Spring has yet to come--

Here's your Dae, up for our usual anime/manga chatting!
Today I wanna bother you with my thoughts on yesterday's Beelzebub (べるぜバブ), first--

These fillers are so bad that they can't even come with a decent conclusion XD
In "Furuichi falls in love", it's so obvious that in the end Johnny-san was supposed to be paired up with him XD But I assume that cutting it short like that was a better choice to keep the episode to itself (how fillers are supposed to)...
Also, I noticed a lack of fujoshiness in the anime, comprared to the manga :/ In the anime there are a good number of Kanzaki/Yuka and Furuichi/Lamia's subtexts... I don't like that >_>
Also, during the "St. Ishiyama Six Knights" arc, Miki obvious man-crush for Oga was removed. All the cute scenes where Miki asks Oga to call him by his name (Hisaya) and the lulzy "GROSS!" Oga's reaction are nowhere to be found .__.
Speaking of the manga, now that the arc about Hilda's memories is over I'm really curious to see what's going to happen :D
• I'm really surprised by how much I am enjoying watching Phi Brain (ファイ・ブレイン) o__o The animation is quite mediocre and the character design is pretty stereotyped and "boring", but everything works so well overall, and the series is quite enjoyable and amusing to watch!
In today's episode, cute Gammon decided to join the enemy so to resolve the frustration that Kaito made him feel about his skills since his first appearance--
I'm EXTREMELY amused by the idea of Gammon as a Giver :o !! I wonder if Gammon has ulterior motives behind this choice; his Kaito's bashing doesn't sound so honest as it should... Is he trying to take Rook's place into Kaito's heart, maybe XD ?
On a fujoshi note, you can tell that this series is good because I can't decide if Rook is the seme or the uke of Kaito XD
---Damn, I can't believe that I can't find doujinshi about it >_<; !!
• About Aquarion (アクエリオンEVOL)... So Apollo's "incarnation" is not Amata but Kagura XDD ?
By the way, I really hope that Shrade didn't die there ;_; There's no way he could ever be satisfied with his life without any GATTAI action with Cayenne ;___; !!!
• Speaking of Takayuki Yamaguchi, yesterday I poked around the internet looking around for some scans/infos on his collaboration with Shizuku Ichigono, Kaika no Susume (開花のススメ), a spin-off of Kakugo no Susume a la moe.
Unfortunately I couldn't get more about it, but that the protagonist is the younger sister of Kyouma, the guy introduced as Raiden in VOLTEX and-- APPARENTLY SHE WEARS RAIDEN TOO.
For what I spotted the art is HORRIBLY MOE, but I couldn't get any info about the contents of the story, and as usual no signs of scans (but considering how pricey Champion RED Ichigo magazine is, I guess that the most of people read it for free in the conbini)... I guess that I'll have to wait the volume release as I did for Exoskull to get more infos about it, oh, well :/

Date: 6/2/12 23:11 (UTC)They are similar, but Star Driver had a nicer plot (even if the conclusion didn't answer to many questions!!), was funnier to follow and the characters were WAY MORE well developed (even those who looked stupid and plain turned out interesting ò_o)-- It also came 10+ years later, so it's probably unjust to compare them under such aspects ^_^;;
But yeah, they shared the same "youthful" mecha spirit :3 Too bad for all the "fated" romance stuff =_=

Date: 7/2/12 01:21 (UTC)In my opinion, the only cool thing about Aquarion is that the mecha combined in different ways, but Getter Robot did that already in 1974...
...But I see that it's your fangirl's "gut feelings" making you talk XD !
It's my prerogative when I talk about certain series that I like too, and I know that there's no way to let your guard down here XD !

Date: 6/2/12 23:16 (UTC)--I had an "Apollo vibe" about Kagura when I saw his mecha jumping around like a dog and him sniffling and licking at people, but I was too distracted by Amata as the protagonist to actually consider it .__.;;
