Higurashi First Arc thoughts

Saturday, July 7th, 2007

Higurashi is a show that i followed mostly from the start, but picked up a little later to finish off watching.
Anyway i’ve watched this show so many times and each time it gets way more awesome.

So the “Demoning away/Spirited away” Arc being the first in the series, which starts it all but leaves a lot of unanswered questions.

Basically without spoiling, Keichii moves to the town of Hinamizawa, meeting Rena, Mion, Satako etc

But obviously being that this town is very…. strange with a dark secret and  people “dying”.

As with everything, it all starts off lovely and then things really do change, notice Renas eyes, and Shions too, and the sudden change in attitude, like something has possessed them.

A lot of the scenes were just plain creepy, from the needle in Keiichis food that Rena brought over, to the Rena with a giant hatchet, and that maniacal laugh, and finally to Keiichi going insane.

So it left me shocked after the 4th episode, aka the end of this arc, then suddenly the whole reset thing threw me off at first but then it’s made clear that eventually this is basically another chance, and wow.. Shion is hot heh

Tsukuyomi Moon Phase

Saturday, June 16th, 2007

 Finally finished watching this, it’s a fairly decent anime series, i mean i started watching like a year or 2 ago, but slowly but surely i found it mind numbly boring, it was more a chick show in my opinion, for those that don’t know

Hazuki a young vampire girl, living in a mysterous castle under the care of Count Kinkle, encounters Kouhei, a boy well i’m guessing late teens, who can’t see spirits, anyway long story short, Hazuki who is under the name Luna, her “other” castle bound personality, sucks his blood and, well he with the help of Seiji and his grandpa rescue her, from the Count. well theirs a whole bunch more but honestly i got tired of the Hazuki and Kouhei stuff..

Anyway it grew on me, actually i guess if i hadn’t of watched i would of thought huh? when Angela sent Kisu(kiss in Japanese) by email..

Hmm.. i really loved Episode 26, the series ends on 24 well the story, these are more side eps, anyway they are in the house, which happens to be on the ocean, Seiji, Grandpa, Hazuki, Arte etc.

Anyways Seijis like locked in his room going Nuts, thinking what the heck they are thinking being so calm when the house is in the middle of the Ocean..

Oh and its being held afloat by a Cork.. yes a CORK.. Arte pulls it out and the house starts sinking, all gets saved, she does it again.. and bye bye everyone.. it wasn’t anything serious but dang its one of those episodes that reinforce your love for anime

if anyone is reading i reccommend you watch, and stick with the show, dispite its flaws, its hilarious and serious at the same time

Oh… and i kinda.. recommended this to people without kinda finishing it myself.. doh..

Also, Neko Mini Mode.. the cutest anime song ever? Lol
