Winter 2012 Highlights

Well the winter season is almost over, with one episode left for most shows, so I wanna share a few thoughts about it. All in all it’s been a decent one. I’ve followed 11 shows, which must be a little above my average, and although I did really like many of the shows, I feel I’ve seen stronger seasons. Apart from the ecchi anime draught in recent seasons, perhaps what I have missed the most is pure romantic comedy shows (such as Mayo Chiki, Hidan No Aria or MM, to mention a few), but we had a very decent romance anime instead, Ano Natsu, and these are also hard to come by. Also many comedies, which is always welcome, such as Kill Me Baby, Danshi Koukousei and Milky Holmes.

So let’s see my top 3, the revelations (the animes that I had overlooked or which turned out to be better than I expected) and, unfortunately, also the flops (not necessarily animes I didn’t like, but rather from which I expected more, or something different).

Winter 2012 Impressions

With the 2012 Winter season in its last month, I’d like to briefly comment on each of the animes I’m watching –and enjoying! I don’t think I’ve been disappointed by any anime I started this season, which is a good sign. Notice this is not a ranking, I’m not too comfortable with rankings and very often the latest episode so watched or what moved you the most will just affect the ranking, so it’s better to just comment on my overall impressions.

All in all, it’s a reasonably good season. I’m watching a lot of series, there are many comedies –which I really like-, some romance too, ecchi too, and the only genre I might miss is some classic romantic comedy.

Amagami SS+ – First impressions

It’s always a nice sensation when you re-encounter an anime you liked, especially when it’s a second season. Hearing the background music again, seeing the heroes and heroines again, that’s pretty nice. It may not look like it but it’s been already a year since the first season, although in my case, thanks to the drama CDs which I’ve listened to regularly (I listen to all my Drama CDs in shuffle mode on my iPod), Amagami has been really present.

New Year’s Anime Countdown – #5 Amagami SS

I intended to write the second part of my “Top 2010 anime” but Chison suggested doing something more interesting on the forums: a New Years countdown. In principle it’s something you were supposed to do during the last 10 days of the year, but since I already wrote my #10-#6 ranking, I’m joining the initiative now. By the way, you will have noticed I haven’t updated the blog as often as I usually do. I’m terribly sorry but last week was a very busy week for me. Things will be back to normal now.

Amagami SS – 23

Being behind schedule, Ayatsuji and Junichi decide to get some classmates to help, but soon it leads to rumors and frictions, until Ayatsuji explodes in front of everyone. Later, as she burns her notebook, she confesses to Junichi, and they kiss. However, the girls she had trouble with stop helping, which endangers the preparations for the festival, so Ayatsuji goes as far as to humbly apologize to them. The proud Ayatsuji, humble? To Junichi’s absolute astonishment, she claims to be a different girl to the one who slapped him the night before.

Amagami SS – 22

“Ayatsuji-san is a great person and has nothing to hide” And she’s probably a great girl, but Junichi gets to know that she’s far from being just a serious, dependable, nice class rep. And what was written on that notebook? And is there anything wrong with her sister? The only thing we know for sure is that she’s starting to like him.

Last year, Junichi missed out on the Founder’s Festival so this year he volunteers to help Ayatsuji Tsukasa who is in charge of the preparations. Everything seems to be going relatively smoothly with the dependable Ayatsuji. But when they meet her sister Yukari, she is cold towards her, and the following day, when Junichi finds and reads her notebook, which she had dropped, she suddenly grabs him by the tie.
