Back in October, I gave you my first impressions on Chaos; Head. It looked very promising and somewhat lived up partly to my expectations. This blurb is going to be short because I don’t plan on revealing any of the plot-lines, you can check out my first impressions linked up here instead for a part of this.

So here are a few thoughts about the anime now that it’s over and about the visual novel game that inspired the anime.

Though the story of Hajime no Ippo isn’t the most complex one out there, it definitely makes up with intense, badass boxing matches, and awesome characters. When I saw the DS game was released, I had to try it out. What I got was… a mixed bag really.

Is this game a knockdown or a letdown? Well, that’s what I’m here to tell you. Or at least as much as I can considering my complete lack of japanese knowledge.

I just finished watching the first episode of One Outs, and I just HAD to come and make a post here.

One Outs is made by MadHouse and the same team who created badass anime series Akagi and Kaiji. Of course when I learned that that team was making a new series (this time, from what i understand, it’s not based off a manga like Akagi and Kaiji), I was really anxious to see what they were gonna do. When I saw it was a baseball anime, I wasn’t too sure about it, but just based on the people who are making it I still decided to give it a chance.

So is it any good? Let’s check it out

Hey there readers, Kyolux here, after almost two weeks without posting, back into writing action with a review of Chaos: Head’s first episode.

What does Chaos: Head, a Visual Novel game adaptation, has in store for us? I'm looking forward to know!

This series came out of nowhere for me. I’ve only seen one episode so far, but boy am I sucked in this one. For those that loved either Higurashi no naku koro ni (When they Cry in English) or Welcome to the NHK, well, you’re in for a somewhat mix of both of these, or so it seems from this first episode.

The main character, Takumi Nishijou, while not an hikikomori (someone who avoid social contacts and only steps outside to grab food at the convenience store) nor a NEET (Someone who’s not in school, nor in any job and isn’t looking for one either), but it could be as if, since he makes sure he can get through school with the minimum effort needed. And that’s pretty much where his social activities stop. Oh, did I mention all he does is play an mmorpg?

You can find a very good preview of a lot of the upcoming anime series on here.

Now begs the question, what to watch? I’m trying to keep it low for now, but I’ll update with what I think looks interesting in a bit.

So in the end, a lot of things looks too good to pass on.
