Actually this one will be quite difficult to sub because of all the shougi games that they will have in it. That may be one of the reasons why no one is planning to sub this, plus the fact that the cast isn't particularly famous or anything. Though perhaps when it airs someone might like it enough t...

I actually was not looking forward to it until i saw waratte iitomo. The cast was so vibrant and somehow it reminds me of the vibe that the nodame cast had. I am really interested in watching it as it is also a manga adaption that seems really interesting. I expect to see passable acting that is off...

I think Maki would make a horrible eun chan. She is perfect for Mizuki because Mizuki was very much a feminine girl and Maki is very like Mizuki in looks and in character. But Eun Chan is a complete tomboy and i can't imagine maki in that. I don't think Maki could pull it off. Besides, she's too pre...

I don't think everyone will accept her at the end. I want to know the reason behind the four photos that she has in her wardrobe. I think that they had something to do with her father's death and i think that once her identity is exposed- that she is Yajima rather than usagi- things are going to get...

I did check out Bara. I watched three episodes before i decided whilst it was not bad, it wasn't that great either. The main thing i have against Bara is that the story feels like its trying to hard to be mysterious and dramatic. I know Koshonin also has moments like this, but i forgive it because i...

I love it. Its clearly the best series this entire season. I've just started watching it and am up to the fourth episode. Usagi Reiko is a strong, independent woman who knows what she wants and is strong enough to work in a male dominated job. She is treated like crap but she is strong enough to car...

But its a great. The actor who plays the suicidal main character is very good. He's great as a pusho...

I think Mao's training in Hanaikusai really helped her in here because she moved so gracefully in all her costumes. I mean when she is in full attire, she's got on like 10 layers and she manages to move so gracefully. Even her fighting costume that she wears in the palace when she practices is so ba...

i started off with anime because there is a wider variety of genres to choose from and a large amount has been subbed. If you pick a kids anime, then there are less hard words to sort through. I would suggest anything from Studio Ghibli since the main characters are children and they are really nice...

I really liked the problem in this episode....

I don't like the direction the show is heading in, but I am really starting to like the characters. I like Ayase's Hotaru and Fujiki...

You know, I actually think that Michiko is a sweet person. I was watching episode 2 again: She purposely stayed with Hiroshi the entire time until his dad came home so that he wouldn't be by himself. True, she was a demon tutor to him, but she stayed with him the entire time. I wonder why she tutors...

I just watched episode 3. I don't really like it. It seems like the show lost a lot of the 'energy' it has in episode 2 and especially from episode 1. I loved the first ep. I liked the second ep. The third feels kinda listless. I don't even know what type of direction the show is going in now. Needl...

I was afraid that the second episode would be a let down after such an awesome pilot. But it wasn't. In fact, it makes me even more interested to see how Mitsuko will teach Hiroshi and how she will make him pass. Actually, it also makes me want to know more about Mitsuko and her past. I'm pretty sur...

I just watched the first episode and I was really surprised that I liked it. It didn't sound like it would be promising considering I already think Joou no Kyoshitsu is the best anyway and that this would be a rehash. In fact, I think the vibe it gives off is more similar to Haken no Hinkaku, which ...
