Winter 2020 Anime I’m Interested in

Before we end 2019, let me just add to my pathetic post count. Below are the titles I’ll be checking out from the next anime season:

• Magia Record: Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica Gaiden – I’m not yet 100% sure about this, but we’ll see. Haven’t seen the 3rd movie though…
• Majutsushi Orphen Hagure Tabi (Sorcerous Stabber Orphen) – I’ve heard Sorcerous Stabber Orphen mentioned many times, but haven’t been interested enough to actually check out the original source material. But interesting enough.
• Kuutei Dragons – Dragons?! Count me in!
• Infinite Dendrogram – Isekai? I don’t jump at anything isekai immediately, but description looks good.
• Housekishou Richard-shi no Nazo Kantei – I’m curious.
• Somali to Mori no Kamisama – Also curious…
• Oshi ga Budoukan Itte Kuretara Shinu – Most interesting from this bunch so far.
• Rikei ga Koi ni Ochita no de Shoumei Shite Mita – I haven’t seen any anime about post graduates so this could be interesting. It’s also supposed to be comedy too.
• Toaru Kagaku no Railgun T – Can we just banish Index and Touma and just make Railgun standalone with Misaka and company? Please? 😛
• Haikyuu!! To the Top – Haven’t seen the 3rd anime yet, so this is just a marker.
• Kyokou Suiri – Mystery + Romance + Supernatural . OK, I’m in.

Previews I based on are here:

Winter 2020 Preview!

Happy New Year everyone!   😀

It was a good thing I prepared the list in advance months ago.  At least I won’t be late with this post.

My Top Anime for 2011

Happy New Year everyone!

This post is very late because, well, I had a awful start to my Christmas vacation–caught a fever and have been feeling sluggish ever since.  Haven’t done much and the result is delay in the things I wanted to do.  Adding to the delay was my purchase of a new monitor that led to rewatches and viewings galore…

Anyway, I have got to say that 2011’s crop was better as a whole than 2010’s.  The top 5 contenders each have the quality to be considered the best show of the year 2011 for me.  To illustrate the close fight, the five categories that I used to compare the shows (namely Characters/Entertainment Value/Story-Plot-Ending/Music/Animation) were divided among 4 of the top 6 shows.  The 2 shows that didn’t get a first place ranking had 2 second-place rankings each.

My viewing has picked up a bit over 2010’s 14 shows.  Maybe because as I said earlier, the quality of the shows for 2011 was actually better than 2010’s.  Am I watching more because of this?  Hehehe.  For 2011 I’m supposed to be ranking 19 shows, but Fate/Zero, Last Exile – Ginyoku no Fam, and Chihayafuru are still far from finished.  So I have decided to bump these 3 to 2012, saving me a few moments of deliberation with the 2011 ranking.  Hunter x Hunter is also unfinished, and I doubt if I really can complete it.  With these unfinished shows the ranking process would’ve been tougher.  🙂

I have also decided to exclude movies except for Break Blade.  If I did not, well, Sayonara no Tsubasa would have been this list’s best anime–blowing away the competition hahaha…

If last year was lackluster for individual character likes, this year is a drought.  (Though that doesn’t mean the shows this year are lackluster.)

Winter 2011: Finally there’s something good to watch

Even though I should be looking for a job, here I am posting this.  Why?  Because it’s the first time since I started this blog (in 2006) that I became this excited about the winter anime season.  So what will I watch, what will I drop?  Read on.

Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica 01

Very brief impressions on this magical girl show.
