She's what made me continue watching the rest of the first episode, and now, the rest of the series. As for Rosario+Vampire Capu2... well, I've seen a bit of it and it isn't that bad. You're probably just asking for too much (or looking for something else) from this type of series. If nothing else, the opening is fun to watch. Lyuze’s cute.

Considering the source material, I feel my expectations were met; it looked good, it set the proper mood, and the story is light-years better (relatively anyway) than the original series from 1973 (and that stupid movie). Hence, I'll give it a few more episodes to develop before letting the pessimism sink in.... Otherwise, I agreed with the rest of psgels first looks, though Shikabane Hime seem..iffy to say the least.

I cannot watch Casshern without her!! Well, beside that, the first episode showed no actual plot. It was all for the mood. And the mood has always been this dark with Casshern... It seemed now Casshern has the role of the anti-hero, when it was a saviour in the old serie... PS: the pink robot girl was horrible. Her face resembled those rugrats. iper bleh... As for Rosario+Vampire, I found the first serie was quite enjoyable. I hope They'l bring some better stuff out of the manga in this second season. The situation will become hard for Tsukune-kun. Said that, both series cannot sure compare with the manga. Little animation can actually compare with their manga siblings. This is a real pity indeed :/ OMG where’s my Luna?

Stay very far away from this one :p. Nah, wasn't intrested in Rosario + Vampire anyhow. Now I definitly want to check out shikabane hime Aka tough Weeh, 2/10, you’ve done it, lowest score so far I’ve seen ;). Stay very far away from this one :p.

I still wonder how much boobs can affect the anime industry to produce something like this on and on ,well whatever. I didn't expect you would like Shikabane Hime , guess I have to check it out.

More like GONZO ruined Rosario to Vampire
I heard it’s manga version is better

I am glad Shikabane Hime Aka turned great it’s one of the series I am looking foward to watch ^_^

Definitely at the top of my list for Wednesday's, will be watching rosario to vampire capu 2 also (what can i say..the first season grew on me, plus i like the characters.

The original anime is from 73, and it's "Super Robots", I think it's clear enough that we WON'T get some development or actual plot ; the kind of shows I watch just to put off my brain and gaze at how beautiful the animation is. Rosario to Vampire, huh ? Well, at least, this time, they warned us in the title : CAPU (= ça pue, "it stinks" in french :P). Shikabane Hime looks promising. Gainax + Gurren Lagann-y animation - plot = epic win.

I wasn't planning on watching Shikabane Hime Aka, but if you enjoyed it than I guess I'll give it a chance :D That’s too bad you didn’t like Casshern, I was really looking forward to it, but I guess it’s still possible that I myself might like it.

Is it just me or does the plot sound similar to blade of immortal. Instead of a samurai dude, ur getting a girl, instead of killing bad guys, ur killing zombies/undead to go to heaven, instead of swords, we get guns. Anyways, I am waiting for the sub. T.T btw, I dropped blade of immortals after watching the first episode. too painful...they completely obliterated all potential the show had. and no, I never read the manga. oh and if they managed to turn this show into "a cheesy love triangle" or a stupid turtle speed romance or...basically if they manage to screw even this up...then well...end of all hope? xD I am glad u liked shikabane hime.

Jeez is it giving me Hi no Tori vibes, but otherwise agreed. Apparently it's a sequel to a much older series, which could explain the lack of actual development, but even the wonderful fight scenes started to drag after a while without much explanation. At least there's the fact that it's pretty. And pretty. And really, REALLY fucking pretty. Like Soul Eater but more so, won't need a phenomenal plot to enjoy this. Hell, the plot doesn't even have to be decent if there are a bunch of good characters, like Ringo and the pink-haired girl. Though somewhat more colorful dialogue with the eye candy would do a lot.
