Anime of the Day Challenge Review

Wow... you have no idea how much I did enjoy this. I love anime... and this makes me wanna keep on doing random anime at random times.

There's possibly thousands and thousands of anime now... and there will continue to be more through out the years ahead.

Sure, anime might die down someday but I really hope it doesn't for a long time.

This challenge taught me that there are good ones and really weird ones and bad ones...

I only just seen the worst one... and believe me... that was not something I will be watching again xD

Anime will always be something that I will enjoy and it's part of my life now...

So... thank you for reading these challenges...

I will have a special announcement coming tomorrow so keep an eye out on that.

Anime of the Day 30: Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion

I've tried watching this anime once but never completed... looks like I'll give it another go.

Now... it's time share more info about this anime.

Here we go: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_Geass

https://myanimelist.net/anime/1575/Code_Geass__Hangyaku_no_Lelouch

Now... time to rewatch the first episode.

What I Think of It?
Don't you wish you could have power to change the world? Yep... this is what this anime is all about. He was able to get a power to control a nation that ruled over Japan. Their freedom lost and only he can do something about it. I think I will actually finish this anime this time.

Would I Watch More?
Yes, I will be watching more.

Anime of the Day 29: Nyanko Days

Cute.... but I wonder...

Here's more info about the anime: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nyanko_Days

https://myanimelist.net/anime/34148/Nyanko_Days

https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=18832

Now... on with the show.

What I Think of It?
I don't know if I am freaked out or in awe with the kittens that look like... humans... what the heck? But this anime is cute either way... even though it is short...

Would I Watch More?
Yes, I will watch more.

Anime of the Day 28: Samurai Jam-Bakumatsu Rock

Yea.... Samurai and rock music... let's see how this goes.

Here's more info about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bakumatsu_Rock

https://myanimelist.net/anime/23037/Bakumatsu_Rock

https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=15992

Now... on with the watching of this show.

What I Think of it?
Oh... I remember this now... It's not really my favorite music anime... because it's weird... to have samurai and music for me xD I did enjoy it a little bit back when it was first released but now... not so much.

Would I Watch More?
Nope.

Anime of the Day 27: Your Lie in April

This anime is not only my favorite but the saddest anime ever...

Before I do my review... let's share more information of this anime.

Here's the info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Your_Lie_in_April

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3895150/

https://myanimelist.net/anime/23273/Shigatsu_wa_Kimi_no_Uso

Now.... let's talk about this anime.

What I Think of It?
This anime hits you hard with depression and stuff... I mean... you really have to watch it all to realized why it's called "Your lie in April". It's about a violinist and a boy who used to be a pianist... There's a story on why he quit... and well... the girl tried her best to get the boy back into playing the piano. All of this anime is really beautiful but it's really sad... I can't imagine any other anime with this unique story... but there are many other sad anime out there... this one is just one that breaks your heart. I really do recommend you to watch it for the story.

Anime of the Day 26: Fruits Basket

Already seen this anime but full review will come at the end.

Mind you... this anime is cute. But there's a 2001 and 2019 version... We will be talking about both of them.

Here's more info about the anime: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fruits_Basket

https://myanimelist.net/anime/120/Fruits_Basket

Now... here's my review of this anime.

What I Think of It?
There are two versions of this anime... the 2001 failed at following the storyline all the way... so let's talk about the 2019 version... which is perfect in every way... which is why I had gotten a shirt of this anime for myself. I love how the anime (and manga) follow a story and each episode depended on the character... the girl who is the main character just lost her mom and decided to live on her own because she didn't want to burden her grandfather and be hated by her other family... yea... that's how life was for her. Then she met Yuki... and from there... she found out they were cursed being some type of zodiac animal from the Chinese Zodiac... and well... the girl just learns more and slowly opens up about her life... I mean... this anime is NOT about falling in love with a boy... it's about emotions and how life can be hard... it points out suicide, depression, and everything that comes with life. I do recommend this anime and can't wait for the second season of the new anime because it's a LOT better than the 2001 version... Also, I want to read the manga sometime because I think it would be good too... especially with how this story hits at all the points of life.

Anime of the Day 25: Yamada-kun and the Seven Witches

We are almost done with the challenge.

Now this is a first time for me to watch this anime. I have a feeling that it will be a lot of girls up to no good...

Here's more info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yamada-kun_and_the_Seven_Witches

https://myanimelist.net/anime/28677/Yamada-kun_to_7-nin_no_Majo_TV

Now... let's see how this is.

What I Think of It?
An anime about witches... but not just any witch... the main character has the power to switch bodies with any girl or boy... just by kissing... so yea... I am watching more of this anime.

Would I Watch More?
Yes, I will!

Anime of the Day 24: Mushi-Shi

I've seen some of this anime and it's got a good story.

If you want a good anime with a good story for each episode... this one is your best bet.

Here's more info about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mushishi

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0807832/

https://myanimelist.net/anime/457/Mushishi

Now... time to watch this anime.

What I Think of It?
The first episode is about a boy... and well... you should watch it all... like I said, each episode is about something different. Mushishi are ghost like creatures that roam around. They are mostly insects and reptiles. But they can take on human form too.... it's a good show... and I think I will watch it again just because I forgot the story of it.


Would I Watch More?
Yes, I will be watching more.

Anime of the Day 23: Tokyo Ravens

This anime is gonna be interesting... I hope.

Here's more info about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tokyo_Ravens

https://myanimelist.net/anime/16011/Tokyo_Ravens

Now... time to watch it.

What I Think of It?
I think this anime is going to be interesting to watch. I will be adding this to my watch list for sure. Apparently, it's about magic... and you know me... I love anime about magic a whole lot.

Would I Watch More?
Yes, I will watching more of this anime.

Anime of the Day 22: Rainy Cocoa

Oh, boy... an anime about boys... and it's rainy here... what a perfect match.

Here we go... with more information of this anime: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainy_Cocoa

https://myanimelist.net/anime/28981/Ame-iro_Cocoa

Now... I will watch this anime.

What I Think of It?
Each episode is short... and simple... that's about the gist of what this anime is all about... and boys... yep... boys who work in cafes... 

Would I Watch More?
Maybe.

Anime of the Day 21: Durarara!!

Another anime that I got on my to watch list.

Believe me... I never got to watch this anime.

Here's more info about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durarara!!

https://myanimelist.net/anime/6746/Durarara

Now... time to see what's this anime is all about.

What I Think of It?
 This anime looks like it's gonna be interesting. This guy first started school in Tokyo and met his best friend there. His best friend told him who to avoid... and well... I think it might be a good anime so far... I will be watching this more.

Would I Watch More?
Yep... I do want to watch more.

Anime of the Day 20: Garo: Vanishing Line

Interesting title...

This anime can go either way... first time watching it.

Here's more info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garo:_Vanishing_Line

https://myanimelist.net/anime/36144/Garo__Vanishing_Line

Now... time to watch this.

What I Think of It?
 Huh... very interesting indeed... I guess it starts out with this girl looking for something then this creature tried to get her... or rather eat her. :v Typical anime? Anyway, I really did enjoy watching this anime... still not something that would become my favorite.

Would I Watch More?
Yes, I would be watching more.

Anime of the Day 19: Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood

This is slightly different than the original... but you should watch both for the different ideas.

I've watched this anime but always quit before finishing... so maybe this will be my chance.

Here's more info about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fullmetal_Alchemist:_Brotherhood

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1355642/

https://myanimelist.net/anime/5114/Fullmetal_Alchemist__Brotherhood

Now... let's watch this again... and see if I can stand it.

What I Think of It?
I didn't realize there are many parts... O_O But this is a story of two brothers who wanted to bring their mother back... but with alchemist... there's a price for everything. The two brothers lost everything... but are able to become the most powerful alchemist there are. I think this is a good story... but again, you have to watch both shows... while this one follows the manga more closely... which again you have to watch too.

Will I Watch More?
Yes, I will... and try to finish all five parts.

Anime of the Day 18: Black Lagoon

I heard of this anime but I never watched it. It really shows how anime is... and how it used to be.

Here's more info about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Lagoon

https://myanimelist.net/anime/889/Black_Lagoon

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0962826/

Now let's see how this anime goes.

What I Think of It?
 This anime is wow... it's about this guy who is being kidnapped only to realized the whole world is after him. This shows a group of some type of people who does jobs to get money... and well... not sure about the rest. I think it's a good anime... not my favorite... but I do want to watch more.

Would I Watch More?
 Yes, I will be watching more of this anime.

Anime of the Day 17: Psycho-Pass

Seems like I'm watching another anime on my to-watch list.

So... let's get that information so you all can know what this is about.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psycho-Pass

https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=14195

Now let's see what this anime is like.

What I think of It?
This anime is really awesome. I am not sure why I missed out when this anime released but... I do like this anime's story... Psycho-Pass basically measures how criminally you are... if you are at the level of causing harm.. you will... die. There's no prison time for you either way... and well, it's interesting to see how this works out. The main character is the girl... so far... and she doesn't like the idea that you have to die if you are the type of criminal that can cause harm... even harming yourself can cause you to die! What an intense anime! That's why I like it... because I am curious what will happen next. 

Would I Watch More?
Yes, I will be watching more!

Anime of the Day 16: Bleach

A wonderful anime...

I know this is a good anime because I've watched the first 3 seasons.

Here's more info about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bleach_%28TV_series%29

https://www.anime-planet.com/anime/bleach

Here's my review.

What I Think of It?
This anime... is beyond great. It all starts with Ichigo who could see spirits and well... fought a lot of people. Then he meets Rukia who is part of this group that kills demons and many other types of evil souls... I will be watching more of this anime someday and hope that you would watch it too. It's really a great anime.

Anime of the Day 15: One Punch Man

This anime is something you have to watch.

My suggestion is to watch only the first season of this anime. The second one... is a bit slow. Look below for my review after I share some more info about this anime.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-Punch_Man

https://www.anime-planet.com/anime/one-punch-man

Now... here's my review.

What I Think of It?
The first season was really awesome. You were there for each fight Saitama went through. Yes, the main character is named Saitama and he... really done a lot to be come this strong person that's known as One Punch Man. Each fight was always something to be expected... then the second season came which was really slow... not sure what it was not like the first season... so please watch the first one before you get into the second one. I hope they do continue this anime because it's really fun to watch what happens next no matter what. 

Anime of the Day 14: Pita-Ten

This is a cute anime xD

I've read the manga of this series and not sure if I ever did completed this show... if not... well, it's gonna be on my list.

More info here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pita-Ten

https://www.anime-planet.com/anime/pita-ten

Now... let's see how cute this anime is.

What I Think of It?
This anime seems like it's for kids but it's really too cute xD I also think it's a weird anime too... It's about a little boy who lost his mom and now this angel seems to came to change his life around... and well... yea... it's just like that.

Would I Watch More?
Yea... I think I will watch more of this anime and stuff xD

Anime of the Day 13: Fairy Tail

This anime is very long and I'm not even started it yet?!

I think I will add this anime to my list to watch.

Here's more info about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairy_Tail

https://www.anime-planet.com/anime/fairy-tail

Now... let's review the first episode.

What I Think of It?
I think this anime will be something I'll enjoy for many episodes ahead... it looks fun even just for the first episode which I remembered that I tried watching it before... whoa... deja vu much? 

Would I Watch More?
 Yes, I will be watching more of this anime.

Anime of the Day 12: Baccano!

An anime that I really wanted to watch... looks like I can finally watch it.

Looks like it's gonna be an interesting anime...

Here's more info about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baccano!

https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=7492

https://www.anime-planet.com/anime/baccano

Now... let's see how this is.

What I Think of It?
It's actually something that is good... I really enjoyed the whole thing... it seems mysterious right now but that's what I like about this anime.. All the answers will come as you watch more of this anime.

Will I Watch More?
Yes, I will be watching more.

Anime of the Day 11: Akagi

This is my first time watching this anime...

So here's more info about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akagi_%28manga%29#Anime

https://www.anime-planet.com/anime/akagi

Now I shall watch this and see if I like this style of anime.

What I Think of It?
Still not even sure if I would like this... but the first episode was slow so that explains that. I think it's interesting even though it is slow...


Would I Watch More?
I may continue this one... just to see how it goes... then I will decide then whether or not if I like it.

Anime of the Day 10: Kengan Ashura

A Netflix original anime... First time watching this one...

I think this is something like a fighting anime... not sure until I watch it.

Here's more info about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kengan_Ashura

https://www.anime-planet.com/anime/kengan-ashura

Now... let's watch the first episode.

What I Think of It?
Normally... I don't like fighting anime... but this one... seems different for me... it's about this guy who just appeared out of nowhere and he's a strong fighter.... I mean really super strong... no... not like One Punch Man... but completely different kind of strong. I may actually like this one because it seems to have a story there somewhere...

Will I Watch More?
I will be watching more of this anime.

Anime of the Day 9: Mars of Destruction

Heard this one was horrible... well, just have to watch and see...

Now... here's more info about it: https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=5907

https://www.anime-planet.com/anime/mars-of-destruction

Now... let's see if people are right that this anime is horrible...

What I Think of It?
Ok... from what I did found... wtf was that?! I never seen something this horrible in my life... wait... yes... I have. This reminds me of a mockry of those sci fi movies back in the 50's and so forth... really... wtf was that?

Will I Watch More?
My answer is simple... nope.

Anime of the Day 8: ZOMBIE LAND SAGA

This one... I had on my list to watch and already seen the first episode...

But I will do a review anyways...

This anime is about zombies... and singing...

More info here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zombie_Land_Saga

https://www.anime-planet.com/anime/zombieland-saga

Now... since I already watched the first episode... I will be rewatching it and tell you what I think of it.

What I Think of It?
This anime may have you think... oh, it's a girl... then the opening just starts off with heavy metal... you just have to watch it to see it xD Of course, the best part... is zombie girls... so you just have to figure that part out later on... It's a musical so you would have to stand it to understand it.

Will I Watch More?
Already on my to watch list xD

Anime of the Day 7: Science Ninja Team Gatchaman

Or Gatchaman if you wish to find this yourself.

I had heard this anime a lot of times... this is really an old anime... made in 1070's... so it would be interesting to see how the art style changed. There is a newer adaption but it's called Gatchaman Crowds... I did try to watch this and it's really... interesting. Now this is my first time to watch Gatchaman so it will be interesting to see how I would like it.

But first... more info here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_Ninja_Team_Gatchaman#Adaptations

https://myanimelist.net/anime/2389/Kagaku_Ninja-tai_Gatchaman

Now I will watch and see how this anime is like back in the 1970's....

What I Think of It?
You can really tell this is an old anime... but it's not that bad... I couldn't help but laugh at some of the actions and the opening and ending songs xD You just never know what you might see while watching one of these older anime. This one is about these heroes who go and save the world from evil... it really just goes right into it too...

Would I Watch More? 
I think I will but there's over 100 episodes... so yea... might take a while.

Anime of the Day 6: Casshern Sins

I already seen this anime... it's really good if you want something different.

Please ignore the part 2... this anime is all in one series... 24 episodes in all.

Here's more info about this anime: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casshern_Sins

https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=9702

https://www.anime-planet.com/anime/casshern-sins

Since I already seen this anime... I will only tell you what I think of it.

What I Think of It?
This anime is intense... just so you know. It's about a world where humanity is almost extinct and robots rule the world. These robots are rusting and breaking so they think devouring Casshern would cure them in some way... which is strange in a sense. I forgot if Casshern is human or robot or both... but he lost his memory on why he's being chased down by these robots. The whole anime is really dark... and touches on emotions and memories. I do recommend this to anybody who likes robots and the end of the world type of thing. All in all... this was a good anime and I really enjoyed it.

Anime of the Day 5: Ankoku Shinwa

Or... The Dark Myth... yea... English does kind of sound weird too...

Here's the picture of the anime:

This anime is an OAV... please don't ask me what OAV means xD Anyway, it is an anime with only one episode or special episode... hint why some mainstream anime have OAVs... so yea...

Alright, I will share more info about the anime here: https://www.anime-planet.com/anime/the-dark-myth

https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=573

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daijiro_Morohoshi

Now... I will watch this and see what it's all about.

What I Think of It?
This is the most strangest anime I ever watched. It's about legends and more... and well... you just have to watch it yourself if you can. I didn't really like this anime that well so... yea... most likely, I may not be watching the rest of the anime... which has one more episode.


Would I Watch More?
Nope... not gonna watch this anymore.

Anime of the Day 4: The Super Dimension Fortress Macross

Or... Macross just like it says in the picture below.

I've heard of this anime when I was younger... but I never got to watch it at all. I know it's about space... and mecha... that's about it. I hope this will make me want to watch it... and of course, add to my list. Only way to find out... the first episode.

But first, here's more information about this anime: https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=355

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Dimension_Fortress_Macross

https://myanimelist.net/anime/1088/Macross

Now... we can watch this first episode.

What I Think of It?
This anime may be old but it's actually cool to watch it... so... you guessed it... I like this anime. It's about this battleship that fell from space... possibly aliens... and it sparked a way... then... years later, after the ship lay in ruins... humans decided to steal the technology and rebuilt it... which caused aliens to come into the airspace and... you guessed it... a war. It's straight up mecha after you seen the first episode.

Would I Watch More?
I am going to be watching more of this anime... I may not like a lot of mecha anime but this one is actually good... besides, Macross used to be popular back in the day... also... the theme song may get stuck in your head after a while xD

Anime of the Day 3: Saki

I think I may know what this anime is about but just have to watch it and see first...

Here's more info about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saki_%28manga%29#Anime

https://www.anime-planet.com/anime/saki

https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=10527

Now... let's see what's anime is all about.

What I Think of It?
This is about a game of Mahjong. It does go all out in some parts... but that's anime for you. For every game won... a huge gasp... wow... But again... that's anime for you. I really enjoy watching this and hope to continue this anime soon.

Would I Watch More?
I just said it... but yea, I would like to continue this.

Anime of the Day 2: Le Chevalier D'Eon

This anime seems like it's a mystery and paranormal type. From what I could read, it's about a boy named D'Eon looking for the murderer of his sister, Lia.... and well, things turned around for him when his sister's soul possessed him. Ain't that anime enough?

More information here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Le_Chevalier_D'Eon

https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=6536

https://myanimelist.net/anime/1013/Le_Chevalier_DEon

Alright, now I will watch this anime... but this version, I'm afraid is dubbed... so it would sound kind of weird... just saying.

What I Think of It?
Even though the episode I watched was in dubbed, it was actually interesting to watch. I think I had watched the first episode before but don't recalled when or where xD The story is actually a good story to watch... I would recommend it... but again, I rather watch the sub version.


Will I Watch More?
That is a yes... I would like to watch more of this anime.
 

Anime of the Day 1: Double Circle

This anime is called Double Circle. It only has 6 episodes so this is what you would called ONA? Correct me if I am wrong.

This is actually the first time I've heard of this anime title.

Here's some more information about this anime: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_Circle_%28web_series%29

Also, I do noticed that this an original web series so it's not well known, I guess... but at least these two have more info about it: https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=15744

https://www.anime-planet.com/anime/double-circle

Now I will be watching the first episode and will let you all know what I think of it.

What I Think of It?
Interesting... I think this anime is short but it's a good episode. Apparently, from what I read... everybody that lived in this one community have these powers that turn them into renewable energy. It shows what they turned into... so... something along the lines of a magical girl but as mecha suits? Who knows... it's a good anime either way but I felt things are a bit rushed just by this first episode.

Will I Watch More?
I am not going to watch more of this... even if it was a good show to watch xD I just don't like the idea of being rushed for a show like this.
