Occult Academy 01

Occult Academy

Y’know, usually it’s “guy meets naked girl” not “girl meets naked guy”. Great lampshade I guess?

And that was a pretty crazy first episode, what with zombies lamies, Kobayashi Yu being disgusting, Hikasa Yoko being wild and Kana Hanazawa turning in to a zombie. Oh, and Takehito Koyasu as fat goth dowser. Not to mention the half-serious facial expressions of disgust and utter contempt from Maya.

Looks interesting enough, despite the pretty barebones-in-terms-of-real-plot opener and the half-serious tone of the show (I don’t know if they are genuinely trying to make a horror story or a parody of one). Keeper for now.

P.S. Ouch face mop, ouch.

High School of the Dead 01

… or better known as “Fanservice of the Dead”

High School of the Dead

At least she dies wearing nice panties.

With shots like this dominating the bulk of the show, I’m inclined to fully agree on that.

So… one of the most anticipated shows of the season finally comes out, fully baring tits and ass immediately. This is AIKA-level panty-shot amount and if you’re in to that shit, this show’s gonna be a field day for you pervs.

As for myself, while I appreciate the curves of the feminine figure, I have come to also appreciate that it’s best enjoyed subtly, so blaring it out like the vuvuzelas in Johannesburg isn’t really up my alley so much more compared to a few years ago.

Combined with the amazingly trope-laden introduction episode and the sheer emo-whiny-bitchiness that seems to be our main heroine… I almost didn’t make it out of the first episode.

High School of the Dead

Seriously, she’s a real bitch.

But hey, I’ve heard good things about the supporting cast. Like that tsundere genius twintailed girl and that really coodere sword girl who’s apparently a real sadist AND voiced by Her Queenliness Miyuki Sawashiro herself, things might look up real fast later on. Keeper for now.

LOL, final arc is bloomer vs spats battle for the sports festival attire.

And, yeah, I didn’t drop it after ping pong, I just lost energy to blog it.

Negima! 294

Negima

Negi is getting a Crowning Moment of Awesome or two per chapter nowadays. It kinda makes every other popular shounen manga series look pedestrian in comparison.

Seitokai no Yakuindomo 01

Seitokai no Yakuindomo

It’s Seitokai no Ichizon + High School Girls. I didn’t like High School Girls much but I loved Seitokai to bits so I’ll give this show a chance. I’ll be honest though, I’m not a fan of girls talking dirty stuff like pads and tampons so casually. If they use those jokes a bit too much I might just drop this show.

Aside from that, this show has the most quirky ED of the season so far, with Angela doing some fast-paced pop number with rapping thrown in for no good reason apart from showing that atsuko can and will rap. I think we’ve established that over the past 2 singles she’s released. I would like to see her perform it live though, just to see if she can do it on stage.

Also, most pathetic male lead of the season so far. He gets pwned by a ~140cm 16-year old high school genius twintailed returner with IQ 180′s throwing shoe attack. Seriously.

Seitokai no Yakuindomo

Ouch. Pretty much the antithesis of Key-kun. Key-kun would’ve had a fucking field day in this school.

I had my reservations on how the show would turn out to be, but it looks like that worry was unfounded given that I’m already laughing 2 seconds in to the OP.
