The start of the school is here and with that my free time went down pretty hard, nothing (hopefully) will stop me from watching anime tho!
My post last week, and everything is in order of enjoyment.
Aikatsu Stars! (Episode 37/100)
Only an episode this week, but it was a nice Christmas one! Together with the mandatory "we wish you a merry christmas" song we also saw some heavy hints on Subaru liking Yume, I wonder if the series will push the romance or it's just a bait.
Provisional Score: 8.75/10
Motto! Magical Doremi (Episodes 5-10/50)
This season is nailing it so hard so far, the first patissiere exam had a very touching moment and it also had nice episodes like the later one which explained nicely how kids grow as time passes and to not be embarassed for being ahead/behind the rest in the process like a girl of the class was for growing faster than the rest, so well handled.
Provisional Score: 8/10
Smile Precure! (Episodes 1-14/48)
And after having watched two of the most serious Precure story-wise, it's time to see if I like a more lighthearted one with Smile... and I'm definitely doing so far!
Smile Precure is a way more CGDCT comedy oriented anime than the previous ones and it's succeeding nicely with the humor, the cast is likeable and the comedy coming from them (especially Miyuki, the protagonist) is very funny, the villains can also give competition to the Team Rocket when it comes to stupidness and I laugh with them as well, it's so easy to watch one episode after the other.
This anime also added a fun detail with Cure Peace's transformation scenes, which includes a rock-paper-scissors (like the second ending of GochiUsa does) where you can participate... and god, I suck so hard, currently 0 wins, 5 ties and 5 losses against her, I have the feeling that if I started to spam just one of the options she would never use the one to lose with xDDD
Provisional Score: 7.75/10
Seizei Ganbare! Mahou Shoujo Kurumi (ONA, Episode 13/25)
"That crepe is filled with deadly poison!"
"Say whuaat!?" moffu moffu
Nothing stops a hungry magical girl, nothing.
Provisional Score: 7.5/10
AKB0048 (Episodes 1-2/13)
Symphogear: January 6th, 2012
AKB0048: April 29th, 2012
Satelight sure went wild with music anime that year, because this one seems to be pretty crazy too (hopefully I will like it more q_q).
Those first two episodes sure were something, people moved to other planets and the goverment doesn't like fun so entertainment got banned, now idols do guerrilla concerts and the military chases them but the girls also can use powers or something and can fight back and wtf???? But they were entertaing and I found the drama each of the main girls have to be pretty good, the setting is ridiculous and I'm curious if I will enjoy the execution.
Provisional Score: 7/10
Next week is the start of the Texhnolyze rewatch and I plan to give it a chance, I'm clueless about if I will like it or not because the only anime it gets compared to that I watched is Lain, which I found decent but too confusing for me to truly enjoy it, let's see if I end up enjoying it.
Thanks for reading and...
