Mobile Suit Gundam SEED & Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny
To be honest, this is a series that made Syibrie very interested into robots. To be honest, it is on top of Syibrie's most favorite animes he has ever watched! Despite it being war-themed, there are a lot of aspects that teaches many things about life. A very recommendable series for those who loves to read along the lines about something big that carries an even bigger message to the viewers. For this post, we will be reviewing about two animes. Yes, TWO animes, but can actually be considered as one as the second one is actually the sequel of the first despite not being called as the second season. Thus, we give you.....
Maid Sama!
For our next post, we will be posting about an anime that has caught the hearts of teens that has watched it on Animax. Although it was already popular on that channel, my attention (Syibrie) was only caught when my sister kept bragging about it at home. Well, here goes...
Title: Kaichou wa Maid-sama! a.k.a The President is a Maid!
Mangaka: Hiro Fujiwara
Genre: Romance, Comedy, School, Shoujo
Number of episodes: 26
Period of airing: April 1, 2010 - September 23, 2010
Publisher(s) (of manga) and
Production Company(s): Hakusensha, Tokyopop, J.C.Staff, Geneon Universal Entertainment, TBS, Hakusensha, Half H.P Studio, Sentai Filmworks
Ratings: PG-13 - 7.7/10 (IMDb.com); 8.8/10 (tv.com); 8.34/10 (myanimelist.net)
Synopsis:
Misaki Ayuzawa is the first female student council president at a once-all-boys-turned-co-ed school, Seika High School. She rules the school with a strict discipline demeanor, despised by many of the male students but seen as the "Knight in Shining Armor" by the female students, but she has a secret: she works at a maid cafe due to her coming from a poor family. One day, the popular A-student and notorious heart-breaker Takumi Usui finds out her secret when they accidentally met behind the cafe and thus makes a deal with her to keep it a secret from the school in exchange for spending some time with him.
Our view:
Usui always spontaneously blurts out inappropriate things to tease Misaki and unknowingly, Misaki eventually falls for Usui, which is something that she keeps on denying all the time.
Usui's annoying attitude and oblivious teases often gets Misaki on her nerves, which is something that Usui loves to do :D
Although Misaki has been cold towards him most of the time, but Usui never lets Misaki get hurt or into trouble easily as he's always nearby to save her.
Trivia:
- Episode 9 is a parody of a well-known Japanese tale called "The Island of the Ogres". It's about an old woman and man who find a giant peach flowing down a river one day and when they cut it open, they find a baby. They call the baby Momotaro (Little Peach Boy). Momotaro then grows up and goes on an adventure and meets several friends on the way.
- Notice how the poster's eyes are moving at around 15:25 in episode 5.
- In episode 9,there seem to be a parody of Pokemon:Rescue Team games.
- In episode 11, in about 5:22, notice the the two kids who look like the younger versions of Misaki and Suzuna. Also their another younger versions can also be spotted in episode 26 in about 4:19.
- In episode 24, about 10:45 in, an excerpt from Misaki's image song "Be Myself" plays
