Alpha Girl Romance Novel Review??? YES! ROMANCE NOVEL!

Ok, so as you can tell from the title of this review, it is a ROMANCE novel. Strange for me to review this, I know. It will be alright. Calm down. If you haven't read a romance novel then I completely understand if you just wanna skip this one. This is going to be a "meh" kind of review so if you are interested in read a romance novel... Don't make this one your first. It's not that great if you don't like a LOT of drama. It's more like a soap opera.

As many of you know, I love romance anime/manga. So, of course I will try romance novels. 

I have read quiet a few romance novels. All of them being paranormal because I just can't get into normals. WAY to boring for my taste. Lately I have been having a kick out of werewolves more than vampires. Maybe because I love wolves? Maybe because I love their strength? Or maybe because I love the thought of being able to transform? Heck, MAYBE ALL OF THE ABOVE!

Anyway...

I was pretty interested in the novel because of the plot. Witches, or should I say ... brujas, werewolves, vampires, as actual undead instead of being perfect beings. I love some witches in the mix. I've always loved witches since I was little. 

I have, however, read some reviews about this and I have to agree.. It does run like a soap. I don't mind having a big drama going down but having more than 2 going down.... Well, it gets old after a while. 

I really like the characters and I enjoy reading about them. (Although, it doesn't really give that much detail about the characters, which is disappoint because I enjoy them.) I feel like it could go a lot faster though. It's just going to slow. It's like.... hmm.... talking about a plan to much and not enough action? To much lead up and not enough of the actual plan. I hate waiting so I really just want to skip right to the action. This story goes through 4 volumes so far. The 5th volume comes out next month. 

So you can imagine how long it takes....

By the way, at the beginning, everything happens pretty quickly and I enjoyed it but at the end of the first volume... NOTHING happened... I mean, things did happen but NO romance and no information on things that were mentioned in the first volume... The second volume starts to give you information about other things and helps with the things that you found out in the first volume but when I started the third volume and STILL no romance. So I can't even really call this a romance novel because there is really NOTHING going on. I mean, there is romance but when you think of a romance novel you think of more than just kissing, if you get my drift. ;) Well, there was kissing but other than that... nothing.

The 4th volume, I didn't even bother with because it completely ignored the 4th volume. Volume 4 changed characters. I absolutely, positively HATE that. If you want to change characters, make it their own series. I don't wanna know about their whole story unless you make a series just for them. I want back to the main story, which is about Tessa and Dastien.

I do plan on trying to read the 5th volume because I enjoy the characters. I just hope that it will get to the point in this volume. 

My point is... If you enjoy a lot of drama, then you will most likely like this series and will probably read all the way through it. Unfortunately for me, I had to skip through it. I did read two and a half books in two days because I really enjoyed the characters. I just got tired of the drama going down one after another. You really can't get into the romance with all the drama going down.

But I hope the 5th volume will get down to the business. I just hope it's not slow....

3.5 out of 5 stars for me. 

Inari, Konkon, Koi Iroha Anime Review

Inari, Konkon, Koi Iroha.

I thought this anime was SO CUTE! I mean, seriously, so cute! Of course, knowing me, I don't read the summaries. I just dive right into an anime. :P 

This anime is basically about a girl named Inari, who goes to an Inari shrine all the time. She makes a wish and she meets the Inari god, Uka-sama. Things basically turn into a little bit of a mess and she has trials and tribulations with continuing to do things with godly powers. Plus! Learning about new friends and love.

I personally think it's a really good anime. It's more about learning how to overcome your own fears and stand up for yourself, learn to be more confident and know that a true friend will always be there for you.

HOWEVER! There are a few things that bothered me at the very end... Such as... How her brother can see gods? What happens to his relationship. What happens to her friends relationship. (You will realize once you watch it and I'm sure you will totally ship it! Cause I DOOOOOO!) 

OP music is pretty catchy. Kind of reminds me of Kamisama Hajimemashita. 

Art is pretty normal. Nothing to special.

Gokukoku no Brynhildr Anime Review

Gokukoku no Brynhildr.

So, this anime was interesting, to say the least. The OP/EN music was pretty awesome. I definitely wasn't expecting that type of music for this anime. 

The story, kind of, reminded me of Elfen Lied. Although they are similar, they are very different at the same time. 

The girls in this show are witches and the dude is just a regular human. The witches escape from the lab they were torchered by and the lab is looking for them. Each witch has a special ability.

The boy is just a regular human, like I said. When he was a child, he had a childhood friend, who he was obviously in love with, that died. Then he meets this witch that looks exactly like her. 

It's basically about them and some other friends, witches, trying to stay away from the lab. 

The story was pretty good but a LOT of things were left out by the end of the series. 

For example...

His family.

Her family.

What happened to (Can't tell you details because it would ruin it, sort of ?) the girl she was fighting at the end?

What happened to the girls at the end?

One of the main girls memories?

How did one girl still live without her 'mechanics'.

Did they cure them?

Did they get medicine?

WHAT IS GOING ON!!!! JFISJSAOIJDISAJKSA

So, if you completely just skip over all of that and more and just stick with the main story then you will be alright.

I just like knowing back story....There was none of that here.

But all in all, it was ok. 

Be warned... It has it's perversion in it. It doesn't really show anything though. Just be warned that you probably shouldn't watch it around kids. Just saying.

The art was rather pretty though. It wasn't anything special but it was nice.

I did watch this in 1.25 days. It's really short but I was pretty addicted to finish it.

So although it had it's flaws, I enjoyed watching it. 

Anohana: The flower we saw that day Anime Review

Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo,

I didn't think I would cry about this anime. I mean, I knew it was sad. EVERYONE who knows about this anime, knows it's sad. 

If you don't know about this anime...

SPOILER! IT'S SAD! 

Just saying.

If you don't know much about the storyline...

It's about the white hair'd chick, Menma. She's dead. Yeah, dead. No spoiler there. You figure it out in the first 2 minutes. Only one dude can see her, Jintan. Jintan is the dude on the far left. 

Everyone in the picture use to be friends as a child until Menma passed away. After that, they drifted apart and Jintan became a hermit. >.>

Everyone thinks he's crazy and gets upset about Menma. 

But then they start to wonder if he really is telling the truth.

They decide to figure out what Menma's last wish was so that she can go to heaven. 

That's basically it.

Now you know.

So, I mean, it's sad. I knew that. I just didn't think it was going to make me cry. To be honest, I don't know if my tears were happy or sad tears. A little of both maybe?

There are some love triangles in this and some weird, crazy parts that make you think that some people need some mental help. >.< But it's actually a really good anime.

I'm not gonna say it was my favorite and I'm not going to say that it was retardedly sad because it wasn't. It had enough sadness to make me feel and enough funny parts to make me really love most of the characters.

I feel like there wasn't the same amount of time for each character. So, you couldn't like each one of them the same. 

Of course, the main story is more about Jintan and Menma so I guess it didn't really matter about the others... But at the end you kind of wanted to know more about the others because of how much Menma cared about everyone.

You just don't really know what these kids went through with her passing except for Jintan. 

On a side note... You just wanna hug these parents cause these are probably the most understanding parents I have ever seen. Seriously....

ART:

The art was nice. Some parts were pretty, flowing and just nice to watch.

The art in general is pretty normal?

Music: 

The OP is pretty catchy to listen to. I didn't skip it and I felt like it didn't mess up the anime. Like some songs just ruin the moment? This one didn't. 

ED song I didn't really listen to... It's one of those ... meh... songs. You know?

Bloody Kiss Short Story Review

This manga is basically about a girl who wants to remember her first love. 

Wakaba (The chick) finds out that Yukito (The dude, of course.) is her first love. 

I think it was kind of funny cause all she can really remember is him crying and then all of a sudden...

BAM! Boy crying. I'm just like... Ok, he's a cry baby. Alrighty then.

This was an ok short story. I feel like they could have did it a little better. They rushed it in the wrong parts, if that makes sense? All in all, it was ok. Cute story. It was just wasn't put together that well. 

I have to admit though.... The extra story was super cute. 

I felt like they could have made a very interesting manga with it. 

But since it's not, It still had a cute ending. Some may say it was way to rushed and everything BUT you have to think about it in way that she has been doing this for a while. I really liked it. It was cute.

  I can't say much about it but these are both vampire stories so if you don't care for vampires then you probably won't like them. >.>

The manga-ka does have a thing with rose keys... I guess it's one way to show that she made both? But eh.... 

Anyway, It's really cute so you should check them out! 

P.S. Don't confuse this with Bloody Kiss by Furumiya Kazuko. This is not the same person or same manga. This one was created by Yagami Rina. Hope that helps!

'Another' Anime Review (hehe)

Ok, ok. I couldn't help but giggle at my titled.... 

What do you expect when the anime is called 'Another'?

So, I started watching this a while back and never got around to finishing it because of being busy. I FINALLY decided to watch the rest of it and not be lazy and I'm so glad I did. 

This anime was created from a book and if you like paranormal/gore, you will love this anime...

On that note.... CAUTION: Please be aware to not watch this in front of children unless its ok for them to see gore.

I couldn't stop watching anime. I literally spent my day watching all 12 episodes. It's THAT good!

Who ever wrote the book, they should make more... and then they should make it into an anime because this was really great! I feel like it had just enough of everything in it. Not over doing anything. 

(If I cosplayed, I would definitely cosplay as Mei, the girl in the picture above.

I don't really have any big complaints about this anime. I do have to admit that with all the different characters... You get a bit confused at the very end... For me, I didn't really understand the part about remembering 1.5 years ago.... I felt like I was getting way confused about that part and I would really love to learn what had happen to make Koichi be there at that time... Also, why doesn't he remember? If anyone has some clues as to what happened... Please let me know cause I really got confused at that part.

 I feel like if you like the anime, Ghost hunt, you will also like this one as well. It has a different premise of course, but it's in the same category. 

It definitely kept you guessing and I enjoyed it to the very end. I even enjoyed the ending! Yes! The ending! Surprising for me, I know! I never like endings! 

I suggest everyone that can endure blood to watch this! You won't be disappointed!  

(Little heads up.... This is a pretty serious anime with a little bit of comic relief in little parts of it. So if you like a lot of comic relief, you won't find it here.)

Art:

So I really liked the art. It gave the creepyness at the right time and the cuteness at just the right moment. 

Music:

So, The beginning song is by Ali Project. The singer that also made the opening for Rozen Maiden. She has her own unique sounds and I personally like her.

The ending song.... I didn't stay to long to listen to, to be honest. lol 

Tokyo Ghoul √A Rreview

Many of you know that I really love Tokyo Ghoul.. Others have no idea. THAT'S OK! JUST WATCH IT!

I really loved the first season. The second season also kept my interest very much. I watched it every week. It had a lot of interesting twists and turns in it. 

I did have some complaints about it. 

There were some things they didn't really go into detail about and you were just like.... what was the point in bringing those characters into play.... *cough*The twins*Cough*

I wanted to know more about these girls and to find out why they were following Kaneki and what exactly their purpose was.... They just disappeared and it was sort of pointless to put those girls (as cool as they look) in the anime.... 

I feel like they could have done a little more with this season. 

The ending was just empty for me.... I wanted more and was left hanging. 

If you could have seen my face.... Mouth open... Eyes wide... hands on head.... Hair tussled.... Yeah... That was me.

One other thing... 

WHAT IS UP WITH THIS CHICK?! I WANNA KNOW!!!! 

To many things unanswered.....

I'm not sure if I will watch the next season or not... I mean, I hope they give more info on these people but I don't think they will.... 

Anyway, All in all... I think this season was ok. I think they could have made it longer and gave more information and did some different things. 

I still think it's a good anime though and would definitely watch it again.

Opening and Ending songs were not my favorite though. Just saying.
