Anime : Kamisama Dolls

Kamisama Dolls, an action and supernatural anime. I decided to watch this anime because of the word Kamisama on the title. I like anime that have Gods in it. But this anime is totally something else. It's not the God that I expected. Well, I expect to see some handsome God like Yato from Noragami. I thought it will be a boring anime but as the story goes on, it seems more interesting to me. So cool !! This anime have 13 episodes and 5 specials. 


Characters :

Kyouhei Kuga
Hibino Shiba
Utao Kuga
Aki Kuga
Koushiro Hyuga
Kirio Hyuga
Mahiru Hyuga

Synopsis : Kyouhei Kuga is a young man that move out from his hometown, Karakami village, to Tokyo. He and Hibino Shiba went to the same university. When he move to Tokyo, Hibino's father help him to find an apartment for him since they came from the same village. Karakami village have thier own secrets. There are seki and kakashi. Seki are the one who controls Kakashi and Kakashi is a machine which they recognize as God. Kyouhei was once a Seki. He is known as one of the most powerful Seki since he can use the power of Kukuri's left hand. Kukuri is Kyouhei's kakashi. He quit being a Seki and now his sister, Utao Kuga, is the one who uses Kukuri. Then Utao came to Tokyo to meet his brother and tell him that Aki Kuga escaped from the village. Aki Kuga is a Seki that controls Kuramitsuha and he is Kyouhei's childhood friend. They once practice together with their kakashi but due to some incident, Aki has been locked up and Kyouhei stop being a Seki. Koushiro Hyuga and Kirio Hyuga was sent to Tokyo by the Hyuga family to capture Aki. In the village there was two family that controls the shrine, the Hyuga and Kuga family. These family are enemies. 

Want to know what kind of past that Kyouhei and Aki have? Why did he stop being a Seki? And.. I was really hoping that there will be second season of this anime. After some research, I found out that there might not be another season. But the manga is till ongoing (maybe?) .. Well that what I read. I don't want to read the manga since I have to read from the first volume. I hate reading tho ... =.=

Movie : Summer Wars

Hi! It's been a while since I last update my blog. Right now I'm having 5 weeks of holiday. So.. I'll use this time to update it. 

Summer Wars is a comedy and Sci-Fi anime. I don't always watch Sci-Fi anime, but this was very good! It's a warm yet tense storyline. According to MyAnimeList, this movie last for 1 hour 54 minutes. Summer Wars was aired on 1st of August 2009.



Characters :


Kenji Koiso
Natsuki Shinohara
Kazuma Ikezawa
Sakae Jinnouchi
Takashi Sakuma

Synopsis : This story goes around a teenage boy named Kenji Koiso. His best friend is Takashi Sakuma. Both of them works as a part-timer in the Oz world, a program that controls nearly every aspects of life. Both of them running additional system maintenance on Oz. In the end, Kenji followed Natsuki Shinohara, a senior who Kenji have crush on, to her family meeting. Her family are having 90th birthday celebration of her grandmother, Sakae Jinnouchi. Then Natsuki told him to pretend to be her boyfriend. Even though he disagree with it at first, he decided to help her. That night, Kenji received 2056 numbers that he have to solved. He managed to solve it and send it back to the sender. However, something bad happened. Kenji's face, which censored, shown on tv. He's a criminal. The numbers that he solved that night was actually a code. When he managed to solved it, the hacker managed to hack the Oz world and causing so much trouble. The GPS didn't work well, the water system broke, and many more since people uses the system in their daily life. 

What actually happen in the world? How can he solve this problem? How worse can things be? (Trust me, things get even worse in the end). Don't worry, it's a happy ending. LOL! It's worth wating this anime. It was great. I almost cried at certain moment. And oh .. this anime reminds me of Toki wo Kakeru Shoujo (The Girl Who Leapt Through Time). The artwork, the voice acting and their intonation. By intonation I mean.. the way they speak ..
