Hunter X Hunter

Hey Guys,

welcome to one of my favorite Manga series finally on DVD in Germany – Hunter x Hunter. There are two versions of this series. Nippon Animation produced in the year 1999 62 episodes of the Manga-Hit. Personally I like the old series more than the new on from 2011. Madhouse produced them and made 148 episode which includes every Arc from the Manga. Here we are talking about the new version of Hunter X Hunter.

Better than nothing?

Like I said before I love the first version of the series. It is not sooo close to the Manga than the new one. The old series played a little more with the scenario. I loved the other parts of the exam. The new version is not bad. The Animation is great and the story is great too. How could it not? Because this new version is a lot closer to the original than before – sadly they kinda left the whole part with Kaito out . We see the characters we love in exactly the same situations, with the same reaction that we loved. So the story is still great and made me want to reread the Manga.

Gon and his amazing journey

Hunter x Hunter is the story about Gon and his friends. Gon is a young boy who wants to find his father. Kaito is a Hunter Gon meets and who tells him that his father is a Hunter and still alive, but that he doesn’t want to be found. So Gon declares that he will become a Hunter and find his father. On this way Gons nice and also a little naive character makes it easy for him to find friends. Once a friend Gon will give everything for them.
In the Anime sometimes you think ‘Gon your are a Mary Stu’. But you just have to love him.

Friends for ever

Gon is not alone on his journey. On the first test he meets Leorio and Kuparika. Leorio wants to become a Hunter to get money. Really fast you find out that Leorio has a good heart and is a lot more than he lets on. From all the people we met in this adventure Leorio is the most normal person but that doesn’t stop him. Kuparika is the only survivor of his clan. He wants to become a Hunter to get revenge. These three built a team from the start and I love them and the trust and respect they develop really fast for each other.
Later there is another person that becomes a part of the team – Killuah. Killuah is in the same age as Gon and likes him from the start. He comes from a family of assassin and his already a really good one. He gets really fast bored. When he meets the group Killuah wants to be more than an assassin.

Watching or not

I just have the first Box-Set with 13 episodes. But they are good and solid. The characters are great and have amazing chemistry between them. I think that the Anime is worth watching it. Maybe you like the new one more than the old one or the other way around. But one thing is clear the story is amazing. So watch the series or read the Manga. The story is totally amazing. I love four babies and are happy to follow their adventures on their way to fulfill their dreams.

Children of the Whales

Hey Guys,

welcome to the new Netflix Anime ‘Children of the Whales’. When I started watching this series I didn’t know anything about it. For course I looked it up afterwards. There is a manga out already. It is called ‘Kujira no Kora wa Sajō ni Utau’ in Japan. VIZ media published it in America under the name ‘Children of the Whales’. The manga has 10 Volumes and is still going on. The Anime as 12 episodes and it seems that there will be two OVAs. I haven’t heard anything about a second season so far.
What I don’t is how much the first season covers of the manga. No clue.

A new world

The drawings are beautiful. I really love the way the anime looks. So beautiful. Like most fantasy stories this play is in world we don’t know. A world also our characters don’t know. The story takes place on a small island – this is not totally correct, but you will see when you watch the anime. It looks peaceful but also you get the feeling that something isn’t right there. The way the island is ruled is… wrong. Alone in the way the society is built is so much potential for problems and good stories.
So it is not really a surprise that my favorite character is the one that questioned all this stuff.

There is war out there

Of course the ‘peace’ get destroyed after they found a girl on one deserted island. They got attacked by soldiers. The Girl is the only one that knows what is really going on. Again in the society the girl lived in is so much potential for great stories. The whole series is full of potential great stories. But it stays… flat is not the right word.
The way they show the war and the meanings deaths. It is really great and you actually are so sad about the people you see dying and dying. You see the characters struggle with it. I love that part. I also love the inside of the main characters when people close to them die.
It is beautiful done.

Mysteries Nose (I didn’t found anywhere this is spelled)

I think the mystery stuff they have surrounding the islands. Is good and has a lot potential. I doesn’t want to say more about what is behind it, because I don’t want to spoiler the story. But I think that this stuff came to short and even shorter what it means to the characters. The secrets they find out in this season changes everything the characters believed in. This is not a little secret which doesn’t involve them. This secrets involve them, they are part of the secret.
They had few scenes were they actually shows exactly this but it is to short and to fast.

Watching or not

It is beautiful to look at. The characters are good and the story has a lot of potential. There can be great and amazing stories in it. Sadly in this season the for me interesting problems came way to short. But I hope that the two OVAs or a second season will take this problematic and make a great story out of it. So yeah… watch it – I think XP

Kuroko no Basket

Hey Guys,

welcome to my not so popular opinion about Kuroko no Basket. Every where I looked people say that this is an amazing series and the best sport anime ever… Yeah… definitely not. I was really disappointed and thought about stop watching all the time. So for the information I watched all three seasons and so obviously it is not so bad.

Sport or Fantasy

The first reason I am not a fan of Kuroko no Basket are all the special powers the 6 miracles have. Let’s start at the beginning. The middle school Teiko had a legendary Basketball club. They won all games and get to be known as the generation of miracles because they are so much better than any other talented player. This was the first were I thought okay maybe I should watch something different…
The story is about the sixth man of the generation of miracles the phantom player Kuroko. Apparently he has so the little presences that people just over look him and forget him in no time. The people on the court are asking them if the player actually was on the court. Which makes him amazingly good in passes…
So like this it goes on. So every member of the generation of miracles has one ability like that. For me it is too much. Yes let them be better than anyone… but they are so overdramatic and for my liking to much in the direction of fantasy.
All of these sixth members chose different high school and are now all enemies. All the other miracles chose schools with good basketball clubs and Kuroko is the only one chosing a little school nobody really knows about.

Kuroko the only exception

All the miracles believe that they are so good that they don’t need another player to win. Kuroko is the exception. He believes that basketball is a team sport and want to prove this by defeating the other miracles. Here cames the reason I stayed with the series. He chooses a light. Kagami is a really talented basketball player who wants to defeat the miracles just because they seem strong. The relationship that developes between Kagami and Kuroko is really amazing. I love their friendship how the help each other and save each other from theirselves. These two and their team – with filled with great and sympatric characters – starting their fight against the miracles. This team is so sweet that you wish them that they win.

Wrong image

But here is also a point I dislike. This playing with injuries. Choosing basketball over getting healed… I hate that this series tells you it is okay to play with bad injuries. It is not okay and when you are injured you should stop playing. Animes should tell other that this is okay. This is destroying your body and we shouldn’t teach that to our children.

The other miracles

There were a second reason to watch the show ’till the end and that was ‘Kikasa’ – Kise Ryouta and Kasamatsu Yukio. Kise is one of the miracles and one of the best characters when he actually start accepting his team and the reason behind it is his captain Kasamatsu. Yes I totally watched the last season only for scenes with them. I love these two.

Granblue Fantasy The Animation – Season 1

Hey Guys,

like everytime after the Connichi i have a big Anime and Manga phase. This year it is mostly Anime. I started with Haikyu!!, than Yuri on Ice and Kuroko no Basket (yes i will write about them too). Than i landed on this one ‘Granblue Fantasy’.

Fantasy the way i love it

This story is playing in totally amazing fantasy world. They made a whole world that you have to explore which so much room for a lot of adventures and sidestories. I really miss such Series so much. Of course the story is like most times the mysterious girl that has mysterious powers and finds people who join her on her adventure. I love mostly the world and the characters about this show. The story is good but nothing amazing or new. A story we have seen in thousand different ways. But the character are sweet and caring and it is really easy to feel with them.

This is a game

I am not sure if this is a negative point or a the reason for the charm the serie has. But you totally know that this is after a game. The way the whole serie is built screams game. It is as if you would can every moment start playing Gran. I didn’t know before that this is after a game… but just the first few minutes and it was so clear. It reminded me alot of Final Fantasy to be honest.

Watching or not

I definitly hope that the second season comes soon. The story is okay and everything else around it is amazing. I always love to see the different cities and landscapes of a great fantasy world. So this is totally me and now i want to play this game. Also it made me play Final Fantasy 9 again. I love this game and i haven’t played with the PS2 for years.

Episode 13

Just a short note. The season has 13 episode but only 12 are really about the main story. The last episode of the season is a bonus episode and has nothing to do with the season before. It is set in the future of a retake of the story with Gran being a girl…
Why we don’t know… the story of the episode is unnessassary and of course they all have to be in bikini to do it… yeah i am not a fan of the last episode. But maybe someone likes the episode.

Re:Hamatora

Hey Guys,

welcome to the long-awaited second season ‘Re:Hamatora’. It seems like i love the first season so much of Hamatora, that i had way to high exspections of the second season. The first three episodes doesn’t get me like the first season did. But the season is still good.

Three Months later

I find it really stupid how the season starts. The first season ended with Art shooting Nice. From the position and everything you could have thought that Art killed him. But it was clear that Nice isn’t dead.. it is like Buffy, the vampire slayer without Buffy. But first episode is telling us that Nice is dead. But somehow the don’t make me sad. The scenes are not tragic. The characters are like they always are. The talking about Sex-DVD’s and pour Coke over the griefing picture. It feels just stupid. Hajime eating the offerings for the deseased. You don’t see the characters griefing. Yes makes you smile a little but it is not the feeling i want in this episode.

Art

Art is the big mysterious this season. Something changed Art and we don’t know what it is and why he seems so different and in the same time not so much. I really get what Nice tries to tell that somehow the way he act is totally Art but the reason behind it seems different. I love Art and i love the relationship Art and Nice have. Because i think that this is one of the most interessting one. Sadly when i look bad at the whole season it seems like the just forget that fact. Arts way of acting that has somehow nothing to do with Nice. At some point at the serie i actually stopped caring. What he did had so much influence of the people around him – people i love that i just wanted him to be stopped. Of course we get explained what changed Art and what he tries to achief…but with that Art lost a lot. He is so stupid and dump and actually i thought that he would know better. But the ending just let the feeling in me to hug him tell him that he is a stupid idiot, so dump and wrong but still never let him go.

Problems with the Minimum

Between the whole Art problematic and a few minimum terrorist or like they call them revolutionärs, they also have problems with their minimum. It seems like it begann to have side effects and maybe even vanish. The question is why is it like that and what will it do to the characters. How essential is the Minium for the whole being? What is an interessting question which leds to another question what is the Minimum? Is it something bad? Something good? Can we live without it?

The worst

In season two they started something that really annoyed my and also destroyed alot of the feeling of the serie. When the scene changed we got a picture of the scene with a zooming sound and that happens like 10 time in one episode. It is so annoying. In the last episode of the season it doesn’t disturb so much. Maybe it isn’t so often anymore or you just become accustomed to it. But it really is the worse thing the did in this season.

Wachting or not

The start is a little weak and somehow a few things feel of in the season but in the end everything get explained. We got the background story about Arts brother and of Hajime even about the Chief and his waitress (sorry i can’t remember her name). We got dramatic and see more about relationships. Ratio and Birthday, Nice and Murasaki… Nice and Hajime… everything is there. In the last six episodes everything is harmonising perfectly. The story, the characters and the humor and also the depth in it. Of course it is not Psycho Pass deep but it is enough for this serie. So yes watch it. Now i am waiting for a movie that explain the background of their informant. Because that is the only thing that we didn’t get explained in this season.

Detektiv Conan/ Closed Case: Movie 19

Hey Guys,

i am a big fan of Detektiv Conan or in english i think it is called Closed Case. I fall in love with it at the first episode and started to read the Manga. Now i have 88 volumes of the Manga standing in my cupboard and 19th movies – okay to are still missing because i wanted to have the special edition. But i think you can totally see that i love Conan. I don’t get tired of it like many of my friends. I love it still the same – when not even more – when i first watched it. For me didn’t lost any of his magic. A few characters – especially Ran – are problematic in a way that she is a really sweet girl and you would totally like her if this story wouldn’t play with out time. Her is getting on your nerves with Conan and Shinichi and she never get’s it. That is one problem of the lenght of it but everything else i love. The most of course Heiji and Kaito Kid (a pair i ship instat of Shinichi and Kaito). I started even watching Kaitos own Anime Kaito Kid/Magic Kaito. The movies are always nice to watch and like you all can think now the ones with Kaito Kid are my favorites.

Still nice but doesn’t satisfy

Normaly the only point at the Conan movies i don’t really like (but just because i can’t japanese) are the quiz of the Professor. They are always word quiz that only function in japanese. But this movie is a little disapointing. I have high standards and the Conan Movies got better from Movie to Movie. Sadly this was a step back. The story is quite nice. It is about the sunflowers of Van Gogh (here can learn something xP).
Than Kaito Kid seems to want to steal the sunflowers that Sonokos grandfather bought or not?
Because is not stealing them. He is just making a big show out of it. That everyone would think that he is just promoting Sonokos grandfather.
But until than everything is fine. Kid got a show and we love him for it and when he came on board as Shinchi we all know that this will be fun. Than the let down starts.

Spoilers – Conans failure

Kaito Kid is a kind of a person that is acting like he has a code. He is only stealing juwels and he is always giving them back (without money). Everyone who nows him apart from Detektiv Conan/Closed Case, knows that he is only stealing us Kaito Kid because he search for a special juwel, which was the reason for death of is father. He wants to find them. This is his motivation. Of course he also has fun with it but this stands behind it. Kaito Kid is also someone who will try to save everyone he can and Conan totally know that. He made Kid at so many occasions. Kaito Kid saved Conans life on regular basis. He came to a wizard meeting to stop a murder. This kind of guy is Kid and Conan knows that.
So why his he not knowing that something totally different is going on? Kaito Kid stealing a picture? Kaito Kid should be responisble for an exploision a plane? That is stupid and Conan should know that. Conan should also know that Kid would not want money. He should know that something different is going on but he doesn’t. He take the whole movie to find out what we knows from the start. Kaito is not stealing the picture, he is protecting them and something totally different is going on there. The whole freaking movie. Kaito is acting as Shinichi. This alone should tell Conan that something is going on.
Also the whole case doesn’t get closed by Conan. No Kaito is telling him everything that is going on. So he is just telling everyone what Kid told him. That is a detektiv… also the last quiz of Kid was quite obvious. With all the hints to the apostels and the picture of the communion from Da Vinci. He should have getting behind the quiz earlier. The only good thing about this is that Kid is seeing at the same and tells Conan that he thought that Conan would come behind the quiz faster.

The movie should wear the name Detektiv Conan/Closed Case it should be called Kaito Kid. Because he did all the work. Closed the case, got the evidence, saved the pictures and saved Ran…and Conan just ran after him without even having a clue what really is going on there.

Watching or not (still with spoilers)

So yeah watch it for Kaito Kid, but still one point left that i dislike. The solution is unsatisfied. The motive of the murderer is quite stupid… i mean really stupid…
Also the way Kaito Kid found out about what is going on is not quite satisfied. But this can also be that the translation wasn’t quite right or not clear enough. But in german it sounds like Kid got an Whats Up acount as Kaito Kid and everybody can call him and give him jobs.

The only thing that would made sense would be if he got the job from his butler and he wanted to steal the pictures for him and when he researched and spoted everything out he found out about the other thing. It is not the best solution, it still doesn’t make totally sense but better than someone leaving him a voice mail…

Tokyo Ghoul √A

Hey Guys,

the first season of ‘Tokyo Ghoul’ got me very fast, but the second season ‘Tokyo Ghoul √A’ is not so convincingly. When i started watching the second season i hadn’t read the Manga yet. So i can’t say if it is better or not as that. But what i can say is that the Anime is going a differnet way than the Manga.

Kaneki

The last season endend with Kaneki on a crossroad. He thinks that he needed to change and do bad things when it is for the rigth reasons.
So he eat Jason, who had tortured him and joins the group Aogiri. This decision is not really explained. It kinda comes out of nowhere. Jason, who also was a member of the Aogiri tortured him and Kaneki accepts not is Ghoul part but Riz from which he has the organs. This is a big differents. So he beginns to eat Jason, but why he came from that to joining the same group is behind me. I am sure that it has something to do with protecting who is important to him. Because if that is not the case it doesn’t get along with the character we already knew.
But we got very, very little scense with him.

Antique

We see alot about Toka and Himori. It is alot talking and very slow. Toka is not one of my favorite but it is alot about the girls living with Kanekis decision. Nishiki is getting also very little screen time.
But i definitly want more of Hide. He seems to know alot more than he let on. For me it is clear that he heart the conversation in the first season from Kaneki and the owner of the Antique. So he knows that Kaneki is a Ghoul. But it seem like i am the only one that seems to see it that way.

Alot of unanswered questions

We got alot new characters and the backstories are mostly really amazing. But i am sad that the old characters fall into the background and we got not enough information about the new persons. So much doesn’t make sense. Why are so many humans now Ghouls? Why would anyone do something like that? What has the whole storyline from the first part of the second season to do with the second part which is emotionally amazing and really good. Also it brings us characters back to the person they were.

Watching or not

Truth be told. If a season 3 will come i will be watching. This season was big let down for me. It is not that apparently the story is different form the Manga. I have no problem with that. My problem is that the decision is not logic and that we don’t get an explaination for it. We got so many new characters so many plotlines that ends nowhere. The last part of the season is emotionally bringing me down. It is final that makes my cry and break down it is for me the niveau of the first season but it doesn’t conacted with the first part of this season for me? Why is Kaneki now going back when we not even know he even started to leave. What was the reason for all the characters we never say again and never get really explained like the twins? Why are they Ghouls when they were human. Who made them Ghouls. Have i missed a few episodes? Because all that doesn’t make any sense for me. So yes i would watch it but it is totally a don’t watch this season…

Hamatora: Season 1

Hey Guys,
when i visited the Connichi 2015 i looked into the serie Hamatora. The first to episodes were alot of fun and seemed like it could become very dark. So i bought it. If it really holds what i thought it promised me we will see here.

Simular

The first thing that came to my mind was that it is very simular to Get Backers. What is actually not a bad thing. I loved Get Backers. It was a funny serie with amazing characters and a very dark theme. Everything a story needed the only thing that was bad about Get Backers was the fanservice and that sometimes the sidecharacters had more story than my favorite maincharacters.
The setting is very simular they seem to be bancrot all the time, have mysterious powers and have their office in a cafe and are detektives. Even the two main characters are simular. Nice is a lot like Ginji. He is sweet, don’t care about money, he cares about people, and seems a little unwordly but just at the first look. Behind that they have a deep life experience and knows that he is important.
Murasaki is the one that looks at the money and is cool and don’t show much of his feelings, but cares alot behind that mask.
From the way the ‘enemy’ is acting it reminds me of Psycho Pass and that is not a bad thing either.

Two teams

So there are these one team Nice and Murasaki. Hajime is a girl that is often with them. She is always eating something and is the reason for alot of funny scenes. I am sure that she has powers too, but in the first two episode is nothing seen of it.
Than there is another Hamatora team – Bithday and Ratio. The team dynamic is simular. Birthday is the one that is always wants fun. He is flirting, eating and making magic tricks. Ratio is the silent guy that has problems showing his feelings – like they are alien to him.

Minimum Holder

That is the name for the people like the Hamatora crew – people with powers. It seems like these powers are no secret. Some people have this power and are so different to the other peoples. It also looks in the first two episodes that a few doctors seems to work with them. Which mostly isn’t something good. There are people like the Hamatora crew that take these powers to do good things and of course people they always met that using them to do bad things. So at first it looks very simple and the cases in the first to episodes seems more like fun cases but the cases in the second episode makes a turn and become very cruel. Also we learn from the first episode on that there is a serial killer that kills only Minimum Holder. So alot of potential to become more.

The Enemy

The one that seems to be responsibly for many things like the synthetic minimum holder going on his account. But is he responsibly for the murder? He is a little crazy but this is what makes it so interessting. He is working for a world were everyone is the same. He wants to make people stronger. But he opinion about strenght is not really right. For him people how can kill people are the strong ones and the people who want to punish them are the weak.

Relationships

Birthday and Ratio are pretty good team and always together. They have a conaction… they depend on each other. Ratio needs Birthday to live his life the way he does. Without Birthday he want fall into the deep black.
Alot of the stuff that is spoken about is about sameness, about being equal in their abilities. Can someone who is not a minimum holder be equal to a minimum holder and can they be friends. Can they conexist and give each other what they need? This is what this is all about. Art seems to not have minimum and is Nice friend. Sadly we don’t have much about the relationship between these two. I really hope we will have this relationship explored in season two.
Murasaki and Nice has also a really interessting dynamic. It seems like Murasaki is fighting to get Nice attention. Murasaki was always the best and than Nice came. Here again it is sad that we didn’t saw much about the relationship between them.

The End (with spoilers)

The serie is about tolerance, about being different and what it can mean. It is about human nature, about power and what to do with it. It is about choices and the serie is making a job. The serie is fun and gives us themes to think about. It is honest and warm and also cold and real.
It is sad that the relationship did come a little short but i hope this will come in season two.
And this season i need to watch now -right now.
How could they let it and like that? To everyone who had watch it (no spoilers for season two please), why do you think Art shot him? Do you think he really shot him? Why is Art still alive?

Kaito Kid: Season 1 – Part 1

Hey Guys,
after a long time i found time to watch Kaito Kid. I love Kaito Kid. He is a great character and the episodes with him are one of the best in Detektiv Conan. I always role for him and not for Conan. There are a few things that totally could find more screen time in Detektiv Conan.
Many people which just watching Detektiv Conan, have a wrong picture about Kaito and Sugaru. Kaito Kid returns all the things he stole, because he just trying to find the murder of his father. The second thing is that Sugaru knows that Kaito Kuruba is Kaito Kid and that they have with all that knowledge interessting friendship. So what do i expect from that serie is accectly that.

Kaitos Reason

One of the strong points of the Anime are that they point the things out. Kaito Kid is stealing as long as he search for the murder of his father. The give this time it deserves and shows us that he did return all the things he stole. That is really important because this is the biggest part of Kaitos character. He wants to entertain people, he wants to make them laugh, to believe in miracles. He is a good person. A person who wants to protect people that are close to him but also everyone else.

Family

Here we have to points to talk about. First of all, i like how they portayed the relationship of the Nakamuras and the Kurubas. That the Nakamuras are Kaitos family is becoming here much clearer than in the manga. But also the are giving his mother and father a backstory, that isn’t in the manga and really is for my a little stupid and like everyone is saying in the anime ‘to chessy’. Also the every day a advice thing is not logic for me and is desturbing the flow of the story.

The little Storys

A good point is that they take time for the little Storys. For the story with Aoko and the adventure in the school at night. They make sure that this mostly like the Manga and that is for me a really good point. But they to a really bad thing that is totally trouble me, that is Sugaru. He is an really improtant character in the manga. He is important for Kaito and his developement, he is important for the story. He is a reason we love the serie so much. Because he and Kaito are friends in a way. But at night he is chasing Kaito and he knows. He knows that Kaito Kid is Kaito Kuruba. This is a really important thing and i don’t understand why the take that out of the serie. He was just one time there. That is not enough that is the worst.

Gueststars

Of course they did the Story with Shinichi again and also they make a story with Conan, Ran and Sonoko what is accatual really fun to watch. But the Story with mother is just not mine. So no… also Kaito kid is inspired by the fiend with twenthy face and to make a another version of this it just seems to much.
The Fiend with twenthy face is a really good character and i love to read the books over him and if you interessted in crime storys and like the japanese style of writting just go and buy the rampo edogawa storys.
