Uta no ☆ Prince-sama♪: Maji Love 1000%

Posted on January 13, 2017 5:01 am by Offkorn Comment

Haruka Nanami wishes to become a composer, and the first stop on her journey is the prestigious Saotome Academy boarding school for the musically inclined. There she meets six aspiring idols who each take an interest in her.

An Anime-original interpretation of a long-running series of ‘love adventure’ games. The show combines melodrama and wacky comedy segments with a small touch of romance. It’s not really about idols or making music until nearly the very end, focusing instead on the various characters’ personalities and personal issues.

As a studious, slightly boring girl, Cocona doesn’t have any particular direction or goals in life. One morning that all changes when she encounters the wild, impulsive Papika and finds herself suddenly tossed into a bizarre dream dimension.

Bouncing as it does between settings and genres, this is a difficult series to pin down. I suppose at its core you could call it an embellished magical girl family drama. The comedy is a mix of reaction and situational while the ecchi aspects do not often have any particular attention drawn to them.

Natsume Yuujinchou: Go

Posted on January 10, 2017 1:51 pm by Offkorn Comment

Natsume’s everyday life continues as he meets new youkai of all kinds, from malicious to benevolent to mischievous.

A mostly episodic addition to the Natsume franchise which can serve as an entry point for new viewers. In comparison to the previous season, there’s less direct conflict here with nearly all the stories featuring longing of some form.

To Be Hero

Posted on January 8, 2017 3:31 pm by Offkorn Comment

After being sucked into the toilet one night, the playboy toilet-seat designer protagonist is granted super powers and instructed to protect the world from an approaching alien invasion. Powers which unfortunately make him unrecognizable to his daughter and twist any references he tries to make to his normal life.

A random comedy heavy with toilet humor. Remarkably varied toilet humor peppered with fast-talking flashbacks that concludes with a large number of action scenes.

biohazard: DAMNATION

Posted on January 7, 2017 2:10 pm by Offkorn Comment

Following the events of Biohazard: Degeneration, Leon is investigating rumors of monster sightings in eastern Europe. There he becomes entangled in a civil war in which the rebel fighters have begun using bio-organic weapons to even the playing field against the government’s military superiority.

Unlike the prequel which doesn’t rely on any detailed references to the games, this one expects you to know what happened in the fourth Biohazard game. It mixes monster-horror action with a bit of war drama.

biohazard: DEGENERATION

Posted on January 6, 2017 2:04 pm by Offkorn Comment

Seven years after the events of the first two Biohazard games, Claire Redfield ends up trapped in the middle of another T-virus outbreak. Leon S. Kennedy is tasked with the job of rescuing her and some other survivors, and the two of them stumble upon another conspiracy after getting caught up in a terrorist plot.

A full-CG action/horror movie. If you’ve ever played a zombie-themed corridor shooter, well this is basically that in movie form capped off by an elaborate boss battle.

Shortly after starting his first year at an elite cram school, Daisuke Higashida is forced to find a part-time job in order to pay for his phone bill and train pass after his father’s business goes bankrupt. Worse, the only place close enough turns out to be a family restaurant full of eccentrics.

A gag comedy set in a restaurant that eventually transforms into a multi-couple romantic comedy, though it stays focused on reaction-shots throughout. Each character has their own gimmick (airhead, sadist, slacker, doormat, tomboy, spooky, etc.) with the protagonist usually playing the role of straight man.

Soushin Shoujo Matoi

Posted on January 5, 2017 7:57 am by Offkorn Comment

Yuma works as a shrine maiden, hoping to one day awaken special powers like her ancestors had. Her friend Matoi on the other hand just wants to live a normal everyday life, a desire that ends up further away than ever after she accidentally gains the power to merge with a god.

A comedy with periodic bursts of action and a small streak of drama. What most stands out about it is the way Yuma and Matoi seem to be drawn/animated differently than the other characters.

One Monday morning the protagonist has a fateful encounter, ending up injured by a schoolgirl’s large breasts. The girl’s name is Ai and the two end up spending each Monday morning together on the train.

Shot from the perspective of an unnamed salaryman, the show consists of everyday segments of his life from week to week. Sometimes it features the train ride with Ai, sometimes it features his job, and sometimes it features places he goes to try to ease his job-related stress.

Mahou Shoujo Nante Mou Ii Desu kara. Second Season

Posted on January 2, 2017 1:45 pm by Offkorn Comment

Yuzuka’s everyday life goes on as she continues to try to find any use at all for the magical powers she’s been given, while Mafuyu is happy just to have another magical girl to talk to.

A daily life comedy with reaction-based and slapstick humor. As a result of Mafuyu and Daiya’s larger presence it ends up having more of an ensemble approach than the first season.
