Sakura's Anime Plans

Post by Sakura »

Now that I spent alot of time on re-building "AAW v4.0" I have a sudden interest in newer anime.

Couldn't help but notice the lack of "School Comedy" like Azumanga Daioh in the newest series. Purrhaps you have some suggestions?

Currently on my todo list are:
Fruits Basket (2019)
One of my favorites, I wasn't aware of a three season remake that aired in 2019. (Crunchyroll)

Card Captor Sakura
I haven't watched that in ages. One of CLAMP's masterpieces and the story where I extracted my name from. It's time to refresh my knowledge :thumb:

My Stepmother and Stepsisters aren't wicked
Somethimes life isn't as complicated as it appears... I hope this is one of the easy-going shojo titles
Plot Summary: Miya is the illegitimate child of a prominent family. When her mother dies, and her father's estate agrees to take her in, she's convinced she knows what awaits her in her new home: a life of servitude and misery at the hands of her wicked stepmother and stepsisters. Yet when she finally meets the women, she expects to treat her like dirt, but they actually end up being...sweet. [by ANN]

The Cat and the Dragon
Cats? Dragons? Count me in!
Plot Summary: Deep, deep within the forest, a fire-breathing dragon lives with cats who wield magic. Having lost his biological parents before birth, the dragon was raised by a mother cat he met by chance. The cats welcomed the dragon into their family, seeing him as a "slightly unusual cat" who could fly and breathe fire. Each of the curious forest cats has their own unique way of life. As if to repay his debt to the mother cat, the dragon stays close to the forest cats and watches over them. The cats affectionately call him "Uncle with Wings," while humans, with awe, refer to him as the "Cat Dragon." [by ANN]

Chainsmoker Cat
Well, it's a painfully cigarette addicted catgirl. But still a catgirl!
Plot Summary: Welcome to Yani's apartment. Please don't mind the smell. Yani is a catgirl with a seriously bad smoking habit. Every time she tries to quit, she becomes weak to the cravings and gives in almost instantly. Behind on her rent and unable to hold down a job, her friends and sister rally around to help her out. But when she's using her pee to put out cigarette fires, they may just have their work cut out for them. [by ANN]

Magilumiere Magical Girls Inc.
Well they got my attention with "magical girls" already. Mmmhm I''m soo predictable ain't I?
Plot Summary: Kana Sakuragi is an excellent candidate for the job. She's motivated and organized, and has a fantastic memory. She's trying to keep a positive attitude, but it seems like her bad luck is only getting worse when a monster crashes her latest interview. As havoc ensues, she finds herself helping the magical girl who comes to their rescue and ends up with more than just her life in return. [by ANN]

You and I Are Polar Opposites
Sounds like a romantic comedy with additional stress factors
Plot Summary: Suzuki has a desperate crush on Tani, a boy in her class, but she has no idea how to approach him. The two are on opposite ends of the class social hierarchy: she's loud and bubbly with lots of friends, and he keeps to himself, barely responding when she talks to him. But when she finally gets over her fears and admits her crush, it turns out that things aren't so hopeless after all. [by ANN]

I Want to Love You Till Your Dying Day
This story sounds violent and dramatic like Elfenlied. At first glance the title sounded like some Shojo anime but it sounds mysterious enough that I have to watch at least one episode. I wonder it I'll watch the second
Plot Summary: Death lurks behind a mysterious orphanage where children train to become magical weapons of war. Among them is Sheena, who longs to stop the fighting and end the conflict. On one gruesome night, Sheena meets a strange girl covered in blood, with a smile on her face. The mysterious girl turns out to be a secret weapon—an immortal child soldier named Mimi. When the two become roommates, there is growing tension and attraction. [by ANN]

Things not to watch

The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love You
Nothing wrong with harem anime (if it's not too ecchi) but try to squeeze 100 girls that simultaneously have a crush on the hero into a single series sounds like a very shallow and embarrassing story line
Plot Summary: Aijo Rentaro tried and tried again, but after asking a hundred girls out on a date, he was rejected every single time. In desperation, he prays for guidance. Only to be told by a god that his rejections were due to some cosmic error. [by ANN]

Done

Botan Kamiina Fully Blossoms When Drunk
A very strange story line of two girl's whose relationship is related on alcohol abuse[/b]
Plot Summary: The story of the series follows Botan Kamiina, a first year university student who tries drinking for the first time when she meets her dorm supervisor, third year student Ibuki Tonami, who enjoys alcohol but doesn't like to drink in public. The two become friends and sample different drinks while living in Chichibu. [by ANN]

Botan Kamiina Fully Blossoms When Drunk

That series is missing a storyline and the episodes seems a bit confusing to me. I have to take back the "alcohol abuse," instead the protagonists are conossieurs of rare brands and not always throw up after their "sessions." Actually there was only one such scene and it wasn't one of the protagonists who failed to keep her liquor.

This is a series you can side-watch when doing something else that doesn't need your full attention. I wouldn't re-watch it anytime soon nor would I recommend it to others.
