I tend to watch underrated Anime once in a while. There's always a hit and miss in doing so. Some turn out good, some turn out trash and some are like Saekano. Also, known as 'How to raise a boring girlfriend' , this show completely polarized my opinion of it till the end. For starters, there was forced ecchi fanservice was clearly unneeded for a show which was clearly trying to be a serious slice of life anime, but clearly what troubled me the most on the direction the show was heading. The first season for the most was mediocre, but not bad. The problem was in the second season where the show turned itself upside down, to the point I felt it lost its flavor and made me rage a bit about certain developments in the plot towards the end. One thing going good for it though was it's character development, which was really good. The show even though ended well, was pretty much really saved by the best girl of the show, who was there for MC at the end. The character developm...

Sometimes, the best stories are those simple subtle stories that touch your heart. Tsuki ga Kirie is exactly that, a story about pure, innocent love. Reminiscent of I"s, the Anime did a great job of wrapping up everything beautifully within the 12 episodes. Accompanied by  a pleasing art style, and a wonderful soundtrack, the end result was a heartwarming , sugar coated experience. Truly a wonderful watch.

1 month ,5 volumes and 1250 pages later I have caught up with whatever material the anime was adapted from. That said, it's been fun to read this series all this time , and while the anime does adapt a lot of the content from the novels, it hasn't shyed away from changing or removing some parts of the story together. The 5 volumes have been a fun read, but it's worthwhile to say the least, that not all volumes are specifically trying to centre itself on some major plot point, but rather it's varied in each volume. While the first couple of volumes were very fast paced, volume 5 in particular broke that and felt like there was greater emphasis between the dialogues between Lawrence and Holo, and everything else didn't feel quite as much important. That of course, gave a much more personal touch to the overall tone of the series , but it also gave an idea of what the story is truly about....... Perhaps it's not the destination that we have to look forward to, it ...

Steins; Gate 0- A Dark Tale of Okabe Rinatarou That Time Forgot . ( REVIEW IS TO BE READ ONLY BY STEINS; GATE FANS, AS THE POST MAY CONTAIN MILD SPOILERS FROM THE ORGINAL ANIME/VN. IF YOU HAVEN’T SEEN STEINS; GATE ,BUT YOU HAVE SEEN TOKYO GHOUL, YOU REALLY...REALLY... NEED TO IMPROVE YOUR SHIT TASTE IN ANIME) Ok, firstly it’s been a long time since I posted any sort of reviews as I consider myself nothing less of lazy. But, someone who’s an avid fan of the series I could not resist to post a review of this. Steins; Gate 0 isn’t actually a sequel to Steins; Gate. It actually serves as a midquel to the original show/VN and fills in a lot of details that probably did not cross our mind. In terms of where the events of Steins; Gate 0 fits in the timeline, you all will need to jog your memory right towards where Okabe fails in his first attempt to open a path to Steins; Gate and is completely distraught. At that moment Okabe receives a video message from himself f...

The Monogatari series is unique in the world of Anime. The art style, and the complete dependency on character interaction would probably make one think if this was a play. Over the course of many years, starting with Bakemonogatri in 2009 , I have watched the series on and off with its highs and lows, but now I finally caught up with the series and finished off with Owarimonogatari Second Season, and I can say the series really was the epitome of story telling. An amazing, plot with an amazing set of characters, I probably never realised when I was in love with the show . Seeing it end felt like the end of a long journey. A journey that was every bit as memorable. I hope that there are more Anime that are truly as good as this, but for me the Monogatari series will be without doubt one of the best Anime I have seen till date. *A post from my blog , from way back in 2009 when Bakemonogatri first aired. http://stupidsamasblog.blogspot.in/2009/07/bakemonogatari.html?m=1 * Pic of Sen...
