Anime Status – November 09

Anime Status for November!! Yosh~

Oh lol the Stats for this month is definitely crazy~ Some shows that had such high spots, even those who made it in the upper half and the top 10 had fell down hard, while those that are much likely near the bottom last month skyrocketed a lot, so get ready for some surprises ^^. The first half was composed of such lame shows, so I’m gonna add a huge gap with it to the top ten. The top ten were fine, but not really that amazing, but like I said earlier, the Top 10 packs a few surprises ^^. The number one spot is quite obvious since that show is definitely and obviously the best show of the season hands down. I’ll also include some OVA/OADs in the countdown, as usual. New shows added, while there are also some that I dropped.

Dropped from last month/haven’t watched any single ep this month:

– Seiken no Blacksmith
– Seitokai no Ichizon
– Kampfer
– Kiddy Girl -And
– InuYasha (I keep missing it on Animax.. orz)

I thought I would drop more than those but it seems like things had gotten better for some so I have no choice but to continue some of them. That rounds up this list to have 20 shows ^^.

Anyway, let’s go on with the list~!

20: Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu 2 -dropping-

>> Last Month: 19 | Peak: 19

Disastrous. Disappointing because I thought the second season would focus more on Yuuto and Haruka’s relationship but they keep making every girl in this show wh0res on Yuuto’s harem and like, WTF.. And I hate how the household “helps” Yuuto but they always end up being the fucking cockblockers. This shit is officially irrelevant and I won’t be wasting time anymore with it.

19: Maiden Rose -OVA-

>> Re-entry OVA | Peak: 10

WTF is with the animation in this yaoi? Really cringe-worthy xD. I just can’t take this one very seriously tbh… There’s also close to none sex scenes in this OVA. I thought that the first one was hotter. Again, the best part has got to be the chibi extra. I always enjoy that~ So cute <33.

18: Zan Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei -OAD-

>> New Entry OVA

Boring OAD. Seriously, I felt like fast-forwarding every scene and I almost felt asleep. I also found the jokes in this one quite dull. Overall, skippable OAD that isn’t anything big if missed.

17: 11eyes -dropping-

>> Last Month: 11 | Peak: 11

Ugh. I can’t fiind anything worth watching or looking forward to every week with this show anymore. It’s like a waste of time watching a crappy eroge adaptation. I should really learn a lesson and keep away from watching these adaptations weekly and keep an eye on them first and see if they’re really worthwhile. Also, gawd the main girls are so annoying. There’s an annoying emo brat and there’s a s!ut. WTF.

16: FAIRY TAIL -dropping-

>> Last Month: 14 | Peak: 14

Like I said, I’ll just wait to hear Erza and then drop this show. Ok, I’m done with it. Might pick it up again when it’s over to marathon it.

15: Trapeze

>> Last Month: 10 | Peak: 10

I don’t really get the appeal of this show =__=. I don’t feel anything with its characters, nor get interested with them. I only like the visuals though, and the animal heads are really nice symbolisms. I also like the nurse’s attitude. Might still continue this one but it’s not much of a chore to watch.

16: Letter Bee

>> Last Month: 06 | Peak: 06

God, I don’t know what to say… This show sucked this month. TOO MUCH CRYING. Lag, it’s ok to cry sometimes but not all the fucking time! Instead of making me feel lonely for Lag, I must admit that I’m actually laughing on him because it’s awkwardly funny. Also, it took a month just to build up one thing for this show. Ugh, the only thing I’m enjoying in this show right now is Niche <3

14: Umineko no Naku Koro ni

>> Last Month: 02 | Peak: 02

After being so darn close to the top spot, Umineko finds itself falling down really hard, losing 12 spots to 14. Well, this arc had been such a letdown. Too much nonsense (well, more nonsense than what this show is already having) I also lol’d when Shota-taro gets raep’d by the Stakes, and I also don’t get the point why they added another Siesta =_=; I love Juuza though. Ange, I thought I would like her but she turns out to be quite boring… but anyway, it seems like they’re building something awesome since EP4 is a long arc. Hoping it’ll redeem itself this December ^^.

13: Miracle Train

>> Last Month: 21 | Peak: 13

UNEXPECTEDLY, Miracle Train turns out to be watchable this month. Still lulz though..  but looks like I’ll keep watching it all along. I love how they’re showing a little bit of hints here and there, I hope it would now start to make focus on the Trains boys especially Roppongi.

12: Nyan Koi

>> Last Month: 09 | Peak: 09

Nyan Koi is a nice show. I really want to hate it so much, but there are still some things that keeps me hanging around with this. How many episodes does this show has? If it’s around 12 I’m keeping this, but no-no if this would last for around 20+.

11: Kobato

>> Last Month: 07 | Peak: 07

Probably the pic above was Kobato’s face after getting kicked out of the top ten list. Sorry Kobato, I love your super cuteness and light moments, but lately this show had been so DULL DULL DULL.

—-MILE-LONG GAP—-

Seriously, the Top 10 are the only shows that matter.

10: White Album Season 2

>> New Entry

I was really thinking twice about picking up White Album again… and oh boy good thing I caught up with this one. Well, Touya is now becoming School Days’ Makoto’s best friend with his asshole-ness and that’s probably not surprising. What I love is how this show is something I really love to hate so much, so plus points for it being so effective. Btw, Eiji is the star of this show xDD.

09: Hetalia Axis Powers

>> Last Month: 08 | Peak: 1

Hetalia was pretty enjoyable on the first half of the month (Russia and his sisters are made of so much win. Belarus = xDD), until we get into the Liechtenstein episodes. Ugh, it’s not even funny DEEN. All episodes with Liechtenstein in them are just as bland and lame as her seiyuu. Oh well, this still gets into the Top ten because of Matthew (Canada), he’s so adorable!!!

08: Kuroshitsuji -OVA-

>> New Entry OVA

I enjoyed this OVA to freaking bits xD. Oh Grell, you are so love <33 xDD. I also love Undertaker and Lau’s scene where Lau’s molesting him xD. Lastly, oh my god I was very intrigued when they showed “To be Continued?” at the end of this OVA. GAWD I CAN’T WAIT FOR THE NEW SEASON/SERIES/WHATEVER!!!

07: Bakemonogatari

>> Re-Entry | Peak: 1

I find it funny that what I’ve found really interesting on Tsubasa’s arc is everything NOT Tsubasa. I enjoyed more of Mayoi getting molested by Loliconraragi, and I absolutely enjoyed Senjougahara’s screentime as usual. And then here comes Tsubasa, and I’ve gotten dead bored with the extremely long conversation with him and Araragi. Gawd, at least her neko form seems cool. Looking forward to the next episode, whenever that’ll be.

06: Sasameki Koto

>> Last Month: 18 | Peak: 06

Yup. Sasameki Koto definitely skyrockets 12 spots up into the number 6 spot. You know why, because it definitely started off dull, but as it goes, specially this month, it turns out to be such gold. This month is definitely awesome for Sasameki Koto. The trap twist was so hilarious xDD. “Akemi” gives Mariya (+Holic) a run for the money on best trap of the year in my year-end post right now xD. I’m also liking Sumika more than I thought I would be at first look. Overall, this yuri show is just entertaining to bits and it keeps staying strong until now.

——————–

HOT FIVE!

——————–

05: Tatakau Shisho: The Book of Bantorra

>> Last Month: 05 | Peak: 05

Lots of characters, lots of storyline, lots of really confusing stuff, but that definitely keeps Bantorra at the top 5. It could have worked on with the layering of stories and the coherence, but I guess this show is such a breath of fresh air. I’m loving Matt btw. He’s such an awesome character. I hope they’ll show up a funny extra on how he got dumped by Hamyuts xDD. Btw, where’s Volken now??

04: Darker Than Black 2: Comet of Gemini

>> Last Month: 01 | Peak: 01

DtB bids farewell on the top spot this month because I must say that I felt that this month isn’t as much as amazing as the previous. Well, I’m happy that we got a little bit of Yin and all (possibly Hei shaves next ep.. omg please) but this season has a very limited episode count, and with all that’s happening, I don’t know now. The latest episode was a bit good though, so after all the build-up on the past weeks, I’m sure that DtB will blow us all away with what’ll happen next.

03: Kimi ni Todoke

>> Last Month: 03 | Peak: 03

I swear I would make KnT on a tie with the number 1 holder if all episodes this month were like the latest two. I absolutely enjoyed episodes 7 and 8 to bits. Episode 7 might be one of my favorite episodes in the entire Fall season so far to be honest. I also LOVELOVELOVE how Hirano Aya voices Kurumi. But let’s not forget the lame drama earlier that felt really ‘meh’… Overall, KnT still continues to be great and gives off a really awesome feeling when watching it (hey, 3 is still a very high spot!)

02: Sora no Otoshimono

>> Last Month: 15 | Peak: 02

OMG. Yeah, who knew this was coming?? xD. Sora no Otoshimono turns out to be one of my favorite shows this season, and I generally HATE fanservice shows. This one has got to be a well-done fanservice show. Let’s face it, when you’re making an anime adaptation of some pointless ecchi show, you better make it stand out among the other craptons out there… and Sora no Otoshimono has it. Some things were just straight-on stupid, but I must say that Kampfer, Haruka and such are irrelevant compared to this. Consistently fantastic animation, a side shipping to ride on (I love the senpais so much, they’re awesome!) and it gives me a good giggle.

01: Aoi Bungaku

>> Last Month: 04 | Peak: 01

Well obviously this is the best show of the season, and Aoi Bungaku deserves the top spot bar none. The first one is my least favorite arc, but it’s still fantastic. Then here comes the second arc, and it was a total mindscrew. Very awesome. The third arc comes, and then the way of storytelling was just mind blowing. Now we’re at the fourth story, and it seems like it’ll be the best arc yet. There should be more like this. Aoi Bungaku is a total gem this seaon, if not, this year.
