Summary: The goddess of four nations agree to make peace with each and stop the war that is fighting over share energy.
   
First impression score: 80 - OMG they made an anime of this...

Personal comments: If you haven't realized, this is a story about personified gaming consoles. Noire's Lastation is the Playstation 3 (you ought to be able to recognize this without any assistance); Blanc's Lowee is clearly the Wii; if Vert's nation, Leanbox is not enough of a clue, her green color can serve as the extra proof that she represent Xbox 360. Neptune, I heard is supposed to represent the unreleased next generation console from SEGA, who pulled themselves out of console business after Dreamcast. This is in my opinion is not anything serious to be looked upon. Maybe they'll get something good out of it, but I'm not looking forward to it.

Summary: The third season of the series.
   
First impression score: 80 - More spirits to catch
 
Personal comments: To some, this is an awesome series. But I have long lost interest in the story during season two. Don't get me wrong, it's not that this is a bad series, I'm just not into it. But I do think this is a good series.

Summary: A kid who uses tarots for fortune telling possesses some super power has to do with tarots..
   
First impression score: 80 - Children's fantasy, Card Captor Style

Personal comments: It's very childish, at least that's how I feel. Come to think of it, once upon a time I actually liked Mermaid Melody which in my opinion was even more childish than this. However, I have since grown out of it and these children's anime doesn't really impress me any more. If you happen to be still into these kind of stuff, much like bronies out there, you might actually enjoy this.

Summary: A dude starts enrollment in an agriculture school and he had no idea what he has gotten himself into...
   
First impression score: 80 - Moyashimon wanttobe

Personal comments: So if you've ever seen Moyashimon, you'd know just how an anime about agriculture can be so awesomely fun to watch and educational at the same time. That's actually what I was wishing for when I learned that Gin no Saji is also a story has something to do with agriculture. But I was wrong. Gin no Saji is nowhere near the caliber of Moyashimon. I guess the author of Fullmetal Alchemist (who is the author of Gin no Saji manga) isn't just quiet as fitted doing this kind of work. It may get better later, but I don't think I want to wait for it...

Summary: A girl shut in who is in denial desperately trying to become "normal" when she starts high school.
   
First impression score: 81 - Same ol' shut-in concept, it's getting a little old

Personal comments: Lately, I've been seeing more and more animes that recycle ideas. Most of them didn't even attempt to try to be different. New concepts seems to be a rare commodity nowadays. But there is still a chance that we might be able to get something fresh out of this, though I wouldn't hold my breath for it...

[New][July 2013] High School DxD New

Japanese title: ハイスクールD×D NEW
Info: http://myanimelist.net/anime/15451/High_School_DxD_New
Download via: http://nyaa.eu/
Genres: Fantasy / Action / Ecchi
I've watched: 1 episode

Summary: The second season of the boobilious High School DxD. 
   
First impression score: 80 - Typical, very typical

Personal comments: Though the original High School DxD is no masterpiece, in my opinion, it's actually pretty good for an anime that is filled with ecchi content. Unlike Sekirei, it didn't have much of an elaborated story per se, nor does it have the deep to the root bizarreness in concept like Qwaser. But it was executed well enough that you actually care for the characters. I think what has it going for HSDxD is the fact it's not trying to hide what itself really is. The main character constantly getting into lewd perverted fantasies which matches the surrounding environment he's in. Unlike some others, such as High School of the Dead, where they try to hide what they really are because no character would acknowledge what kind of perverted situation they were in nor what lewd act they have just performed, yet still constantly show you the most perverted camera angle they can get. That kind of self-denial really infuriates me because they just assume us audiences are just ignorant fools.

So by being completely open about the underlying tone of the story, the focus of the story is way better because the main plot doesn't get too distracted and people could actually enjoy both aspect at the same time. But many near ecchi that had a good first season suffered significant second season setback because for some reason they all inadvertently think they need to out-"ecchi" their first season. Unfortunately, I'm seeing some signs of such trending here in the first episode. Let's just hope it'll make an return and go back to the same level of the first season.

Summary: A high school girl went to Great Britain for exchange student program. Now she's back in Japan for the new semester. A surprise is awaiting for her at school.
   
First impression score: 82 - Soft Comedy

Personal comments: I actually didn't expect much from this simply because of the look and the topic. However, to my surprise, it's actually a lot more interesting than I thought, mostly due to the intermittent comedic moment. I'm actually interested in seeing a bit more of this.

First impression score: 80 - Interesting twist, with yaoi tendency

Personal comments: Honestly, the first two minutes almost made me think this is going to be a yaoi anime. Then things start to blow up, it now looks more like an anime made for female audiences.
