Have you ever heard of Naruto? Of course you have! It's extremely popular, but I can't stand it!! Know why? Because he makes Ninjas look totally stupid with his bright orange outfit and 'sexy jutsu', it's so uncool! For the same reason, I don't like Katanagatari. Whether it be the characters, the plot, the art or anything else, I loathe it all!
Allow me to elaborate: Katanagatari is based in Japan's Edo era where Strategian Togame is tasked with obtaining the '12 Deviant Blades'. However she's too frail to collect them herself and she's already been betrayed by ninjas, so Togame seeks the help of Shichika - a highly trained martial artist - to be her sword.
A deliciously sweet Sunday. I go by the name of Toffeeish and every Sunday I will give you review on something cool and Asian. Mostly anime, but I enjoy manga, games, Cds, food, you name it!!

Steins;Gate
I contemplated not doing a review for this anime because it's so hard to form a review of this, but I'll try! The plot is all based around Rintaro Okabe, who dubs himself as Hououin Kyouma, the mad scientist. He has his own little imaginary world where 'the organisation' rules society and is constantly sending agents after him. He has a 'secret lab' where him and his few friends play along with his conspiracies and play about with their 'phone microwave (name subject to change)'. But convinced that they just sent a banana into the past the whole gang are whisked to the border of imaginary and reality. It's difficult to trust anything that's going on since the main character likes to play pretend. I think that this is a brilliant idea as it means your constantly thinking and questioning what you're watching. But it makes it kind of complicated as well, especially the first episode, I almost didn't want to continue to episode 2 because there was no sense at all in episode 1!! However, I'm happy to report that things pick up a lot from episode 2 onwards. It is still very illogical and confounding, but in a more entertaining way.
