The Blue Fox Alley

What can I say? Better late than never and this post is rather essential. I mean, the P-Meister was whining about my random posts like this and that.

 It has been a bumpy ride and it will continue to be that way. While the P-Meister and I continue to seek our comfort zone in blogging, this blog has been a bowl of random shit. So much that my alter-ego, ID Sojourner, has been running around and having some fun of his own.

 Well I have to assure you peeps that we do follow ongoing shows of the current season. But unfortunately I do not really do episodic summaries and my friend P-Meister does his normally after viewing 5 episodes which makes them not really episodic.

So what I would usually do is write my feelings toward the shows and not summaries on them. Why is that so? That is because episodic summaries require a lot of humour and I suck at that. Sooner or later I will run out of funny thoughts and all picture captions will be reduced to *Insert Funny Quote* and I doubt that will bring the lulz.

As for the P-Meister, he is usually slow on his posts because of his ReAL LiFe that comprises of being a medicine student, tending to a girlfriend who forces him to watch Korean dramas and playing a stupid MMORPG called Guild Wars (not really part of the real world actually). One reason why Guild Wars is stupid is because there is a profession called Assassin and you see lots of those being played by teenagers who name them UzuzumakiNarut0 or Sasuk3Best44.

 I did mention why this post is essential because it is meant to accentuate on the fact that THIS IS AN ANIME BLOG. Well then, let us see what the minstrels of the Blue Fox Alley have their eyes on this Spring.

The P-Meister’s List

1. Soul Eater

 This anime is special for its wonderful artwork. The fight scenes and other animation are beautifully animated, with melee attacks not represented by flash, bangs and shadows but by good character animation. Besides that, it is not lacking in humour and depth. Guess who did the music… Taku Iwasaki! The same guy who did it for TTGL!! Wanna get some blood pumping? Don’t miss this!!

2. Amatsuki

An anime set in the Edo period brings about something different. This anime I would say is one of the more emotionally exciting ones this season. It is 13 episodes long but not widely advertised. I guarantee that its eye candy and wouldn’t annoy you. Some parts really makes u wonder what you will do if u could travel to the past. Anyway, I’m SURE there will be a second season too. The anime is going at the perfect pace so we won’t need to worry about it being spoiled by fillers.

3. Kyouran Kazoku Nikki

Probably one of the most craziest anime to watch!! All the chaos and madness makes its storyline not matter at all. Everything is random and gives you brainspasms after watching! It moves at a speed where humans cannot follow! The best thing is… ITS ENJOYABLE!

4. Macross Frontier

Somehow everyone is watching this right? The nice 3D battles are what make me happy. GO WAMMO MECHAS!! Pictures below under Sojourner section.

5. To Love Ru

No particular reason, I found a dating/rape/submission sim with Haruna in it. LOL. Refer to above picture. If you want to know where to get it, email me… oops, you don’t have my email, oh well!!

As I’m having exams atm, I created a To-Watch List. I’ll be doing a mid-term review, so look forward to them.

The Sojourner’s List

1. Itazura Na Kiss

I see unconventional dynamics are work in this show perhaps? Surely we can expect a Happy Ending™ when this show comes to an end but hey it is always the process that matters. Here we have the guy as an academic elite while the girl on the other hand is quite at the bottom of the academic food chain. As I have mentioned, it is the journey and not the destination that matters. I am going to keep watching this show as long as it amuses or charms me. P.S I think Kotoko is evil but that is fine with me.

2. Kaiba

lolwhut. I am guilty! I am guilty! Oh what an intellectual narcissist I am. Obscure drawing as compared to current moe-style art means different for me. I must watching something that is different to prove that I am smart and capable of appreciating sophisticated stuff like Kaiba! Watching Kaiba = I rock. Alright that was stupid.

On a more serious note. The message that Kaiba is trying to send is still alluding me due to my poor perception. However it is still very intriguing to follow.

3. Macross Frontier

There is one very simple method to brainwash me into following a show fervently. Hint: Usage of music as one of the themes for the story. To put it simply, Macross Frontier has what the fans have always loved the franchise about. You can be new to Macross and still fall for it.  So what is so great about it? Nothing beats finding it out yourself, go watch it if you have not done so.

4. Code Geass, Lelouch of the Rebellion R2

Before

After

Oh Lelouch. As you can see… Your warped sense of idealism has changed your features. 

This show is like a tsundere to me. It screws with my mind with its bombastic galore of unrealistic theatricals and yet I keep coming back for more. If Macross Frontier is the Sun of my current anime viewing, then Code Geass R2 is the Moon. I cannot live without watching Code Geass, it is quite good in a sense.

What makes Code Geass so great is that Lelouch and Suzaku are not your conventional ‘protagonist’ and ‘antagonist’. In fact, I do not even know who is the good guy and the bad guy.  

There are also other shows that are on my To-Watch List. My intuition tells me that I will probably like them.

. Toshokan Sensou

. Daughter of Twenty Faces

So what are the shows that you are following at the moment? Why are you following them and what do they mean to you?
