March comes in like a lion : Review


March comes in like a lion is pretty good from all the angles. A light-warmed comedy with awesome animation (shafting) , this anime aims for more matured people. This anime , like really , it took for them 2 weeks to produce 11th episode. They might have some problems but yeah , this anime is airing for a long time now.

Animation and Sound
Before watching this anime , i didn't expect good animations from this , but the animation level has crossed my expectations so high. The mix of 2-D and 3-D animation was so good(Shafting). They did the indoor backgrounds using some 3-D softwares but it looks almost like 2-D so that we can get that anime feel. And some indoor and all the outdoor backgrounds were done by drawing. It was not that good but they managed to pull it off by adding some filters like water reflections and lightings. And all the vehicles were 3-D too (of course). The sound was good but not at its best. The animation style is unique.

Story
The story goes around as a boy , who has been playing shoji (a game more like chess) from his childhood. He is considered a professional player even though he is a high school student. He even missed an exam to play a professional shoji tournament and thus , dropped a year low. He finds hardships in his life since shoji is the only thing he knows , and he tries to live the best out of his life.

Characters
The characters are very unique and well done. Each character are very mysterious and you will find yourself very curious to know about them.

Overall

This anime has a solid story , some comedies with chibis here and there , but i really recommend this anime if you are the one who enjoys slow-paced , luke warmed comedy.And yeah , this anime is not anything about school life even though the Main protagonist is a teenager.

Cheating Craft : Review

Cheating Craft *This review is based on the first five episodes , will be updated later hopefully* With a fancy title , cheating craft has attracted a lot of people to watch it.  This anime is all about the gags which is average and not that funny but if you are expecting a serious growing story plot , you may not get it. Basically in each episodes they have exams on different terrains such as in airplanes, oceans , etc. And dont expect this anime to be realistic since its not. Suddenly a terrain appears, writing exams in -200°C , and more. By far from watching the first 5 episodes , i honestly think this is kinda good. Just for the comedy and well.....action , you can watch this. And dont expect realistic cheating ways which you can use in real life.... haha. Each episodes are 12 min each which is a drawback. And they constantly use chibis here and there which i think its ok. And there seems to be a reason why the main protagonist,  Momei  joined the most...

Nyan koi! - Review Nyan koi! A comedic romantic? Or haremic anime filled with cats. With a humor suitable for all ages , I would definitely recommend this to everyone, but , unfortunately there won't be a season 2 . Read the last section to know why. Lets talk about the anime first. Non-echii fan services , check. Tsundere moments , check. Comedy, check. Story A boy randomly moves around and kicks a can which accidentally hits a cat statue and breaks it. So the boy gets cursed. The curse is , you will turn into a cat if you don't admire and help cats . Also you can understand what cats say. And if someone else comes to know about this curse , the curse will fasted and the other person will get cursed too. So the main protagonist goes around fulfilling requests given by cats. Heard this kind of story somewhere , yeah me too but i just cant remember. Animation For a 2009 anime , nat bad , yeah , not bad *applause*. Good colors , backgrounds were well done. Well done AIC ...
