First Impression: Valvrave the Liberator

Posted on May 20, 2013 by John

Try to pronounce Valvrave in Japanese > barubureibu… some sort of tongue twister

It’s been quite a while since I last had a new mecha series in my watchlist. This season we have Valvrave the Liberator which seems quite promising.

Not sure if this is another overbudget commercial for Bandai’s upcoming product or a hidden gem.

First Impression: Over Drive

Posted on February 4, 2013 by John

I remember that time I just got into cycling, naturally one would look for anything related to his hobby and I stumbled across this anime. It received good reviews which was written back in 2008 on MyAnimeList. I remember I had the complete series ready since 3 years ago, however I kept it on hold since then for unknown reason.

Chuunibyou Episode 02 – Flashy Battle Scene

Posted on October 23, 2012 by John

Nibutani Shinka is super gorgeous. Please shoot me too!!

In the first impression post, I mentioned that this series has an awkward story. To be frank, maybe it’s poking right at my own chuunibyou, and I’m such a loser for not admitting it.

After watching the second episode, I don’t know what enlightened me, probably Shinka-chan. Whatever it is, I came to realize one thing – Who cares about all that embarrassing shit? I’m gonna enjoy this show.

First Impression: Btooom!

Posted on October 22, 2012 by John

Btooom!, you pronounce it as “bu two-m”

I wonder what or who gave author the idea in the naming of this series. It’s like:

“Hey, since the story will be about bombs. why don’t we name it according to the sound of the explosion”

“But Booom! is too simple, why don’t we add T and make it BTOOOM!”

Let’s start up the season’s first impression post with the highly anticipated Little Busters!.

Now I must first clarify that I have not played the game nor have any knowledge in Little Busters! story background and settings. So, bear with my inexperienced comments. What a shame that I still call myself a Key fan.
