For Naruto, I don't really have a favorite, because all of its OPs and EDs are awesome.

For Naruto, I liked this one.

I found an old Shonen Jump comic.

Shonen Jump has some alright stuff, though not a fan of Bleach, Naruto, and some other series.

I'm just not a fan of most shonens. (the anime type not Shonen Jump) They tend to have lack luster stories, and that's what I'm really watching an anime for, not the over-exaggerated fight scenes that are bound to occur in a shonen, either that or they'll have a good story at first and then when it get later into the anime it just starts going down a very steep hill in that department. So as you can gather from that, I'm not really a fan of Shonen Jump.

Best Shonen Jump series is Hunter X Hunter~

YAY! I've finally found a way to play Japanese games that require a Japanese locale on my old computer which is Windows XP. (The issues are that I can't change my locale, or use applocale [a program by microsoft used to run programs with a certain locale instead of your default] to emulate a Japanese locale without having the Japanese language pack installed, and I don't have the CD for my operating system anymore to put it on my computer.) So now I can finally stop being restricted as to what visual novels I can read on this computer due to this issue. Also that was a problem because I only have access to one of my computers at a time, so if I was reading a visual novel that requires a Japanese locale, (which I am currently) I'd have to read it on my better computer that can use applocale, when I have to use this crappy computer I couldn't continue reading even if I really wanted to continue reading, but now I can.

Well disregard all of that happiness and joy from earlier, it didn't work and I'm now resorting to drastic measures to get this crap to work, wish me luck. (by drastic measures I mean a complete re-installation of Windows, kinda needed to happen anyway, as I have some corrupted OS files on this computer.)

It's that time of year again when the pools are filled with kids and the sun is trying to kill you being as hot as it can be. Well, at least above the equator.

With that also comes a new season of anime to watch! Might I add, a list I'm looking more forward to then seasons previously.

Here's the chart.

For some of the stuff I plan to check out -

Inu to Hasami wa Tsukaiyou - Gonzo sure can knock some stuff out of the ballpark sometimes, so it wouldn't hurt me to at least try out this series. The premise is nothing special, but I shall check it out none the less. The director also seems to be a complete nobody who has done nothing previous before this upcoming work, so I want to at least give him a chance as well.

Danganronpa - The Animation - Some people I know have been going nuts over this series on the forums, so I'm curious as to see what all the the talk is about. It's an interesting premise to say the least, and the director already has a good track record as he's directed Carnival Phantasm and Astro Fighter Sunred, so I can expect to at least get a good laugh out of the series.

Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya - Honestly, I don't expect this to be very good. Then why am I watching it? Well, it's due to my love for the Fate series and that's pretty much the only reason I'm watching it. Here's hoping that the show surprises me and that it's actually decent.

Blood Lad - Brains Base hasn't disappointed me yet!

Watamote! - Really enjoy the manga, so I want to see if the anime adaptation of the show is handled well. I'm confident that it will, so I expect it's going to be funny if it's like the manga counterpart.

Silver Spoon - Same creator who did Fullmetal Alchemist. Sold.


but you know what? All of these shows are irrelevant. Sure, some of them seem pretty good and I have an interest towards them, but they all fail in comparison to one show for me which is the one that's making me excited for this season.

I present to you all, Monogatari Season Two!

So with all the shows I plan to watch out of the way, what are you going to watch or look forward to? Or maybe you're not watching anything this season? Discuss away.

Well, it is summer, and now I have much more time to watch anime, but sadly all the anime I've been watching is making me play less video games.

I am excited that Naruto is getting back to the regular schedule and stopping the fillers for a bit.

I always feel weird around my friends because I honestly just don't like Anime very much. I tried getting into it, and I get why a lot of people really do like it, but I just never find myself very entertained by it. The closest I've gotten was in the action scenes of Sword Art Online, just because the action is f*cking beautiful, the music is fantastic and the dialogue and voice acting is really packed with emotion, but then the show goes back to bleh for me. It's sort of metaphorical for an actual mediocre in-game if you think about it, you grind through all of the normal enemies in a dungeon, or in this case parts of an episode, and then you get to a sweet, satisfying boss fight at the end of it all.

Oh, and for previously stated reasons, RANMA 1/2 MAKES ME WANT TO CUT MYSELF.

I am kind of the same way about most animes, but animes like Naruto and Fullmetal Alchemist really have me wanting more. So if you wanted to try something you could try these two animes.

I have, again I just can't really get into them.

Naruto is...bleh, no comment, and many people I know hate Sword Art Online for being incredibly predictable and having no focus on the plot.

As silly as this sounds, I do think there's at least one anime out there for each person that they will really enjoy.

That one anime for me is Naruto. What is yours?
