Summer Anime 2013 ~ Reviews ~ Part 1 [Watamote, Sunday Without God, Silver Spoon, Brothers Conflict, Free!]

Watamote [Watashi ga Motenai no wa Dou Kangaetemo Omaera ga Warui!]:

Social anxiety and awkwardness is something we can all pretty much relate to. Don't lie. You know you've had your fair share of embarrassing moments, but, here, Tomoko takes social awkwardness to a whole different level - forcing us to relive those tragic bleak moments of our lives, while allowing us to laugh at ourselves too.

Bleach Ch. 549 + 550: They Predict, I Predict, and I Was Right

The minor side battles continue. Ichigo is nowhere to be seen, and it looks like The Shinigami need the help.

Single of the Week: "Complication" by ROOKiEZ is PUNK'D (Durarara!! OP2)

ROOKiEZ is PUNK'D is a Japanese band I am more familiar with, due to their collaborations in Ao no Exorcist and Bleach. Their music is the kind of music you would generally find in my ipod. Out of the two openings of Drrr!!, "Complication" is my favorite. After all, the anime can be quite complicated. Starting with the name. It is quite a mouthful, but fun to say.

Single of the Week: "V.I.P" by SID (Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic OP)

I thought "V.I.P" by SID, was a really good song choice for Magi - an adventure series about a young magician named, Aladdin. Yes, we've all heard that story before. But I doubt we've ever heard of an anime adaptation before. Anyway, the first season premiered around the same time last year. I was never particularly fond of the anime, but for some reason, I am oddly excited for its second season, which is due to air this coming October.

Blood Lad Review

"I love stuff made by humans.

Especially the ones from Japan.
They have my total respect."

If you feel the same way about Japan, then you might just like Blood Lad.
