Holy Hell... It's been a while, right?

So its been a while since my last post and I've been busy as usual keeping up with all my series plus I've also been real busy gaming on my phone... I know, weird right? Who really games on their phone now a days... I think I spend probably an hour or more almost on their daily playing games... Mostly Clash of Clans... That shit is addicting... but enough of that... onto the ANIME!!

There were shows ending right? Like I said before, I'll talk a little about that but before I do I'd like to spotlight some new shows that just started for this season...

<drumroll>

SWORD ART ONLINE IS BACK!!!

I have to say... I'm super happy this show is back... This was everything that an episode 1 should be. Established characters... pointed the story in a direction and kind of left it open for the series to properly take shape. I CANNOT wait til this gets into full swing. The last series is one of my favorite shows of all time... Hell, I've honestly watched it 3x already... and it's 25 episodes, thats like 2 seasons worth of watching. The 2nd series is going to be around the same length as well... I urge everyone... WATCH THIS SHOW! Also, if for some reason you've been living under an anime-less rock for a while go watch the first series... It was amazing!

Second show I'm very excited about is a Manga-based show called Akame ga Kill! I have to shout out to the creator of this great story... I adore the manga. I've read everything thats currently available to me... that is, that was translated and put on one of the major manga reading sites like Batoto, Starkana, or Mangahere. I really hope they can bring the essence of the manga to the screen properly because this manga is BLOODY! So far so good, I liked the first episode and cant wait for more. 

Now I mentioned how shows ended right... Well, I'm only going to mention the ones I really think you should watch... 

1. Black Bullet - This show started off great and never let me go. The characters were endearing and you really felt the sadness in the stuff they had to deal with and persevere.
2. Blade & Soul - The story was pretty good and ended up with some decent plot twists when I really wasn't expecting them. Also, the art on this show is top notch. Definitely suggest this one to watch.
3. No Game No Life - Can you say... Cliffhanger?! Not that it was a bad ending by any means but you can tell they were always looking for Season 2 in the way they handled it. Anyway, this show is pure entertainment. There is always something crazy going on and the group dynamic is really fun. This is a MUST WATCH show IMO!
4. Akuma no Riddle - Definitely took me by surprise... I don't watch YURI... like EVER! But this show kept it interesting and the action sequences were pretty decent. Kind of a predictable ending if you ask me but it was what it was supposed to be I guess.
5. Gokukoku no Brynhildr - Another manga based but this one had an awesome plot and really original story. All the quirky characters with their powers were cool and I'd like to see a second series with this... hopefully there will be. 

Brynhildr in the Darkness 10

Terrible foreboding at the end of the episode. Valkyria, and S-Rank witch is finally being sent out to capture Kuroha and the rest of the gang... we'll get to that in a second...

So Nanami dies... The memory changing witch. They pop her beacon right near the beginning of the episode. She said shes fine with dying because they'd remember her but she erases their memories anyway. BAKA! Poor Murakami doesn't get that luxury. He cant have his memory erased, she knows this and implants herself into his brain so that he knows all that she knows. 

The finals come up and they all study hard.. so he can take them to the beach. Funny, Kazumi said if she gets #2 after Murakami that she wants his virginity as a prize... Flash forward... she ends up 3rd... he takes 2nd and Kuroha ends up in 1st. She said she also wants 'A virginity'... no idea what she means. 

The reward for their test scores is a trip to the beach. They all seem to be having fun and promise to come back. 

Now, back to Valkyria... as an S-Rank witch they say she cant be controlled. The man claims that shes been sent out and he will take responsibility... They zoom out to her on top of a hill being happy shes out... when she turns around it looks like she's killed a group of people. Things don't look good for the MC and his witches.
