Before I had a chance to start on the Spring Season of anime, the Summer season is nearing its end. So I did what any good fan would do, and wasted this weekend catching up on new episodes of anime I didn’t actually care to see.

Mawaru Penguindrum

I think this show is weird; but the girls are somewhat cute and the animation is good. I don’t quite get it, but the story’s got some pumped-up kicks to it and I’m high on caffeine, so I guess I’ll keep watching.

Mayo-Chiki

I don’t understand this anime. Subaru does not look nor act like a man. Why is everyone but the main character fooled? This harem series needs to figure itself out.

Blood-C

Whatever happened to the Chiropterans? Why is this new Saya fighting monsters that do not have anything in common with the enemies of previous renditions of this series save the consumption of humans? So many questions, and so few answers. I like Mizuki Nana and bloodletting, but those can only hold my interest for so long before I move onto bigger grander things.

Natsume Yuujinchou San

Ugh. If they’re not going to focus on the drama and beautiful backdrops that I’ve come to expect from Natsume Yuujinchou, then at the very least make Natsume Takashi less of a wimp. That kid is getting his ass kicked every episode for seemingly no reason. If he’s not conscious at the end of the episode to make some heartfelt statement about coexistence that makes everyone lost in thought, then what reason is there to have the show named after him? There’s only two course of action left for this show: a) Natsume needs to bang one of the females in the show, or b) Natsume needs to be banged by one of the males in the show. At this point, I’m ready to see just about anyone’s cherry popped.

Carnival Phantasm

The opening is more hilarious than the entirety of this anime.

Kamisama no Memochou

The fridge full of Dr.Pepper is very reminiscent of my personal reality. That may be the only reason this series caught my interest for more than one hour.

No.6

The homosexual undertone makes me second-guess myself every episode. I think I like this series more than I let on.

The iDOLM@STER

… It’s okay. But nothing amazing.

Sacred Seven

There’s only two reasons why I watch this: Sunrise and Girls. I think the script and directing could be better. Oh, and the main character’s costume leaves much to be desired.

Ro-Kyu-Bu

There’s a second season already green-lit for this anime. Why?

So there you have it. Disappointment after disappointment, and my patience is wearing thin. I will go back to reading manga.
