Sailor Moon a Crystal Episode 19 Review

Published April 6, 2015 by Shay Taree

So this week we were able to get a new episode of Sailor Moon Crystal and this episode I must say was amazing.

This episode we saw Usagi, Minako, Mamoru, Luna, Artemis, and Chibi-Usa travel forward in time to 30th century Tokyo. Plus we also got to meet the amazing Sailor Pluto. 
  
I really liked this episode mostly because you were able to get more insight as to why Chibi-Usa went back in time to get the Silver Crystal. Plus this episode wasn’t entirely focused on fighting the Black Moon Clan. Even though they did show up during the middle of the episode it was a quick battle which caused some excitement but didn’t over power the episode.
  
Overall though I give this episode a 7.5/10. I was interested in the episode and loved finally seeing another Sailor Scout. But I’m mostly excited for the next episode that is to come.
But what did everyone else think of the weeks episode. Comment down below and like always I will answer back.

Mamotte Lollipop Anime Review!

Published April 3, 2015 by Shay Taree

Hello everyone!!! I’m currently in the middle of watching an anime but I didn’t want to leave you guys hanging with out an anime review. So I decided to post a review on the anime Mamotte Lollipop also called Save Me Lollipop.

  
Mamotte Lolipop is an adorable show that had me laughing from beginning to end and it also had quite a few sweet moments between the characters as well. Oh and don’t forget that it also had some drama.
  
Here is the synopsis:
Nina, thinking it was a lolly, swallows an object called “Crystal Pearl”. But the candy turns out to be a test for the magicians. To retrieve the crystal, a special medicine has to be made so now Zero and Ichii, the magicians, have to protect her from others while waiting for the medicine to be completed.”

The anime was dubbed by Funimation and I watched the dub and found it to be done pretty well. You can find it on Funimation’s website for streaming as well as I’m sure on Hulu. So check it out. 

I also read the manga under the same name as well as the sequel and both were done well and the anime followed the manga very well. 
  
Overall I give this anime a 9/10 due to how cute and funny it was and also the sweet moments that made me go awwww or made my mouth drop open. 

So thanks for reading this review and let me know what you think. Like always comment down below and I will answer back.

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. 

Sailor Moon Crystal Episode 18 Review

Published March 23, 2015 by Shay Taree

So I just finished watching the newest episode of Sailor Moon Crystal and I actually enjoyed the episode.

It started off with kind of a quick recap with what happened during the last episode with Sailor Jupiter now being kidnapped. Also then Venus decides that once and for all they have to figure out if Chibi-Usa is friend or foe. Although they find out in the most unusual way which was by using one of Petz Malefic Black Crystal earrings. Chibi-Usa became scared as soon as she saw it in Mamoru’s hand.
In this episode we are also introduced to Calaveras who is the medium of the Spectre Sister. She uses her channeling powers to lure out the Sailor Scouts and is triumphant when Minako does appear.
  
Also Chibi-Usa takes Usagi’s brooch and that’s causes a whole bunch of havoc especially when they are confronted by Rubeus.
  
The best thing though had to be when Mamoru uses a new power that he awakens. I was so happy to finally see him using something besides those roses. 
  
But overall I enjoyed this episode and can’t wait to see Sailor Pluto in the next episode. 
  
I give this weeks episode a 7/10. It was still very run of the mill but it did answer a few questions that arose in the last episode. But what did you all think of this weeks episode? Comment down below and like always I will 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.

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.

Sword Art Online II Review

Published March 3, 2015 by Shay Taree
So literally as I’m writing this I have quite a few tears in my eyes. Thankfully I didn’t completely lose it because I didn’t feel like re-doing my eye makeup but still I was pretty close.
But anyways I just finished season 2 of Sword Art Online and I actually really enjoyed it but honestly there were moments where I was like seriously where is this going. This was mostly during the later half of the show so don’t worry.
Now the beginning half of the show I enjoy so much because there was so much action. Kirito of course has to go inside another VRMMO game to figure out how players are once again not only dying in the game but also in real life. The game is called Gun Gale Online or GGO. Now I will say that the funniest moment is when Kirito sees what his avatar looks like. That moment had me laughing for a while. There he meets a girl and she has her own crazy past that honestly if that was me I have no idea what I would do. 

Now the 2nd half of the series is where things became very slow at parts. I wasn’t for sure what the point of it was but all I know if that there was a lot of drama going on especially concerning Asuna and her mother. It wasn’t until the last 5 or 6 episodes that I started to get back into it again when another player by the name of Yuuki and her guild the Sleeping Knights were introduced.

Now this is where things got really sad and I’m definitely not going to spoil it for you so don’t worry but definitely go and watch it to find out what happens.
One of the things that I really liked about this series though that I didn’t notice until the end was that the later half mostly focused on Asuna and Kirito became a background character which I actually really liked. We as the viewers got to know more about Asuna, her personality, and also her fears. Which in the end made Asuna more relatable because you realized that she isn’t perfect and had her faults too.

Now the music in season 2 was actually pretty good. I loved the opening and ending songs but I especially loved the ending song later half of the series since it for the atmosphere of what was going on during the time and made you sadder. 
Overall I really enjoyed this series even though there were moments where I wanted to just stop watching it. So I’ll give this show an 8/10 since the slow parts in the middle was a hurdle to get through but then the show redeemed itself towards the end. Now I’m going to go and watch something funny so I can stop being sad about this show.
So like always comment down below what you thought about Sword Art Online II and also this review. I will always answer 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
