I have seen way too many blogs as of late that have been hating on the upcoming anime Iron Man and so I decided to cut it some slack and think about the positive of it all. With that said, I have put myself in a mind set that I will be the unofficial supporter until I can judge it for myself.
really think that Iron Man can be very interesting depending on how they approach the storyline. If we take a look at the Hollywood movie, I do not think it is too hard to admit that it was quite awesome. Of course, it probably was mostly because of Robert Downey Jr, but we can’t disregard the fact that the mix between Marvel and Madhouse could create a character that is just as charismatic. If we just focus on Marvel’s work, their movies are never beautifully scripted, but they have always ensured an entertaining time. As for Madhouse, they have even dealt with this type of genre and the characters in them. Take a look at Casshern for an example…Similarish premises and Casshern turned out to be a pretty good series. By working with Madhouse, it should in theory result with:
-An entertaining show
-Good Animation
-Great Action Scenes
-Possibility of charming characters
In the trailer alone we can see 2 out of the 4 possible reasons to how this could be an awesome show so if people were to give it a chance, maybe it will fit all the criteria I hope it will. With that, until I actually see and judge the series for myself, I will be supporting it and encouraging more people to give it a chance. I hope I have created some sort of change of heart with a few. I do not expect the appeal of Iron Man to be for everyone because not everyone even likes Marvel at any extent, but if you like action series then I would imagine you should look no further for your action fix with the spring lineup!
Nothing like a good commercial holiday if I do say so myself. Considering I have not posted much in a while, I decided to go with the easy way out of that by making this post. I’ve also added my top five favourite romance animes that are not necessarily the most well done of all I have seen, but really represent love the best. So whether you plan on doing something fun today or just pretending it this day does not exist, I still wish you all the best. So to conclude, here is my list of top 5 romance animes:
Well with the month of love in the air, I figured it would be cool to make a list of eight mangas that I like that I think people should check out this month if they are in the mood to read some good romance mangas. Of course, most of my choices for recommendations are pretty obvious, but sometimes people ignore the obvious series. Sometime within this week I also plan to make my list of Animes to watch to celebrate the month. Why eight you may ask? Well I figured why not. So I hope you somewhat like the recommendations! (and yes, they are in some sort of order) Read the rest of this entry »
The reason why i decided to make a banner update on this particular day, was because I felt it appropriate seeing as today is the one year anniversary of me joining Kokidokom and finally moving away from Wordpress. Originally, I wrote like 600 words celebrating that fact, but I decided against it in the end and would rather keep it simple with the fact that I am happy that I have made it through another year of blogging and am extremely thankful to my regulars and everyone else who has kept me writing for this blog.
In terms of the banners I’ve made this time around, I decided to go with all the banners that I’ve always wanted to make. I do not know why I never really just made them, but many of the images I want to use even go back to the times at wordpress, but finally I have created the banners I’ve always wanted! I am actually really happy with the result of them because of that….They do all seem a little eclectic, but I think it sort of works. My personal favourite of the bunch is the Yotsuba banner. I don’t know why I don’t talk about Yotsuba&! much at all at this blog considering I love Yotsuba!
I will definitely be changing the gif. image on the side as soon as I can since saying “Happy Holidays” is a bit in the past now, but I just need some time to think about what I am going to replace with it. Anyway, I hope you like the banners!
