So it's 2005 and it's about time we speak of some new anime or manga. I mean, like some intro or some sort of a recommendation or something for them they are released here (or you guys can just get the fansubs or something. lol)
Let us begin (I guess starting with popular ones)!
Gundam Seed Destiny (arc 2)
Yes, the sequel is entering its second arc (I'm sure it's about time for a recap ep soon. :-/). The series had an explosive start, and I'm looking forward to seeing how things would turn out.
Mai Hime (My Hime, arc 2)
After the first arc in fall, it launhes straight into the second arc! W00t! We'll see if the quality keeps up here. It feels a bit mecha-ish, but it's got a pretty good fanbase.
Samurai Champloo (arc 2)
Champloo debuted summer of last year and had a distinctive "cool" flavour. Looking forward to seeing more here, esp. since it's about Fuu and all. :P
School Rumble
Excellent comedy series. Continuing from fall. Oh man, I think I forgot my legs one time because it was so funny. :P
Girls Bravo season 2
No comment. It's more ecchi humour anyway. If you're still interested, it's about thie guy who has "girl-phobia" (don't ask me why they say that. lol) and he just happens to be surrounded by girls. :P
Gakuen Alice:
I'm not even sure if it's gonna continue from what I know. but it's still releasing during this time, so here it is. Some say it's like Kiddy Grade. I wouldn't know, but I do know it's hilarious. t's about this girl who goes into Alice Academy (Gakuen = Academy, apparently) to find her friend. Little did she know that she is also a suspect for an Alice.
Jinki:Extend:
I don't know much about this one as I've see 1 ep so far. it's looking alright for a mecha series, and the lack of fan service is a nice change. Don't knkow much about its plot.
Starship Operators:
This is about a bunch of cadets that wish to defeat this place called "Kingdom" (essentially an empire) to reclaim their world. It's dialogue intensive so far in the first 2 eps.
Ultimate Girl:
2 words: Hentai ultraman.
Ichigo Mashinmaro:
The manga's very cute and it contains relatively little servicing. It's about the life of several girls.
Ichigo 100%:
Ecchi humour with a guy who has a whole bunch of girls all liking him. I'mnot sure if it'll even AIR in 2005, but I'm sure it will soon enough due to its popularity.
That's all for now. :P
