Guilty Crown Impressions

The first 4 mins of the first episode were beautiful to listen to, with Euterpe on the background. OP, ED and insert songs were composed by ryo and his supercell team. Simply put, a virus gets out of comtrol, an organisation steps in to handle it and takes over Japan, our hero boy Ouma Shu somehow inherit the Void Genome who allows him to draw out voids (think of voids as unique weapons that Shu can use) from people as he works alongside the Funeral Parlor resistance group. Interesting until I watched Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon

Took me awhile to get to watching it but the current few episodes were pretty awesome. Based on the light novel (which was ridiculously thick, see below) by Kawakami Minori and drawn by Satoyasu
The major problem with the series is probably the pacing and development for the first few episodes. You're introduced to the whole Class 3-Plum students (more than 10 at once) whose names you won't remember for 1/2 the show, a history that isn't exactly easy to absorb, with a Sengoku period setting and a plot that doesn't move until the 1/2 of the show. The characters are all drawn rather uniquely, especially the girls with the tight fitting body suits as their uniforms as the main form of fanservice. Designs-wise, the few guys pale in comparison to the girls, who looks and personality will fit most of typical anime stereotypes. I'm really liking Honda Futayo, Neito Mitotsudaira and Honda Masazumi. Definately ranks among my top for the current season. Needs a 2nd season too

I question whether you can call them "light" novels. The latest 5 seem pretty fat

Cospa goods up for pre-orders. First up the half human half wolf knight, Neito Mitotsudaira. Yes, first impression would most likely be the insane drill hair she sports. I'm really tempted to get it. I might get one to keep and one to use my my daki cover

Next is P-01s or Horizon Ariadust. One of the big boobs girl in the series and has a rather fine ass. Slight urge to get but probably will skip. If Cospa is released the dual yuri witches, Malgot and Malga or Honda Futayo I'll get it

Blogger, I have returned!

To quote Anavel Gato...
Been away for along while without updating, Mostly on the PS3 and PC gaming away. Super Robot Wars Z2, Queen's Gate, Tales of Xillia, Hyper Dimension Neptune Mk2, Sengoku Basara 3 Utage. Barely even watched anime for the past few months, except probably some episodes of the loli-licious Ro-kyu-bu. Hinata and Ogura Yui are a deadly combination, moe overload
So until mid November I was really busy playing Dragon Nest SEA. But lately my friends haven't really come online so I'm getting a little bit of free time to do other things. Time to catch up on watching Steins Gate, Guilty Crown, and getting to finishing my Sasara route for the PS3 To Heart 2 DX Plus

 Omake

Tales of Xillia got a new company to do the animations, ufotable who were responsible for Kara no Kyokai, Black Rock Shooter the Game OP. Progress is sung by Hamasaki Ayumi. Awesome to watch, and I prefer Mira's version instead of Jude

The level of eroges are really increasing over the years, the company Eternal 
http://www.eternal-will.jp/top.html has caught my atention with their previous game Tenkuu no Yumina and the Yumina FD. People who have played the SPirit of Eternity Sword series (Eien no Aselia and Seinakurana) should feel right at home playing it. The battle scenes may lok cute but the effects can be on par with Super Robot Wars and Disgaea
