"I believe I'm entering the realm of insanity, but I'm fine with that." Hello everyone!  Today I bring you another anime (it's not recent, but I really liked it). So, this animation is from 2004 and it's composed of 3 episodes with 45 minutes each. Let's start this, shall we? Plot: The series foccus on Eiri Kurahashi, a college art student that works at an antique shop. One day, he sees the image of a girl in a glass and gets fascinated by it. As time goes by, Eiri finds out who the girl is and why she is there. Apparently she's trapped inside the glass because of a man called Marcello Orlando.  That man killed Cassette and she tells Eiri that he must help her. The story goes on within the physical and mental torture of Eiri after meeting this strange girl. Artwork: As you can see, the detail is present in everything.  All the characters are well made and the first time I saw this anime I was c...

"I make my own decisions, and see them to the very end. I had to find my resolve, so I could remain true to myself." Hello everyone! Today I bring you another anime that I've seen a few years ago. So, this series has 12 episodes with 23 minutes each and its recommended to mature audience only because it has nudity and violence. So, let's start this! Plot:  Saya is a happy girl during the day that loves to sing and spend some time with her father. She is also a student that has a normal life. During night, she is the rural town protector that owns a holly sword to slay the Ancient Ones that hunt, stalk and try to catch human prays. Artwork : This series has some great detail and the way the characters are represented are also very well made. The death scenes are brutal and very grafic, but in a general way, it is a good graphic anime.  I love the colors, the ambiance and the music involved in it. Music: The O...

 ''So how about we become monsters together… and turn this world upside down?'' Hello everyone! So, I'm finally free from my college exams and today I decided to talk about one of the anime series I was skeptical about before I watch it. My opinion changed drastically because I became a huge fan of this series. In fact, besides watching the anime, I've watched all the three movies that were made. I really got stuck to this, I know. So, this series has 12 episodes it was aired in 2011 and the episodes have 24 minutes. Note: I will mention the name of the movies at the end so that you can watch them If you want. So, let's start this! Plot: Kaname Madoka (the main character), is a normal 8th grader. She is very shy, but happy and her family and friends love her exactly the way she is. However on a trip to the mall, her life has a big turn when she rescues Kyuubei, a cat that was being chased by a mysterious black-haired gi...

Today I'll make a review on an anime I watched a few years ago (I think I saw it with my sister) and I really think it is an interesting story. Notes: This series has 8 episodes + OVA and it's from 2012. It was originally a 50-minute animated movie that turned into an anime. The original illustration inspired a song (with the same name) by  Supercell , which gained a lot of popularity on a website called  Nico Nico Douga . And it was made a game called ''Black Rock Shooter: The Game'' in 2012 for Playstation Portable. Let's start this, shall we? Plot: This story  is heavily related to the concept of the  Black ★ Rock Shooter OVA and   involves two girls whose friendship is tested when they are dragged into an alternate world. What will happen...
