DVD 1 Review

Ranmaru Shindo, along with his feisty, devoted little sister Saya, survived a brutal murder spree that left 97 percent of their apartment-complex neighbors dead, including their own parents. Shindo is plagued with nightmares in which a sword-wielding topless woman dispatches his night-terror pursuers with extreme prejudice. Recently inducted into the investigation unit of the police department, he is determined to use his new position to track down his parents' killers. His resolve is only reinforced when he meets Sakura Rokujo, a member of the super-mysterious Division 2 of the investigation unit and the spitting image of his blood-spilling dream-babe, in the midst of a vicious firefight with what to all appearances is a gang of murderous super-fast zombies. Of course, not all is as it seems (is it ever?): Shindo and Rokujo have a deeper connection than he realizes, medieval alchemists and demons feature heavily in his new life, and he may have more in common with those zombie nasties than he'd ever want to admit.

Hayate the Combat Butler 2nd Season

Rating: 2.5 (of 5)

Review:
In these trying economic times, no story resonates quite like that of Hayate Ayasaki, an earnest young man who fell into debt through no fault of his own but is able to achieve financial sustainability through diligence and hard work. Of course, when that hard work involves a life of servitude to a bratty, manga-obsessed heiress, one might start to have second thoughts. But that's how the story goes, and it's also summarized at the start of this sequel series by the omnipresent narrator (who continues to be a highlight of the show with his deadpan delivery).

Hayate the Combat Butler jumps right back into its usual brand of nonsense comedy as Hayate, Nagi and friends all decide to enter a "freestyle marathon" footrace. However, it's hard to get excited about a scenario that was basically the plot of the Homestar Runner video game (as well as dozens of old-school sitcom cartoons), and the constant interruptions to re-introduce all the characters don't help either. Things start getting better in the second half, though, with Hayate doing what he does best: combatting other butlers. His rivals are as delightfully nutty as they've always been, and the sheer energy of battle—along with a well-placed parody scene, one of the other things the show does really well—drives this episode to a promising finish.

We can only hope that the humor continues to maintain that energetic level, however, as the overall production values rarely rise above adequate. Although it's not unwatchable, the visual presentation will always be second-rate with the cookie-cutter character designs, intentionally goofy action scenes, and lots of standing around and talking. Audio doesn't fare much better, with the tinkly sort of background music that goes in one ear and out the other. On a positive note, though, I've never been a big fan of Hinagiku (too perfect and overrated) but she does turn in a charming performance on the ending song.

K-ON!

Rating: 3.5 (of 5)

Review:
It may not exactly be Lucky Star ~After Story~ (Tsukasa dies in childbirth!), but the first episode of K-ON! shows Kyoto Animation returning to the comfortable world of Cute Girls Doing Cute Things. The story begins with Yui, a freshly minted high schooler who's trying to pick which club to join. As luck would have it, the light music club—headed by energetic drummer Ritsu—desperately needs members, or else will be disbanded. There's just one problem: Yui has no sense of tempo and can't play an instrument, but hey! A club that offers free snacks can't be all bad.

With shades of the live-action movie Linda Linda Linda, which of course also connects to the "Live Alive" episode of Haruhi Suzumiya, the series adds a welcome dose of rock flavor to the overly homogeneous slice-of-high-school-life genre. For some, it may still be too big a blob of moe to handle—Yui's skittishness is downright maddening (why isn't this girl in psychiatric counseling?), and Ritsu appears programmed to annoy people to death with her gung-ho attitude—but when it comes to capturing the vivacity of youth, it's hard to go wrong with starting a band. If there's any element that feels underdeveloped so far, it's that the humor lacks the energy and physicality that KyoAni is known for, but that will probably emerge as the characters become more familiar.

The other thing that KyoAni is known for, of course, is their obsessive-compulsive approach to animation, which reveals itself in a handful of lovingly detailed scenes like Yui's childhood flashback (look at her go on the castanets!) and her mad dash to school in the opening scene. The opening and ending sequences are devoid of wacky dance routines this time around, but if there was ever a studio to convincingly animate a rock performance, it would be these guys, with a couple of deliciously catchy theme songs to back them up. Let's just hope the story moves along fast enough for Yui to actually learn how to play something ...

Mainichi Kaasan

Rating: 2.5 (of 5)

Review:
Well, I didn't think there was genre even more worn-out than the "ordinary teenager discovers amazing secret powers" subset of anime, but whaddya know! Apparently the family sitcom is just as stale in Japan as it is in America. Mainichi Kaasan follows the trials and tribulations of Rieko Kamohara, mother to two preschool-aged children and wife to a somewhat flaky (and sometimes alcohol-guzzling) husband. While the Chi franchise may be inherently cuter, Kaasan has a slight edge with its kooky characters and longer format, which allows more room for jokes to develop. This works especially well in the "mommy accidentally starts a manga series in her kid's school record book" gag, which escalates to brilliantly absurd heights but never would have been possible in three-minute bursts.

Unfortunately, one flash of brilliance does not make up for the various other shorts in Episode 1, which often resort to being loud and irrational as a substitute for humor, or driving a joke into the ground by repetition. Of course, one also gets a handful of cutesy-poo family moments, which are exactly as forced and mawkish as they sound.

The animation has its occasional moments of virtuosity as well—the scenes where the kids are horsing around are executed pretty smoothly, and Mom's ocean dream sequence is a calming display of aesthetics—but again, it's all the ugly stuff elsewhere that ruins it. With a style that barely rises above stick figure art, and a lead character who apparently only has one facial expression, it's hard to find much visual appeal in this. But hey, even Shin-chan eventually made it in America, so who knows.

NANA
Vol. 16-18 Manga Review

The major subplot of volumes sixteen and seventeen is one that has been slowly coming to fruition for quite a long time: That of the whereabouts of Nana Osaki's missing mother. Weekly Search has been busily digging up dirt in-between the lurches of the previous volumes, and now finally they are ready to go to print. (Any especially thick-headed readers should now know beyond a shadow of a doubt what is going on with that little hole in the wall restaurant in Osaka by now.) Nana's reaction to the revelation, after all that buildup of dramatic tension, is a bit anti-climatic, but there is plenty of opportunity to get to know the series' large cast of characters better as they react collectively to the fallout.

NANA
Vol. 16-18 Manga Review

One of the manga's best pieces of dramatic irony thus far involves Misato Uehara's inclusion in Black Stones' VIP Christmas party. This occurs late in volume sixteen, before the “missing mother” subplot unfurls completely…although you will definitely feel sorry for what is revealed, via hearsay only, about how Misato takes the news. Ah, but we're getting ahead of ourselves here, and I'm trying not to drop any major spoilers. Anyway, back to the party. Of course, the little fangirl's resemblance to Nana is not merely coincidental, and you get to see the goth-lolita Mai Tsuzuki, who once operated under the name Misato, sweat it out in a major—and for a reviewer who doesn't especially like Mai, profoundly satisfying—way. For better or worse, though, the party begins and ends without a hitch. Misato's misery happens later.

Vol. 16-18 Manga Review

After that whole snafus, you might expect the plot to slow down for a volume or so. Not a chance. You get the feeling in volume eighteen that Yazawa is ready to make the final sprint toward the proverbial finish line with a shocking turn. Shin, you see, has been dealing badly with his breakup with Reira, and then his family, with which he has never been on good terms in the first place, turns his bedroom into his dad's library. Shin goes straight over the deep end—and gets caught by the police. The resultant scandal may well be the end of Blast's explosive rise to top of the charts. It's still an open question, though, whether it will be this latest scandal, or her own devouring ambition, that will lead to Nana's downfall.

NANA
Vol. 16-18 Manga Review

Two of the volumes reviewed, sixteen and eighteen, are oversized; they include side stories devoted to Nobu and Takumi respectively. While Nobu's is about as unexciting as the characters' hometown and really does little more than show, in detail, how prosaic his personality really is (Yazawa was just phoning it in, anyway), Takumi's—as per the character's simultaneously alluring and repulsive sides—is quite fascinating. We get to see the basis for his “special” relationship to Reira, and by implication a bit of the rationale behind his eagerness to lay claim to Hachi's unborn child. Needless to say, the language here is definitely not appropriate for your average pre-teen.

NANA
Vol. 16-18 Manga Review

As always, NANA's artwork is among the most distinctive and exquisite available on the shoujo manga market, on both sides of the Pacific. You could spend hours just exploring the visual depth of her drawings, for there is detail, detail, and more detail everywhere, and despite what must be a veritable army of assistants, the illustration is always stylistically consistent and compelling. Furthermore, the typically melodramatic, emotional story gains much needed levity primarily from the artwork; characters' faces have quirky ranges of expression, and the little doodles that sometimes appear in the background can be laugh out loud funny.

I won't spoil anything, but it appears the series' recurring trope of narrated nostalgia might not be the prelude to unrelenting tragedy after all. There may still be hope for a happy ending, and that little glimmer of hope is sure to keep Yazawa's fans, who have been following this series now for as long as a decade and quite possibly came of age during its serialization, riveted right to the end.

Queen's Blade

Rating: 0.5 (of 5)

Review:
Meticulous research reveals that the Queen's Blade franchise is a series of cheesecake artbooks that also serve as "gamebooks" for a turn-based combat game. This means there is something in the world that combines the sheer dorkitude of Soul Calibur, D&D, and Yu-Gi-Oh!. It also means there is a really, really awful anime based on this product.

The story is simple and mind-numbing: Leina (or possibly Reina) is a wayward princess who wants to see the world, which apparently means battling a demon girl who squirts deadly acidic milk out of her boobs. (I swear I am not making this up.) Luckily, Leina is saved by a roving bandit named Risty, who talks Leina into returning to her royal family—but bandits being what they are, Risty really just wanted to swipe some loot! Along the way, she helps Leina escape once and for all, so that she can have a rematch with the milk-squirting demon girl and participate in a fighting tournament known as the Queen's Blade. And yes, this is basically some flimsy pretext for having scantily-clad young women fight each other to the death.

Since nobody really gives a poop about the storyline, let's turn to the most critical element of a series like this: the character designs. They are, in a word, stunning, in the sense that if you got in the way of these ladies' bazongas, you would probably find yourself with a severe concussion. The fantasy setting makes for lots of fanciful and illogical costumery, along with exotic locales, but the fights themselves rely almost entirely on animation shortcuts or staged poses. So basically, the sex appeal element has all the sensuality and tease factor of a brick to the head, and the action element could probably have been done better if people just waved the artbook illustrations at each other really frantically.

The only redeeming feature of the show might be its grandiose music score, which maybe one day can be recycled for use in a non-awful fantasy series.

Chi's New Address (episodes 1-2)

Rating: 2 (of 5)

Review:
Do you really, really care about the ongoing adventures of an adorable little kitten? Apparently, enough of Japan did, because Chi's Sweet Home has entered a new season of production. As always, the three-minute format and tales of everyday family life make this difficult to grade by typical anime standards, as that would be like trying to analyze Dilbert by the same rubric as Watchmen.

In any case, some vital developments occur early here: it's been getting harder and harder to hide Chi in a no-pets-allowed apartment complex, and her owners have decided that it might be best for the growing kitten to move out to the countryside. It's a surprisingly somber start: the opening episodes are basically about the feelings of loss that will eventually come when a housepet who's practically a member of the family has to leave. Of course, one still gets the obligatory scenes of Chi being rambunctious and cute around her family, but having it tempered by these uncertain emotions is a pretty unexpected move.

What is to be expected, though, is that the series is still presented in standard gag-strip style, with unapologetically simple character designs and backgrounds. Primary colors further accentuate the feel of modern suburban life, and what may come as a surprise is that the animation technique actually passes muster—in fact, there are some pretty slick transitions in the brief dream sequences about Chi's eventual departure. Hey, if you've got enough financial support to produce a second series of a five-minute show about a housecat, you might as well splurge a bit. Similarly, one will find the background music simple, pleasant and unintrusive, much like the rest of the show.

However, that pleasant simplicity is also what dooms the series. Yes, it meets the standards of its given genre. But is that genre going to grab viewers by their eyeballs and compel them to watch episode after itty-bitty episode? Probably not, unless they went through the entire 104-episode run of the original Chi. Or if they really care about what'll happen when Chi moves out.
