It sounded pretty good... I thought the episode wasn't that bad... Maybe it was the weakest episode yet, and it did have more fanservice than is healthy for it, but it was ok. It got a few chuckles from me. Does anyone know what is the song that plays exactly after the opening of Natsu no Arashi? It sounded pretty good…

There are many blogs that give focus to different genres, according to the owner's tastes. People follow blogs that reasonably go for their same tastes. So, being this a blog that gives credit to other than fancy graphics, light entertainment and mainstream series, and mostly despise stereotypes, you clearly are out of place here. Stop asking why your average nice kiddy show wasn't blogged in favour of other less known and difficult shows. Those are serious and incomprehensible stuff (mostly) not for kids, you can't reasonably like them. Go play elsewere or try to stay here and understand this blogger's judgement criteria. You may find something new and better than your beloved stereotypes. wtfblog, you clearly like other kind of shows than this blog owner.

And that's the case with a lot of comedies this season. I could be wrong, of course, but that's why these posts are called "quick first impressions". They're not meant for me to fully judge shows, but rather to determine which series I'm going to follow this season. As for why I dropped Valkyria Chronicles, it was getting tedious to blog it. wtf: the reason why I rate so many comedies with low potential is simply because I’m judging them as comedies: if they can make me laugh, they’re fine, but if they can’t make me laugh, didn’t they just fail as comedies?

(implies a 99% male audience :P) Going back to subject: I think that old school designs belong to a certain caste of elite artists, so those that try and attempt to imitate the Miyazaki style fail on all aspects since there is only 1 Miyazaki. I also think that anime that work well are those that work with a stereotipical formula in most cases. (which explains why anime which are uncommon like Guin Saga and Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 get a good rating. Since they go out of the hero-friends-goal-ennemy..etc formula.) Some anime didn't get credited right in my opinion, on this blog. Valkyria Chronicles was dropped after 6th episode,which was like (wtf?) (ok the story is not perfect and there were flaws in the way the battles were animated, but overall it did what it had to do. Also there is a pretty solid fanbase behind it. (because of the game) So dropping it was very strange. (at least imo) Also on this blog certain animes that "certain" people might want to see; comedy, etc. ; get potential rates at: 0%, 10% 20% But you can't just base a potential of a series on a preview or 1 introducing episode at most. (which in a large number of cases are never the best) For example right from start you could say 07-ghost is bishounen in appearance so it has a yaoi-side bla bla etc, 0% for yaoi (ofc that didn't happen) but like you should probably take more the public opinion. I donno ask people if they think its an honorable estimation. Take in count the various fanbases and how they react before giving 0%. Otherwise you have the best english anime blog out there, with a very systematic organisation, so keep up and dont feel offended if I went too harshly on my opinions :o Dragon Ball and Naruto are ok if you never seen an anime in your life D: if you like it sure why not, everyone starts with a shonen.

If it's lacking, doesn't that mean that there's none of it? Besides, Strange Dawn, Kaiba and Kooniciwa Anne don't attempt to be comedies at all, and instead go for a serious story with serious character-development, and that's what I like about them. Apparently, you're more into humour, which indeed makes Sora no Otoshimono and Natsu no Arashi a better choice. How exactly can something be “filled with an overdose of lacking humour”?

I just got into Bartender myself. I'll be waiting for the day you watch Aria, probably the best Iyashikei available in anime form in my opinion, since the YKK OVAs don't do the manga justice (just because they're TOO short). @psgels: Thanks for answering my question.

(kaiba,strange dawn, etc...) Usually filled with an overdose of lacking humor and third-class attempt to build up realism, often making them appear Communistically ugly like that anime "Konnichiwa Anne"; Which is easily outclassed by the likes of Doreamon and Nobu in terms of effort to production. And why the hell not add Hamtaro as well while we are at it...

It's one thing for anime to have unrealistic hair colours, but this is just too extreme. wtf: you just answered your own question: there is quality in every anime, and I’m just giving every anime a chance to impress me.

Maybe the green hair from Tsukishima is a bit unusual/exaggerated though. Apart from that I won't say that the whole series does not seem pretty ridiculous to me but I guess if I'll ever watch it that is exactly the reason why I'd do it.

Train stations incarnated into bishies sounds so bizarre, I guess it's some kind of cultural shinto influence (of which Hetalia axis powers and akikan must be other manifestations). The series looks terrible, but I think it will be a guilty pleasure, as long as they manage to find more interesting stories than that of some random lonely teen.
