Innocent Venus is an anime that falls into an ill-fated genre: Mecha. I’m not too big of a fan of mecha anime and the crappy cg that usually follows it. So is Innocent Venus guilty of such crimes, or does it successfully defend itself in the court of anime law?
So unofficially, I thought of Le Chevalier D`Eon as “that anime about the French crossdressing guy.” After actually watching the anime, it turned out to be more interesting than I had expected; in a good way!
Bokura ga Ita is an anime that’s been compared to Honey & Clover in style. With this information, I had deemed it a must watch! But can any anime really stand up to the awesomeness that is Hachikuro?
Naikaku Kenryoku Hanzai Kyosei Torishimarikan Zaizen Jotaro’s claim to fame is that it’s “that one anime with the freakin’ long name!” I haven’t seen anyone write about this anime, and I wondered why. It became pretty apparent after watching about 1 minute of the anime…
Chokotto Sister is the siscon anime of the year! Actually, it might be the only siscon anime of the year. So make sure your imouto isn’t in the room (otherwise she’ll say something like “onii-chan no ecchi!), and check out my first impressions!
NHK ni Youkoso, or Welcome to the NHK!, follows the tradition of Genshiken by having an otaku in the starring role! Everyone seems to love the manga, so the anime should be good as well. Plus the OP is done by Round Table (feat. NINO) so I’m pretty much contractually obligated to watch this.
In my Summer 2006 anime preview, I predicted that Tonagura! would consist of pure win. The character designs looked good, and I decided it would be ecchi fun for the whole family! Well, maybe not the whole family…
Otogi-Jushi Akazukin, or Fairy Musketeers Akazukin, is one of the super cute anime of the season. I had already seen the OVA, and I thought it was good. So how does the TV version of the anime stack up?
Coyote Ragtime Show is probably the highest budget anime of the season. The trailer promised us lots of action and high quality animation. So does Coyote Ragtime Show actually deliver?
Whether you like tsunderes or not, Tsuyokiss is upon us! This is the anime that was billed as “A ‘Tsundere’ TV Animation.�? Can Tsuyokiss live up to hype? Or does it fall like a house of tsunderes?
