Hayate no Gotoku Cuties Episode 4 - Isumi and Sakuya

ELLO! Tadashi here and I'll be talking about the 4th episode of Hayate no Gotoku Cuties which focuses on Isumi and Sakuya.

As well all know, Isumi is a responsible girl, but she also has her other points. She can't use technology, is somewhat a special airhead, and has absolutely no sense of direction. This episode she wants a maid so we go through some funny gags in order for her to find the one.

Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Come wa Machigatteiru Episode 4 - Chain Mail and the New Trio

Yo! Tadashi here and today I'll be talking about the 4th episode of Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Come wa Machigatteiru which solves another problem and presents an unexpected team.

First we get to see Hikky's imouto. She's a total airhead but at least she isn't ugly and is entertaining to watch.
Thanks to her, we find out what happened to Hikky in the past. He got hit by a car trying to save a dog and that's how he wound up a loner. The owner went to Hikky's school so I'm going to assume it was Yui. It has to be! Can't wait until we find out.

The Service Club today helps out Mr. Popular in regards to a chain mail being sent around. It was easily solved but it also resulted in an unexpected team. Hikky, Saika, and Mr. Popular ended up being in a group.

Suisei no Gargantia Episode 4 - Ledo is Human

Sup guys! Today I'll be talking about the 4th episode of Suisei no Gargantia which shows Ledo establishing himself in the fleet along with some very interesting information.

Ledo begins to speak Japanese. He can only speak small phrases and the big ones he still has Chamber say but it's nice to see some progress here. Looks like he'll be able to speak the language fluently soon.

Photo Kano Episode 4 - More Blackmail, and More Beautiful Shots

Sup guys! Tadashi here and today I'll be talking about the 4th episode of Photo Kano.

Hyakka Ryouran Samurai Bride Episode 4 - Gisen Is Back! Samurai Bride?!

Yo guys! Tadashi here and today I'll be talking about the 4th episode of Hyakka Ryouran Samurai Bride where Gisen makes her debut and we get a little bit of information regarding a Samurai Bride.

Hentai Ouji to Warawanai Neko Episode 3 - Facade Back Already? Steel Sister's Arc Next!

SUP guys. Tadashi here and today I'll be talking about the 3rd episode of Hentai Ouji to Warawanai Neko which finishes off the Azusa arc and starts the next arc which deals with Tsukishi the "Steel Sister".

We learned what happened to Azusa at her old school and man did it piss me off. The prank they pulled off was a totally bitch move. Who considers that "teasing" >_>

Shingeki no Kyojin Episode 4 - It's Finally Time; The Return of the Titans

Sup guys! Tadashi here and today I'll be talking about the 4th episode of Shingeki no Kyojin which brings back the super Titan from 5 years ago and some outstanding scenes.

During the training exercise with Jean and Eren, it was awesome to see some hand-to-hand combat between them. I loved watching Annie totally show those two up. It was a valuable learning experience for them both. Eren even realized the biggest contradiction that no one really thinks about.
She truly is a skilled fighter but is too much of a lone wolf. Just how well would she function during a real mission? The only way I see things changing is if she gains some respect for Eren and his skills since he's most likely to be a leader on a team.

Toaru Kagaku no Railgun S Episode 3 - Misaka, It's True! You Were Cloned


Yo guys! Tadashi here and today I'll be talking about the 3rd episode of Toaru Kagaku no Railgun S.


Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai Episode 4 - The Cute Rival

Sup guys! Tadashi here and today I'll be talking about the 4th episode of Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai which brings over Kirino's rival and roommate from when she studied abroad.

Her name is Ria and she is actually adorable. She's Kirino's rival and Kirino managed to beat her once and Ria came to Japan to find out what gave Kirino the inspiration and motive to do so seeing how she blew Kirino out in a race just the day before she lost.

Date a Live Episode 4 - The Hermit Arc Begins!

Sup guys! Tadashi here and today I'll be talking about the 4th episode of Date a Live which starts us with the Yoshino/Hermit arc.

Hataraku Maou-sama! Episode 4 - The Dark General, Lucifer

SUP guys! Tadashi here and today I'll be talking about the 4th episode of Hataraku Maou-sama which again delivers another high-quality episode that always keeps the viewer interested.

It starts off with a little backstory on Emillia. It shows her as a child living with her dad in a very peaceful village. It's revealed that she's the daughter of an angel which basically makes her the chosen one in order to defeat the Dark Lord. She didn't have much of a choice in becoming the Hero and once her dad and village were killed and destroyed, she immediately wanted to learn how to use the sword.
The cost of becoming the Hero wasn't small as it looked like she didn't enjoy it. It made it seem like it was something that was forced upon her.

Devil Survivor 2 Episode 4 - And That Was Day 2

Sup guys! Today I'll be talking about the 4th episode of Devil Survivor 2 which delivers the conclusion of "Merak" the Septemptrions attacking the city.

Ginga Kikoutai: Majestic Prince Episode 4 - Playing Hero Will Get You Killed

Yo guys! Today I'll be talking about the 4th episode of Ginga Kikoutai: Majestic Prince which offers some more backstory and an intro to some new characters.


So it seems like the war suddenly happened. The aliens came out of nowhere and since the initial attack, they've been left in the dark when it comes to technology, objectives, etc.
Kids over the age of 12 have been altered to become fighting soldiers and Rin-Rin has been in charge of them as an instructor at the academy.

The episode continues the fight from last episode with Tamaki getting her machine badly destroyed forcing her to eject. It wouldn't have been possible if Izura didn't do what he did so he really did save her life. He also tried to play hero again and went and saved Kei leaving his suit immobile. Luckily he was saved by this group called Team Doberman who are their senpai's and highly more skilled.

This episode also showed how stupid the captain is not issuing a retreat earlier costing them tons of damages.

The scene where they talked about if they would be hugged if they died was pretty sad. In the end, they are just kids after all and kids have no place on the battlefield. Asagi told them straight that they probably won't, and that's probably true seeing how they have no past.

Dansai Bunri no Crime Edge Episode 4 - Friend or Foe?

Sup guys! Today I'll be talking about the 4th episode of Dansai Bunri no Crime Edge which shows us 2 more authors.

The episode starts off with a little timeskip. Kiri-kun and crew are now all third years and most of them are in the same class. Even Byouinzaka is in their class.
Kiri was able to have a nice talk with Byouinzaka and told her that she shouldn't feel abnormal. She believes she isn't normal and that's why she's shunned but Kiri tells her to be more approachable and open. This really makes her feel better as no one has probably ever said that to her before.
She tries this out by reaching out to Iwai.

RDG: Red Data Girl Episode 4 - More Than Meets The Eye In This School

Sup guys! Today I'll be talking about the 4th episode of RDG which really picked up and become about 10x more interesting. I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out.

The episode starts off with Izumiko getting a little more familiar with her new school, roommate, and surroundings. Her roommate, Mayura, brings up the idea of "reinventing" themselves so Izumiko decides to take off her glasses for a change. The thing about her glasses is that it's some kind of charm that her mother gave her since without them, she's able to see more of those creepy things/spirits.
During class, she noticed one of them and it decided to confront her and told her to go to the audiovisual room.

Hayate no Gotoku Cuties Episode 3 - A-tan Is Adorable!

Sup guys! Tadashi here and today I'll be talking about the 3rd episode of Hayate no Gotoku Cuties which focuses on A-tan and ohmagawd she is shooooo cute!

It starts off by her giving an introduction but she also states she can't remember her memories from when she was Athena Tennousu (Hayate's first love). I wonder why it's turned out like this? Hopefully we get some explanation later on.

Kakumeiki Valvrave Episode 2 - The Super Mecha and the Monster

Yo! Today I'll be talking about episode 2 of Kakumeiki Valvrave which delivered an almost preditable revival along with a super golden mecha lol...

Haruto wakes up in L-Elf's body (lolwtf) thanks to his new found vampire powers and attacks L-Elf's comrades. Now they believe L-Elf betrayed them and they're out to get him.

Hyakka Ryouran Samurai Bride Episode 3 - It's About Time Kanetsugu!

Yo guys! Tadashi here and today I'll be talking about the 3rd episode of Hyakka Ryouran Samurai Bride which delivers a well overdue new master samurai.

Personally, Kanetsugu has always been one of my favorites but everyone really does treat her like a dog. It finally got to her and she decided to leave the dojo.

Photo Kano Episode 3 - The Greatest Slide On Earth


Sup guys! Tadashi here and today I'll be talking about the 3rd episode of Photo Kano which delivers more gorgeous girls and just proves how lucky this guy is.

The opening scene starts off with Maeda getting lucky right off the bat. Please be a sign of them ending up together in the end<3


Suisei no Gargantia Episode 3 - Arigatou

Sup guys! Tadashi here and I'll be talking about episode 3 of Suisei no Gargantia.

Ledo had a nice talk with Bellows and he learned more about the pirates and the situation. The key thing he learned was offer water to those who catch fish for you which makes him ask them for a trade where he will be able to live there. Protecting your entire fleet in exchange for a place to stay? I'd say that's pretty reasonable.

The pirates come and attack behind who they call Rakage (for obvious reasons hahaha please tell me you get it so I don't look dumb LOL) and she thinks she's all high and mighty but she gets a huge wake up call.

Shingeki no Kyojin Episode 3 - Atta Boy Eren!

Yo guys! Tadashi here and today I'll be talking about the 3rd episode of Shingeki no Kyojin which brings us through the process of Eren becoming a soldier.

The guy in charge of the training is a very loud and annoying guy who believes crushing who you were then building you into a soldier ground up is the way to go. I found him to be mean, but it's reality and if people can't focus and do things properly or take things seriously, they're going to end up as food for the titans.
The potato girl in particular caught my eye. She seems like she's going to play an important role in the future so I can't wait to see more of her.

"I-i-i-it's not what you think!"

Hentai Ouji to Warawanai Neko Episode 2 - Poor Azusa...

Sup guys! Tadashi here and today I'll  be talking about the 2nd episode of Hentai Ouji to Warawanai Neko.

The episode starts off with a hilarious telling of how Youto spends his days stalking and following Azusa.

Saturday, April 20, 2013

Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai Episode 3 - Saori Saori and More Saori!

Sup guys! Tadashi here and today I'll be talking about the 3rd episode of Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai which delivers a full on Saori episode.

Kawaiiiiiiii

Date a Live Episode 3 - The Date, The Death? The Seal

Yo! Today I'll be talking about the 3rd episode of Date a Live which gives us the conclusion of the Tohka arc.

The episode starts off where we left off last episode. It's the ultimate date experience for Tohka. She doesn't even know a date is, but she enjoys herself to the max during this time. The amount of cuteness we received this episode is overkill and honestly, Tohka is just toooooooooooo cute of a character. Her VA does a perfect job (one of my favorite VAs) and everything is goes well together with tons of funny moments.

woof woof

Toaru Kagaku no Railgun S Episode 2 - The Sister's Arc Begins!

Yo guys! Tadashi here and today I'll be talking about the 2nd episode of Toaru Kagaku no Railgun S which begins to open up with the Sister's arc.

Nothings changed lol

Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Come wa Machigatteiru Episode 3 - Trap! And Yukino Can Play!

Sup guys! Tadashi here and today I'll be talking about the 3rd episode of Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Come wa Machigatteiru which introduces Saika the trap and an epic tennis match.

The episode starts off with another interesting monologue from Hikki. In ended with him getting hit in the face in the funniest way which made me lol.

Hikki meets Saika who asks for his help. He, I repeat, HE has an overpowering femininity that even Hikki has trouble against. Hikki said "If he wasn't a guy, I would've confessed on the spot and gotten rejected" which really goes to show how feminine Sai is.

Yes, this is a guy. G-U-Y

Hataraku Maou-sama! Episode 3 - The Culprit, The Earthquakes, and Chi-chan

Sup guys! Tadashi here and today I'll be talking about the 3rd episode of Hataraku Maou-sama! which delivered another epic episode with tons of cute shots of our heroine. It also includes my newfound love Chi-chan <3

First I just wanted to say the opening scene where Emi leaves the key behind and Ashiya talks about how he would do it instead was hilarious. Emi of course left the key (being the hero) but Ashiya said he would take the key with him while Maou called him evil which is incredibly ironic since he is a demon.

Devil Survivor 2 Episode 3 - A Demon That Can Speak and Control?

Yo guys! Today I'll be talking about the 3rd episode of Devil Survivor which delivers a rather well done episode.

Ginga Kikoutai: Majestic Prince Episode 3 - Another Losing Battle

Yo guys! Tadashi here and today I'll be talking about the 3rd episode of Majestic Prince.

The Fail Five are given a 36hr break before their next mission and are sent to a resort. The embarrassment they suffered from before still looms over their heads and it seems to be the talk everywhere. It's even a little hard for them since they are on a vacation but the news is still being told everywhere.

Kei started to question things like why she can't decided things for herself. She can only listen to orders given to her. Izuru says it doesn't matter for a hero which cheers her up a bit.

Dansai Bunri no Crime Edge Episode 3 - Evil Blood In His Veins

Yo guys! Tadashi here and I'll be talking about the 3rd episode of  Dansai Bunri no Crime Edge which delivers Kiri's first real fight with another Author.

RDG: Red Data Girl Episode 3 - The First Friend

Hey guys, Tadashi here! Today I'll be talking about the 3rd episode of Red Data Girl which tackles Wamiya and who he really is.

The episode begins with Miyuki deciding to embrace his role instead of trying to run away from it. It also seems that the hostility he's shown towards Suzahara isn't there and they seem to be able to talk more openly now. Was this all just because of the trip? Maybe he's finally understood things.

Yes, he is actually laughing

Hayate no Gotoku! Cuties Episode 2 - Miss Nagi is Kawaii!

Yo guys! It's Tadashi and today I'll be talking about the 2nd episode of Hayate no Gotoku which focuses on the first heroine, Nagi.

Shingeki no Kyojin Episode 2 - Revenge Etched In Eren's Heart

Sup guys! Today I'll be talking about the 2nd episode of the crazy Shingeki no Kyojin with the potential for anime of the season/year.

This episode continues off the first episode with the slaughtering of the villagers and destruction of the town and man was this intense. We get another glimpse of a "super titan" and this one shows intense speed and strength. It's weird for something with this size being able to do what it does. But it does it anyways.

Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai Episode 2 - Ayase the Yandere

Yo guys! Tadashi here and I'll be talking about episode 2 of Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai which delivers an Ayase filled episode.

The episode focuses on Ayase feeling replaced (again) by Kirino and her games. Kirino has gotten herself addicted to a game called Love++ where she has made a virtual girlfriend and pays more attention to her than she does with Ayase. Ayase goes to Kyousuke for help.

Pervert Punch!

Suisei no Gargantia Episode 2 - You Guys Asked For It

Sup guy! Tadashi here and let's talk about episode 2 of Suisei no Gargantia where we get some nice information and some action.


Hentai Ouji to Warawanai Neko Episode 1 - The Hentai Prince

Yo guys! Tadashi here and I'll be talking about the first episode of Hentai Ouji to Warawanai Neko or Henneko for short.

This is one of the shows I was really looking forward too and I'm glad it was picked up by a very reliable group.

The two main leads are pretty cute together but Tsukiko is wayyyyy to cute.


It's too bad she lost her ability to show emotions since it made her 10x cuter. The whole idea that Youto now freely speaks his mind because of the cat god makes this show hilarious. Because of his pervertedness, everything he says in all the situations he's in are gold.

Right, Flatty?

Toaru Kagaku no Railgun S Episode 1 - Welcome Back Misaka!

Sup guys! Today I'll be talking about episode 1 of the much anticipated Toaru Kagaku no Railgun S.

I was a huge fan of the first season and Misaka is easily one of my all time favorite characters. It was great to finally see her back in action.

Oh how I missed you <3

Photo Kano Episode 2 - This Guy Is Just Too Lucky

SUP! Today, let's talk about episode 2 of Photo Kano.

This episode we got plenty of beauty shots of my favorite heroine so far, Haruka.

Hyakka Ryouran Samurai Bride Episode 2 - New Samurai Master..?

Yo guys! Tadashi here and I'll be talking about episode 2 which delivered a new, highly unexpected Samurai Master.

Sasuke, or Sacchin has made her appearance and she sure knows how to do it right. I just find it hilarious that she was the one stealing everyone's pantsu but the best part was when she stole Gutsugutsu's pantsu.

Date a Live Episode 2 - Tsundere Tohka Makers Her Appearance


Oi guys! Tadashi here and let's talk about episode 2 of Date a Live. We're about midway through the Tohka arc and so far, it's been great.

Congrats on beating the game

Kakumeiki Valvrave Episode 1 - Just Woah

Yo guys! Tadashi here with episode 1 of Kakumeiki Valvrave. It delivers a mixed episode along with some similar scenes from past shows.

The beginning of the show was the normal everyday school life of a group of students who don't live on Earth, but rather a colony like place. And yes, this had very Gundam-like feels to it. A lot IMO.

Our MC is a very Kira Yamato/Shu type MC who doesn't like fighting at would rather things be settled peacefully. He is also head over heels for this girl named Shoko (VA of Chihaya <3) and is just about to confess his feelings for her.

Friday, April 12, 2013

Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Come wa Machigatteiru Episode 2 - A Glimpse of Hikki's Past?

Yo! Tadashi here and right now I'll be talking about the 2nd episode of this long titled show.

Unfortunately, the episode didn't really progress the story much. We were introduced characters that weren't at all interesting when we would much rather see this trio duke it out with jabs at each other. The one thing I really like is the soundtrack, especially at the beginning when Hikki gives his little output on life and he is actually really spot on. Maybe kids can learn from this guy.

Yukinon, the super straightforward girl

Hataraku Maou-sama! Episode 2 - Emi is Moe Beyond Belief

Sup guys! Tadashi here and I'm going to be talking about the 2nd episode of this hilarious comedy show that does not fail to disappoint.

This episode starts off with the two confronting each other to the point where Emi<3 pulls out a cheap dollarstore switchblade and attempts to kill Maou. They were of course apprehended by the police and taken to the station.

Devil Survivor 2 Episode 2 - 6 Days, 6 Enemies

Hey guys, Tadashi here and I'll be talking about the 2nd episode of Devil Survivor 2. We get some much needed info and the episode didn't feel rushed at all.

Ginga Kikoutai: Majestic Prince Episode 2 - They're Not Ready

Sup guys. Tadashi here and I'm going to be talking about the 2nd episode of Majestic Prince.

This episode delivered the aftermath of their heroics from last episode. They were swamped by the media with tons of questions but their inexperience led them to answer with non-professional answers. It was very fun to watch though.

The media dubbed them "Majestic Princes" which is were the title comes from. You can't help but feel like because of their heroics, the expectations for them are incredibly high. Even though it was their first time in battle, the feat they accomplished was amazing and marked the first victory in a very long time. If they don't keep up this level of work, they'll be highly criticized. Just imagine the pressure these kids will begin to feel.
A warm thank you

Dansai Bunri no Crime Edge Episode 2 - Let the Games Begin


Yo! Tadashi here and today I'll be talking about the 2nd episode of Dansai Bunri no Crime Edge.

This episode we got some more information about the Killing Goods. People who wield them are called Authors and there are Insteads are used to help keep the Author's murdering desire at bay.

RDG: Red Data Girl Episode 2 - Izumiko Is Just A Vessel?

Yo guys! Tadashi here and it's time to talk about the 2nd episode of RDG: Red Data Girl.

This episode delivered a more creepy feeling and really began to show the plot and where this story is headed.

Izumiko goes on a class trip and while on this trip, she seemed to be followed by certain people. Maybe it's an organization of some sort? Maybe it's an evil cult? But from the various scenes, they are surrounded by a demonic back aura which is never a good sign.

Hayate no Gotoku! Cuties Episode 1 - Let the 4th Season Begin!

Sup guys! It's Tadashi here and I'm going to be talking about the first episode of the new Hayate no Gotoku series.

I wasn't expecting too much from this series since last season really was a disappointment. The character designs  here are noticeably better but still aren't as great as the first two seasons. The OP is beautiful simple because it's Hina singing it and we'll get that every episode. I LOVE her VA.

Sunday, April 07, 2013

Suisei no Gargantia Episode 1 - Welcome to Earth

Sup guys. Tadashi here! Time to talk about episode 1 of Suisei no Gargantia. It delivered better than I thought it would and I don't have a lot to complain about here...except for the eyes. Those eyes on Amy...lol.

The very beginning we get a grand battle between humans and aliens dubbed Hidiaazu.


As you can see from this picture, they really resemble flowers and were even called Blossoms. The fight scene was pretty nice but nothing really stood out as epic.

As Lead, our MC, tried to escape through the wormhole they came from, he wasn't able to hold on and was teleported to some unknown planet. Later we find out it was Earth and according to the present records, it's basically a lost planet in legends.

He was asleep for 6 months before finally waking up to a bunch of unknown people who he assumed were drifters. He ended up taking Amy, the main heroine of the show as a hostage and ran around the building where he and his machine was being kept. He eventually was cornered and had to summon his machine, Chamber.
