Kuroko No Basket!!!
THIS IS AN AMAZING ANIME/MANGA BTW!!
(Plot)
The basketball team -Teikō Middle School rose to distinction by demolishing all competition. The regulars of the team were all prodigys and became known as the "Generation of Miracles". After graduating from middle school, these five stars went to different high schools with top basketball teams. However, there was another player that most didn't know about, In the "Generation of Miracles": a phantom sixth man. This mysterious player is now a freshman at Seirin High, a new school with a powerful, if little-known, team. Now, Kuroko Tetsuya- the sixth member of the "Generation of Miracles", and Kagami Taiga- a naturally talented player who spent most of middle school in the US, aim to bring Seirin to the top of Japan and begin taking on Kuroko's former teammates one by one.
While in Middle School, Kuroko was referred to as the shadow, he was only helpful if his team was good, he was a reflection of them. His lack of presence, was his strongest weapon, which all our him to make skilful passes using misdirection. He had become good friends with a guy called Aomine and eventually he became the light to Kurokos shadow. Unfortunately this was not to last and after Aomine' s prodigy skills came out he got bored of basketball and felt he no longer needed Kuroko. He began to drift away from him, and eventually, when Kuroko offered their fist bump-a mark of friendship- he simply ignored it and walked away.
Kuroko later meets Kagami, who becomes his new light. Kuroko states that he will make him the best in Japan.
This sports anime is seriously amazing! I recommend it to everyone (even if you don't usually like sports!!) . The games are never boring and the characters pasts and personalities always leave you curious, wanting more. The animation is especially cool, I LOVE THE BLUE LINE THING whenever Kuroko makes his awesome pass!! It's also got a really nice art style. The entrance songs are great too!
I've also read the manga and have to say that I loved it just as much as the anime! (Which I didn't expect, I usually prefer the sport animes for the action feel but this manga managed to pull that part off all on its own!)
This is definitely one of my favourites!!!!
It gets a lot of criticism about being to unrealsitic and stuff like that, But I honestly don't think that that was much of a problem. The one thing which did bug me was the whole 'zone' thing, and how (in the manga) there's a zone inside a zone? It just got a little confusing and didn't really make much sense.
So far there's been 2 seasons and a 3rd expected to come out 2015!! (I'm very excited for that!)
There is also rumered to be a new manga series coming out, though I'm not sure when... ;)
Anyway..... go get watching/reading!!!

Ps, my pics won't load at the moments, so I'll add them later ;)

Black butler review
(WARNING: SPOILERS, A LOT OF SPOILERS)
Black butler is an amazing anime with both suspense, comedy, demons and mystery.
To summarise a bit, the anime is set in the 1800s and is about a boy called Ciel Phantomhive who was kidnapped by a group of people - who torture children for their own amusement - right after his parents were murdered in a fire that had destroyed their entire mansion. The orphaned boy had then made a deal with a demon called Sebastian, the deal was that in return for his soul, Sebastian had to always protect him and be his butler till the day that Ciel had gotten revenge on the people who had murdered his parents and destroyed his home.
The story begins when Ciel had first made the deal with Sebastian, to seal their deal Ciel had gotten a mark on his right eye and Sebastian had gotten the same mark but on his left hand. Sebastian had then killed all of the people who had tortured Ciel and had taken him back to his home in London. It then starts properly a few years later in the Phantomhive manor were Sebastian is acting as Ciel's butler as agreed and is waking him up. During his new time period, Ciel has now taken over his father's business in making toys and sweets, Ciel is now working as the Queen's guard dog (which means that he is like a private investigator).It then shows Sebastian going around doing all of the chores such as cleaning, cooking, ironing and gardening. On that same day Ciel was going to have a visitor coming to have a meeting about the business. This visitor is an Italian man who is actually a spy who had been sent to try and get ahold of some personal information. When Ciel is having his visitor over he starts to suspect him of being a spy so sends Sebastian to deal with him. Sebastian soon discovored the Italian mans plan to ruin Ciel's family business. Sebastian then used his demon powers to torture and haunt the spy to death.
The rest of the episodes all have a similar plot to the first;
-There's a problem with Ciel's father's business or the Queen sends them cases to solve
- They go and investigate
- Ciel gets captured (It's like he wants Sebastian to save him)
-Sebastian saves him (LIKE A BOSS!)
- The problem is solved
- They then find out something shocking so that it then leads to the next episode
IT IS JUST THE SAME!!!!
But it is still enjoyable and will definitely keep your eyes glued to the screen
There is also a couple more Black butler series such as Black butler 2 and Black butler: Book of circus.
Black butler 2 is the sequel to the first Black butler. It is about a boy called Aloise Trancy who had the same horrible fate as Ciel as a child except he was kidnapped as a baby and his parents weren't murdered, instead Aloise was first brought up as a slave and then later on was then captured again and raped by Earl Trancy who used him horribly. It was then that Aloise had made the exact same deal as Ciel with another demon called Claude Faustus who later ends up killing him. Now I know what you softies out there are thinking, "Oh that poor poor boy", WELL NO NO HE IS NOT POOR OR INNOCENT HE IS A SELFISH ARROGANT LITTLE DIVA CHICKEN!!!!! HE HAS NO RESPECT FOR ANY OF HIS SERVANTS, IS A LIER, A CHEATER AND A CRY BABY!!!!
I swear to god this boy is really annoying because I mean at first he acts all high and mighty but near the end of the series he completely breaks down and begs to Claude for help because he doesn't want to die but yet ends up dying and taking over Ciel's body, just what on earth is wrong with him. (DRAMA QUEEN) =-O
Here is some info about some of the characters;
Sebastian
To me Sebastian would have to be my favourite character, he's strong, handsome and a demon what more could I ask for. In the manga it is a fact that Sebastian had made himself look like Ciel's father so that Ciel would be more comfortable around him and trust him more. It is also a fact that in the dubbed version of black butler, Sebastian's voice actor was the same dubbed voice actor for Kyoya Ootori from Ouran High School Host Club. He has black hair and red eyes that glow red when he is in BOSS mode, he also wears white gloves as well mostly so he can cover up his contract mark on his hand.
Ciel
The story of Black butler is definitely based on Ciel and his past and how he tries to solve the case of his parents murder. Ciel is 12 years old though in black butler 2 he is 13, he is very short for his age and wears an eye patch over his right eye to hide the contract mark in his eyeball. He is always gloomy because of his past but his fiancé Elizabeth always manages to make him a smile a little. Also he can be a little jerk at times.
Grell
I love Grell he/she (I DON'T KNOW HIS/HER GENDER, AAAAAARRRRGGGHHHH!!!!) is hilarious especially when he/she tries to prove his/her love to Sebastian. Grell is a reaper who likes the colour red, killing people and Bassy (A name that he/she calls Sebastian to flirt with him). Grell would have to be one of the stupidest characters of the anime because of his/her failed attempts at love towards Sebastian (kinda reminds me of Juvia from Fairy tail). Grell works as a reaper and used to work alongside William.T.Spears.
The anime Black butler was so popular that Japan had actually made it into a live-action movie. I haven't seen the movie yet but from the looks of the trail it looks AWSOME!!!!!! I AM SO EXCITED!!!!
Well that's all I've got to say towards the anime Black butler and I hope that you Otakus out there try it and enjoy it as much as I did because seriously this is one of the most popular animes out there so please give it a try or else Sebastian will probably hunt you down and possible kill you. ;-)
(P.S. This anime was originally supposed to be a yaoi but the company had changed it half way, just to say)

Death Note Halloween
Friday, 24 October 2014
Review : Death Note
Death note is about student Light Yagami who one day notices a
death note falling from the sky and then pick's it up and takes it
home. Light then tests to see if the book works by writing the name of a criminal who's name was featured on the news and currently taking hostages inside a nursery. 40 seconds after the name was written the criminal dies of a heart attack and light makes a revelation in saying that he must cleanse the world of evil and continues killing criminals and acquiring the nickname of the anonymous 'kirararara' from the english word killer. The great detective L then takes notice of the killings and begins an investigation to find the identification of 'kira'. Meanwhile Light gains the shinigami ryuk who owns the death note that light has. L later shows a news broadcast stating that this broadcast will be aired all over the world with Lind.L Tailor stating that he is the great detective L and saying that kira is evil, light then kills lind .L Tailor and believes that he has killed L. Soon after lind.l tailor dies of a heart attack the real l proclaims that he knows that kirarara lives in the conto region of japan and then says that Kira is evil and a childish killer who hates to lose. To which light and L both say at the same time 'i am justice'.
L then begins his detective work with a small group of the Japanese police force with the members being Suichi Aizawa, Touta Matsuda, Kanzo Mogi, Hideki Ide, Hirokazu Ukuta , Watari (who works with L to begin with), Soichiro Yagami (light's father), and later on Light Yagami. After light joins the task force a second kira also commonly know model and actress Misa Amane and her shinigami rem appears and finds light and proclaims that she should become light's girlfriend to which light eventually agrees but says that misa should not be around him outside of his house. Misa is soon arrested after making a few mistakes and light being a bigger suspect as he is currently going out with misa. To save themselves from execution they both relinquish ownership of their death notes and are detained for several days by L under constant surveillance. Whilst they are detained a third kira appears when L now has no proof that light and misasa are kirarara as the killings keep going on they are released into house arrest by L in his headquarters. Soon after the task force identify the third kira as the yotsuba groups Kyosuke Higuchi and arrest him. Light then touches the notebook and regains his memory and kills higuchi stating that this happened exactly as planned. The task force have now confirmed the existance if shinigami upon seeing rem. light then convinces rem to kill L and watari Therefore killing rem herself as she is violating shinigami law. After L's death light becomes the second L and continues pretending to search for kira whilst doing the killing between himself and misa.
The story then continues four years later when two of L's successors (Near, a detective who is a member of the united states government and of the SPK (the special provision for kira) and Mello, a member of the mafia) show up and both begin trying to gain the notebook.
Mello's first attempt of gaining the notebook is kidnapping the director of japans national police agency, but this plan is quickly changed as light makes the director commit suicide. In a second attempt at getting the notebook mello kidnaps light's sister Sayu Yagami, she is rescued but the notebook is lost to mello and his gang. To regain it light's father Soichiro trades half his life span to ryuk for the shinigami eyes and the ability to see peoples names and life span whilst looking at their faces. During an assult on mello's group Soichiro learns mello's real name but dies not kill him, he is shot several times and dies shortly afterwards in hospital.
After this near and some of the SPK begin to suspect light of being kira whilst light persuades misa to give up ownership of her death note and raises another kira known as Teru Mikami a prosecutor and supporter of kira. Mikami kills kira's former spokes person for being greedy and recruits Kiyomi Takada a newscaster and light's former girlfriend. Light reveals himself as kira to takada, knowing that he and the other kira's are under surveillence constucts a plan to conceal tge whereabouts of the real death note. Mello kidnaps takada who kills him with torn pages of the death note, light then proceeds to kill takada by making her commit suicide, but unbeknownst to lught mikami attempted the same thing but a minute later which exposes the location of the real death note, revealing light's last plan at the last minute. At the end of the story the two teams meet up at the 'yellow box warehouse' and are later joined by mikami who writes down the real names of everyone in the warehouse except light . Near then reveals that he replaced the notebook with a fake, and exposes light as kira. In desperation light attempts to kill near with the torn peice of the notebook but is quickly shot in the hand by task force member matsuda. Ryuk realises light has lost and uses his own death note to kill light with a heart attack. After that happens misa is shown heading to a tower to commit suicide. In the manga it shows near continuing L's work and eating chocolate in a homage to mello. A bonus chapter in the manga shows three years after light was killed by shinigami ryuk, another person attampting to be kira and killing old people. Near makes a news broadcast saying that 'he is not going to be involved in this case in anyway' and 'i have no interest in this case' to top it off near says 'you are just an abominable murderer' to which the person killing freezing up and in a panic writes their own name in the death note.
Death note also made two specials, two live actions and a movie. The first and second special were basically made for people who have not seen the series and contains some scenes that are NOT in the episodes so i recommend watching both. They basically show what happens the same as the series and have the same storyline. The live action death note has the same actors as the movie and have voice overs from the english dub actors which i personally think is pretty good and have a slightly different story in some areas but end in the same way. The movie is a live action film and is called L change the world where a virus that is killing people in thailand spreads and L has written his own name in the death note and given himself 23 days to live, and later burns both the death notes. Only one person is known to have lived through this disease and that is near so he is put under L's care after Watari and F is killed. L also takes another child under his wing who is the daughter of the doctor who created the antidote to the virus. The girl is under an assassination attempt of the group who created the virus and she, near and L escape to recreate the antidote for the virus. L then gives the antidote to everyone who has the virus and ends with L leaving near and giving near his 'real name'. After the end credits L is seen back in his room eating chocolate and then leaves momentarily which could possibly be leading to the events leading to the event of his death in death note the last name. The film ends with the words on a black screen saying 'L Lawliet, Rest In Peace'. I would advise people to watch this film.
Personally i LOVE death note and pretty much everyone who has seen death note does to.
Death note is definitely on of the best anime of all time and has the best storyline ever! Many people agree to this. Some people say that death note is a PG-16 (i saw this somewhere) And i kinda agree with them but i kinda don't. Whilst there is murder and blood featured in death. Note i wouldn't say that it was to gruesome, but i'm not squeamish so i'm not sure. Death note always has perfect deaths storylines and endings for me! The ending and the death of light is definitely something i would say is 'a death worthy of kira'.

Angel beats REVIEW
Angel Beats takes place at an after-life high school for those who have died, where students learn to give up any lingering attachments they still have from life before passing on. Those in the afterlife school can still feel pain as they did when they were alive, as well as dying again, only to awaken later with no injuries. The story follows Otonashi, a boy who lost all his memories of his life after dying. He meets Yuri, a girl who invites him to join the Afterlife Battlefront (SSS), an organization she founded and leads which fights against God for the cruel fates the SSS members experienced in life. In the SSS, there is a four-girl band named Girls Dead Monster that acts as a diversion during missions, and an organization called the Guild that mass-produces weapons out of dirt and supplies them to the SSS. Their only enemy is Angel, a girl who has supernatural powers and fights against the SSS. Angel creates her powers with the aid of a computer program called Angel Player. The rest of the afterlife school is populated by a large number of "normal" students and teachers that are not human, but look and act the part.
The first of the characters to fulfill her dream and pass on is Iwasawa, the leader of Girls Dead Monster. Angel, whose real name is Kanade Tachibana, loses her position as student council president and the vice president Naoi succeeds her. Naoi uses powers of hypnosis to control the 'normal' students to fight for his own interests against the SSS, but Otonashi stops him after acknowledging Naoi's existence and he subsequently joins the SSS.
Otonashi regains his memories with the aid of Naoi's hypnosis and agrees to continue with the SSS. Otonashi befriends Kanade (Angel) and invites her to join in on SSS activities.
After Otonashi fully remembers the details of his life and death, he starts cooperating with Kanade to help the other SSS members move on, and Kanade is reinstated as student council president in accordance with their plan.
Yui, the girl who replaced Iwasawa in Dead Girl Monster, passes on when Hinata confesses his love for her. She's the second to pass on.
Mysterious shadow monsters begin attacking the SSS. Otonashi reasons with the other SSS members and many of them agree to pass on in lieu of becoming 'normal students' including the rest of Girls Dead Monster, Chaa of the Guild, and several unnamed members.
Yuri destroys the computers responsible for the shadow monster program, which was programmed to activate when love was detected in the world, to prevent it from becoming a true paradise.
Those who are left—Otonashi, Yuri, Kanade, Hinata and Naoi—hold a graduation ceremony where they thank each other for their support. After Naoi, Yuri and Hinata pass on, Otonashi learns that Kanade's regret was not being able to thank him for the heart she received from Otonashi after his death.
Otonashi is heartbroken after she thanks him and passes on, as he had fallen in love with her.
In the epilogue, two people resembling Otonashi and Kanade meet each other on the street in the real world.

Review: Sword Art Online
Kirito, Chibi Style!!! |
*SILENCE*
THERE WILL BE SPOILERS IN THIS!!
I'm going to do this review on an anime I recently finished called Sword Art Online!! (Or SAO)
Basically, this is an anime about people trapped in a high tech game, the only way out is to complete all one hundred floors, but if you die in game, you die out game too.
DUH DUH DUUUUUUUH
The series revolves around the main characters, Kirito and Asuna. Together they fight to try and clear the game, along with a few friends who come and go as the anime progresses.
Asuna: Left Kirito: Right |
A lot of people say they found the ending of the first half sad, but don't let that put you off, personally I thought that it was pretty happy, cause they beat the game!!!
I guess some parts of it where sad...
Kiritos avatar (second game) |
Like how she dies protecting him, and he dies anyway after winning his dual...
And how she doesn't wake up after, for some reason, not actually dying after she was meant to...
-Maybe it is sad and I'm just heartless X,D
ANYWAY; this is an amazing, fast moving anime. Honestly, I think most people would love it! It's got a little bit of romance, a lot a
bit of action, it's about a game which is like-WOAH!!!! And it's even got a bit of Comedy twisted into it!!!!
I HIGHLY RECCOMEND WATCHING THIS!!
9/10!!!!
PS: Found these on pinterest and couldn't resist putting them up on this!!!
Kirito doesn't actually say that but he was definitely Thinking it!!! |
Kirito asked the game creater why he did this... The creater literally said that he couldn't remember why... ALL VIEWERS: WHAT DO U MEAN U CAN'T REMEMBER!!! |
