Summer 2012 – Week 8 Anime Review

This week: Natsuyuki Rendezvous is losing me, a curious and disorienting visual effect in Sword Art Online, my love for those amazingly animated “explanation sequences” in Hyouka, and yet another remarkable aspect of Sengoku Collection.

Summer 2012 – Mid-Season Review

These middle weeks of the Summer anime season serve as a highly appropriate period to provide evaluations, grades, and rankings on each of the anime we’re following.  Here, you’ll find my reviews for each of the anime I’m following for the Summer 2012 season.

Summer 2012 – Week 6 Anime Review

This week: why Satoshi is more than a database in Hyouka, altering character dynamics in Sengoku Collection, abrupt character growth in Tari Tari, and the perfect way to ruin a great story in Sword Art Online.

Summer 2012 – Week 4 Anime Review

This week: my favorite romance in Sword Art Online, character energy in Sengoku Collection, a change of setting to perhaps revitalize Rinne no Lagrange and, finally, a disagreement I have with Natsuyuki Rendezvous.

Summer 2012 – Week 3 Anime Review

This week… well, really last week, so all these episodes are a bit outdated but it’s still relevant to the anime: the ideal male lead in Natsuyuki Rendezvous, lesbians in Rinne no Lagrange,  stupidity in Sword Art Online, and something about school that I actually like in Hyouka.

Summer 2012 – Week 2 Anime Review

This week: a fantastic and supplementary use to the overlays in Sengoku Collection, examining fragmentation of the Classics Club in Hyouka, and that annoying convenience in Tari Tari.
