Tasogare Otome x Amnesia – Impressions
Tasogare Otome x Amnesia was my last pick of the season. At first it escaped my radar since it seemed to be a horror or mystery anime about ghosts, etc., which is usually not my thing. But after a while, I saw people on Google+ and Twitter enthusiastic about it, and posting pictures of a well-endowed cute girl who happened to be a ghost, and decided to give it a try.

Sengoku Collection. I guess the “collection” part comes, fittingly, from the fact that the anime has a format of mini-stories loosely related with each other. And sometimes I just think it has the potential to immensely troll (I will explain that later), but sometimes I’m just in love with this series.

I gave the Medaka Box manga a try before watching the anime, but decided to wait and see how far the anime got, but I think it’s been going at too slow a pace, which seems to be the main complaint among the fans of the manga, and I agree. The other complaint, that Toyosaki Aki seems to be a bad choice for Medaka, seems a little less clear to me, although I agree that maybe Hikasa Youko would have been a better match. Yet, I like hearing a completely different kind of voice acting from Toyosaki Aki.

One of the reasons this wasn’t really on my watchlist was that it seemed to be a parody/reference anime about Lovecraft, about which I know almost nothing. However, the anime doesn’t really require you to be familiar with it to enjoy it, and has enough random references to other popular stuff, from Pokémon to Back to the Future.

I think I know enough mahjong to at least get how you win, what ron or tsumo or a dora tile or riichi is, and above all to know how over-the-top all the mahjong superpowers are, and I know way too little mahjong to get how points are counted, why some hand or decision is so surprising, etc.
But you know what? Saki Achiga-hen, just like Saki the original series, is only marginally about mahjong, unless you are really into it. Saki is over and above the yuri background stories.

Although the “deconstruction” fags are more into cultural studies, genre studies and all that hocus-pocus and only then can it be considered deep and worthy unless it has too many pantyshots when it’s beyond salvation unless it was ironic, hey! Suddenly our cute heroines start talking about probability distributions, random samples, variance, the law of weak numbers and what not xDD all that (scary) stuff!

If there’s one thing I’ve learned from Upotte is that assault rifles also masturbate.

Now that the Spring 2012 season has been going on for about a month, I think it will be nice to devote a few posts this week to sharing my impressions about the shows I’m watching. It’s become difficult to me to write a post about every single episode more than because of a lack of time, because it’s often difficult to find something meaningful to say at all. For example, when I started blogging I would summarize the episode and then give my impressions. But summarizing an episode has no actual meaning when everybody has probably seen or will probably see the episode. As for giving my opinion I think this is precisely the better way to do it: every month or so, I will give my impressions, rather than after just one episode, when sometimes the most I can say is “it was really funny” or “it was kinda boring”, lacking any perspective. After all, over time, my blog has become more like a place to share thoughts and maybe comment a little, rather than trying to be a reference for people to know whether something is worth watching or not. That is not my objective, I have no talent as a critic –you know my dislike of criticism or saying anything negative about a show, so this is probably the best way to talk about anime!

Anyaway! Nyaruko-san is my favorite show of the season, no doubt about it. It’s precisely the type of whacky, light-hearted show I love, the type of show which made me addicted to anime. Apart from the joy of hearing Asumi Kana’s hyperactive voice acting (to the level of voice pr0n!), Nyaruko is just awesome. You never know what she’s going to say next, but you know you are going to end up laughing or just with a WTF face. Hell, from what I’ve read, I’m sure Lovecraft would have a heart attack if he came back to life and saw his characters turned into moe otaku not-too-evil deities, but as far as I’m concerned, this is a great anime. Best of 2012? Well, Yuru Yuri is having a second season too, so it will be a tough opponent, but I’m pretty sure that Nyaruko-san will end up within my three favorite animes of the year.
