Spring 2010

I’m going to try doing this again for the new season.

Recommended

  • Durarara!! – Makes me think of Eden of the East with headless horsemen on motorcycles. A calculated mix of banality and shocking violence. Not sure where this is going, but I’m interested.
  • Nodame Cantabile Finale – I haven’t even seen the first Ep of this, but Nodame Cantabile is all I need to know.

Maybe

  • Kaitou Reinya – Short little 3-minute webcasts about a great thief girl, but the real star is the mouse.
  • Ookami Kakushi – Seems to be Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni with some Rozen Maiden/Touhou feel. Hard to say based on just the first ep, but I’ll watch another.
  • Sora no Woto – High production values, great music, could be a good setup. Character designs are blatantly K-On ripoffs and the setup is more than a little Strike Witches (but without the fanservice) – I’m trying not to hold that against it. I fear for the worst, but am still watching.

Crap

  • Baka to Test to Shokanju – High production values, but every school cliche in the world combined with every Pokemon cliche in the world.  Somehow the lead girl is Utena but with everything that would make her threatening to teenage males removed.
  • Chu-Bra – Girl starts a lingere club at school after her racy black panties are exposed before the whole school. Yeah.
  • Dance in the Vampire Bund – Loli vampire molestation and banal to boot. You might like this if you liked that other loli vampire anime I can’t even bother to remember the name of (not Karin, the other one).
  • Ladies vs. Butlers – Immediately apparent this is made by the Kanokon people. All T&A, school cliche, loli molestation and soft ‘fuzzy’ faces. And boring.
  • Omamori Himari – School cliche overload. A dangerous female bodyguard transfer student and an ancient threat. Oh yeah and everyone has huge tits. You’ve seen this a million times.
  • Seikon no Qwaser – This season’s Queen’s Blade fetish slot, apparently.
