[Anime Review] Kanokon

Kanokon

"Feels too much of ecchi, but good things the story gets better on the 2nd half" -bezoe

Kanokon's story revolves around Kouta Oyamada, a young first-year high school student who moves from the country to the city and thus transfers to Kunpo High School. On his first day at his new school, a beautiful second-year female student named Chizuru Minamoto asks him to meet her alone in the music room. When he arrives, she reveals her that she is in fact a fox deity and from that day on the two hang out together. Nozomu is a first year female student at Kouta's school, she is in fact a wolf deity and in love with Kouta, and a rival of Chizuru for Kouta's affections.

First word... Very Ecchi (if you don't know the meaning of ecchi, then go look at wiki). From the first episode till last one, the ecchiness level never go down even a bit, which is good and bad actually. The good is, I love ecchi stuff, the bad is, too much ecchi actually becomes a distraction for the main plot. And thats what basically happened on the 1st half of the anime.
First 6 episodes I almost though this anime will be around C rating, but after episode 7, it actually gets alot better and continue to be a fun anime to watch until end.
Overall for story wise, its very simple but has a lot of entertaining moment.

The animation level was pretty good but not the best around, the character design a bit generic, but still got some strong personality. Overall for the graphic was ok. Side note: I hate the main guy character thoo.

Action scene was ok but not better than Inukami - thats the 1st thing that popped up in my mind.

OP and ED ost pretty good.

If you a type of person who really care about the story line and don't like ecchi stuff too much, then you can pass on this anime, however, if you like ecchi and can bear to stand 6 episodes of nothingness beside ecchi ( ep 1-6 storyline pretty weak in my opinion ), then I recommend you to watch it.

[Anime Review] DearS

DearS

"Reminds me of Chobits, but with a simpler story" -bezoe

Ikuhara Takeya is a high school student living a normal life. He is not interested in the commotion around a UFO filled with beautiful alien females that crashed on earth a year ago. The aliens, known as DearS, are deciding to take permanent residence on earth. What no one knows is that these aliens are a slave species whose sole purpose is to serve and please their masters. One day, Takeya spots a person shivering behind some bushes. This person, Ren, is one of the DearS, and after being saved by Takeya she chooses him as her master. Takeya, who doesn't know about the master-slave relationship of DearS, tries to learn Ren the normal lifestyle of the people on earth, though he constantly fears that Ren is an evil alien who's trying to brainwash him. But Ren isn't like other DearS. She is in fact malfunctioning and is being tracked down by their leader. Meanwhile, Takeya begins to learn more about DearS, and a mythical DearS relationship called “Gift” begin to develop between them. (animenewsnetwork)

As the synopsis above, it actually sums up the whole episode. The anime was very light for the story wise, but some humour/clumsy scenes actually pretty funny. Plus the teacher character actually pretty "Appealing".
Somehow the story reminds me of chobits (I won't say this is the same as Chobits, it just feels like it when I watch this anime)
Animation wise this anime just ok, characters wise its feel like from early 2000 or late 90's style (atleast that is what I think when I watched it - even though its a 2004 anime I believe)
It feels like they should release a second season because the ending feels too simple. Recommend to watch this anime even though its not perfect.

[Anime Review] Popotan

Popotan

" First half was really boring, but fortunately there were some sightings that makes it a bit enjoyable. The ending conclusion boosted the score by a bit" -bezoe

Sisters Ai, Mai, Mii, and their housekeeper android Mea inhabit in a mysterious house that transports them through time and space. Following leads obtained from dandelions (or "popotan"), the sisters attempt to locate a certain someone believed to hold the answers to their questions. Their peculiar method of transport, however, does not come without its own set of painful drawbacks... (animenewsnetwork.com)

The 1st half didn't explain about what happened in the anime, it just more like a very slow paced anime with no where to go (the storyline I mean). But on the 2nd half it starts to catch up dramaticaly, and it boosted up the score (plus a lot of nude scene).

Animation was pretty standard, graphic was pretty cute, storyline actually pretty simple if you watch it till the end, OP and ED ost pretty fun ~.
Recommend to watch it when you have spare time.

[Anime Review] Kimi Ga Aruji De Shitsuji GaOre De

Kimi Ga Aruji De Shitsuji Ga Ore De (They Are My Noble Master)

"As good as He Is My Master, or actually a bit better" -Bezoe

Due to family troubles, Ren Uesugi and his sister, Mihato, leave their home. They end up moving to the city but find themselves with a lack of money. Somehow they are able to find work in the form of the Kuonji family's mansion, being employed as servants to the three sisters of the Kuonji family: Shinra, Miyu, and Yume. Being a servant also associates Ren with the mansion's additional servants and the Kuonji sisters' friends.

The main plot is almost the same with He Is My Master (I dunno which anime came 1st because I'm too lazy to check), and I will say this one is a little better. The story is a bit touchy, the relation between servant and master really great and I really hope there is a second season. I really wish the series is longer than 13 eps.

Character design actually I love the style, especially Miyu.. er.. perfect loli type? Haha. Beside that, other characters design also very good, like the servant of the white hair chick that I can't remember the name right now.


Bottom line :for a people who loves/don't mind with: Incest theme, Sister-Bro complex, Sister-Sister complex, then this anime is highly recommended.

Oh by the way, forgot to mention, this anime use a lot of reference from other anime and turned it into a parody, which is quite hilarious.

[Anime Review] He Is My Master

He Is My Master

"Love it very much!" -Bezoe

Yoshitaka Nakabayashi, a 14-year-old millionaire who got this huge inheritance after his parents died in an accident, found himself needed to be taken care of and tried to hire live-in maids to do the job. Two runaway girls, Izumi Sawatari and her younger sister Mitsuki, stumped into Nakabayashi's mansion and got hired by Yoshitaka immediately, for Yoshitaka is not only a rich boy but also a pervert with uniform fetishes, who wants to be addressed as goshujin-sama (master). Having nowhere else to settle down along with Mitsuki's pet alligator Pochi, Izumi accepted the job reluctantly.

A very hilarious anime to start with, even though the story looks familiar with other same type anime, but this one very good. The 12 episode fills with a tons of comedy, ecchi and fun. I love this anime so much, and also the girls are super cute =). Unfortunately I don't like the "mascot" too much, I don't think it is cute enough compare to other Harem type anime. Yes it is highly recommended Harem anime.

[Anime Review] Amaenaideyo Katsu

Amaenaideyo Katsu

"Have the same level of excitement as the 1st season" -Bezoe

Amaenaideyo Katsu is the 2nd season of the Amaenaideyo series, it is still continuation of the journey Ikko of surpassing his uncontrolable power. Makes thing worst, theres one new girl that keep attempting to awaken Ikko's power. The new girl named Kazuki Kazusano is from a "rivalry" temple. But Kazuki always try to blend in with the other six girl in order to get Ikko. This anime getting more interesting because Kazuki pretty wild~.

Overall the anime feel the same as the 1st season, have the same level of ecchi but with one new hot girl. The ending of the 2nd season still open for a possible 3rd season, and yes I really looking foward if there is a 3rd season

[Anime Review] Amaenaideyo

Amaenaideyo

"A Harem anime that contains a lot of Boing boing and Pansu everywhere =D~" Bezoe

Hatanaka Ikko, a 16 year old boy, is a first year trainee at the Saienji Buddhist Temple. He was sent there by his parents to be trained by his grandmother, the Saienji Priestess. At the temple he finds himself surrounded by beautiful female priestesses-in-training. Upon seeing a girl naked, Ikko has the ability to turn into a super-monk, performing massive exorcisms for the good of the temple.

Basically its a journey of Ikko becoming a better monk without a provoke from the girls. Because for now Ikko is a helpless monk with a barely good ability of exorcism if he see no naked women. He need to learn how to exorcist better without that... But since the super monk power is very useful during certain times, the girls needs to help Ikko unleash the power.

The whole general story of this anime actually is very tipical plot that we can see on most ghost-exorcism anime, but fortunately the execution of the story and also the comedy is pretty refreshing (plus a lot of skin showing which make me give him a plus ). Hey its a Harem anime so showing a lot of skin is very appropriate.. right? Unfortunately I still consider there is a downside of this anime, which is the girls it self, it is not as cute as compare to other Harem anime I've ever watch. But it is still a super enjoyable anime to watch.
