Anime blogging is like war. No seasonal
plan survives contact with reality. I planned on watching God Eater (that way I could perfectly fantasy theme this block of shows) by now but I was able to watch three at least somewhat interesting
shows. They may not be for everybody but at least they aren't
stinkers like a couple of shows this season. Besides I think I am out of monster puns already.
Overlord
Momonga is the last member of his guild
to stay online when the MMO game he likes goes offline. However
something strange happens, he remains in the game and the npcs start
gaining personalities.
This show takes a very different tack
to it than other shows of it's theme given the main character's
social isolation. This could be very good or not but here is to
hoping.
Chaos Dragon
The island of Namul has been mostly
conquered by two other kingdoms. However there is a band of
adventurers chosen by destiny and the guardian dragons who might just
change things.
This show is reported an adaptation of
a rpg played by some famous creators. However the first episode is
mostly the country is conquered and some kid gets superpowers with
some hints of a more involved plot down the line.
Ranpo Kittan Game of Lapace
A young man wakes up to see his teacher
has been murdered and a bloody hacksaw in his hand. Questioning this
leads him to a teenage detective.
This show looks like it could be a
series of short stories, from the genre (mystery) and episode title.
I was really taken aback by the directing in this show and would
recommend it to more artsy types of anime fans.
