psipsyIt's time for another happy fun anime review post!
Mezzo DSA: High octane fun! Comedic improbability! Umetsu's designs! This one's a keeper. It's the TV series of the Mezzo Forte OVA, which has some elements that can only be found in an OVA. However, the series stands well enough, if not better, on its own without the hardcore sex scenes. Anyway, there's a bunch of things that make this worth watching, such as Mikura's wild takes, wanton use of guns and explosives, and completely impossible situations with even more impossible solutions.
Bobobo-bo Bobo-bo: Ok... Now, I've seen some crazy anime before. But damn... Whoever made this was on some serious drugs. Imagine an anime version of Johnny Bravo in a Fist of the North Star setting, using his nose hairs like whips to protect innocent people from getting their hair taken. After watching this, I had to watch 5 episodes of Popotan for something more normal. Yeah. If I tried to describe Bobobo any further, I'd... Oh, I don't know what I'd do. I'm not even gonna bother trying any further. I just want to see the next episode.
Mahoromatic season 2: Watched the entirety of it in one sitting. The first two thirds was mostly goofing off and fanservice, and the last third was plot. The ending itself was quite moving. Even though Mahoro was an android in a cartoon, she was more human than many other anime characters, as well as a few contestants on reality tv shows.
Gunslinger Girl: Some young children are rescued from near-death, modified, and trained to be assassins. Gritty, violent series that I'm quite interested in seeing how it all turns out.
Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu!: I confess that I haven't seen the original series, so I've put off watching this. However, at a recent anime club meeting, it was shown. Oh, it was hilarious. From what I could tell, I didn't really need to see the whole first series to understand Fumoffu.
That's I feel like saying for now about that. I'm going to bed now.
