You won't know what I chose to do just waiting here. So let's start~~!

30 Day Anime Challenge {Day #17 Favorite Anime Weapon}~!

Hey Guys~!

Once again if I watched action anime, this would be easy. Today we're talking about anime weapons, and I do have a favorite which isn't from Fairy Tail. You guys should be proud of me. I will say that the reason this is my favorite is more because of the character, but I do love the weapon none the less. So let's start~~!

30 Day Anime Challenge {Day #16 Favorite Anime Attack}~!

Hey Guys~!

It is time for Day #16 of the challenge and the question is, 'What is your favorite anime attack?' I think I mentioned before that I don't watch a lot of action anime, so I didn't have many attacks to choose from. Therefore this post will probably be the shortest of the entire challenge. Now, if you have read a majority of my anime related posts, you can probably guess where this attack is coming from. So let's start~~!

If the introduction didn't give it away, my favorite anime attack is from Fairy Tail. And from my Fairy Tail related posts, my favorite character is Juvia. So obviously my favorite attack is one of Juvia's. And from a while back, I posted my favorite anime couples, and one of them was Gray and Juvia. If you watch Fairy Tail you may know what attack made it to this list.


Yes, my favorite anime attack is Wings of Love, also know as Gray-sama Love! Basically the reasons I like it are the reasons I already mentioned. So I really don't know what else to talk about. . . I just really like water magic, and if I had one of the elements as a power, it would be water.

I hope you guys enjoyed today's post~! In the comments below, let me know what your favorite anime attack is, I love hearing you guys' opinions. Thank you guys so much for reading and I'll see you at my next post.

30 Day Anime Challenge {Day #15 Anime You Want to See but Haven't Yet}~!

Hey Guys~!

We are half way through our challenge, and I'm already upset cause it feels like it's ending soon
(っ- ‸ – ς) Anyways today I'll be talking about three anime I want to see but haven't watched yet. Hopefully I'll see them this summer and if I do, you'll probably hear about it in a future post. So let's start~~!

Your Lie in April


I have heard about this all over the internet and from my friends, and I just know I'll love this. The plot is about this music prodigy, Kousei Arima, who has a mental breakdown and quits piano after his mother dies. Upon meeting a free spirited violinist, Kaori Miyazono, Kousei begins reentering the music world, and with Kaori's help learns to let go. This anime is described as a romantic tragedy, which is like a double ended sword because it sounds like a feel good anime, but with a depressing ending. I will begin it this month, so we'll see what I think of it.

Sailor Moon Crystal


I am rekindling my love of Sailor Moon, and I've been rewatching the old anime. For some reason I just haven't watched the new version, Sailor Moon Crystal. I hear that it visually looks really nice and that there will be another season coming up, which makes me happy because I hate falling in love with an anime and then finding out there isn't another season in the works. Also I heard that there is less filler in this version, which is nice. 


Another



I am a fan of horror anime, so I'm surprised that I haven't checked this one out, since the plot does interest me. It is about a school, where in 1972, a student died, and afterwards everyone pretended she was still alive. In 1998 a new transfer student comes and notices that everyone is ignoring one girl. Soon after people begin dying in mysterious ways and everyone is trying to solve the mystery. This just sounds right up my alley, and I now want to go watch it~!!

I hope you guys enjoyed today's post~! Leave me a comment sharing what anime you think I should watch, I always love hearing your suggestions. Thank you guys so much for reading and I'll see you at my next post.

30 Day Anime Challenge {Day #14 Most Shocking Moment in an Anime}~!

Hey Guys~!

Today will be a post of spoilers, so if you aren't up to date in the anime Fairy Tail, don't say I didn't warn you. For Day 14 I am sharing what I thought to be the most shocking moment in anime. Again this is my opinion, so if this didn't surprise you, then that's your own opinion. So let's start~~!

In episode 196 of Fairy Tail, my fangirl heart was ripped apart and then shot. If you don't remember what I'm talking about, here's the scene. . .


After seeing this scene I read the manga, which I wasn't doing beforehand. I read through the entire manga, up to this scene, and I died again. I thought this scene was only in the anime to serve as a cliffhanger~!!

And it's worse in the manga~!!



They show the beams ripping him apart~!  Juvia's expressions were practically mine when I saw this and I feel like that made this scene all the more shocking and heartbreaking. In both the anime and manga, this scene is one I will not forget. The reactions of the other characters, mainly Juvia, sold it for me, and really pulled a reaction out of me.

I hope you guys enjoyed today's post~! In the comments, let me know what anime scene you found to be the most shocking or surprising, I love hearing you guys's opinions. Thank you guys so much for reading and I'll see you at my next post.

30 Day Anime Challenge {Day #13 Favorite Shoujo + Shonen Anime}~!

Hey Guys~!

On today's installment of the 30 Day Anime Challenge, I'll be sharing my favorite Shoujo and Shonen anime. If you don't know what that means, generally speaking, Shoujo are anime targeted for a female audience and Shonen are targeted towards a male audience. I know there are exceptions, but I was just giving a basic definition. So let's start~~!

My favorite Shoujo Anime is . . . Kamisama Hajimemashita~!!


This anime is about a girl named Nanami who becomes homeless after her father with a gambling addiction abandons her and she's evicted from their house. By saving a guy from a dog, she ends up living in a shrine with a fox spirit, Tomoe.


I really liked this anime because the cast of characters work really well together. Nanami's relationship with Tomoe and the other male characters in the series. Also this anime combines supernatural elements, comedy, and romance, without ruining the serious moments. I have seen the second season, and I really hope this gets a third.

My favorite Shonen Anime is . . . Fairy Tail~!!


This shouldn't be that much of a surprise. Fairy Tail is about a world where some people are mages, meaning they have magical powers. There are guilds of these mages, and this anime follows the Fairy Tail guild and it's members.


I love this anime for the characters and their relationships. In my favorite couples post, I shared two of my favorite Fairy Tail pairings, Gray x Juvia and Gajeel x Levy. All four of these characters are some of my favorites in the series. Juvia is my favorite character in the show, I just love her personality in contrast with the rest of the cast.  Right now in the anime it is my favorite arc, Tartarous, and I'm happy with how it is so far.

I hope you guys enjoyed today's post. Share your favorite shoujo and shonen anime in the comments below, I love getting new recommendation and hearing about you guys's favorites. Thank you guys so much for reading and I'll see you at my next post.

30 Day Anime Challenge {Day #12 Anime you Wish Went on Forever}~!

Hey Guys~!

Today is Day #12 of the anime challenge and this time I'll be sharing which anime I wish never ended. To me, the happiest moment is when an anime I like gets another season, yet it doesn't happen often with many of my favorites. I have two anime that I wish went on forever/had another season, in no particular order. So let's start~~!

Dangan Ronpa


I know that the fans of the game weren't happy with the anime because of the lack of character development and other plot points that weren't included. I would love for the second game in the Dangan Ronpa series to have an anime adaptation because I think the plot would be really interesting in anime form. I found the plot of the second game to be more complex and I think it would be really cool as an anime. Also I just want to see the Kuzuruyuu and Peko scenes and Trial #3 in anime form. They are some of my favorite scenes in the game and I really want to just see how animators and voice actors would create them.

Ouran High School Host Club


This anime needs another season. The way it ended left me feeling happy and satisfied, but after starting the manga recently, I want this story to be continued. I am in love with where the plot goes after the anime ends, which I won't spoil for anyone who hasn't read it. It's not like Ouran doesn't have a large enough fan base to support another season. Please make another season~!! This was one of my favorite anime, as well as one of the first few anime I watched. Also if it does get another season, it better be dubbed because I miss J Michael Tatum as Kyoya.


I hope you guys enjoyed Day #12's post~! In the comments, share which anime you want to see get another season or just never end, I love hearing you guy's opinions. Thank you guys so much for reading and I'll see you at my next post.

30 Day Anime Challenge {Day #11 Favorite Mecha Anime}~!

Hey Guys~!

Today's installment of our challenge involves me looking into another genre of anime that I don't watch a lot of, Mecha. If you don't know what that means, it's anime robots fighting. I am not into action anime, so I found it hard to answer this. But I stumbled upon this anime, and I am in love with it. So let's start~~!

My favorite Mecha Anime is . . . Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagan~!


To summarize it, it starts with an underground village, with Simon, who while digging finds a strange key. Kamina, another person from Simon's village, dreams of going to the surface. One day a strange robot crashes into their village and a girl, Yoko, comes to defeat it. Simon and Kamina help her win and they leave with her to the surface.


Okay, why do I like this? Honestly I love Yoko as a character. Many people know Yoko because of her body. She is a popular character for her fan service, which has led to Yoko also becoming a popular cosplay.

I enjoy her because of the development her character goes through. I'm not going to spoil everything, but someone important to Yoko dies right after she admits her feelings for them. Seeing her character hide her emotions is honestly heartbreaking because she's such a positive and strong character.


I'm sorry that I didn't write too much for this. As I said, I don't watch a lot of mecha anime, so I didn't really know what to talk about. Anyways I hope you all enjoyed this post. If you have seen a mecha anime that you liked, share it in the comments below. Thank you guys so much for reading and I'll see you at my next post.

30 Day Anime Challange {Day #10 Favorite Fighter Anime}~!

Hey Guys~!

If there is one genre of anime I don't really watch, it is fighting anime. However, Day #10 requires me to choose one, which involved me watching some fighting anime. I didn't want to put Fairy Tail here, since I have talked about it a lot. And I do have something else that I can share. So let's start~~!

Okay, this is kind of specific, but I really have to give this credit for being one of the best arcs I've seen in terms of animation and characters introduced. My favorite fighting anime is the Gun Gale Online arc from the anime Sword Art Online.



Now I'm not a huge fan of the first season of Sword Art Online, so when the second season began, I was hesitant to watch it. However, I was pleasantly impressed with the animation. The environment of the Gun Gale Online world was stunning.




The first season of Sword Art Online had beautiful environments, but it was a fantasy anime. Gun Gale Online has a cyber steam punk style, which is completely different than the original game. However, it was pulled off beautifully.

Okay, onto the character that they introduced in this arc that made me fall in love, Shino/Sinon. Shino is a girl, who after a violent accident in her childhood, has a strong fear of guns. Even if someone makes a finger gun, she begins panicking.



Her friend introduces her to the game Gun Gale Online, and she becomes Sinon, a sniper. Shino hopes that by playing this game, she'll get over hear anxiety. I found Shino to be a really well written, well designed, and relate-able character.

I hope you guys enjoyed this post~! I know I could have talked more about the action scenes, but I really don't pay attention to that when watching an anime. Share your favorite fighting anime in the comments below. Thank you guys so much for reading and I'll see you at my next post.

30 Day Anime Challenge {Day #9 Saddest Anime Scene}~!

Hey Guys~!

Are you all ready to cry, or do you have no soul and never express any emotion~? Anyways today I will be sharing the saddest anime scene. Now if you know me and my taste in anime, it really does vary, however, rarely do I actually cry or get really sad at a scene. There are some exceptions to this, and I will be sharing one with you. So let's start~~!

Okay, this might count more an saddest episode rather than saddest scene, but whatever, this is my blog, and I do whatever I want. Also this is super spoiler filled for the anime Rozen Maiden, so read at your own risk.

The saddest scene comes from Rozen Maiden's second season and it is Hina Ichigo's Death.



Hina Ichigo is a doll who is slowly losing her life. Everyone is trying to make her as happy as possible in her last moments, and in the end is with her friend, Tomoe.

I wasn't a huge fan of Hina, but this scene literally killed me~! Seeing Hina grow up right before our eyes, and then having her life ripped away is shocking. She served as the innocence of the anime, being the youngest of the dolls, and was able to lighten up some of the darker moments. However, the moments where you hear the gears in her body slow down or stop, really made me anxious. Her death was built up to throughout the episode, and even though I knew her death was inevitable, it still made me want to cry. 

I hope you guys enjoyed this post~! Share which anime scene you think are the saddest in the comments below, I'll try my best to comfort you guys. Thank you guys so much for reading and I'll see you at my next post.

30 Day Anime Challenge {Day #8 Most Epic Scene}~!

Hey Guys~!

Today is Day #8 of our challenge, and I'm sharing what I think is the most epic scene. Now for this the factors that went into choosing which scene to put here were awe factor, animation, and/or shock value. Without further adieu, here's what I think is the most epic anime scene. So let's start~~!

Okay, the most epic anime scene, the one with the best animation and the greatest awe factor is . . . When Natsume gets out of the shower in the anime Brother's Conflict, without a shirt on~!


I mean look at those abs. He's so dreamy. Also who doesn't love guys that are in love with their step-sisters~?! Seriously the animators deserve thousands of awards for this scene alone, and just based on this scene, this anime should get another season~!

Just kidding you guys~!! 

Anyway the most epic anime scene, in my opinion, is the fairs wheel scene in Terror in Resonance. I did talk a little bit about this scene in my Day #7 post, top anime couples, so {click here if you haven't read that yet.} I couldn't link the scene with the voices, since it is copy written on YouTube, but if you want to see the actual scene, watch the anime. 



Even re-watching it gives me the same chills I felt when watching this for the first time. Lisa, was kidnapped and used as bait to trap Twelve. He's trying to diffuse the bomb strapped onto her, and she's begging him to escape, all while riding a ferris wheel. 

The entire scene just makes my heart ache. They really do care about each other, but this moment really tests them. When Lisa gives up and starts crying, it's hard not to cry too. You can see the pain in Twelve's eyes and the stakes of the scene really add to this scene. 

The animation is beautiful. The scenery while they look out as well as the scenes that show the entire ferris wheel honestly took my breath away. 

I hope you guys enjoyed today's edition of the 30 Day Anime Challenge~! Share what you think is the most epic anime scene in the comments below, I love hearing your opinions. Thank you guys so much for reading and I'll see you at my next post.

30 Day Anime Challenge {Day #7 Favorite Anime Couple}~!

Hey Guys~!

This is the day I pour my fangirl feels all over my blog. Today I'll be sharing my favorite anime couple. I have millions upon millions of favorite anime couples, also known as OTPs. I had a really hard time trying to choose one, so I chose three of my OTPs, some are ties so I actually have five couples listed . . . They are in no particular order, I love them all equally as much. So let's start~~!

1.) Fakir x Ahiru and Mytho x Rue from Princess Tutu


Okay, I know these are two separate pairings, but they're from the same anime, and I like equally as much. Fakir and Ahiru become adversaries in their quest to protect Mytho, but their plans are different. Fakir wants to keep him sheltered and Ahiru wants to restore his heart. Throughout the anime, they learn to work together and soon fall in love. Their relationship doesn't build up too quickly, and it works amazingly. They will break your heart, but in a good way.


Mytho and Rue were childhood friends. Rue was told she would end up with Mytho, and grew up wanting to be perfect for him. This caused her to believe she had to do everything to keep Mytho only looking at her. As Mytho's heart is being restored, Rue becomes insecure and takes different means to keep Mytho at her side. Through multiple events, I don't want to spoil the ending, they end up together. Honestly I only like this relationship for Rue, cause Mytho doesn't really have a personality.

2.) Twelve x Lisa from Terror in Resonance/Zankyo no Teroru


These two just break my heart, and some people may say they aren't a couple, bu they are to me~! Twelve is part of a terror group called Sphinx. During one of his missions, he meets this girl, Lisa. He offers for her to join them, or he would let her die. She chooses to join them, and as the anime progresses you can see Twelve struggle between his devotion to Sphinx or his feelings for Lisa. The scene where Lisa is trapped in the ferris wheel with a bomb on it, is the scene that really made me love these two together. That scene really tests Twelve and Lisa's relationship, and I was fully invested in seeing the path their relationship took.


3.) Gajeel x Levy and Gray x Juvia from Fairy Tail


Another tie~! Okay I'll start with Gajeel and Levy. Gajeel was assigned by his guild, Phantom Lord, to destroy Fairy Tail, and in doing so injures Levy. Levy was seen as one of the weaker guild members, but at the same time everyone liked her. After the guilds battle, Gajeel joins Fairy Tail. Levy's friends decide to fight him, and he takes every hit without fighting back. Later on, he offers to help train Levy to win a higher ranking in the guild, and their relationship sky rockets from there. The two go through multiple battles where they fight to protect the other. SPOILERS~! They kiss in the manga <3 My fangirl heart died when I saw this page.


Onto my other favorite couple, Gray x Juvia. Juvia was also part of Phantom Lord and was sent to kidnap Lucy. Gray ends up in a fight with Juvia, and she instantly falls in love with him. Seeing how determined he is to save Lucy, Juvia gets jealous In order to keep Gray, she too joins Fairy Tail. These two have more development in the manga, especially the current arc, so I don't want to spoil it too much.  I can say that Gray has done multiple things to protect Juvia, and they have spent a lot of time together.

I hope you guys enjoyed this~! Share some of your favorite anime couples in the comments below, just don't bash each other's favorites. Thank you guys so much for reading and I'll see you at my next post.

30 Day Anime Challenge {Day #6 Most Annoying Anime Character}~!

Hey Guys~!

This post in my 30 Day Anime Challenge will be a bit of a rant. I'll be talking about one of my favorite anime, and I'll be talking about an important character. It's alright if you disagree with my opinion, everyone has their own opinion. So let's start~~!

Okay, I really like the anime Tokyo Ghoul. It's about creatures called ghouls, that are humanoid but they eat humans, that live in Tokyo, that are being hunted down. I love everything about this anime, except for one thing, and that is Kaneki Ken.


Kaneki Ken gets turned into a half ghoul after a date gone wrong. I understand that something like this is traumatizing. If I woke up and I was going insane because I wanted to ear human flesh, yeah I would cry a lot. But I would eventually adapt and get over it.


Kaneki doesn't do this till the last episode of the first season . . .  It takes him twelve episodes to grow a pair and become a ghoul.

Every scene that involved Kaneki being scared, or jumpy, besides the moments in the first episode, made me so annoyed. It's like, dude, get over yourself. You have other ghouls that are helping you and protecting you, the least you could do is learn to fight and help them. Yeah he works at the cafe, but he's incapable of fighting till the last episode.


And it's not like it was built up, like he trained, he literally just has a realization, and in the last three minutes of the anime, he kills a guy.

I felt like I was being played the entire anime. I just wanted some cool action scenes and character development, which I got to see with basically every other character, even the characters that died. And yet Kaneki, our main character, takes forever to develop the same amount as the other characters.

I do still love this anime, I am watching the second season currently, and I heard a third season will be coming out soon. I just need Kaneki to either become a more interesting character, or for the anime to focus on someone else.

 I hope you guys enjoyed Day #6~! Share who you think is the most annoying anime character in the comments below. Thank you guys so much for reading and I'll see you at my next post.

30 Day Anime Challenge {Day #5 Anime Character You are Most Like/Wish You Were}~!

Hey Guys~!

Today I'll be sharing my answer for Day #5 of the Anime Challenge. The question is, which anime character are you most like or which anime character do you wish you were like? I decided to do part one, or the first question. So let's start~~!
For anime character that I am most like, my friends would agree with me on this, is Taiga Aisaka from ToraDora.

First of all, we're both short and are both teased about it constantly. When watching the anime, every joke someone makes about Taiga's height makes me upset too, and I actually have heard similar jokes about me.


Second, I am a bit of a tsundere too. If you don't know what a tsundere is, it just means a character that is really mean till he or she opens up to people they care about. Taiga, throughout the anime, learns to become more open with the other characters. I don't think I'm as fast as Taiga to open up, but I'm working on it.


And third, we both can kick butt. Taiga is super tough, and people don't expect that cause of her height, and people are that way with me too. Like in the first episode when the main guy, Ryuji, bumps into Taiga in the hallway and she punches him in the face. I've done boxing and none of the guys at my gym mess with me after I kicked one of them out of the ring.

I hope you guys enjoyed this post. Please share which anime character you think you are most like or which one you wish you were like in the comments below. Thank you guys so much for reading and I'll see you at my next post.
