First impression score: 58 - Yeah...it's just...bad...

Personal comments: I have to say, I was actually expecting worse. But as it is, it's already bad enough. I don't think I'm going to go through the second season of this atrocity...

First impression score: 78 - Another all-girl anime about...Nothing

Personal comments: If you have seen A-Channel, Lucky Star, Azumangadaiou, or animes alike. You'd know exactly what this is like. If not...well, either you've been watching anime under a rock where you know nothing but one type, or you're new enough to the world of anime where you're about to pop your cherry on a new anime genre.

First impression score: 83 - More Pretty Boy Pop Music

Personal comments: I was a bit afraid to start this series because I actually liked the first series of this show and did not know how this is going to turn out. After seeing the first two episodes, it seems that it's more or less the same show except now it's in a record label training school instead of pop idol school... (-_-')

[New][April 2013] Namiuchigiwa no Muromi-san

Japanese title: 波打際のむろみさん
Info: http://myanimelist.net/anime/16910/Namiuchigiwa_no_Muromi-san
Watch online: http://www.crunchyroll.com/muromi-san
Genres: Comedy
I've watched: 2 episode

Summary: A guy fished up a mermaid named Muromi...
   
First impression score: 84 - Strange looking, but somewhat interesting

Personal comments: I see some similarity of this and Squid Girl--both are just mostly mindless comedies that are very fast in pacing. Normally I'm not too fond of this kind of pure comedy that are just mindless and pokes fun at random. I'm rather picky when it comes to comedy, but sometimes I could also be attracted by some most random weird comedies out there. This apparently is one of them that scratches me on just the right spot. Though that may change down the road if they repeat the same ol' tactics too many times, I'd be tired of it.

[New][April 2013] Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai.

Japanese title: 俺の妹がこんなに可愛いわけがない。
Info: http://myanimelist.net/anime/13659/Ore_no_Imouto_ga_Konnani_Kawaii_Wake_ga_Nai.
Download available through: http://nyaa.eu/
Genres: Drama
I've watched: 3 episode

Summary: Our favorite siscon story is making a return :-)
   
First impression score: 84 - Still Intriguing

Personal comments: In my opinion, this second season of Ore Imouto so far looks way better than Tomodachi compare to their first season. One thing I've noticed about this second season, is that Kyouseki seems have regressed on his maturity. My impression of him from the first season is a highly reliable mature big brother, where in this second season, he seems to be less reliable, less mature, and doing some pretty stupid stuff. Does anybody else feel the same?

[New][April 2013] Hataraku Maou-sama

Japanese title: はたらく魔王さま!
Info: http://myanimelist.net/anime/15809/Hataraku_Maou-sama!

Genres: Fantasy / Slice of Life
I've watched: 3 episode

Summary: The daemon king is losing his war against the hero (oh, here we go again >.<), when he tries to escape through the portal, he arrives at earth in Tokyo Japan.
   
First impression score: 87 - Something Different

Personal comments: It's kind of interesting, but at the same time, hard to image demon king would just lose his "evil"-ness so easily. Why was he the daemon king to begin with?

[New][April 2013] Suisei no Gargantia

Japanese title: 翠星のガルガンティア
Info: http://myanimelist.net/anime/16524/Suisei_no_Gargantia

Genres: Scifi / Mecha
I've watched: 1 episode

Summary: A mecha pilot during a space battle had some problem while traveling through a wormhole where he ended up in a planet unknown to him.
   
First impression score: 88 - A sudden shift from space combat to something different

Personal comments: Even though most of the first episode is space combat, this does look rather interesting.

[New][April 2013] Shingeki no Kyoujin

Japanese title: 進撃の巨人
Info: http://myanimelist.net/anime/16498/Shingeki_no_Kyojin
Watch online: http://www.crunchyroll.com/attack-on-titan
Genres: Action / Fantasy
I've watched: 1 episode

Summary: In a city that is constantly being attacked by "titans"--a giant looks somewhat like human except much larger (and uglier) who eats human, people are desperately trying to find out what these titans are.
   
First impression score: 86 - That's something different

Personal comments: I've read some of the manga, which looks quite interesting. You can tell from the look that the massive budget of Production I.G. is backing this project. This is definitely a keeper.
