Touken Ranbu: Hanamaru

This anime was quite enjoyable. Fantasy, comedy, spiced with action and the unity of brotherhood; Touken Ranbu Hanamaru or "The Dance of Swords", is a very cute anime series you can enjoy anytime you're in the mood for an anime to relax to.

The characters in this series are samurai swords which were brought to life as humans.Their main purpose is to protect history by defeating the history retrograde army whose goal is to change the course of history as they know it. But would their own attachments to the past and regrets lead them to become just like the enemies they are fighting against?

This is the first installment of this series but it was very satisfying to watch down to the very end.
The characters all had unique and alluring personalities and the artwork was superbly designed. The scenery in this anime was also very attractive and so were the characters. 

Another aspect of this anime that I really liked was the theme of friendship, brotherhood and teamwork. There was never a dull moment, however, at some points, I felt like the storyline was a bit fragmented but everything usually came together nicely in the end.

The emotions of the characters also captivated me and there were some amazing quotes that taught great life lessons.



It's a 12 episode anime and I recommend it if you want to watch a cute fantasy anime with few action scenes, that's still funny and has a homey feel to it.

PS:  I had a really difficult time choosing pictures for this post because there were so many pretty and funny scenes in this anime that I wanted to share!

Zoku Touken Ranbu: Hanamaru

Season two of this anime was very enjoyable as well. It was similar to season one of course and still lots of fun, laughter and memories to be had by these sword brothers.

There were lots of new swords and of course, new scenarios to keep you smiling as you enjoy this relaxing anime peppered in between with with action.

I highly recommend this anime because it's fun, clean, relaxing and heartwarming. And of course, the artwork was as impeccable as usual!



Two seasons, 12 episodes each. Definitely try it if you haven't already!

Rakudai kishi no Cavalry - Chivalry of a Failed Knight

Beautiful scenes, and strong, courageous characters are a few of the many wonders to look forward to in this action fiction, fantasy, romance anime.
But I'm going to tell you from the start that this anime has lots of suggestive scenes and content so I would not recommend this one for kids, although, I'll bet it's not the worst anime of it's kind.

Chivalry of a Failed Knight captures the story of a Ikki Kurogane, who, due to his lack of magical ability, was marked as an F-rank Blazer. As a result, he was ignored by his family as a child growing up. 

However, he didn't give up and ended up joining Hagun Academy, where he hopes to win the Seven Stars Sword Art festival and finally graduate in spite of the lack of support from his family.

This story also follows Ikki's budding romance with Stella Vermillion, an A-rank blazer, who is hot headed and is constantly jealous of Ikki's interaction with other girls. This anime begins as Ikki sees Stella changing her clothes. It was found out soon after that these two were to be roommates.



What really drew me into the anime was the contrast between Ikki's personality and Stella's. Ikki is mature, cautious, level headed, generous and even sometimes naive, compared to the hot tempered and impulsive Stella. Their personalities balance out each others and that really is refreshing. And yes, there is a bit of humor in the mix, so it's not all uptight.



Also, it's always nice to see how Ikki handles the difficult  situations he encounters and it's especially interesting since he has weaknesses which he has to work hard to overcome. One of my favorite quotes from this anime was, "With my strongest, I'll beat your strongest."

Although, it was obvious to me, that the battles in this anime were not the creators' major focus, (since a lot of times they would highlight the spirit of the players rather than the movements made in battle), they were able to intrigue me and added enough action to make the series enjoyable. 

I actually enjoyed this anime more than I expected I would. 

So, can  the "worst one" change his nickname, win the girl and prove his family and critics wrong? Well there's only one way to find out (unless, of course, you read the spoilers).
Give it a try if you're in a whimsical mood and you don't mind a bit of risqué scenes.

Shingeki no Kyojin Season 3- Attack on Titan

If you're a fan of Attack on Titan, I'm happy to tell you that season 3 is definitely not going to disappoint you. Mystery, gore and non-stop action, no titans in the first two episodes so far though but lots of Levi!

Levi as a Kid

If you're new to Attack on Titan, basically, humanity has built three walls to protect themselves against their greatest predator; Titans, who consume humans for no apparent reason. This anime follows the story of a young man, Eren Jeager, as he and his friends try to figure out the truth behind the titans in order to free humanity. However, there are some huge twists in this story, I dare not say more than that though, you'll just have to watch it and find out!
The twists are what makes this series enjoyable.

Left to Right: Mikasa, Eren and Armin as children

There are lots of surprises in store in this anime and just so you know, it is rated 17+, this is due to scenes which may be disturbing to children (or even adults if you are tender at heart), and some explicit language. 

It is a very creative series and if you really want drama, a heart pounding, tear jerking, dark fantasy, and of course if you're over 17 and you can handle a bit of a thrill, give it a go.

Eeekkk A Flustered Levi!!!

Season 3 has been great so far though, better than season 2 in my opinion since season 2 only really had me engrossed at around the last four episodes or so. The mysteries left at the end of season 2 left me wanting more so I've been looking forward to season 3!

Who is Kenny and why does he have humanities strongest soldier, Levi Ackerman, on edge? Who is after Eren and Historia and why? Can the special ops figure out what's going on in the capital before it's too late?

These questions and more will be answered in this series, definitely give it a try today. 

Gekkan Shojo Nozaki-kun

Let me introduce you to my favorite anime of all time! Witty, clever and always humorous, Gekkan Shojo Nozaki-kun is a clean, fun anime that will have you laughing from beginning to end.



I love this anime because these types of scenarios; ones where the outcomes are not conventional or predictable, are exactly what makes me laugh, but whatever your comedy style is, I'm sure this anime will at least give you a chuckle.

This anime at first follows Sakura Chiyo as she goes to confess to her love, Umetaro Nozaki, and no one would be able to guess what happened next.

That's how the friendship between Sakura Chiyo and her crush Umetaro Nozaki began!

The series follows these two and their friends as they try to help Nozaki come up with new characters and scenarios for his shojo manga.

(*manga is the Japanese equivalent to comics)

Sakura was reading a draft of Nozaki's manga, because all their faces were the same, Sakura figured that it didn't matter who the heroine chose.

Whether it's people watching, experimenting or drafting and editing, this anime will take you into the comical life of this young manga artist and show you how things can go wrong in all the right ways!

Even if you have no prior knowledge of manga, this 12 episode series will teach you a thing or two, placing you in the shoes of a shojo manga artist. 
(*shojo manga is a type of manga made particularly for girls). 
Also, this anime isn't just for girls, guys can enjoy it just as much.

The unconventional characters and their hilarious personalities, relationships and encounters will definitely have you laughing. The characters' reactions are what really makes this anime funny. You'll definitely been craving more episodes when you finish this series, but have no fear, the manga is just as fantastic! 

You read the manga from right to left.

I really hope that if you try this series, you enjoy it as much as I do! Give it a try today, if you haven't already, you won't be disappointed!

Code:Realize

Are you ready for a romantic adventure that takes you back into the industrialized streets of Victorian London?
Then Code:Realize, is just for you. Eccentric characters, mysterious villains and surprises at every turn, while it's more laid back than some anime sharing its genres, Code:Realize is quite enchanting.

It all begins as Arsene Lupin, the mysterious gentleman thief, steals the treasure of a lifetime from the British army; a beautiful girl named Cardia Beckford. However, there is more to Cardia than meets the eyes, she is cursed with a terrible poison, as a result, anything she touches with her bare skin melts beneath her grasp.



Wishing to protect her, Arsene and his friends try to help Cardia find out more about herself in order to break her tragic curse while simultaneously fighting to prevent Cardia's father from destroying London and the rest of the world. 



The romantic scenes in this anime were pretty cute and the characters' stories added to the intrigue and charm of this anime. It was also very humorous at times.



Funny and witty with a steam punk styled setting, Code:Realize is sure to pull you into its fantastic fantasy world of London; a world with Vampires, Soldiers and of course Herlock Sholmes! 

Can Arsene save Cardia and make her wish come true; her wish to feel the warmth of another, or will she be sacrificed for the dark purpose for which she was created? 

Give it a try and find out for yourself if this gentleman thief and his friends can protect their Princess and save the day!
