When Kagemitsu's first son is born, the boy has no limbs, no nose, no eyes, no ears, nor even skin—yet still, he lives. This child is disposed of in a river and forgotten. But as luck would have it, he is saved by a medicine man who provides him with prosthetics and weapons, allowing for him to survive and fend for himself. The boy lives and grows, and although he cannot see, hear, or feel anything, he must defeat the demons that took him as sacrifice. With the death of each one, he regains a part of himself that is rightfully his. For many years he wanders alone, until one day an orphan boy, Dororo, befriends him.

Ikemen Sengoku: Uesugi Route Dramatic Ending and Midnight Cinderella: Rayvis Harneit Honey Route, Alyn Crawford Sugar Route Reviews

Heya! It's been a while!! I was in hiatus with Otome games but I am back again for some time now. I tried to re-download Decoding Desire and Rental Boyfriends that was OKKO's games but I can't find them in the store. I actually don't know what happened. So I am playing with CYBIRD's games now. I added another game from that developer entitled "Ikemen Vampire" part of their "Ikemen Series" and so far I am enjoying it. Currently, I am with Napoleon's route though I wanted to go with Isaac Newton's route (BECAUSE IT WAS AOI SHOUTA WHO VOICED HIM T-T)

I was playing Mystic Messenger for quite some time now, aiming to have a Good Ending for Saeran (Last time it was Happy Ending. yup, it is different) but now I always got a Bad Ending even though I already bought the whole first 5 days chat with hour glasses to ensure it. I just caaaan't (T-T)

Anyway here are my reviews:

Vinland Saga Anime Review

Title: Vinland Saga
Genre: Adventure, Historical, Fiction
Written by: Makoto Yukimura
Synopsis: Young Thorfinn grew up listening to the stories of old sailors that had traveled the ocean and reached the place of legend, Vinland. It's said to be warm and fertile, a place where there would be no need for fighting—not at all like the frozen village in Iceland where he was born, and certainly not like his current life as a mercenary. War is his home now. Though his father once told him, "You have no enemies, nobody does. There is nobody who it's okay to hurt," as he grew, Thorfinn knew that nothing was further from the truth.
 The war between England and the Danes grows worse with each passing year. Death has become commonplace, and the viking mercenaries are loving every moment of it. Allying with either side will cause a massive swing in the balance of power, and the vikings are happy to make names for themselves and take any spoils they earn along the way. Among the chaos, Thorfinn must take his revenge and kill the man who murdered his father, Askeladd. The only paradise for the vikings, it seems, is the era of war and death that rages on. (https://myanimelist.net/anime/37521/Vinland_Saga)

(Sophie and Howl's Moving Castle)

Thoughts:
This my third Studio Ghibli movie that I watched. The first one is Spirited Away and the other is Princess Mononoke so I know how positive I am as I started watching this film. Studio Ghibli is one of the best anime production that has been watched and I am ashamed that I only started watching its movies this year. By watching the three movies, I will conclude that the movies of produced by Studio Ghibli are teaching the viewers the importance of love, life lessons and tightening friendship.

(Sophie and Howl's first meeting)

Animation/ Art Style: 11/10
This film was released around 90s and I am impressed how good the animation is. I can even compare it with Your Name of Makoto Shinkai. It has good background pictures and a good animation. This film stimulates more of your imagination with magic.

Soundtrack: 9/10

Overall: 11/10
A very recommended film to all types of people and ages. All Studio films are a good thing to watch.


Look how handsome Howl is ;----;

The Promised Neverland Anime Review

Title: Yakusoku no Neverland (The Promised Neverland)
Genre: Dark Fantasy, Science Fiction, Thriller
Written By: Kaiu Shirai
 Synopsis: Set in the year 666 , Emma is an 11-year-old orphan living in Grace Field House, a small orphanage housing her and her 37 siblings. Life had never been better; with food that tasted gourmet, plush beds, snow-white uniforms, and the love of their "Mother" (the caretaker) Isabella, as well the litany of daily exams that Emma always aced with her two best friends Ray and Norman. The orphans are allowed to do whatever they please, except venture out of the compounds or the gate that connects the house to the outside world. On a fateful night, an orphan named Conny is sent away to be adopted, but Emma and Norman follow her after noticing that she had left her stuffed rabbit toy, Little Bunny, back at the house. Sneaking out, they find Conny dead and the truth of the existence of this supposed orphanage to be a farm where human children are raised as food for the Demons. Worse still, Isabella is in allegiance with the Demons, ripping away at everything the two ever thought they knew. Determined to break out of Grace Field House, Norman and Emma partner up with Ray to peel away at the façade of the farm and find a way to escape with all their other siblings. (Wikipedia)

(The Grace Field children and it's "mamas")

Thoughts:

The same with Banana Fish, I always saw this anime in the top 1 of the the top 10 anime list while it is still airing. Being cautious enough (I really got a cautious because of what happen to me with Banana Fish. Curiosity really kills a cat!), I watched this anime as soon as the last episode finished airing.

(One of the most thrilling scenes in TPN. Mamais starting to doubt Emma and Norman)

This anime is the same with Shingeki no Kyojin (Attack on Titan). This anime requires a lot of thinking with strategies to break out from the wall of Grace Field. The only thing that will make you very anxious is the main protagonists are only turning 12 years old. They are trying to absorb the fact that they are actually gonna die inside the Grace Field house. That idea alone is disturbing enough for me.

(The three main protagonists from left to right; Norman, Ray and Emma)

Recently, I read the manga and I am still amazed how these kids ranging from 6-12 years old were able to survive the land of the demons. A lot of plot twists are present in the story and of course more favorite character deaths (I feel so numb about this. Thank you Banana Fish and Attack on Titan.).

Animation: (10/10)

Clover Works did the anime adaptation and I would say that it is a good one! Nothing to discuss about bad animation.

Soundtrack: (10/10)

The opening anime theme "Touch off" was sung by UVERworld! The same band who sung the 4th opening theme of Boku no Hero Academia (My Hero Academia) "Odd Future" and Bleach's 2nd opening theme "D-Technolife". This band has made it's name by singing a lot of anime theme songs of the popular animes from before up until now.

The ending song was entitled "Zettai Zetsumei" sung by Cö shu Nie is also good. While the ending theme animation is presenting the small moments of the children inside the house, the song's melody is creepy enough to describe the anime plot.

(Each child from Grace Field House has a "tagging" on their necks)

Overall: (10/10)

Recommended to those people who likes to watch angst stories and strategic plots. Good for over 13 viewers only! Some scenes are really disturbing.


Now look at this cute little adorable Phil. I am really sure, he is the star of this story.

Mob Psycho 100 Anime Review

Title: Mob Psycho 100
Genre: Action, Comedy, Supernatural
Written By: One
Synopsis: Kageyama Shigeo aka Mob is a powerful esper and wanted to live a normal life like the other kids. One day, he went to Reigen Arataka's , a self-proclaimed psychic, office to express himself and tell the truth about his power. Later, Mob was hired as Reigen's trainee on how to use his powers effectively and how to live his life normally.

Thoughts:
The first thing that I realized about his anime in the first minutes of watching the first episode is: "Is this animated by bones?" And hurray it was animated by bones! (should I make a list of animes animated by bones soon? with this I shall add a label "bones") If you were able to read my reviews about Boku no Hero Academia (oh haven't reviewed that yet! Kuso. I'll review it once the season 4 finished airing) and Noragami or other reviews, I am always hyped if the anime was animated by bones. I don't remember if I really mentioned it here but I am a fan of bones studio. Their animation is very superb. So, this anime have a hell of an animation. I assure you it is one of the animes that you must not miss.

One is the mangaka of One Punch Man so it's a little bit the same with story with the latter. Mob is a very powerful esper. And if I say very, It's most likely stronger than you think. Like Saitama in One Punch Man, Mob is wishing a normal thing.

The art is too unique as well. They looked like Saitama's eggfaced. As for the plot, the plot is the synopsis that I wrote above. That simple. The thing that you wouldn't want to miss is how powerful he is.

Animation: 11/10
I know I look like I am being biased but bones animation are the coolest thing you'll ever saw. Well, if it's Your Name and Garden of Words, it's a different story. Come to think of it, Ouran High School Host Club was animated by bones too. Hell I am just talking about bones here. I am so sorry.

Soundtrack: 10/10

The opening and ending songs of this anime is really something too. The hype will rise as you hear the opening song especially [99.9] by Mob Choir feat. sajou no hana in Season 2 opening song. I was really hyped while listening to it.

Overall: 10/10
I recommend this to you right now. Watch it right now. As in RIGHT NOW. You are missing so much if you haven't watched it.

Gintama 2: Rules are Made to be Broken Live-Action Movie Review

w/n: It's been a while. It's been two months since I last wrote a review here. I was really busy doing school stuff and reading BL Mangas for my recommendation list. Plus, I added some animes to watch and my Johnny's WEST fandom made me busy as well. That is why I really got no time to open my blog to update (ugh it sucks to have a loooot of fandom to flail of). Since summer has begun, I will be here most of the time giving comments on the anime I've watched and mangas I've read during my hiatus. 

Right now, I am re-watching Proposal Daisakusen in which it was aired in 2007 leading by Yamashita Tomohisa as the protagonist. I am playing a mobile games as well, Attack on Titan:Assault and Pokemon Go. I've read a loooot of BL Mangas and recently I finished "Killing Stalking" by Koogi in two nights only <3. Recently, I finished Mob Psycho 100 and watching Gyakuten Saiban. Sooooo expect a lot for the coming days!

I've been waiting for Gintama 2 movie to be released so this will be the first thing to review!

Title: Gintama 2: Rules are Made to be Broken

Genre: Chanbara, Comedy, Science Fiction

Based on/Written By: Hideaki Sorachi

Synopsis: Twenty years ago, Edo-period Japan suffered a great cultural shock—the aliens called Amanto invaded the Earth, overpowered the nation's government, and outlawed the carrying of swords by the once proud samurai. Moreover, the aliens took the people's jobs and are currently running Japan as a sweatshop using the natives as laborers. In this strange new era are Gintoki Sakata, an eccentric samurai whose personal trademarks are his naturally permed silver hair, his love of anything sweet, and his addiction to Shonen Jump; Shinpachi Shimura, the teenaged heir of the Kakido-Ryu style; and Kagura, an incredibly strong alien girl from the powerful Yato clan. The trio are self-employed in an odd jobs shop called Yoruzuya Gin-chan, which offers to do almost anything for a price, from finding lost kittens to saving the world. Unfortunately, the jobs rarely go as planned, or pay enough to cover the pain and suffering the employees encounter—never mind their rent.

(source: MyAnimeList)


Thoughts: 

PERFECT.

If I am going to explain the live-action movie of Gintama. I would tell you it's perfect. In my previous review about Gintama's first live-action movie, I said that the movie won't be recommended to those who haven't watched the anime or read the manga but with the second movie, it will be okay! Though it is really better to read the manga or watch the anime. The only thing that you will miss if you are not an anime watcher, is how deep the relationship of the characters with Gintoki. You won't be able to understand the scenes thoroughly. You will be able to understand the flow of the story but the emotions that was felt in every scene will be different if you compare it with the manga readers and anime watchers. 

(Pachi and Ginko working in a cabaret)

Honestly, I finally tag this movie as my best live-action movie I ever watched. Before this, it was Fullmetal Alchemist. This live-action is literally what the viewers are looking for. From the actors that delivered the characters' personality up until the BGM, comedy, parodies and setting. Everything was from the anime (still can't compare it with the manga cause I haven't read it. It's too looooong~) I even re-watched the arcs to prove it to myself, though some scenes from the anime was not shown in the movie cause it's 100% dirty jokes. Maybe the producers wanted it to be a family-friendly movie. Other than that, I have nothing to judge. This movie is so perfect! 

(comparison of a scene from Shisengumi Crisis arc)

Cinematography: 10/10
The movie is really well-made! Expect the best sword fight scenes (oh it came out so wrong. I feel so bad. This is because I read a lot of BL Mangas ;-;) and the sadistic fight of Okita Sougo will be seen! OkiKagu will be present as well! (hurray to us shippers!) Yay! The CG scenes are perfect as well, honestly, it is better than the first movie. 

(Okita and Kagura vs. Shisengumi)

I didn't show a lot of fight scenes cause it'll spoil the hype.

Soundtrack: 10/10
This movie actually used the OSTs of the Gintama anime! I can't say anything more! They did what is right. 

Overall: 11/10

PERFECTLY PERFECT <3 

Banana Fish Anime Review

Title: Banana Fish
Genre: Crime, Thriller
Written By: Akimi Yoshida
Synopsis: Ash Lynx is a 17 year old boy who is a boss of a gang in America. One night while he was walking down a dark street he met a dying person talking about "Banana Fish" which was the last words heard from his brother. With this he started to investigate what is Banana Fish without knowing that he is trying to enter the deeper world of Golzine (Ash' "owner") and fought to live and destroy that man with Okumura Eiji.

(Ash' bravery even though he was about to be raped ;-;)

Thoughts: While Banana Fish is still airing, my friend and I actually was wondering why this anime is always sitting on the number one spot of the of the weekly top 10. Then a lot of anime fans trying to ship the two protagonists of Banana Fish. As a proud fujoshis, my friend and I waited for this series to be finished airing to binge watch it after thinking that this might be one of the BL (Boy's Love) Manga that was adapted to animation.

This anime is like Fullmetal Alchemist (FMA) that makes every fan cry or feel a great sting on their chest, or might be better than FMA when it comes with dark plots. The story involves war, crime, prostitution, murder, gang, rape and real life stories. Personally, I think this is darker than FMA.

(Eiji talking about Ash)

I cried a lot. This anime hurts my heart and makes me think "why am I living like this?", "my life is actually better than I think". Ash is just a teenager who can use gun and kill every man that needs to be killed for Eiji. He was also living in hell, being raped with different kinds of man and dealing with people with authorities. Try to think of it. He is just 17 years old, When I am in that age, I just shrugged of my homework!

(Ash and Eiji acting like kids ;-;)

Ash and Eiji's love for each other actually exceeded the romantic love that we know. They are connected not with just the word "friends" but also with "trust", "faith" and "soul" and I think that is beautiful. I consider this anime as BL since the two male protagonists have this unbreakable connection to each other.

(Ash talking about Eiji)

After watching this anime, I read the last chapters of the manga. We finally understood why this anime always at the top and Shingeki no Kyojin (I am a SNK fan afterall) is either second or lower.

(Ash while chasing the car who kidnapped Skipper and Eiji)

Animation: 10/10
I am impressed that they mostly restored the art plus the animation is just my type of animation. It is much alike with BONES. They have this little movements that actually makes you think that it was the right way of making the characters move.

(Eiji's letter)

Soundtrack: 10/10
The opening and ending songs were made just for this anime. It really suits with the mood and graveness of the story. Plus the original soundtrack was also cool. It actually made the character cooler.

Overall: 10/10
Perfectly recommended for above 18 viewers! Ready a box of tissue cause feels are going to eat you up each episode!

A little heart fluttering photo of Ash to reduce the bittersweet feeling that I am feeling while i write this blog. This anime really made an impact on me. Anyways, to know the real ending of Banana fish, read the manga's last two chapters (I think) and you will read the story of Eiji after 8 years.
