Review No.3 : Seitokai Yakuindomo

Seitokai Yakuindomo is a comedy, slice of life type of anime. There isn't a main plot going in this anime. The background is this boy, Takatoshi Tsuda, has entered this school which was previously an all girls school that was just opened to become co-ed and the population consists of mainly female. So Tsuda entered this school and was asked to join the student council as vice-president and a male representative. So as the name of this anime suggests, translated literally as Student Council Staff Members, the whole series will revolve around the student council members, and every episode is basically flooded with sexual innuendos.

The student council consists of 4 members in total, Shino the black hair president, Aria the airhead fan service , Suzu the blonde loli tsundere and Tsuda the only guy in the council.

There is many thing i liked about this anime. It funny in many ways and these slice of life comedy animes are my favourite. Believe me when i said earlier that it is flooded with sexual innuendos, is like that is their selling point of the whole anime o.o   

Here is some example








Look at their totally innocent face while saying all those sexual things... 

And this is my all time favourite scene from Seitokai, the Deer rape. LOL





I had a really good chuckle watching this anime and i would really recommend everyone to watch it! 

*watch it alone, it gets really awkward watching it with someone......

I rate this anime 7.5/10. Since it is not a serious anime it isn't really up to the standard of those high quality animes. But it is a good pass time to watch it though.

Review No.2 : Sword Art Online

SAO, the 2012 most popular anime. Reki Kawahara san's best light novel revolves around people trapped in video games. lol.  The story is about SAO, a Virtual Reality Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (VRMMORPG), was released for the console Nerve Gear that stimulates the user's five senses via their brain and let players experience and control their in-game characters with their minds. Everyone is so darn excited about this game and wanted to try it out this super popular game. While they were playing the game, they realised that they are unable to log out from the game.

So the players were trapped inside the game by the game's creator and the only way to get out of the game is to defeat the final boss of the game. So the player are in a situation similar to a comma on their actual body and if they die in the game or the nerve gear is forcefully removed, the player would die. The story goes on with kirito the main character trying to beat all the stages. He later befriended asuna and they even got married in game! The timelapses after 2 year where kirito has defeated the supposed final boss who turns out to be the best guild's guild master and also the creator of the game.

After kirito clearing the game, all the the survivors returned back to their bodies except for asuna and 300 other players. Kirito later found out that asuna was imprisoned       
in another VRMMORPG called ALO. So he venture out to save asuna from the game and also to stop the scheme of Nobuyuki Sugo, the person responsible of asuna being trapped inside ALO and doing experiments on the ALO players bodies.

After some struggles in the game, kirito has eventually defeated sugo with the help of the former creator of SAO and saved the imprisoned players from the game.

SAO may be the most popular anime of 2012 but to me, it wasn't the best. However it is still a good anime and you definitely should have already watched ( If not go watch now! ). At first i thought that the whole SAO thing would revolve around just SAO and didn't expect any ALO or gun gale to come ( sorry, didn't read the light novel ). I was actually disappointed that they didn't really showed much action in SAO, like i was expecting more detail like how they clear each stage and how the system works. It was all not very clear and really had my interest. Also, I TOTALLY DID NOT EXPECT THEM TO GET MARRIED. Like wtf?!?! A little romance is enough in such an anime, getting married is abit too far..... ( although it is just in-game ). Frankly speaking, SAO is not my favourite type of anime but the society likes it so.... oh well, just like gangnam style :/ 

There have been many debates about will there be a second season for SAO, well, the producers would definitely like to produce the second season but according to them but they have other projects to work so i think there might not be a second season got SAO in the near future. Just wondering since the SAO game has already died down after ALO , so if there is a second season, will they still call it SAO season 2? But most likely season 2 would be about Gun Gale, so which do you think is a more suitable name for the upcoming season? SAO2 or maybe something like GGO (gun gale online)?


According to some of the images i see, asuna doesn't seems to be in gun gale and there seems to be a new female lead ( left ) x.x  and kirito looks really girly ( right ).... But it still looks awesome. I would really be looking forward to having another season of SAO!

I rate SAO 8.5/10. It may be a 9 or 10 for most people but it is not really my cup of tea.

Review No.1 : Natsume Yuujinchou

Natsume Yuujinchou, is about Natsume Takashi who has inherited the ability to see spirits. He has also gotten a Yuujinchou, a book containing the names of spirits his grandmother (Natsume Reiko) had bullied and made them her servant (?) . The story goes on the daily life of Takashi and his encounter with the different spirits, some requesting to get their name back from the yuujinchou and some others trying to get hold of the yuujinchou. 

Natsume also had this " bodyguard " Nyanko Sensei in the form of a chubby cat with orange and grey patterns on it, while its true from is a giant wolf like creature called Madara. Nyanko sensei promised to protect natsume from the yokai until he natsume dies and he would inherit the yuujinchou after natsume dies. 

As i see it, nyanko sensei has a totally different personality when he is in the cat form compared to his original form. Nyanko sensei is like some ojisan that nags, drinks and does nothing much whereas madara is like the savior of every episode, saving all the trouble natsume get into.


 Natsume Yuujinchou currently has 4 seasons. It does not really has a main story plot, a little similar to Jigoku Shoujo series and the stories gets boring sometimes. It may be entertaining at first but I find it abit hard to finish 4 seasons at one shot because the stories gets too cliche sometimes and it may be a bit too repetitive at times. It is not really an anime that is worth watching at this age since there are so many better animes right now, maybe if you are maniac that has finished most animes around then maybe this is worth a try to pass your time.


I rate this anime a 6.5/10. It is not a lousy anime but i really gets repetitive and boring at times.
