Akame Ga Kill Full Review

Published March 27, 2015 by Shay Taree

So I finally after more than a week have finished Akame Ga Kill and omg this show had me going until the very end. There is so much death and killing in this show that I definitely need to watch something happy next. 

Many of you were right that I shouldn’t get attached to any of the characters and I had to keep repeating that to myself so that I didn’t. Unfortunately I did get quite attached to a few of the characters. Sorry but I couldn’t help it.
But the action in the show was awesome and while then action was literally everything I did really love the sweet and funny moments in the show. Including this sweet moment between Mine and Tatsumi. 
  
The two fights that I loved the most was the fight between Akame and Kurome 
  
and also the fight between Akame and Esdeath. Both fights were amazing and made me wish that I could fight like that. 
  
The ending of the show kind of strange to me but it did complete the series rather well. But I think I may have to read the manga of the series to see if anything happens next.
Overall I give this series a 9/10. The action was awesome and the music definitely fit the series well. This show would keep anyone interested and watching from beginning to end. 
But let me know what you thought of the show and this review. Comment down below and like always I will answer back. 

Anime Or Manga?

Published March 25, 2015 by Shay Taree

I know that many people may have a preference when it comes to this but then there are also others that may not. What I’m talking about is which do you like better anime or manga?

  
For me I actually like anime’s more than manga’s. I think it’s because I watch more anime than I read manga. Now manga is definitely not a bad thing since that is where a lot of the anime we know and love come from.
  
I think what also makes me like it more is the fact that when it comes to action sequences I’m able to see it all happen fluidly instead of how it’s done in the manga.
But which do you like better anime or manga or do you like both equally? Leave a comment down below and like always I will answer back.

What Anime Would Make A Good Live Action Movie?

Published March 18, 2015 by Shay Taree

So I had this discussion with a few of my co workers concerning what anime’s would make a good live action movie. I know many people saw the disaster that was Dragon Ball Evolution



and then there was also the whole Ghost In The Shell live action that is planned.

 But what other anime’s may possibly make a good live action

For me I told my co workers that honestly most shows would look good as a live action if the animated show itself didn’t have a lot of effects. Some effects can be done really well so I guess it mostly pertains to what studio does the live action. But any way I think the Rurouni Kenshin

makes a good live action, most of the shoujo anime’s that I’ve seen definitely like Wolf Girl & Black Prince

, and possibly even Yu Yu Hakusho. 

Now I know that a lot of Japanese studios have made live actions of many of our favorite shows but what I’m talking about are American studios getting a hold of these shows and doing the live action. I say this because I’ve noticed that many American studios don’t seem to understand anime and end up doing it wrong or just kind of silly.
But what do you all think? What anime do you think an American studio can do well as a a live action. Leave your comments down below and let me know. Like always I will answer back.

Which Anime Industry Job Would You Like?

Published March 17, 2015 by Shay Taree

Everyone of course wants to have that job where they are happy to go to work everyday or they have that job where it centers around their hobby or passion. So since many of us look at anime or manga as our hobby or passion what if anime could be your job?

I know that there are many different jobs within that particular field so which one would you love to do the most?
For me I would have to say either voice actor for anime or a script writer for anime. I like the idea of being a voice actor

because every time I hear an anime and hear the voices it makes me wonder how the actor came up with that voice, where they places that voice within their throat, and also how difficult is that voice to maintain. It’s definitely an art form that I love and would love to explore more.
The second one I’m interested in is a script writer 

and I just love the idea of being that puppet master and figuring out what should be said and why. Seeing if a joke transfers over well or just being able to figure out how a specific character with a specific personality would say a line or how they would say it.
So what would you all choose. I would love to know. So comment down below and like always I will always answer back.

Akame Ga Kill First Impressions

Published March 12, 2015 by Shay Taree

So I’m half way through Akame Ga Kill and this show is ridiculous and has already taken me through a range of emotions. So please no spoilers. I’ve been sad, upset, mad, laughed, almost cried, and of course been disgusted at the violence. But here is the synopsis of the show: 

In a fantasy world, fighter Tatsumi sets out for the Capitol to earn money for his starving village, and finds a world of unimaginable corruption, all spreading from the depraved Prime Minister who controls the child Emperor’s ear. After nearly becoming a victim of this corruption himself, Tatsumi is recruited by Night Raid, a group of assassins dedicated to eliminating the corruption plaguing the Capitol by mercilessly killing those responsible.

Now the violence in the show definitely doesn’t bother me but its so crazy how crazy the people in this show is. Literally every episode is filled with people with different weapons and abilities but that’s what makes it interesting.

Also I’ve realized why when I decided to watch this show quite a few people told me not to get attached to any of the characters but I did. I know I shouldn’t have but I couldn’t help it and I definitely have a favorite character. Of course it’s Akame 

because she is sooooo cool! I love her Imperial Arms but once again I’m only halfway through the series so we will see what happens.
Surprisingly I also really like Tatsumi. 

Even though he does kind of act like the typical hero in a few actions shows I’ve watched. He can be used for comedic effect in some scenes, he can be fierce in battle, and he can be sensitive during those hard moments. But overall I think I like him because he had all these elements and he also reminds of Ichigo from Bleach. Let me know if anyone that has seen the show thinks this too. 
The humor in this show is awesome! I’ve actually really laughed out loud during a few moments in this show and most have to do with either Tatsumi or Mine. They are just amazing when it comes to comedic relief.

But so far I’m really liking this show and I can’t wait to see what happens next. So I’ll give it so far an 8/10. I’ll put out a complete review once I finish this show so look out for that later.  So comment down below what you thought of this first impression of Akame Ga Kill. Also like always if you comment I will always comment back.

Sailor Moon Crystal Episode 17 Review!

Published March 9, 2015 by Shay Taree
So of course this was another week where we were all treated to a new episode of Sailor Moon Crystal. Let me just say that this Black Moon Arc is definitely so much better than the first arc of this series. But let’s get into the review of this episode shall we.
So this episode started off with what is left of the Sailor Scouts still trying to figure out what to do regarding now both Sailor Mars and Sailor Mercury being kidnapped by the Black Moon. Usagi is of course depressed but surprisingly Chibi-Usa actually is trying her best to cheer Usagi up. She even lets her borrow her cute little Tuxedo Mask doll she got from Mamoru. 

Also Chibi-Usa seems to be getting rather attached to Usagi which I’m actually really liking. It’s just so sweet seeing them interact with each other especially when they are at the arcade and get matching Sailor V dolls. 
But this episode we got to meet Petz one of the Specter sisters. 

Also this episode we got to know more about Makoto which was amazing. I’ve been wanting to know more about each scout and this arc is definitely doing that. Anyway Makoto ends up catching a cold and even while sick she was kick some major Black Moon butt. 

But in the end she does end up getting captured as well. Which now leaves 2 scouts left.
I definitely can’t wait to the next episode where they try to figure out if Chibi-Usa is friend or foe. Overall I give this episode a 9/10. I was happy to see more of Chibi-Usa and find out more about Makoto.
But let me know what you all thought of this episode and what you think of the series so far overall. Like always I will always answer back to comments.

Favorite Anime Opening Or Ending Currently! 

Published March 7, 2015 by Shay Taree

So my favorite anime opening or ending changes all the time depending on what anime I’m watching or just finished watching. So at them moment the song I chose is from Sword Art Online II and that’s because I just finished watching it not long that long ago.

The song I really like is the 3rd ending song that plays during the Mother Rosario Arc. It’s called Shirushi and it’s by LiSA.
The song fits what’s going on in the show at the time so well so it actually made me sad when I heard it. Plus the piano playing at the beginning is what definitely caught my ear.
But what anime opening or ending are you playing on repeat at the moment? I would love to know! So comment down below what it is and let me know what you think of the song I chose. Like always I will always answer back when you comment.

Myanimelist.net Review

Published March 5, 2015 by Shay Taree

Hey all so I decided today to do a review on an anime application/ website that I used to frequent often but is actually really cool. That website is myanimelist.net.

I had actually found out about the website in 2009 when I was getting back into anime and it was just a great website to be able to list the anime I’ve seen, ones I want to see, and ones I’ve dropped. Also it was a great way for me to be able to see what others were watching and come across new anime to watch.

You are able to make a profile and start listing your anime from there. If you have a profile your able to download the app and then you have access to the catalog of anime they have listed as well at the personal list that you have created. Now the app only works in keeping track of your anime it hasn’t exactly been able to keep in contact with those you’ve friended on there but that’s okay. 

But overall if your looking for an app where you can find some great new anime to watch, make new friends, and also discuss you favorite anime’s then definitely check out myanimelist.net
I’ve also only scratched the surface of what this website and app can do but I definitely love it. I give the website and app an 8/10 because while it does have its glitches sometimes it definitely serves its purpose.
So comment down below what you think of this website and app. Also let me know if you have an account I would love to follow many of you. Also like I always I will always comment back.

Kuroko’s Basketball Episode 7 Review

Published February 25, 2015 by Shay Taree
Alright so we finally got past what seemed like to me a long game between Akashi and Midorima. While it was exciting it felt good to get to the other matches during the tournament.
This new match was between Kise’s team and the Kuroko’s team. It was really cool to watch this match since they haven’t really faced each other in a match since a practice game where Serien beat Kise’s team. 
Well you could definitely tell that Kise was ready to get this game underway since the look in his eye showed that he was ready.

Kise immediately showed that he was ready by using the copied moves the Generation of Miracles and doing the impossible such as stopping Kuroko’s Phantom Shot. Which Murisakibara couldn’t even do.

Also he ended up even using Akashi’s emperor eye on Kagami! Talk about a wow moment!

But overall I can’t wait until the next episode and I give this episode a 8/10. An 8 mostly due to the flash back at the beginning which was boring but after that it was completely action until the end.
If you saw this weeks episode leave your comments below and if you didn’t then still leave your comments below. I would love to hear all comments. 
Happy Watching! ~ Anime Reviewer Girl
