Flavor: Mild

Alright, this’ll be the last show I’m gonna be following this season. Maybe I just have bad taste or something, but everything else is crap in my eyes. I mean, Sekirei seemed kinda interesting, but all the boobs and fanservice completely ruined it for me. Someday’s Dreamers is okay, but I don’t really have the patience for a slice-of-life series like that one. Natsume Yuujin-Chou’s first episode bored me to death. Kohime Musou is one MAN too short for me to actually be able to enjoy it. I can’t watch any of the sequels from this summer because I never saw their respective previous seasons. And Blade of the Immortal… um, lol Bee Train.

Now, I’m not saying this show looks any better than everything I’ve mentioned so far, though. In fact, I thought the first episode was kinda dull and silly, so I just skimmed through it. The second episode wasn’t any better, but at least it doesn’t really seem like after this it could get any worse than what it is now. Besides, being a videogamer myself, I’m already used to seeing all these generic/almost ridiculous kind of plots now.

And, yeah, the protagonist is pretty much of the “useless male lead” type, but every other anime has one of these nowadays, so no surprises here. Apparently, everybody now prefers to leave the spotlight to the heroines rather than the guys, and nobody wants to see GAR action anymore. Boo.

Also, I won’t bother with the DS game… unless I end up enjoying the anime a lot. When is that thing coming out anyways?
