Aliens and… FORBIDDEN LOVE?!

Heyoooo!! So, I just finished watching “Ano Natsu de Matteru” (Waiting in the Summer) and I was really surprised  about how the anime turned out! Well… Sort of…

First of all, Waiting in the Summer is about an alien girl who crash lands on earth and unintentionally  injures/”kills” a boy named Kaito. Ichika, the alien girl transfers nano-machines to Kaito through a kiss and saves him without his knowledge.  The next day Kaito sees Ichika at school and felt some sort of attraction towards her, but he doesn’t remember anything because when he woke up he was at home after the incident. Since she has no place to stay (because she’s an alien) Kaito joking invites Ichika to live with him in which she agrees to Kaito’s surprise. Well… You can sort of imagine what goes on from there and if you can’t then watch the anime! 😛

This anime might sound familiar to you oldies out there because this anime is created by the same people who made Onegai Teacher and Onegai Twins.(Please Teacher/Twins) Which also had an alien character in it which was the love interest of the main character in Onegai Teacher. However, this isn’t the only thing that was surprising to me because I also felt an AnoHana kind of vibe coming out of this anime. I don’t actually know why though because they aren’t really all that similar. It might have something to do with the complicated relationships and a type of “forbidden love” that a couple aren’t supposed to have. I mean… Dating a ghost isn’t that much from dating an Alien right? *cough* Okay never mind… However, AnoHana was a lot sadder compared to Waiting in the Summer because well… I’ll let you find out for yourself.

Overall, I enjoyed Waiting in the Summer and I do recommend it for those who are interested in complicated love stories that aren’t TOO shallow. However, I feel that if they didn’t put in that last bit the ending would be a lot more meaningful, but that’s just my own opinion! XD I’ll give this anime an 8/10 for nostalgia’s sake and for a good love story sake!

And before I go… There are also some other animes I wanted to write about (Mayo Chiki), but since I just finished watching this I wrote about it!

That’s it for today guys! I’ll try to get the other guys to write, but they are too busy derping in the summer… (See what I did there 😉 )

FATE N SUMMER!

HEYOOOO!!!!! Holy crap! It’s been over a month since the last post and ya… We’ve been pretty busy *cough* (lazy) ever since summer began, but being the “leader” here at Void.Canvas I believe it is my responsibility to start writing again and so here I am!!! 😀

Soooo… I’ve seen quite a few “old” animes lately and I actually just finished re-watching Cowboy Bebop yesterday. However, I really want to talk about the Fate series today because I feel that there are several things that I should talk about. For those of you who don’t know, the Fate series (Fate/Zero n Fate/Stay Night are the animes that are released for this series so far) is about something called the “Holy Grail War” in which 7 masters are chosen and they summon their servants to fight for the Holy Grail which is said to grant any wish. Now, that’s just a VERY brief summary  of what it’s about and I really encourage you to watch Fate Stay Night, but in my opinion I think that Fate/Zero is the true master piece in the series. Even though the series isn’t finished yet, I can personally connect to the characters Fate/Zero more and I think the overall story is better and more enticing. Both of the series have the same classes of servants and they technically have the same “names”, but it really changed my view on all the characters.

For example… In Fate Stay Night my servant rankings look a little something like this:

– Saber

– Archer

– Assassin

– Rider

– Lancer

– Caster

– Berserker

BUTTTT in Fate/Zero it goes something like this:

– Berserker

– Saber

– Lancer

– Archer

– Rider

– Caster

– Assassin

Fate/Zero just did an overall better job and made unimportant characters seem more important and loveable while in Fate/Stay Night the characters that didn’t get enough screen time were extremely downplayed and easily forgotten. However, I haven’t really played the game for Fate/Stay Night yet so I will probably get more background information on the characters in Fate/Stay Night after… But that’s for another post!

WELL… ONTO ANOTHER TOPIC! It’s summer so you can’t really blame us lazy people *cough* Jampo… To not post anything and I will try to post a frequently as possible, but I am currently working on a few side projects so that make cut into my time to post. However, let me tell you that I’m currently trying to write my own “light novel” kind of thing, but it’s obviously gonna be full of errors and unprofessional XD I only do it for fun and as you can see… My writing isn’t very good >_< Anyway, I’ll be sure to show you guys once I have a final draft of it and yeahhhh… That’s it for today! 🙂
