Anime i’ve Watched

That begin with a O (Part 2)!

Yep this is how i’m going to bring over all the anime and manga i’ve watched and posted about on the old blog. It’s not so detailed but it will have to do. Anything new I watch or read from this point on will have their own posts.

Orenchi no Furo Jijou:

Genres: Comedy, Fantasy, Josei, TV short

Synopsis:  On his way home from school, Tatsumi sees a man collapsed near a lake. When he approaches him, Tatsumi notices something strange: the person in need of help is actually a beautiful merman named Wakasa! Because Wakasa’s home has become too polluted to live in, Tatsumi graciously offers his bathtub as a refuge. With a boisterous merman as his new roommate, Tatsumi’s normal life won’t be returning anytime soon, not to mention Wakasa’s aquatic friends—Takasu, Mikuni, and Maki—often show up uninvited, making them all quite a handful for the high school student. As he humors their curiosity for human life, Tatsumi sometimes finds himself enjoying their childish antics, but he will have to keep his cool if he intends to keep up with his daily life and newfound friendship.

My Rating: 8.5/10

Finished airing in 2014 with a total of 13, 4 minute long episodes. 

My Thoughts: A soothing tv short with a fantasy twist and cute guys as far as the eye can see! 

Oshiete! Galko-chan:

Genres: Slice of Life, Comedy, School, TV Short

Synopsis:  At first glance, Galko, Otako, and Ojou are three high school girls who seem like they wouldn’t have anything to do with each other. Galko is a social butterfly with a reputation for being a party animal, even though she is actually innocent and good-hearted despite her appearance. Otako is a plain-looking girl with a sarcastic personality and a rabid love of manga. And Ojou is a wealthy young lady with excellent social graces, though she can be a bit absent-minded at times. Despite their differences, the three are best friends, and together they love to talk about various myths and ask candid questions about the female body. Oshiete! Galko-chan is a lighthearted and humorous look at three very different girls and their frank conversations about themselves and everyday life. No topic is too safe or too sensitive for them to joke about—even though every so often, Galko seems to get a bit embarrassed by their discussions! [Written by MAL Rewrite]

My Rating: 7/10

Finished airing in 2016 with a total of 12, 7 minute long episodes.

Now with the help of the fox spirit Kushimatsu, he and his fellow officers must learn to work alongside youkai maidens—Zakuro, Susukihotaru, Hoozuki, and Bonbori—to solve paranormal cases. Set in the midst of an alternate version of Japanese Westernization, Otome Youkai Zakuro explores the clashes and unions that can occur when east meets west, local meets foreign, and women meet men.

My Rating: 8/10

Finished airing in 2010 with a total of 13 episodes. 

My Thoughts: An interesting (if not a bit cliche) but incomplete anime. Has a manga…. which is also incomplete and updated very, very slowly. 

Ouran Koukou Host Club (Ouran High School Host Club):

Genres: Comedy, Reverse Harem, Romance, School, Shoujo

Synopsis:  Haruhi Fujioka is a bright scholarship candidate with no rank or title to speak of—a rare species at Ouran Academy, an elite school for students of high pedigree. When she opens the door to Music Room #3 hoping to find a quiet place to study, Haruhi unexpectedly stumbles upon the Host Club. Led by the princely Tamaki Suou, the club—whose other members include the “Shadow King” Kyouya Ootori; the mischievous Hitachiin twins, Kaoru and Hikaru; the childlike Mitsukuni Haninozuka, also known as “Honey”; and his strong protector Takashi “Mori” Morinozuka—is where handsome boys with too much time on their hands entertain the girls in the academy. In a frantic attempt to remove herself from the hosts, Haruhi ends up breaking a vase worth eight million yen and is forced into becoming the eccentric group’s general errand boy to repay her enormous debt. However, thanks to her convincingly masculine appearance, her naturally genial disposition toward girls, and fascinating commoner status, she is soon promoted to full-time male host. And before long, Haruhi is plunged into a glitzy whirlwind of elaborate cosplays, rich food, and exciting shenanigans that only the immensely wealthy Host Club can pull off. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

My Rating: 9/10

Finished airing in 2006 with a total of 26 episodes. 

My Thoughts: Raise your hand if you believe this series deserves a remake!? I would lose it if they remade this series but the original isn’t all that bad either! Worth a watch if you’re a shoujo lover! 

Outbreak Company:

Genres: Harem, Comedy, Parody, Fantasy

Synopsis: Shinichi Kanou is a shut-in otaku with a vast knowledge of anime, manga, and video games. One day, after applying for a job in hopes of escaping his secluded lifestyle, he is kidnapped and transported to the Eldant Empire—a fantasy world filled with elves, dragons, and dwarves. Trapped in this strange land, Shinichi is given an unlikely task by the Japanese government: to spread otaku culture across the realm by becoming an “Otaku Missionary.” To accomplish his mission, Shinichi has the full support of the Japanese government, as well as the half-elf maid Myucel and Princess Petralka of the Eldant Empire. Together with this ragtag bunch, he will overcome the obstacles of politics, social classes, and ethnic discrimination to promote the ways of the otaku in this holy land. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

Discontent with being treated like livestock under the vampires’ cruel reign, Mikaela hatches a rebellious escape plan that is ultimately doomed to fail. The only survivor to come out on the other side is Yuuichirou, who is found by the Moon Demon Company, a military unit dedicated to exterminating the vampires in Japan. Many years later, now a member of the Japanese Imperial Demon Army, Yuuichirou is determined to take revenge on the creatures that slaughtered his family, but at what cost? Owari no Seraph is a post-apocalyptic supernatural shounen anime that follows a young man’s search for retribution, all the while battling for friendship and loyalty against seemingly impossible odds.

My Rating: 3/10

Finished airing in 2015 with a total of 12 episodes. 

My Thoughts: It somehow got a sequel… still lacking. Plenty of pretty people though with little substance…

.・゜-: ✧:-🐤zenitsu 🐇tanjiro 🐗inosuke-:✧ :-゜・．

I sometimes don't know what's wrong with me like

I'm mad that I'm the second wife (fake married) but, I want to be Uzui's fourth wife.

So my brother’s eyes are red because when he was inside your tummy, you ate red berries?

So I’ve gotten into webtoons over the past few months and I just wanted to share some of the really great ones I’ve finished and am still reading (because they’re still ongoing ;-;)

If you love historical, fantasy and romance like me, try these!

COMPLETE:

My Dear Cold-Blooded King

My first webtoon and what a gateway it was! STUNNING ART, captivating story line and a good ole love triangle to make my heart tingle.

The Reason Why Raelina Ended Up At The Duke’s Mansion

Another winner! I read this over the course of a day. That’s how good it was. This also was my gateway into the “oh no I’ve transversed space and time somehow and ended up in this new life and well, I guess now I’ll make the best of it” and boy, was I into it.

A Beauty, A Fatal Concubine

This one recently ended and took my heart with it! What a drama this would make honestly. A hardworking and clever protagonist who outsmarts everyone - we love to see it.

Ellin’s Solhwa

I’ve only finished this one in the past hour and did I love it so much! Another one of those “oops I got sent back in time into someone else’s body” but such a good story.

Ginger and the Cursed Prince

Recently completed and what a lovely ride it was - our once antagonist tries to change the narrative and make herself the protagonist but it’s not so easy when our male lead can read minds…

ONGOING:

The Remarried Empress

Boy, oh boy, do I have nothing but LOVE for this series. Again, a clever female protagonist just trying to do her job but her idiot husband keeps getting in the way so she finds herself a new man! LOVE.

Beatrice

Another one of those “I have another chance at life” webtoons with an adorably in love male lead who can’t quite figure out how to tell her just yet.

My First Night With The Duke

The “oh no I’ve somehow ended up in this novel” trope which I’ve come to adore. Our protagonist is hilarious and plucky and sends our poor duke into a tizzy.

Like Wind On A Dry Branch

The least amount of chapters so far and a bit of a slow burn but we’ll get there eventually. So far also a very different story compared to the others

Men of the Harem

Reverse harem? A female emperor? Yes please.

Under the Oak Tree (I ran out of space for pretty pictures) - also a slow burn but we’re building up

Lucia - a second chance but very dark background for the hero!

I am the Male Lead’s Ex-Girlfriend - I only just found this one but it’s already so so good; I love buttholes to live to regret their choices

I Don’t Love You Anymore - our female lead finally puts down her foot, gives up on her one sided love and moves on - and of course that means the idiot she loved only just realises he’s an idiot and wants her back. Too bad for him, she’s already got herself an even better man! And he’s a prince!

Father, I Don’t Want to Get Married! - combination of “help I’m in a novel” and the novel villainess gets a second chance at life - but how can her father be that good looking? Like I love the male lead, he’s adorable and slowly understanding that he’s attracted to her, but the father is actually melting me slowly

Villainous Violet - ditto the above trope but with so many men now in love with her and a super pissed off antagonist!

His Majesty’s Proposal - this time it’s the emperor doing the chasing and I love it

First Miss Reborn - 180+ chapters of revenge with our intelligent heroine foiling schemes at every turn and our devoted prince supporting and loving her every step of the way :’)

Midnight Rain - very different from all the others I’ve mentioned; starts out from kids to adults (we’ve only just reached the teens) but there’s horrible rich people, an illegitimate son and a budding love triangle.

Death is the Only Ending for the Villainess - I’ve heard a lot of buzz regarding this one and I love reverse harem and I like the fact that we get to quite literally see her progression in the love percentage bars above all the male leads’ heads!

Who Made Me a Princess - ngl, it took me a couple of chapters to get into this one but I pushed through because I’ve seen a lot of good reviews about this and it has not disappointed. Not as much romance as the above but the hot daddy theme is getting to me…

The Lady’s Law of Survival - a weak duchess dies and her body is taken over by a spirit who’s had several failed lives and is determined to make this one work - by kicking butt and taking names and getting revenge for the previous body’s owner! I really like this one

I’ll be the Matriarch in this Life - I finished all the available chapters in this so quickly; another reborn heroine who’s already slaying them all at the age of 8

The Reason Why Ophelia Can’t Get Away From the Duke - this one’s dark but seriously so good…new step siblings lose their parents in a tragic accident, the stepsister wants to leave but the stepbrother won’t let her? Intriguing. What’s the story behind the parents’ death?

I Became the Ugly Lady - a second chance, magic and mystery! I’m a sucker for a personality makeover and then all the good relationships that come with it!

The Villainess Lives Twice - a marriage of convenience, carefully crafted plans, and a hint of true love breaking through

Please give them a go - the art is gorgeous, the storytelling incredible and the memories fantastic. They’re the reason I’ve been waking into the early hours of the morning.

I’ll keep updating this post as I find more because there are so many and I wanna spread the love. I might also be a tad bit obsessed...
