For example Soultaker goes completely crazy with the color scheme. Naturally after 7 years of anime the newness starts to fade a bit -_- so I became a lot more pickier and tried some weird anime that experiment visually or story wise. The nostalgia made it better than the show normally would merit. I saw it again about a year ago and I liked it less then the first time but not as much as I expected (seeing it’s a standard harem show).
AI YORI AOSHI TINA SERIES
The fact that he’s not crazy about it probably means my own appreciation of the series is more than the show would normally merit.Ībout Tina the American and her breast-grabbing The fact that he’s sticking with it means the show probably isn’t the crap I feared it was. I’ve been eager for him to try the series, although I really expected him to stop somewhere on the first disc because he’d seen it a hundred times already. Now Steven is watching it, and he’s seen easily an order of magnitude more anime than I have. I’ll always view it through those rose-colored glasses that only a new otaku can wear. I still can’t be objective about the show. Then there a plot justification to keep him from just running off with his chosen girl. All the girls dig him, although some do so more overtly than others. The show has a slightly different premise than the standard harem comedy (in this case the lead character is fully committed to one female at the outset, instead of being some sad-sack who can’t make up his mind) but it still hits all the harem comedy tropes: You’ve got one guy surrounded by a few pretty and unaccountably single girls, you have your beach episode, the harvest festival, and many chances for the guy to fall into preposterous and compromising situations with the girls. I really enjoyed it, but as I took in more shows I looked back and wondered how much of the appeal wasn’t the newness of anime itself.
(My own synopsis is here.)Īi Yori Aoshi is the second anime I’d ever watched, right after Cowboy Bebop. It’s very interesting to see his reactions to the series.
