was in that situation which is a funny thought of you think about it. But overall that was one of things that I enjoyed.

The artwork of the manga was amazing and very easy to follow even when there was a fight scene going on. So thanks so much for that.

One thing I know that a few fans myself included are thankful for is the fact that several pairings that people wanted to see happen did end up happening. It felt good to know that us as the reader was right when it came to guessing or pairing up who was going to end up with who.

The only things I didn’t like about the manga was the ending. I feel like even after all those chapters that it was still rushed. We didn’t get to see what happened after Naruto and Sasuke’s fight, we didn’t get to see Kakashi as Hokage, we didn’t get to see how Naruto became Hokage and the drama that may have caused, and above all else we didn’t get to see our many favorite pairings in the manga finally get together. But hopefully that will all be answered in the last Naruto movie!

But overall the Naruto manga was very enjoyable to read and definitely a manga I’m sad to see end. But it had to end at some point. So for those of you who haven’t read it you should and for those of you who have what did you think of it? Leave your comments below with your opinions and let me know!

Happy watching/reading!
