It's getting these high ratings on both ANN and ANiDB and it's just... crap. It really has it all: crappy storylines, predictable "plot twists", mediocre character design, bad voice acting and no originality whatsoever! What more could you possibly want.

Because if they once try to break the mold and be cool, if they do THAT incorrectly, then it's pond for them. You know. Fish food. Killed. Simply walking into Mordor.

Sunrise most likelt saw how Koichi was recived, and decided not to take a chance." Than I guess independent girls isn't "in" either atm since they turned Akane into a stupid cow as well. “The “asshole” main lead is not “in” right now.

Of the new season, I'm able to blog six new series. Three of them are sequels, so that leaves three slots left for the new anime that air this season.

(: I like ridiculous premises for romantic comedy anime... like Midori Days with "girl becomes guy's right hand", or Onegai Teacher with "space alien falls in love with a boy who's 18, but looks 15, and is prone to narcoleptic fits, and she becomes his teacher for some reason"... or I My Me Strawberry Eggs, with "guy dresses like a woman to become a teacher at an all-girls school, and one of his students falls in love with him despite the fact that he's posing as a she and they're both totally straight". (: I don't mind cheezy dialogue or stupid situations, as long as they have just the right amount of campiness and kitschiness to them. I think this show stands a chance with me.

He's more like a modern day version of Luke from TOA except he doesn't have to do something stupid himself to wake up. I enjoyed his "assholish" antics in the manga as well as his growth, too bad here we have another woe is me lead. Boy I can't wait for them to adapt Unbalance X Unbalance (same author as KuroKami) and turn the best harem lead I've seen into a total wuss. lol @ Keita being worse than Kouichi, just lol.
