Summer Season 2012 Anime Ending

The season has finally comes to the end as we start to realize seeing the word "Final" behind the title of the anime. Unlike any other season, this season ended unexpectedly exciting. I strongly appreciate the endings to not be unresolved. Most anime this season has wrapped up everything quite nice. Here I have listed a few final impression of my favourite anime.

Accel World

Accel World ended dramatically, especially the ending battle. Haruyuki-kun certainly didn't disappoint us by not showing any mercy in the end. This is quite unexpected because in most anime, we have a stereotype main character who always want to do anything that is right. The fact that Haruyuki ended Nomi's life while he begging for mercy is certainly one of the best scene.

Take this!
There is also another part in the ending that has to do with Kuroyukihime senpai that is funny. The expression was really awesome.

What?!
Haruyuki the Rocketman

Campione!

The story of the one who can steal a power of god, a campione! This series involved a lot of awesome kissing. If you like to see some kissing anime, this one is for you. Kusanagi Godou slaying Metis with Athena's blessing is probably one of the greatest scene with kissing a loli. It is one good intense kissing anime to remember.

Now the big brother has to face his onee-chan.

My onii-chan!
You ready for this?

Oda Nobuna no Yabou

The ending of Oda Nobuna is pretty awesome with the fire burning the entire mountain.   The story plot line is really intense that it drags me through all the way from its begging to the end. As we expected in the end of the anime, the monkey returned from that dead! This is probably the most logical ending in anime, but in the way that it is touching and awesome, especially when Nobuna had to face the final boss by herself.

Insane final boss with awesome background
The money returned when everything comes to a conclusion.

My monkey is here~

VCON 37 2012 Preview

ABOUT VCON 37

"VCON is a weekend-long combination of playing, learning, brainstorming, and partying.We don't limit ourselves to one area of science fiction and fantasy experience. We celebrate the whole spectrum, which includes: literature and writingartmovies and TVmodels and collectablesgaming (video games, cards, board games, role playing) cosplay, comics & graphic novels, music, history and trivia, astronomy, space programs past and present, unusual science. We also like to explore the glue that holds it all together: us. Not just VCON (although we’d like to think we do our share) but all those with an interest for what lies beyond the status quo of reality." (From VCON 37)

Impression

If I have to describe in a word what is my general impression, I will say that it is unique. It contributes to different type of entertainment which is different from anime. I think it would be quite an enjoyable experience there. I look forward to see everyone there!

Cos & Effect 2012

August 24 to 26 @ University of British Columbia

ABOUT COS & EFFECT

Cos & Effect is an annual costume, cosplay, and alternative fashion convention that takes place in Vancouver BC. Featuring workshops, informational and fan-run panels, contests, competitions, dances, special guests, artists, vendors, and more. Unleash your creativity!

Impression

After being to this convention, the major difference I felt from Anime Revolution 2012 is the panels. It has way more rooms for an overall positive interaction with people. Although there people who been to other cons find panels boring, this convention is nothing like that. Most of the panels are very well planned. I am very impressed with panels, especially the one about pokemon. It completely changes my childhood impression. I didn't know the game can be this interesting. They seriously did an excellent job in those panels. I enjoyed the panels with my fullest energy to the end when I finally accidentally fell asleep in the panel room on the second day. I actually felt bad for to leave the panel before it ended. Overall, the convention is still a lot of fun despite the fact that there aren't a lot of vendors and main events. The panels are worth the money.


Who did we find here?

We found Derick Chiou from Prince of Wales Anime Club!
Anime: Steins;Gate
Character: Rintarou Okabe

Mardock Scramble The First Compression

As we are beginning to look what will happen next season, we should also look at some awesome anime movies. Since this is the first post on Anime movie review, I will make it much simple for the readers to follow along.

The Anime Movie that we are going to introduce to you is called Mardock Scramble The First Compression. There is also a sequel follow after this named The Second Combustion. If I must compare between the two, I will definitely say the first is much better.


As the story of begins, the 15-year-old prostitute Rune Balot was rescued by a doctor after an incident that nearly killed her. Using the prohibited technology, the doctor made Rune Balot's life forever changed. Rune was given a chance to investigate and revenge the man who tried to kill her. In the story, Rune was constantly struggling with her internal conflict of thinking herself is messed up. However, the mouse, Oeufcoque, successfully comfort her about her past.








As Rune was dealing with her personal law court affair, the enemies are beginning their moves. The attack push the movie to the ultimate climax! Although Rune was pretty good at beating up people, she crossed the line that she shouldn't have crossed!

The fighting scenes were very awesome. Seeing the flexible moves, I really think Rune is pretty amazing! It is worth the time watching it.




Mardock Scramble The First Compression is definitely an amazing anime movie that people should watch and appreciate its scenes. I will totally recommend it to people who are looking for some heavy taste movies.
