My review!!!

 The Anime can be watched here...
So this is a really nice anime in my opinion... Though at first... In the first three sentences I thought it was going to be an idiots dream come true for an anime because the way things were worded was very odd to my ears.... And I have heard my share of weird things!

But by the end of the first episode I realized something... If you have ever watched the anime "that time I was reincarnated as a slime" you will understand... The stupidity of this anime was oddly satisfying to watch... It was less stupid and more fitting.

As time went by and I watched a few more episodes, Surprisingly, I was completely enjoying watching it too!

I think i really like that it has a kind of old fashioned anime feel to it with the more modern animation styles... That's not an easy thing to manage to be honest... They handled it so well that I felt like a teen watching an amazing anime for the first time in a long time! I felt like I really traveled back to my youth! It was amazing... The story is a good one too!

Nice art... great story.. Good character development too... All around it was great to watch! You just have to get past what seems like stupidity in the beginning... But if you do it is so worth it!

Speaking of it being worth it... This is the rating it earned!

On a scale of 1 to 10 with ten being a "Perfect-Must-Watch" rating I give this...

I know it will probably raise up in rank before I finish it but as of episode 5 this is what it got... Not to shabby right? I didn't give it a higher one because it seemed so stupid at first but like I said before... Each episode has a chance to redeem it a bit. It's not set in stone how it will go with the points... Any episode could be the turning point... For good or bad... This one was for good!

I can't wait to finish watching it!!!

For now, however, I must say good-bye!

As always... Thanx for reading my review!
Hope you have a Mysteriously fun and Magical day!!!

Kurosaki Sou is a 16-year-old who summons a devil to take his virginity. He hopes for a devil with flaming red hair, large horns, and black wings. He gets exactly what he wishes for, although he forgets something else rather important. Now he's forced to live with this devil and has to think of a way to get rid of it, and most importantly—survive its lust.



My review!!!

The manga this week can be found on here...

MangaPark: Himitsu no Akuma-chan
KissManga: Himitsu no Akuma-chan

Do you know how psyched up I was to read this one from just the tittle?!?!?

OK... So first let me explain that comment! I LOVE DEVIL STORIES!!!! I have no idea what makes me love them so much... Maybe it's the playful mischievousness that happens in every one I have found to this day!

That is probably it if i'm thinking rationally anyway.... And let me tell you... This one did not disappoint me at all with that aspect. It did get kinda agrivating that their progress in the contract had a really slow and detrimental rate... Poor Devil-chan! They suffered soooo much!

But if I'm being honest so did our little boy who decided magic was his best chance to become a man... Well he had help coming up with that idea though. It seems like the characters we see most are really well developed though and everything fits soooo well together that it's hard to remember I'm reading a manga and not watching an anime! I got so caught up in it all!!!

Speaking of that... I'm getting caught up in this too.. Rating time!!!

On a scale of 1 to 10 with ten being a "Perfect-Must-Read" rating I give this...

I wanted to give this one a complete 10 but in the end I feel like this could still continue... I want to know what happens to our devil and their main man... There were things I felt were left unanswered and it is bugging me... I can't give it a perfect rating when I am left wanting more and left with questions that could have been answered but aren't. I'm selfish like this I guess... But goddess it was such a good read so I couldn't in my right mind give it a bad rating!

There isn't too much more to say about this one... I think the only other thing is that it takes an issue that a lot of people have issues with (someone of one gender being too feminine or masculine) and faces it head on... and in this manga... The "problem" is handled well... I think the fact our young mans best friend and what seems like all the other people around him repeatedly say the situation isn't abnormal and no one makes fun of Devil-chan in any way is amazing... and yes I know I just gave away a major hint to the mystery...

You are gonna have to read it to figure out if I am telling the truth or not so please check it out!... But ya... Time to go!

As always... Thanx for reading my reviews!
Hope you have an amazing and fun day!

Just a rant... ugh!

So here in america the president has shut down the government.... I'm not going to go into detail because I really don't like it and it gives me anxiety watching how he is handling things... Yes you guessed it right... I don't like our president. But since I didn't vote I really have no right to complain much. The thing that bothers me right now is the shutdown's effect on the Federal Corrections Officers around the united states.... Especially since my husband is one of them! He has been working for no pay guarding criminals that would love to kill him if they just got the chance... And while he is stuck doing this we are in danger of losing our home, we have to seek help from the state for food, and it's not like he can just go get another job till the shutdown is over because he still has to report to the prison for his shifts because he is considered essential personnel.

So if he is so essential then they should pay him! I think that it should be done like this... Just like congress representatives, any essential personnel should still be payed in the event of a government shut down! These are the people we are asking to risk their lives... Hell even the secret service probably isn't getting payed... What would happen if one of them decides to work less diligently because they are doing it for free... They are still working so they won't get in to trouble but are they really gonna dive in front of a gun so willingly to protect the president when they are hungry and their family may end up on the street because of the same person they have to keep safe?

Lets be serious... You all know the answer to that is hell no they wouldn't be so willing... But... They would if hey had to.... Because that is their job!

Pay the people that are essential... not to hard... but seems impossible for them to realize this.

Anyhow... Thanx everyone for letting me vent... I know this isn't the usual post you get from me... I'll have the review out in a little bit so please just sit tight and wait for it!

As always... Thanx for reading my post @}>~~~',~~~~~~~

The series revolves around the Mizuki Diving Club (MDC), which is on the verge of closing down after having financial troubles. The club's new coach persuades the club's parent company to stay open on one condition: that the club sends one of its members to next year's Olympics as part of Japan's Olympic team.


My review!!!

 The Anime/Manga can be watched/read here...

I feel like I gave you guys a few options... Out of them I would buy it on amazon because the pop-ups get ridiculous sometimes.

So now we can start the review... I really liked the anime "Free" so when I saw this was another swimming style anime I was really excited. I was not disappointed... This one does have a lot of back story through-out the first 5 episodes. I am pretty sure that the rest of the episodes have the same thing going on but I haven't watched those yet to figure it out!

Speaking of figuring out.. Let me show you the rating I figured out for this one..

On a scale of 1 to 10 with ten being a "Perfect-Must-Watch" rating I give this...

I know... I skipped a step right? I didn't really tell you anything yet... Well in the first 5 episodes we learn a lot of back story and we get to see the effect that stress can have on the swimmers. We see how friendships that started with swimming can get kinda hard... We see the toll that swimming competitively takes on an athletes social life.

Basically we get to see what it would be like if we were the swimmer rather than follow just a story-line. Don't get me wrong though... There is a true story-line in this and I really love it! It's kinda like a "Go for Gold" message!

Those kinda anime really move me... They tell you to try hard and reach for the stars! Who wouldn't love an anime with a message like that???

Anyways... I feel like there are also some hints at it being a Bromance! I can't say if it's that or if it's really a Yaoi because so far there has only been a few hints that would lead you to think there was something there...And those are ones that only a true Fujoshi or Fudanshi would pick up on!

I like to consider myself among those who can pick up on these small hints! But from what I can see it, unfortunately,  is most likely not really true... It's hints enough to make your imagination run but no actual shows of affection. 

***SIGH*** Well maybe I'll get lucky with a good romance type one sometime this month or next month... I hope my roulette doesn't keep me waiting too long.... But for now we will wait together!

For now, however, I must say good-bye!

As always... Thanx for reading my review!
Hope you have a Mysteriously fun day!!!

Eun-Yo Song has beauty, popularity – everything a girl could want! After a chance encounter with pop-singer Nan Lee, Eun-Yo finds herself getting caught up in the world of super stardom. But little does she know that Nan Lee has plans of his own for her…and she’s about to fall into his trap!

My review!!!

The manga this week can be found on here...

MangaPark: Chiro Star Project

This manhwa is pretty interesting but oh my god did it start slow... I really didn't think I was going to like it at all since I have a hard time with slow starting books of all kinds. I really struggle through them. But this one wasn't so bad if I'm being honest.

I think at first I was upset because it sounded like something I would love right away. Especially since right now my favorite manga and anime are ones that have to do with people who are celebrities or are trying to become celebrities. The harder it is for them to achieve their goals the more I like it! but that doesn't seem to be the case in this one.

In this one it seems like the star of the project doesn't want to be a star at all... She just wants to be the idol of her school. After a few very unlucky things happen she ends up meeting a real star and then after more bad things happen that very same star is able to force her to be his pet project.

I know it sounds kinda out there but I read that description for the first time today and I was so excited to read this one!!! But then it felt like the first three chapters where so boring... It didn't start to be something I would consider reading more of till after that, and here we are now!

Speaking of that... Let me reveal the rating now too!!!

On a scale of 1 to 10 with ten being a "Perfect-Must-Read" rating I give this...

So I bet you want to know why it's so low right? Well it dropped one point each chapter it was slow so by the time it started to be good it was already only a 2. after adding points for the two chapters that were good I came to this rating.

I do like it though and because of that I looked up how I could possibly buy it... Here is a link to what I found!

Amazon: Chiro Star Project
Barnes and Noble: Chiro Star Project

Yeah I found two places this time because I know options rock!

Anyhow.... I think I am done now... I really can't think of anything else to write at the moment. In order to understand my odd review I'm afraid you are going to have to read it for yourself. You should really let me know if you liked it in the comments though cause I'd love to hear others opinions too!

Time to go!

As always... Thanx for reading my reviews!
Hope you have an amazing and fun day!

Synopsis

Loki, the Norse god of mischief, has been exiled to the human world for what was apparently a bad joke. Along with being exiled, he's forced to take the form of a child. He's told the only way he can get back to the world of the gods is if he can collect auras of evil that take over human hearts, and so to do this he runs a detective agency. Loki is soon joined by a human girl named Mayura who is a maniac for mysteries, and she soon helps out in her own way. However, soon other Norse gods begin to appear, and most have the intent to assassinate Loki for reasons unclear.


My review!!!

 The Anime can be watched on here ...

I have to admit I wasn't sure if I was going to love or hate this one at first. to be completely honest I hated it after the first episode... But i have to watch 5 so i kept going. Then by the end of the third episode I found I wanted to know what the heck was going to happen next. This is one where the "I like this" feeling sneaks up on you over time I think... I mean usually I know pretty fast that I like or don't like one and it doesn't change but this one did... Soooo worth checking it out if you find that like me you are someone who feels like that. It might just be the one that fools your ever so sensitive anime pallet!

Check out this picture! I think it was so cool so I wanted to share it with you!!!


So with this little bit of trickery in mind, Lets' check the rating it got!

On a scale of 1 to 10 with ten being a "Perfect-Must-Watch" rating I give this...
.
.

7
.
.

 I'm sure you are all wondering how a show that went from I don't like to I do like only managed a 7 for a rating... You see it's actually really simple to understand. When I start reviewing an anime I start the rating off right in the middle from 1-9. As time goes on I add or subtract based on the episode or chapter... If all 5 episodes or chapters are a 9 then it gets the elusive 10 rating. this anime started off by dropping a lot on the first episode because I literally hated it right away. Not sure why I did now but I did. So it had a lot of hard work to come back from that and i'm surprised it made it to 7! After all when I hate something that soon it drops to 0. Not too bad when you think of it like that huh my friends??? That's all for now!

As always... Thanx for reading my review!
Hope you have a Mysteriously fun day!!!
