Should I gush like a fangirl for another Yuki Midorikawa manga getting animated? I have more than a soft spot for her work and I’ve actually read Hotarubi, which is a sweet one volume manga containing four different heart-wrenching stories centered around love. From the summary at least, it seems they will be only covering the second story of Hotaru named as “Into the Forest of Fireflies’ Light”. One day while strolling around, a six-year-old Hotaru gets lost into the Yamagami Forest, which is known for its spirits and monsters. She meets a young boy named Gin, who helps her get out of the forest but there’s a catch: she can’t touch him because of a curse on him. You see, he’s a youkai so if a human touches him, he will cease to exist. The story is about discovering friendship, where you least expect it and going beyond it with a sweetness that is known of Midorikawa’s work. It also helps that this is Brains Base and Takahiro Omori (he’s such a Midorikawa fanboy! Just look at the three seasons of Natsume Yuujinchou) is directing it so this will make you cry and feel all emotional because there will be many heart warming moments. Kouki is a good choice for Gin because he sounds young fitting the profile, while Ayane Sakura is new but at least her Merry Nightmare was quite convincing in Yumekui Merry. I can only hope she has the range of voice to portray different age transitions of Hotaru. |

Megumi Hayashibara as Rune Balot Hiroki Touchi as Doctor Easter Kazuya Nakai as Shell Septinos Norito Yashima as Œufcoque Penteano Tsutomu Isobe as Dimsdale Boiled Akiko Katsuta as Octavia Daisuke Namikawa as Tweedledum Kinryuu Arimoto as Professor Faceman Norio Wakamoto as Medium the Fingernail Takaya Hashi as Ashley Harvest Toshiko Fujita as Bell Wing Yumiko Kobayashi as Tweedledee Trailer: Show ▼

While the first movie wasn’t amazing by a long shot, it certainly has a few things going for it. The First Compression movie introduces us to the young prostitute Rune Balot, and then immediately kills her. Luckily, this is the magical realm of THE FUTURE and people can be revived. Of course, the research is still shaky, so Balot is their first guinea pig. Armed with the power to control electronics and a super-intelligent mouse that can change form into anything, she agrees to help the man who brought her back to life. The Second Combustion movie covers what happens after Boiled, a henchman of the mysterious Shell who tried to kill Balot at the beginning of the movie, is seconds away from completely obliterating Balot. The first movie was a bit of a slow start, and mostly focusing on bonding Balot with her mouse companion Oeufcoque (I DON’T KNOW why they picked these names). There are a lot of cool ideas, but I often feel like they don’t know what to do with them. The presentation is off, and I feel very detached from the plot as I watch it. However, it kept me watching to the end (mostly because it’s so damn weird) so I’ll be checking this out to resolve the cliffhanger. As an added bonus, Megumi Hayashibara (Lina Inverse, Faye Valentine, Rei Ayanami) is voicing the main girl and she’s one of my absolute favourite female seiyuu. A nice little bonus…at least for me.

OEEEE FCOQUE! However you pronounced it, it ends up being quiet rude. I can already see Touma going, “FUKOU DAAAA!” in the background but as I’m not the novel writer Tow Ubukata, who’s aiming for the Nobel Prize for Literature, I would let this pass. This series of movies have the same disadvantage that Kara no Kyoukai had, good story yet released in parts, making the audience either forget about what happened previously or too annoyed with the slow theater release, making them marathon it in the end rather than following part after part. Of course, not every book is Harry Potter but hey, even look at those movies, which still couldn’t portray the essence of books. Though, characters are not bad and I hope when they will flesh out as the movies get released, we’ll be able to connect with them. At least, from the trailer it’s evident that more characters will be joining the fray; I sure want to know more about Tweedledum and Tweedledee. So, yeah, definitely watching.

OH GOD FINALLY I NEED TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED AFTER THE FIRST MOVIE, DAMN CLIFFHANGER. AND NAKAI KAZUYA FANGASM HNNGGGHHHH!

You might not be surprised to find out that this sports anime is filled with bishies but you might be surprised when you find out that these tennis playing boys are actually in middle school. I believe this is the only downfall when you think about the mass amount of hard working, sweaty tennis players who has physic defying moves that makes you think of Dragon Ball Z. But when you push that all aside, you will see how cool Echizen Ryouma is with his tsundere attitude and even though Ryouma acts full of himself, he can back it all up when he kicks some butt in tennis. This is probably the third movie and as the whole Prince of Tennis series advances, it gets even better. This time around, the Seigaku boys tennis team go to England. They meet up with familiar people and of course, end up having to go up against a group England tennis players who’s values on tennis goes against sportsmanship and it’s up the Ryouma to teach these English players a lesson.
|
*sighs* Yes, I love tenipuri. Gotta love shounen sports shows filled to the brim with bishies that have one quirk that defines their entire personality. I read the manga as opposed to watching the anime, but now I can see what I’ve been missing on the animation front. This series has been going on for quite a while, with the original manga being 380 chapters and “The New Prince of Tennis” still ongoing. At the core, it’s an anime about guys playing tennis. In reality, it’s about a snotty brat, know-it-all main character and all the bishounen that the fangirls write doujinshi of. The cast of characters in sports anime never ceases to amaze me. I never liked tennis, but of course, leave it to anime to make sports interesting. All of the players have special moves or abilities that makes the matches nail-biting inducing. I can’t wait to see the all-stars strut their stuff in this movie, ahh~ Man, this is unhealthily addictive.

I will admit I jumped at the Toaru in this movie title but quickly learned this was something completely different. So, our main character Charles has to travel 12,000 Kilometers in enemy waters?! Does not sound like a bright idea, but then again it’s a given assignment after all. So what if he has to travel with a random girl that happens to be next in line to rule the country? And she’s more beautiful than 5,000 beams of light? Lol. Now that’s a pick up line right there! Not sure it would actually work but hey whatever works for you. Maybe Charles is just crazy and that will motivate him to save the day? Sadly I have a feeling this will probably have a very sad ending with Charles or Fana dying in a horrible crash or them dying together? Well, who knows as I might be totally wrong and we will get the best ending ever filled with love and rainbows and other good stuff. Now I am not familiar with the director Jun Shishido, the only thing I saw of his was a few random episodes of Needless and that was just horrible! I mean funny too but what was that?! However I will give him a shot with this movie as he’s directing for Madhouse.
|
There are times that I want to beat the crap out of people who write summaries for new anime. I mean, yes you gotta translate but at least make it sound interesting rather than lines like beautiful than 5,000 beams of light… LOL! I just picture the deathly beams of censors found in different anime with otaku goggles on. Hmph! Anyways, coming to the plot line, there seems to be a past connection as well because there are some flashback memories in the trailer. The animation looks beautiful (Madhouse <3) and the chemistry between the main characters just makes my heart melt. I instantly recognized Charles’ seiyuu Ryunosuke Kamiki’s sweet voice; it helps being a Ghibli boy most of the times with roles in Arrietty, Spirited Away, Howl’s Moving Castle and Hoshi o Katta Hi but he has done other studio roles as well as in Summer Wars and Piano Forest, etc. Seika Taketomi is quite new compared to her counterpart, at least we have OD and Namikawa Daisuke as seasoned professionals backing up the supporting roles. Of course, I might get to see this next year but I’ll look forward to it!

Ah, the 90s, a time of grudge, extremism and… child detectives, apparently. Detective Conan has been on the air for 15 years now. Holy bajeezus. That is certainly an impressive milestone for a series, it’s hard to have have heard of it, but for those who don’t know (or scarily weren’t even born when this franchise started) DC is basically about Kudo Shinichi, a highschool detective who is shrunk down one night into the body of a grade schooler by the agents of some mysterious organization. He takes on the alias Edogawa Conan (named after Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, author of Sherlock Holmes) to track down the people who poisoned him and reverse the effects. Shota bait aside, once you get past this admittedly silly premise the show becomes all kinds of EPIC. You wouldn’t believe the ways some people commit murders in this show, it’s both hilarious, interesting and very fun to watch. You’re also surrounded by strong characters where-ever you go, so stories and scenarios play out very naturally. I hear what some of you are saying though, with over 600 episodes under it’s belt picking up Detective Conan now might seem like an impossible task. But a better way to get into this franchise is to just watch the movies as they give a brief summary of the story at the start, and any tie ins to the series are obvious and not hard to figure out. The movies are also ALL great stand alones, and I’m betting this one will be too. I’m actually surprised they haven’t blown up a dam before…they’ve blown up pretty much everything else. Buildings, helicopters, theme parks, blimps, you name it. Oh, Conan! Where-ever you go the body count rises and there’s massive collateral damage! I’d like to say MY BODY IS READY, but it never is, not for the sheer epicness of these movies. The story sounds so Bond-esque as well, it’s going be to be so much fun. The movies got progressively more epic and outlandish as the years went on, so after 13 and 14 I don’t know how they are going to top themselves but from the looks of the trailer they sure are gonna try. It opened at #1 on it’s release date back in April and made well over $6 million at the box office. It’s chief Director, Yasuichiro Yamamoto, has been involved in the key animation, storyboards and directing for most of the Conan movies and also some of the OVAs (which are all gorgeous, btw). And big surprise, he’s also had a hand in the Lupin franchise. They are also bringing back Katsuo Ono to do the music. So pretty much the whole “Conan Team” are being re-recruited as per year to work on this 15th installment in the global DC phenomenon. I just can’t wait! |

POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Hell ya to Mirai Nikki! I can’t wait to see that, but I have a feeling it will be soooo censored like BloodC And Deadman wonderland with so many shadows and great big beams of light….
IKA MUSUME 2! CANT WAIT AHHH!! xDD
Guilty Crown! Yes please! That looks so good, I will bet money it probably will be the hit of the fall season with all those great designs and music.
Why thank you! We put a lot of time into this 😀
POWUH: Occasional (51-75) with 67 comments

Good list and LOL! You should match up with some old shows to balance out your current watch list. ^^
POWUH: Lovely-pyon~ with 339 comments
Funnily enough I’m actually going to be watching the original Macross series along with this season. I think they might just be old enough XD
POWUH: 1000-1099 and Pirate King with 1048 comments
We can expect better from DEEN on Hatsukoi, but I’m keeping my expectations slightly above minimum.
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Hells ya Junko! Guilty Crown for the winnnnnnnn and Fate/Zero,Working!! and Shana three! xD
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 107 comments
*take a deep breath after reading the suuuuuuuper long review* lol
Just reading it takes almost one hour, can’t imagine how long the team has been working on this. Thank you so much for the hard work! <3
Aww, I'm so happy that there's lots of promising show this season. Currently interested in Guilty Crown, Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon, Gundam AGE, Phi Brain, Un-Go, Persona 4, Mirai Nikki, Fate/Zero, Shakugan no Shana III, Sekaiichi Hatsukoi 2 and Hotarubi no Morie. That's quite a lot coming from me :))
Might cut down this list after watching first episode though :p
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Thank you for the kind words! Everyone really worked hard in making this a reality. We have been preparing since last month. xD
Hahaa, we’ll see how much you end up seeing but definitely, there’s no shortage of good shows this season. ^^
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
-hands you a paper bag- ;D
Thanks! Indeed it was a long process but worth the wait! Good work everyone course we always do our best for the readers.
Yep I am looking forward to Guilty Crown,Gundam Age,Horizon,Mirai Nikki, Fate/Zero and Shana three too! Lots of great anime soon! Fall is going to be a great one.
POWUH: 800-899 and Flying Sage with 856 comments
Hourou Mousuko (special): I finally got around to watching the series last week. I had to wait because my old computer had serious problems with video, and the very pale colors of the art style meant I could barely tell what was going on. The pale watercolor style looks great (now that I have a new computer), and is very appropriate. For a show that seems like it would be intense and angst, it actually isn’t. I mean, yeah the kid gets bullied and stuff, but actually it is much more subdued than one would expect. I think this gave it a sense of realism that I wasn’t expecting. I’ll check out the special, since I’m caught up.
Chihayafuru: Yeah! This is my prediction for best show of the season.
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
I agree on the intensity. They talk about some serious stuff quite mildly. No violence except for some bullying and bitching. Seen in a marathon, Hourou Musuko is much better than waiting for it every week.
And three cheers for Chihayafuru. This should be a total win!
POWUH: Lovely-pyon~ with 338 comments
AWESOME SAUCE!!! I’ve been waiting soooo long for this!!! Picking next season’s watches is always a process. But I love all your reviews and the trailers really help. No one does it like Metanron. Here is too another rocking anime season.
CHEERS!
Most looking forward too:
Fate/Zero, Gundam Age, Bakuman S2 and Sekai-Ichi Hatsukoi 2. Watching a few others but those are the big kickers.
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Thank you, Kitty-chan! We love doing it for our readers. ^^
Also, a mecha fan? Say HI to Fosh and Jrow as these two fanboy it to the limit. xD
POWUH: 1000-1099 and Pirate King with 1048 comments
Thanks so much! It’s like how Carly Simon sings it.
I have faith in F/Z being great and Hatsukoi should be more of season 1 goodness, and I’m interested to see what Age brings to the table.
POWUH: Lovely-pyon~ with 338 comments
I really just can’t wait to hear Takano go Huh?! again.
I think I might add Last Exile to the list, thou I haven’t see the first one.
Also Hi Fosh and Jrow =^_^= yay for mecha backed fun!
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Oh yes you should try to watch some Last Exile! Really good stuff xD and -wave- YES! Finally a season of mecha! Wooooooooooo hooooooo!
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Ahahah thanks! 😀
Fate/Zero looks great! Can’t wait to see some more of Saber and Rin <3 Gundam Age might take a while to actually get into with those character designs, but I love gundam so I can look past that for now.
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 88 comments
Soooo much info, amazing!! I think I might actually start recognizing VAs with your format XD
And OMG Sayanoara Zetsu Sensei, Hourou Mousuko, Usagi Drop, & Kimi ni Todoke specials! *_*
Anaaga’s reaction to Sekai-something something was cute haha
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
I’m a VA fangirl through and through so it’ll be all my pleasure if you start recognizing them due to my reviews. XD
Too many titles to check out, yeah!
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
hahah yep I am with you to Vivi one day I will have the names of all the actors memorized! Somehow….
POWUH: and Vampire Lover with 11746 comments
Whoa, this season is packed. It’s almost like summer again.
I saw the Guilty Crown trailer and even though I haven’t seen much of Code Geass, it reminds me of that with Index/Railgun parts.
I’m also in to check out Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon, Phi Brain: Kami no Puzzle, Fate/Zero, Persona 4: The Animation, Maji de Watashi ni Shinasai, C3: Cube X.
As for Hunter x Hunter, I never saw the original version but it still looks interesting.
A third Shakugan no Shana? Damn!!! I haven’t even seen the first two. Time to catch up.
A Deadman Wonderland OVA. I might give this series a second opinion depending on how it plays out. The madness, blood and gore were on the mark but the main character has yet to prove himself. I mean, Ganta actually looks tougher in this picture and I’m itching to see Shiro and Minatsuki go wild again.
That Infinite Stratos OVA is next on the list along with that Ao no Exorcist special.
This season’s gonna be busy but gonna help us burn a the the way to winter season.
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Oh hell yeah! I want to see everything! Well, almost~
Guilty Crown seems to be the top pick because of the star-studded staff. I mean, would you look at those names. Same goes for Fate/Zero, Un-Go, Persona, Phi Brain and Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon. I say something for everyone but yeah, a warning for Shana, it’s a typical tsundere girl going shut up all the time. Not sure if it has enough ‘plot’.
POWUH: 1000-1099 and Pirate King with 1048 comments
In regards to Shana, I’ve never seen it, but from what I’ve read from steev and also other places is that Shana is kind of the basis for which most of today’s tsunderes are based off of. He’s actually excited about the series which surprised me a good bit.
POWUH: and Vampire Lover with 11746 comments
I don’t really mind tsunderes. I survived Bakemonogatari’s Hitagi and Kore Wa Zombie’s Sera and Haruna. And they are as tsun as they come.
What I really want to see first is Guilty Crown but we gotta wait untill October. I should have known. The Hanazawa virus has even gotten this upcoming series. She’s really branching out. Then there’s Persona 4 and Fate/Zero. They look really wild.
And not to forget Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon with Jun Fukuyama in the cast. Hime and other Fukuyama fangirls are gonna be all over that. They should have another anime with big time VA. Ao no Exorcist was a breeding ground for three kinds of viruses: Jun Fukuyama, Nobuhiko Okamoto and the infectious Hanazawa virus.
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Yeah lots of great looking shows! So amazing to the line up with mecha for once.
True about guilty crown it does look a bit like a “Railgun/index” type of series which sounds great to me xD
POWUH: iLurker with 8 comments
First off, girls and guys of Metanorn you deserve a standing ovation for this season preview, every other blog should not bother to write one and just provide a link back to this. Seriously outstanding job. I am however worried about Kyokai, with all she’s got on her plate, one of these days her head is going to straight up explode! Of course that won’t stop her and we’re all going to have to chip in and buy her a yellow motorcycle helmet with built in nekomimi and those aren’t cheap you know!
I do have a bone to pick with you all though, before reading this I was fretting over having 12 shows in my want to watch list, now I have 22. And 8 OVA’s. On top of Fringe, Supernatural and Terra Nova in USA tvland! orz >.<
Again thank you for the fantastic work though, I'm so hyped to enjoy this amazing season with all of you!
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Where should I even begin? I laughed like mad after reading this comment and thank you SO MUCH for your kind words and worrying about my head. LOL, Celty fits so well here. xD
Also, rest assured, I’ll be watching Fringe and Supernatural too along with all the above anime. It’s gonna be tough but reviews are there to check out and then sift the crop for better ones.
Let’s have an awesome season, YEAHHHH! xD
POWUH: 1000-1099 and Pirate King with 1048 comments
I know what ya mean with having so many shiny new shows to watch. I don’t have the US tv shows, but as a sports fan I have to find extra time to wiggle these shows around football games and whatnot.
Thanks so much! The first half of October will be crazy busy for us getting out first impressions and such.
POWUH: iLurker with 8 comments
Just to echo the comments above, thank you for such a complete season preview that’s beautiful-looking to boot! The amount of information here is extraordinary and the links to websites, information about people involved, etc. are extremely useful too. Awesome job!
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Thank you, Raph! Much appreciate it.
Also, I see you share the Yamada love, nyaa~ xD
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Thanks Raph! It was a lot of work and fun to finally get this done and out to everyone to read! Yeah thanks to Ness and Kyokai for working on the shiney graphics.
POWUH: Beginner (20-35) with 24 comments
Just real quick.
@Kyokai
You did a little mistake on page 9:
Sunrise and Production I.G. are not both doing Guilty Crown. Only I.G. and the one missing for Sunrise is Gundam AGE. You though nobody would notice eh?? XDD
You can count on this redly-suspiciously Gundam fanboy to correct you XDDD
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Why would I purposefully misquote. >>
Though good on ya, gundam fanboy.
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Thanks TSRL! Are you excited for more Gundam!? I know I sure am muhahahah!
POWUH: 400-499 with 428 comments
All I have to say is wow, so many things to expect from the coming Fall, though I’m in agreement that Fate/Zero is at the top of the list. Returning cast as well as new members with the darker story in the background compared to the (relatively) lighthearted Fate/Stay-night. P4 though comes second but there are A LOT of new shows I have not heard of that I’m genuinely excited for…now I shall begin bouncing in my chair in glee…:)
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Fate/Zero, HELL YEAH! *Metafist* I have never been this excited about an anime before… Well, Nisemonogatari comes near enough but you catch my drift. xD
Persona 4 is making me crazy with their new PVs as the days go by. Not to mention so many shows to check out. It’s definitely going to be an eventful season, this one.
POWUH: Lovely-pyon~ and Vocaloid Fangirl with 363 comments
!!! Thank you so much for creating such a comprehensive (and pretty) season preview post 😀 I am in awe of (and eternally grateful to) the Metanorn Team (Y)
I am so excited for Fall with approximately 7 series I’m looking forward to catching 8D 8D
…The only thing is that I only can start watching after my End of Year Exams end on 10 October so I. HAVE. TO. RESIST. T T
POWUH: 1000-1099 and Pirate King with 1048 comments
That’s so awesome to see you write that! So glad you really enjoyed the preview.
Fall’s looking pretty good. I’m not sure what my personal count of shows is, but each season this year I’ve underestimated the number, so it might hover between 5-10.
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
You are welcome! This was really a lot of work but amazing job team xD
Nice!! I have lost count on the series I will end up watching….probably a little of everything for me 😀
POWUH: Occasional (51-75) with 58 comments
wooot new season! Looks pretty decent too =D
Looking forward to Phi Brain; Kami no Puzzle, HunterxHunter, and kimi to boku… Also going to continue on with bakuman, working, shinryaku ika mumsume and sekai-ichi hatsukoi =P
once again, very nice work on the review-ness =)
POWUH: 1000-1099 and Pirate King with 1048 comments
Very appropriate that you say review-“ness” since Ness did an amazing job with the design as is usually the case. 🙂
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Yes! Lots of exciting things to watch soon!
I am interested in HunterxHunter! And Ika Musume <3 <3 I missed that series I need my comedy fix.
LOL Yepp so much review-ness!
POWUH: 500-599 and The Trapolicious Treasurer with 599 comments
And every time a review comes out, I disappear right after it’s publish for a vacation xD
Thanks! (even though I’m unsure if that review-ness was even meant for me) :3

I went into this summary thinking the only shows worth my time were Working!!, Persona 4, Guilty Crown and Last Exile, yet now I’m more excited with Tamayura and Coppelion. I hope the later does actually air this season!).
Oh, and more Kimi ni Todoke means more Ayane = Win Win Win!!!

I’ve heard good things about Coppelion, from manga readers, but I’m not sure we’ll be seeing it this season.

Oh god Kyokai I love Tales of Symphonia how could you say that ;___; But it’s releasing in the winter anime season, so it’s good that you didn’t put it in the list.
By the way, I looooveeee Tales of Symphonia. You know what this means *hint hint*
And that Natsume twins thingy? I thought it would be about bunch of girls, but it’s actually about bunch of guys. Has lots of yaoi pairing potentials. Will watch for the gheyness

What did I say?! =P
Tales of Symphonia is getting so many OVAs like every season, we can’t cover it every time. =P but you are always welcome to cover it. 😉
And about Kimi to Boku., I always thought it would be awesome if someone made the guys’ version of K-On! and look at this, our time is made. xD

Definitely watching:

I love the layout too! Very cool xD
Trueeeeee some can watch anime all day!
Nice list I can’t wait for Guilty Crown, Working!!, and Mirai Nikki those seem like really fun shows to watch this season. Fingers crossed for Mirai Nikki not to be censored to much due to all the BLOOD…
POWUH: 400-499 with 406 comments
I know! I loved the all that blood in the manga. I really hope that it is present in the anime adaption.

OMG YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thank you so much. Fall is the season for awesome anime. There’s like 6 animes airing on my birthday. CRAZYNESS I TELL YOU CRAZYNESS!
Im so happy that Bakuman is getting a 2nd season. The manga is so interesting. As well as all the other animes getting another season.
Detective Conan i love that show. All I need to do to catch up is watch more then 500 episode before october. Maybe I should just start watching the movies.

Happy early birthday!
I want to get into Conan. I really do, but 600 episodes seems like a hell of a lot XD. Good luck with that!
POWUH: 400-499 with 489 comments
ahhh thank you
Conan is really difficult to. I’m also reading the manga which is more easier… i think

DROP DROP DROP CONAN
Not that I hate it, and I HAD the manga. But since it’s not even done until NOW, I decided to stop. It’s making me broke
POWUH: 400-499 with 489 comments
lmao I always wonder when it will end. it’s been on since around the time I was born. I haven’t hit 100 episodes and I’m on the 13th volume (and counting), but im not going to give up. i might just stick to the manga it’s faster.
