Comments on: 07-Ghost - 09 http://psgels.blogsome.com/2009/06/02/07-ghost-09/ An anime blog covering a large variety of series, both popular and underrated.

The way they tell the story is just... cheap. I tried to write a fantasy story myself years ago and now I start to think I should search a publisher, because if this 'thing' gets animated... well, my story will be a bestseller :-D Just joking. But I get the impression the mangaka didn't had a concept to begin with. She (or he) just... tried to make a fantasy story. One idea then leaded to the next one etc. At the end she (or he) probably had some luck and everything got together somehow. When it comes to storytelling I amdire anime like Ergo Proxy (an anime you have to watch twice to be able to really appreciate its greatness and watch three times to understand it), Night Head Genesis, some episodes of Jigoku Shoujo... well, that are different genres, I know. Anyway I watched today episode 9. What happend there? I can't even remember, perhaps because I felt asleep halfway. I wanted to drop this anime after episode 6, I didn't. But now I do, after seeing Mikage returning as a strange little something. Oh, it's pink. Don't ask me what my point is. I don't know it myself. Perhaps I am just a little upset, because I think some ideas in this show are nice, and the mangaka (I don't blame the creators even though it seems the manga is better) could have done much more with it. By the way: I would like to know why japanese people use so often german words in their anime. And they do such a bad job with it. I remember a country named "Kuchen" in "Meine Liebe" - no comment. And "Frau" is the most absurd name I have ever heard, it sounds just incredible strange, not to mention that it means "woman". Oh, and today I have watched an anime where a guy was named "Lohengramm" - OH MY GOD... Such things show me that they have no feeling for the german language. If it would be even funny, but sadly it's not :-( It's just incredible akward. psgels, I envy you for your… enthusiasm. 07 Ghost is sure one of the dullest things I have ever seen.

According to ANN, the total amount of episodes isn't known yet, and if there were indeed 13 of them, it would have been known by now. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=10468 chounokoe: um, where did you read that there were only going to be 13 episodes?

This would mean we get another 3 Episodes now, which would make 07 end in a similar dissapointing way like Amatsuki did.

It just annoys me how corny it became in the last few episodes-thankfully, though, considering what happens next in the manga, the trend is consistently shifting toward SHEER AWESOMENESS! At least, I hope so. We just have to pray that the show's staff can handle Teito's emo-ness as cleanly as they did Mikage's reincarnation. Mikage's pink and fluffy! So cute!

The relationships are pretty typical, except for Mikage and Teito, which i liked. The battles are fun to watch, not drawn out and believable with in the setting of the show. Though the fillers were kinda, fillerish, but not the worst i have seen. Overall, the show so far gets a B, enjoyable.. I am impressed with the show so far.

The cheese is okay, and typical- but at least they don’t go overboard with it like they did in Valkyrie Chronicles. Mikage reincarnated as a pink dragon was cute. :D As for future plot- if they’re going with the manga, and not some fillers, we’re going to meet Hakuren and more priests…and then training time. :D That is, if everything goes according to plan. Knowing Studio DEEN and all, we’ll see. I’m not very “happy” with this show, but what goes what goes. eh.
