Ms. Perri perform live this past Sunday 5/8/2011 in Seattle. My wife and I both wanted the album after her set. While she was great live, the album is way better, with excellent recordings of terrific songs. "lovestrong" is one of those pleasant exceptions where every track is strong ... and contrary to another reviewer's impression, I find a range of experiences here. "Penguin," for example, is my wife's favorite, and my least favorite, and quite different from "Jar of Hearts," which is still my own favorite.

Angel Beats Complete Collection

noreply@blogger.com (Nur) — Thu, 5 Apr 2012 04:29:00 -0700

Angel Beats Complete CollectionThe story in this anime has soo much potential, that its a shame it was only made a 13 episode series, the cast of characters is quite big and you get attached somehow to most of them so its really disappointing how they only focused on the backstories of a mere few, you could say this is the biggest gripe I have with this series.

The animation, music, characters and story are all top notch, and it should be viewed by everyone at least once, I gave it a 4 outta 5 becuase it was obvious this anime needed a few more episodes as stated in many message boards during the time of broadcast, either that or not make all the characters soo awesome

High School of the Dead Complete Collection

noreply@blogger.com (Nur) — Mon, 5 Mar 2012 04:28:00 -0800

Angel Beats Complete Collection Much of the film is spent running from zombies and taking shelter from place to place while showing how the world has turned into total chaos and anarchy all around them as the zombie plague spreads.There are so many scenes with bouncing boobies, naughty poses, revealing outfits and girls moaning over anything that it feels like im watching a porno film with action in it. Not to say thats a bad thing but sometimes it feels like its a little over the top for a normal anime.

The first season was pretty short (12 episodes) but it had some good foundations laid out for character relationships in season 2 (mostly Rei & Saeko with Takashi) or possibly even Saya with Kohta after seeing episode 12 (although she likes Takashi alot more). It will be interesting to see a season 2 if they ever make one to see if any of the other main characters familys survived the zombie plague and to find out what the cause of the plague was to begin with.

High School of the Dead Complete Collection High School of the Dead Complete Collection

noreply@blogger.com (Nur) — Wed, 7 Dec 2011 03:45:00 -0800

he broadcast series High School of the Dead (2010) opens on an ordinary day at Fujima Academy in Tokyo--until hordes of zombies begin attacking people. Anyone who's bitten by them is either devoured or turned into a zombie. Sophomore Takashi Komuro, four of his friends, and Ms. Shizuka, the overendowed school nurse, fight their way out of the school and struggle to survive in a world gone mad. Using swords, baseball bats, and an arsenal of high-tech weapons and vehicles, the teenagers beat, blast, and flatten their grisly foes. The cause of the zombie plague is just one of the many important plot points that's never explained, but director Tetsuro Araki isn't really interested in presenting a coherent story. He keeps the camera looking up the girls' skirts, down their blouses, or at blank walls that get splattered with blood. In one shot certain to go down in fan-service history, he follows a projectile over one girl's breasts and under another's skirt--in slow motion. Hormonal adolescent boys who enjoy the juxtaposition of jiggle shots and blood baths are the obvious audience for High School of the Dead; other viewers should approach it with caution. -Charles Solomon

When reading a synopsis for the series, one is struck by the weirdness of the concept. Junpei, the main character, is allergic to cats. By accident, he breaks the local cat-deity statue at a shrine, cursing him. Suddenly, he can understand what cats are saying, and must do 100 nice things for cats or he will turn into one himself. Being allergic, turning into a cat would kill him.

But that isn't really what the show is about. It is a slice of life anime heavy on the romantic comedy, following Junpei in his quest to become closer to his crush, Mizuno. As in most anime of this genre, complications are abound and more than one girl besides Mizuno falls for Junpei, setting up some very amusing situations. Sure, the concept has been done to death (besides the cats) and these types of anime are a dime a dozen. But that doesn't stop this show from being very, very funny.

Samurai Harem: Complete Collection Samurai Harem: Complete Collection

noreply@blogger.com (Nur) — Fri, 7 Oct 2011 03:43:00 -0700

Samurai Harem,AKA Asu No Yoichi, is a well drawn and lively comedy about a 17-year-old only son of a single samurai sword master father who raised him alone in the mountains away from others,epecially girls. After the father decides the son needs more training than he is capable of giving he sends him to a dojo run by four sisters,the oldest being,of course,17 years of age. There are no parents as they "went on a long journey". Our hero is a bit dense conserning life outside of the mountains and cuts a path of distrbances in the city on his way to the dojo. He is also "completely innocent" regarding girls but seems to get at least one nose bleed per episode...along with at least one sound thrashing at the hands of the oldest sister. He is not a player and this is not a sex romp and there is no,repeat,no fan service or nudity.While all the sisters grow to like him,only one harbors emotional feelings and another,the oldest, seems to be jealous of him whenever he is to close to other girls. He never seems to "get a clue" as he is living by the rules of a samurai, doing things we would probably call,in our world,"gentlemanly" although he seems to have his hands full of breasts or his head up a skirt far more times than one would think was "coincidental", each incident bringing swift reproachment (beatings within an inch of his life) by the oldest sister,regardless how innocent.

Only good if you haven't read the manga. While the characters stay true to themselves in this first season: the storyline is way, way off. A good 60% of it is 'filler' that never happens in the original storyline, which given the amount of manga produced at that time is understandable.. but also laughably pathetic at the same time: especially as it diverges very early on. The ending of this season in particular is a huge downer .. especially if you wanted to see Joker and the circus crew at any point. They don't even appear, and the story goes so far into left feild it's rediculous. The art and animation were good, and as stated above teh characters do stay true to themselves, giving anyone who had read it and just wants to see it animated a nice treat.
