Another streak of no posts, because I dunno what to post. Oh, so, i had talked lots bout figures, nendos, Gunpla, now let's head over to Anime instead. It's spring season anime. So, which anime are you following weekly? For me, i have lots of anime i need to download every week. My friend saw my list of anime that I'm downloading weekly and commented: "your laptop is gonna go boom soon". LOL

So, as you can see, a long list. This post is just to highlight a few anime i would like to recommend, not all the ones i listed. First, TP Sakura/Time Paladin Sakura. More lolipedo awesomeness, and I'm the first to upload this opening in Youtube. Watch and decide whether it's in your watch list. =)



Next, i believe the anime 30-sai no Hoken Taiiku is a must watch i suppose? Judging how funny it is. It is a waste the episodes are pretty short. Basically, a sex god trying to help a 30 year old salary man ends his single days and ultimately lose his virginity.



For the anime C: The Money of Soul and Possibility Control, it's unique in a way. It's the first time i watch an anime which displays our materialistic way of life and how important money is, and what people are willing to go in order to get money. This anime has some Jigoku Shoujo feel, which involves a contract with an underworld and it is related to money issues. Watch to know the story, i won't spoil you.



Deadman Wonderland, as i can say, it may be the successor of High School of The Dead for being the latest blood and gore anime. If you have a weak heart, don;t watch, but the first episode gave me a good impression. Adapted from the manga, it has a unique plot as well, partially about life in a private jail, where the protagonist ended up in after being accused of mass murder of his classmates. Oh, and there are more than just Jails, watch to know more.



Unlike the above 3 animes, Dog Days is not original. In fact, the first feeling you get when you watch it, some Nanoha nostalgia feeling is there, probably due to similar art, fantasy setting, magic power and theme song is by none other than Mizuki Nana, and oh, yes, some Zero no Tsukaima elements as well. If you have watched the theatrical movie "Cats and Dogs" before (there are 2 movies), well, this anime = Nanoha + Cats and Dogs. Curious? Watch it then. Not bad at all.



Hidan no Aria, another anime which is also not original, but i can guarantee you, one of the best animes this season, and i rank it in the top 3. Which is better than which, wait till the anime ends for judging. Do you need a reason to watch this anime?
You get Twin tail loli Tsundere who is jealous of others having big boobs because she wears only an A-cup bra,  and voiced by none other than Tsundere queen Kugimiya Rie (Louise - Zero no Tsukaima; Shana). And, to make things better, slow-mo shooting action like High School of The Dead rendered in 3D-ish graphics, with theme song by May'n. Need more reasons now? About a school that trains students as mercenaries of some sort, who carries guns and blades to school, for good reasons - combating criminals.



Oretachi ni Tsubasa wa Nai, officially the most perverted/ecchi anime of the season, but still lesser compared to Winter Season's infamous Yosuga no Sora, since Ishihara's anti-ecchi law came into effect, and ecchi scenes MUST be censored. = Oh, 30-sai had sex elements that serve as jokes, this anime, on the other hand, had these elements not merely as jokes, but also for fan service. Adapted from an eroge by Navel, it has awesome theme by Misato Aki. However, the eroge version of theme song is better than the anime one, for me.



Steins Gate, science fiction, time travel, time machine concepts, Deja vu scenarios, mad scientists, and prodigies. Sounds interesting enough? Also the best 3 spring season anime to me. It may sound like some science fiction novel, but it certainly makes you wait impatiently for the next episode, great.



Kami Nomi no Shiru Sekai, or known as The World God Only Knows, now gets a season 2 treatment. If you haven't watched, you must. Start from season 1. A guy who is fully engrossed in eroge games and declares himself able to conquer any girls (in 2D of course), is being given tasks to conquer real girls (which he has no skills, and rely only on experience in eroge games) for some reason which it's better for you to watch to know it rather than me telling you here.



So, which anime are you following currently? Or, are you the type who doesn't follow new animes episode by episode till the full series has been released?
