New Manga!

So recently i've become to love Manga, thanks to Kuroshitsuji, that i blasted through in a few days. It made me want to read more and more. Here is a small list of what i'm reading at the moment.

Apocalypse no Toride


One word: Zombies! As a huge fan of anything zombie i find this manga rather appealing. It's quite new, this year, and so far only 7 chapters long.

Frightening, compelling with a whole lot of suspense  You don't wanna give this a miss. Not recommended for our younger audience though.. 

Deadman Wonderland


Being a fan of the Anime i thought i would continue with reading this. The story goes on in the prison of Deadman Wonderland. Will Ganta and Shiro ever escape?

Over 50 chapters and counting. Gory as ever and still just as good.

Gantz

If you know me you will know this is one of my favourite Animes. I decided to read this because the Anime just stops, it never really did have a proper ending.

The Manga continues with more aliens, more tense bits than ever before and with around 350 chapters, you can't stop reading it.

Just one word of advice, this Manga has lots of blood and violence, it's rather disturbing so if you don't like that stuff just give it a miss.

Psyren

Now this one i bought the first volume for my last birthday, not really knowing what it was or if it was good. I don't regret that at all, in fact it was one of the best buys i ever made with Manga.

The story is definitely unique and from what i've seen extremely popular. I'm not surprised! It's well worth a read no matter what genre of Manga you prefer.

145 chapters.

Blame!

This Manga is rather strange but good nonetheless. 

In a post-apocalyptic world way way underground. Fighting with cyborgs and strange creatures. With not much dialogue too, it's still amazing.

The scenery, the eeriness... just creepy. But i still will recommend this if you want a change of pace.

Finished with 66 chapters.

Kuroshitsuji

Last of all my number one favourite, Kuroshitsuji (Black Butler). I seriously can't get enough of this Manga, just like its Anime counterpart it's amazing!

The only downside i have with it is that Grell should be in it a bit more *_*.

Still this is in my opinion the best Manga/Anime out there. 76 chapters and counting! :3

Kuroshitsuji (Black Butler) S2

my Grell <3

After finishing the first season i rushed to the second! Also watching all the OVAs, both the musicals (amazing by the way) and starting the manga! I seriously can't get enough of this Anime.    
It is now my one and only number one...

The story is set not long after the events of season one, which i shouldn't tell you in case you have yet to see it.

Black butler info here.

With the same lovable characters, especially my Grell *fangirl drool*, and a couple new, it is just enjoyable, amazing in fact  It's hard to come across Anime nowadays being this good.

I do suggest watching the OVAs and musicals too, believe me everything to do with Kuroshitsuji is amazing... i do hope they make more seasons and hopefully some movies. :3

Again... i fricking love this Anime... don't miss it, it's worth every second of your time! :)

*droool*.... 

Kuroshitsuji (Black Butler) S1

Took me a little while to get into this but i absolutely loved it after that.

The Black Butler, Sebastian, a demon and master to the Earl Ciel Phantomhive. Set in olden England, Ciel and Sebastian solve crimes, mostly the supernatural ones. Running into all sorts of people from Shinigamis (Death Gods) to Ghosts.

I won't spoil the story for you, all i can say is watch it for yourself and you won't be disappointed. :3

All the characters have lovable personalities. My favourite being Grell (hot in a strange way :3) and of course Sebastian himself...

Some series do deserve to go on and this is one of them. On to season 2 i go!

Why are you still here??... go watch!

grell and sebby <3

Bakuman (Season 1)

This series is totally fantastic! The story gripped me from the very first episode and after having a huge marathon today of about 10 episodes i managed to finish it.

The story is about two young boys who want to become mangakas (manga writers). Mashiro, who has been drawing ever since he was little, with his uncle who was a mangaka, and Takaki, boy genius and story writer.

Mashiro, who has a crush on Azuki, promises her that if they become famous and produce an anime he will marry her and so starts their dream. More here.

Everything is brilliant about this anime, the art, the story, the characters... i've already got season 2 waiting for me and i can't wait to see what happens next.

I think anyone at any age will enjoy this. It may be popular but it's also extremely well written (if only all manga/anime was like that >.<). You will begin to understand the process of a manga and how Shounen Jump in particular works. All in all interesting!!! :3

My Top 10 Anime Openings...

The opening track to an Anime sells it to you, gives it an advantage and ultimately sticks in your head! These are my top 10 anime openings, not in any order... but all of them are awesome.

Death Note

Deadman Wonderland

Elfen Lied

Hellsing

Ergo Proxy

Mirai Nikki

Soul Eater

Blood+

Highschool of the Dead

Black Jack (ova)

I do have a whole lot more to add to this list but i figured that these stood out as pure awesomeness. Arigato! :3

Soul Eater

Another of my favourites. It's just amazing. Couldn't stop watching it!

Soul Eater is set at Death Weapon Meister Academy Shinigami Buki Shokunin Senmon Gakkō (Shibusen) for short—located in the fictional Death City in Nevada, United States. The school is run by Shinigami, also known as Death, as a training facility for humans with the ability to transform into weapons, as well as the wielders of those weapons, called meisters. 

Attending this school are meister Maka Albarn and her scythe partner Soul Eater; ninja Black Star and his partner Tsubaki Nakatsukasa, who can turn into a variety of different weapons such as a kusarigama, shuriken, and ninjatō; and Shinigami's son Death the Kid and his pistol partners Liz and Patty Thompson. The goal of the school's meister students is to have their weapons defeat and absorb the souls of 99 evil humans and one witch, which will dramatically increase the power of the given weapon and turn them into "death scythes", weapons capable of being used by Shinigami. More.

It really is the best of the 'popular' ones. The characters, the story, everything will make you love it. It's all you really need in an anime! I recommend this for all ages and believe me you will enjoy it much more than Naruto or One Piece.  10/10

Baka!

Excalibur - Soul Eater

For the past week now, i have been watching a lot of different Anime. Since i'm not going to finish them any time soon, being they're of course quite long, i thought i would share some thoughts.

Also i was thinking that if i had 100 minions (members) on this blog i might do something special. But that's still looking grim for the time being.






Moving on...

Apart from trying to keep up with Anime that i've long since started [Full metal Alchemist, GTO, Blood+, Ao No Exorcist etc.] i've added a few more to my ever growing list!

Guilty Crown

Only watched a few episodes so far but it does seem intriguing. 

On Christmas Eve, 2029, the unidentified "Apocalypse Virus" spreads and plunges Japan into a state of emergency in a chaos known as the "Lost Christmas" incident. An international organization known as the GHQ intervenes with martial law and restores order to Japan at the cost of its independence.

Soul Eater

Almost finished this one. Forget One Piece and Naruto, this one is far superior. The story is amazing the characters are loveable and you will always be on the edge of your seat either with laughter or desperation.

Soul Eater is set at Death Weapon Meister Academy (Shibusen) for short—located in the fictional Death City.The school is run by Shinigami, also known as Death, as a training facility for humans with the ability to transform into weapons, as well as the wielders of those weapons, called technicians.  

Last of all an Anime that i underrated and i hate myself for that. But after giving it a go again it seriously surprised me. Word of advice: don't give up so easily!

Hellsing Ultimate

After watching a few more episodes i realised that i wasn't wasting my time. This is probably the best horror Anime out there. Vampires vs Nazis vs Priests = pure epicness, and of course Alucard being sexy and awesome as ever!

It might not be as brilliant as the Manga or the earlier series but still all i can say is wow...


Hellsing review.

Black Jack

Black Jack, worlds most famous unlicensed doctor and the best surgeon around. Imagine House but a hell of a lot better. This OVA is one of my all time favourites!

The original Manga is dated back from 1973. Since then three different Anime series and a few movies, not to mention there's a new manga in process.

First off i started with the OVA (1993) which is 12 episodes long, the last two only recently released. 

Black Jack and his assistant Pinoko fly all over the world operating on patients with strange diseases that most doctors would have no clue. Each episode is its own story. The last two episodes are especially good with updated animation and colour and the story behind Pinoko.

Always on the edge of your seat, Black Jack will never cease to amaze you. This is one Anime you cannot miss!

Accel World

I waited so long for this one and believe me it was worth the wait!


In the year 2046, Neuro-synchronization, a technology system that allows humans to manipulate their five senses, has become widespread to the point where people can access the Internet and enter virtual worlds through a device known as a Neuro-Linker. Haruyuki "Haru" Arita is a short, fat boy who has low-self esteem due to constant bullying. To escape the torment of real life, he logs in to the school's virtual world network where he plays squash alone and always gets the highest score.


One day, Haru attracts the attention of the Student Council Vice-President "Kuroyukihime" who offers him Brain Burst, a secret program which allows a person to make time appear to stand still in their surroundings by "accelerating" their brainwaves in the real world. More here.


As a big fan of gaming the story just blew me away. Amazing art, music.. the lot and so unique too. It can get a little frustrating at times but as a whole this is easily overlooked. I would recommend this to all Anime watchers no matter their age or likes. Trust me you wont regret it!
