This concludes the end of the Goddess Arc of the series The World God Only Knows, it was really rather faster than I thought because they really skipped a lot of conquest before starting this arc. I doesn't really care about those because I've read the manga and I would really recommend reading the manga to understand and to be able to know more about the Goddess Arc. But seriously I'm glad I have watch the anime version because seeing it with colors, actions and voices really gives a different feeling.

The ending when Chihiro and Keima was crying for a bit was really the greatest scene for the Goddess Arc in the manga series. I'd say even though its the Goddess Arc Chihiro which was really plain on the previous arcs really have a great boost on this arc which was seriously good stuff even though they called it Goddess arc they still gives effort on giving parts on none Goddess. The thing I didn't like about this was when the Goddess and Vintage battle it was a bit of an easy win well TWGOK is not really an action manga so its really something you'd expect them doing after all.

Well anyways seeing the characters in movements even though there was a lot of cuts for the anime is good stuff. And it was really awesome seeing this end, the ending was a bit sad but that's just should it be because Keima is a gamer making a one route for this would definitely not good. Maybe they will be choosing one  when they wrap things up or just end its like always where Keima picks to be a gamer just like this.

Anyways this is not the end of the series there is still the 'Heart of Jupiter Arc' which is currently ongoing we will probably be seeing a sequel in a year or two.

Rating: 9/10

I just finished 167 chapters(including the 166.5) of the manga Suzuka, and to be honest it was really great. The manga seems first seems to have the characters will be focusing way too much on track and field but this manga didn't they go for a more realistic ending which is really unbelievable they just used the dreams of the characters of being in the nationals or being a professional athletes as stepping stone for a better and more romantic ending. I first thought that they will really be making too much of sports in this manga but instead they really are giving their all for the romance to be more realistic than other manga nowadays which are completely just focusing on fanservices and stuffs that are pretty useless for the plot.

The only thing I didn't like was the fighting and making up of the character which goes all over the series but aside from that it really have a good plot. You will really not expect nothing less from old manga they have more appeal than manga nowadays which doesn't have any sense anymore. Good thing I finished this manga and I really enjoyed it.

Rating: 8.5/10 - Good End, not forced, just perfect.

A second season of the Psycho-Pass anime and a New Movie is announced on their official website just recently. So not just a simple movie but we will also have another TV series this is really something because I was really a big fan of Psycho-Pass when it first aired from October 2012 it was kinda brutal but it was really insanely awesome it ended around mid March with a total of 22 episode if I'm not mistaken.

I knew it haven't ended because the Sibyl System wasn't even destroyed or even changed it logic so they are still being protected by multiple brains that are being preserved by a giant system which calculates how to make people live happier. Whats awesome about this is we will finally know what happened to Kagami and what have become to Akane after all she was the only one with unclouded psycho pass in their team and other of their members died already. Well I really hope to watch this soon.

Chūnibyō demo Koi ga Shitai Season 2 have been announced to air this coming January which is on Winter 2013-2014 Season! This was announced on the screening of Takanashi Rikka • Kai ~Gekijō-ban Chūnibyō demo Koi ga Shitai!~ Movie! I have been dying to watch the sequel because the first season ended just great and I really thought there won't be any more season 2 but it was announced that there would be one and now I never thought its so near to us!

In 3 - 4 Months we would be seeing Chūnibyō demo Koi ga Shitai, the story might be a bit boring than the season 1 because everything was mostly wrapped in the season 1 but I heard that there would be a new character which will be going to our main character which is really what I've been waiting for. The unaired episode also shows that there wasn't really any big progress that happened well all we can do now is wait for it this coming January!

Little Busters! Ecstacy Anime Adaption have been green lit and this was announced on the official website of the Little Busters! series. Little Busters! Ecstacy or Little Busters! EX is an expansion of the game which adds new scenarios and a new character to the series. The website also shows Kanata Futaki, Sasami Sasasegawa and Saya, Tokido(new character) which might be a clue what route the new anime adaption will be going.

I played the first version of Little Busters but haven't really played EX version due to it lacking english translation but now that I've seen this report I will be trying to find the game version of this with english translation probably today they finish translating the game well I would really love to see the story before watching the anime.

An announcement was made that another work for Tamako Market Anime is in the process this announcement was made before the screening of the Movie Takanashi Rikka • Kai ~Gekijō-ban Chūnibyō demo Koi ga Shitai! both of this series are made by Kyoto Animation so there isn't really something to be surprise of..and if I remember correctly the first announcement about Chuunibyou having a sequel was on the final episode of Tamako Market.

Though there isn't any announcement whether it would be another TV Series, Ova or a Movie but most likely if you'll be asking me it would be a TV Series just like Chuunibyou well I didn't hate the TV Series before to be more honest I really likes it but not the the extent of making it part of my favorites. Anyways I really would love to watch this new work, and hopefully it will air soon and also I hope it would be another TV series.

I can't believe they ended it with just 10 episode and not only that there are so many unanswered questions left. This is really what I hate about this kind of anime you'll come to love the story and then they will end it rushly without any explanation, indeed this is one hilarious anime but its not funny how they ended it just like a trash it was a great series and its worth ending in a great way, I know they wanted to end it with a mind set for a sequel but this is just too much.

They didn't answer what happen after Staz's brother revived their Father, Will Bell still continue or just give up about Staz, Will Fuyumi be resurrected as Staz promised. Well there are more question which is completely unanswered, this last episode they just showed Fuyumi's parents giving her in the hands of Staz(not her mother though) and Staz's brother was trying to revive their father which was killed by the current King.

This was the worse ending for this year, and the OVA which is coming soon I highly doubt that will help us with this curiosity we are facing.

Seriously bad end, 7/10.

I just finished reading Air Gear and here is my review, there would be spoilers so watch out. How should I say this it was really a great manga all the way but the ending was a bit lacking and it seems like it was a bit rushed not really what I have thought it would end up with. They did show what will happen when Sora and Ikki faced each other while using their Regalia but seriously it would be better them fighting with it to see a more bad-ass battle and seriously the finale showing each and every character it was seriously lacking they didn't show what Ikki is doing well indeed he was just still playing but they didn't show a bit more of Ringo and Ikki in the ending which was really disappointing.

I would say one thing about the manga I really love the idea about Air Treck it is awesome and I would really want to have one, The art is also awesome, The feeling they put into the manga is boundless they are really doing what they want like putting President Obama in the story and of course those naked woman they keep putting in this action manga, everything was just plain awesome its just the ending seriously it was really lacking passion.

Anyways it would be 8/10 would have been better.

The movie was not really what I have expected I thought it would show some more of Touma and Misaka helping each other but it only gave a glimpse of it nothing really major to mention. But thats not really where it ends the new characters are really awesome and the story is just well thought the back story, characters and finale really connects great which what I really enjoyed in this movie.

Things about Memory lost, Luck, Miracle and Misfortune which connects Touma and Arisa was kinda good especially when Arisa mentioned about her not having any memory about 3 years ago(if I'm not mistaken) which is quite similar to Touma though I was disappointed Touma didn't mention it. Also Shutaura's hatred of music and not believing about Miracle even though the fact about the ending was pretty epic. I won't want to spoil the ending but it was really epic but sad in some way as well which is really disappointing.

Them adding a new genre about music is really a big step but overall I really enjoyed it even though it didn't really gave much impact. Its kinda sad that we won't be seeing Arisa in other series and so is Shutaura because most movie character are disregarded after the movie anyways hopefully we will see Shutaura again and those 3 new trainee that Stiyl have.

Well the movie was really good and I'm really hoping for a third season.

Mikakunin de Shinkōkei or simply Unconfirmed & In-Progress(english name) manga is a four panel type of manga is now announced to have an anime adaption this was officially announced by Manga 4-Koma Palette magazine on their November issue. The plot is quite confusing its about a girl named Kobeni who suddenly got a young brother and then a little sister who is a fiance of that younger brother and from then onward they started living together. The plot is a bit crazy but thats to be expected in a comedy and to top it all of its a 4-Koma manga so without a doubt this would be hilarious.

The sad part about this is its a 4-Koma manga so there is a high chance of it having a short length anime like anime nowadays that is only 2-4 Minutes long. Well depending on its length and the quality of the animation I would watch it so hopefully it would be a 24 minutes anime.

Satsuki Yoshino's Barakamon manga will be getting an anime adaption this was officially announced by Gangan Online web manga magazine. This is yet another slice-of-life comedy genre manga which is about an handsome guy who do calligraphy and when he moved to a countryside his house became a hangout place for children for some reasons. Its kinda absurd just reading the plot but that is just what makes a comedy manga good.

Well hopefully this would have a good plot because most comedy manga doesn't really have decent plots. But I think seeing just the main characters I doesn't think this would have a good plot which I will enjoy though I also think this will be a good pass time which will make me laugh. There is still no official announcement when will the anime adaption air so we will be waiting for further announcement in the next few days.

Maō ga Yachin o Haratte Kurenai or The King of Darkness Doesn't Pay the Rent's sixth volume wraparound jacket band shows a quotes saying  "If I were to adapt this into anime! I would go all out directing the panty shots and not hold back!!!!!!!!!" by an anime director named Tatsuya Nagamine. Though even if he have quoted that the anime is still not really officially announced because as it says 'IF I WERE' so its not really a real official announcement. But if you think about it its really absurd saying a thing about the anime adaption without really a real motive about it. I think the real and official announcement about an anime adaption will be announce real soon or else this kind of announcement is really just a stupid thing to do.

So my conclusion is that the quote left by the anime director is some kind of a round away announcement which just indirectly saying that an anime adaption will soon be announce or something like that. Because as I said it would be meaningless to say something like that in an volume book and why would the author of the book even let a anime director put those in front of his book that is being sold. Well all we can do for now is wait because there is still no official announcement but well as I said it won't be long before we will get one.

This is one unbelievable show I'm not sure if its real or not but I highly think its real because they won't deceive people with this kind of stuff after all. This show shows many kind of people with an incredible ability like having magnetic body, can stay underwater for a long period of time, having a super accurate aiming, and many kinds of dangerous stuff for normal people like us. To be honest if you doesn't see it you'd not believe it they even inspect people with technology and they really prove that those people have incredible body parts that can make those impossible things possible.

What I really enjoyed was the blind man who can see with his mind it was really amazing. He was able to see the computer screen even though he is literally blind and blindfolded at the same time. And he was even able to smash vases in a dark room with his blindfold on not only that he was able to tell what kind of vase it is like pointing out the color and the shape. I'm not sure if its real but seriously if its the real deal I really would love to have that kind of power. There are many other people with different kind of ability every one of them are plainly amazing.

Counting Cars is another show in History Channel which shows a Business about buying, selling, restoring, fixing, modifying and many more about cars. The main man is called Danny or 'The Count' he knows his job well and he really goes crazy when checking cars and buying them for profit. The show is obviously +Scripted but well that makes thing more funny like when someone painted a big Apple in the side of the car which made Danny angry. Other than that the shows looks really cool seeing old cars and their history is really fun. Also when they finally restored an old bad looking car and it will look into a cool and awesome car which will totally look different from the old one is just plain awesome.

I really love seeing those old cars and make them looks new and cool. I really dream of having one of that nowadays cars looks pretty good but old cars have their own charms, they have good history and they look more unique nowadays.

This also reminds me of an old show I really enjoy named 'PIMP MY RIDE' its one of the most coolest car modifying show I've ever watch. Check it out on youtube and you'll be amaze with the changes they make in the cars. And to be honest this is better than Counting Cars but the sad part is it already ended long ago would be great seeing it again on TV.

So the next one in line for the plot is Otorimonogatari in the Monogatari Series: Second Season. Now the official website of Monogatari Series: Second Season have released the second promotional video for Otorimonogatari. Otorimonogatari will feature Nadeko Sengoku the snake girl once again I think she is in deep trouble just seeing the promotional video where Araragi is again full of blood.

As I see on the promotional video I somehow got confuse because did Araragi actually 'I came to kill you' I heard this on 0:47 of the promotional video but I think its a roundabout thing that Araragi is saying. But at the same time Sengoku said 'I hate Koyomi-Onii-chan' now that something there is really something fun going on in this series and I'm dying to watch it now!

By the way Otorimonogatari will be airing tomorrow September 21, and just to remind you it is included in the Monogatari Series: Second Season. So it will be in Episode 12 of the series.

Promotional Video: http://www.monogatari-series.com/2ndseason/movie/otori_pv02.html

Ai Kora is quite an old manga which run from July 6, 2005 to February 6, 2008 with a total of 120 chapters(I actually just saw 119 but it ended there so I guess the 120th is the Omake). The plot is just ridiculous I mean its about a boy who lives in the country side who transfer school to Tokyo just to find girls with PARTS that he likes, if you doesn't understand the parts one its more or less can be called fetish on female parts like eyes, voice etc.

The beginning is also plain ridiculously stupid but it was too funny though if you doesn't have the will to continue because of nothing really happens that much then you'd really dropped this but one thing I would say is its really worth reading until the end. Because as the story continues it became more serious and thing changes more accurately and they do says more reasonable stuffs. The art is indeed not the best but the story is just plain awesome, from the start until the end it will always makes you laugh because there are a lot of unpredictable things that will happen which is really what I likes in a manga.

The ending was as ridiculous as the beginning but it really points out what the manga is about and also with it they really made a great ending which concludes the ending for each and every member of the main cast. I just love how they did with the ending they really made use of every character until the end it was seriously a great run.

I would rate this 8.5/10

I have no regrets for reading this the entire week.
