Elfen Lied

Sorry this review isn't very good... I really didn't get my own thoughts.... And I've been busy.... So apologies!

This series is hard.... Not that I didn't like it.... But to explain why I like is difficult.....
After watching episode one I almost stopped watching it completely! It's full of blood and nudity!!
The opening scene consists of a lady, who is chained up with nothing but a helmet on her head! After escaping her chains, she starts pulling the guards apart - limb from limb - with her telekinetic powers! Through out the lab guards try to stop her, but she just pulls of their heads, arms and legs.... And those sound effects! The crunching bones the squelching blood.... they made my skin-crawl! Then she, Lucy, got shot and fell in to the ocean and gets washed up at a beach with Kouta and his cousin, Mayu. It's so ecchi!!
But after the shocking first episode, it becomes highly entertaining! Nyuu starts living with Kouta and Mayu, then they pick up the little runaway girl, and they are all living happily! It's so cute! Nyuu is so adorable, a bit freaky at times... but adorable! But her character has much more depth, her split personality Lucy and her connection to Kouta has yet to be thoroughly explained, and I'm looking forward to it!!

Kuro Shitsuji (Black Butler)

I've been meaning to watch this anime for AGES!!! Loads of my friends have watched it, and everyone of them loved it. Well I can't blame them. It is a good anime!!
It covers a whole range of genres making it hard to pinpoint specific pros and cons, but it still has a fairly distinguished plot. Although the opening scene is very strange and confusing, it does explain itself as the anime moves on. It's based in England, which makes a change because instead of referencing strange sounding Japanese culture and traditions, it clearly portrays England in the Victorian times. It is very accurate as well, and includes lots of tea and cakes and all the cakes are clearly named with a picture of them (of course).
Ciel Phantomhive, a young boy who found himself as head of his family after his house burnt down with his parents still inside. Now he's an Earl with two 'jobs': head of the Phantomhive toy company and 'guard dog' for Queen Victoria. However, he does not do this alone, he gets Sebastian -the 'Black Butler'- to do all the hard work. Sebastian is everything you could ever ask for in a butler. He cooks, he cleans, he prepares his masters schedule, and of course he fights like a ninja! No flaws appear in Sebastian' duties, he really is "one hell of a Butler". Or you can just call him Ciel's personal Demon.

Ouran High School Host Club (Live-Action)

Once I heard that they were going to release a live-action of OHSHC I got quite excited! I already have the manga and the anime, both of which I thoroughly enjoyed. So, now I also have the live-action to enjoy!!
The plot is the same as in the manga and anime. But it's not boring because having real people give it a entirely different feel. It's actually rather refreshing.
Basically, Ouran high school is one of a few elite schools in Japan. But 6 good-looking boys get bored with to much free time, so they make a host club to entertain the also bored lady's. But when Haruhi, the poor scholarship student, breaks an 8 million yen vase she's forced to pay with her body. So, against the lady's knowledge Haruhi cross-dresses and performs host activities. The whole anime is about all the trouble the host club causes Haruhi.

Pink Lady

This about a Korean manga, not apples.

Well, I call it a manga, but it's not really. It's called a webtoon (thank wiki for that!), so not only is it in full colour, it's not really manga art-style. It's not westernised enough to bee called a comic, but it's definitely unlike any manga I've read.
The plot is relatively unique aswell! Winter meets David at collage; David and Winter are actually childhood friends; David and Winter love each other and fight all the challenges they encounter together! Okay, I admit, I've read plenty of Romances where that happens, but this one really stands out! For a start, it's not just set in a normal high school, it's very obviously set in an art school. Now that probably sounds rather insignificant, but it actually changes the whole manga because everything has that artistic feel behind it. Everything just works because they're in art school!

Perfect Blue

I hope you appreciate how much effort I put in for you guys! I spent HOURS filling in 'labels' on ALL of my reviews! Just so that you can chose what reviews to look at. Be it reviews with a high rating, Korean reviews or romance reviews just please use the label feature by clicking on one of the categories under the review! I even found out the directors and companies and stuff for ALL my articles!!

Perfect Blue is an animated movie. I was sort of craving one, so my trusty google lead me towards this blog, which was really good. I recommend you take a quick look at it! So Tim Maughan lead me towards Perfect Blue as a psychotic film with a shocking ending. Well all kinds of psychotic fantasies and warped realities were portrayed through out the film. But, shocking ending? I'll come back to that one.
The film tells the tale of little Mima Kirigoe who loved being a member of the fantasy Japanese pop idol group 'CHAM!'. However, with CHAM! not even making it into the top 100, her manager pressures her into becoming a full-time actress. Some of her fans find this very displeasing, especially Me-Mania who was always watching over Mima. As her job as an actress gets greater, so does her fear. Her first main acting part is being raped at a strip club. This is NOT a film for kids.
