Review of Kaze No Stigma Episode 1

April 2, 2012 in Kaze no Stigma

I think this looks like an interesting anime, a guy from a family that practices fire magic instead practices wind magic which is a big disgrace to the family. I like anime with a lot of action and wile this had a lot of fighting scenes it just didn’t have that depth other anime have, kind of boring, but I’ll watch a few more episodes to see if that changes. In this episode the main character was also framed for several murders in the family by an unknown entity so his family now thinks he killed the members but he handled it very flatly or in other words he just kind of set back and said oh well, I would have liked to see more emotion involved and maybe some more action. A good rule of thumb is you can’t judge an anime by the first 3 episodes so I’ll watch further into the series but it didn’t seem that interesting.

On a different note, the graphics, drawings, and special effects were pretty good so this anime appears to have a good budget, I’ll see how it plays out.

Finished Hayate no Gotoku – Episode 3

September 24, 2011 in Hayate no Gotoku

Finished Episode 3 of this anime, things are looking slightly better and the storyline is finally revealing some of the arches coming up and explaining some events that didn’t make sense way back in episode 1.

I’m still not sure I’ll like it and am still not leaning in any one direction (against or towards it). It’s just the type of anime, your either a fan of it or not and I’m not much of one. I might change the anime I’m watching to Tokyo Mew Mew instead.

The first part is below (It’s fandubbed in English, couldn’t find 2nd part Englished subbed)

Finished Hayate no Gotoku – Episode 2

September 23, 2011 in Hayate no Gotoku

I finished episode 2 of Hayate no Gotoku, and I’m beginning to understand why parts of it don’t make much sense. The reason is it’s not suppose to make any sense, it’s simply the type of anime. This type often has random rules and events that don’t make any sense but despite the fact that they may be significant they’re meaningless. The only important part of the show is the core plot.

Or in other words, it’s just a very random anime about the complicated relation between the new butler and her, everything else is completely and totally random following no rules or storyline. I’ll watch the 3rd episode to see if it get’s a little better but the next anime on my list is “Tokyo Mew Mew” if this anime doesn’t work out.

Finished Hayate no Gotoku – Episode 1

September 22, 2011 in Hayate no Gotoku

I finished the first episode of Hayate no Gotoku based on a trial to see if I want to dedicate to the anime or not. I thought the anime was interesting, to say the least, so I’m not sure if I want to dedicate yet. Asatte no Houkou was also like that and I ended up really liking it so I’ll move on to episode 2.

I also expected, based on the description, a real kidnapping whom the kidnapped girl mistaked as an act of love (after the kidnapping) but the description is slightly inaccurate, the kidnapping never happens (it was a total failure from the beginning) and the girl (who’s very rich) hires him as a butler instead.

Also the beginning never made any sense to me (there was no explanation abut anything at the beginning and seemed very out of place with the rest of the episode) and several key events in the episode storyline seemed very random having no explanation as to how any why this happened yet they were critical events.

I’ll watch the second episode since, with anime, you can -never- judge the first episode but as of now it just seems largely random and unplanned. It got really good reviews and such so I’ll see.

The last part of the episode is below but some guy at youtube had this idea that it would be better if he uploaded it upside down, since it’s the only video I could find – it’s all I have to show as a reference video
