CLANNAD Episode 8



*Sniff* This episode was so sad... So very sad. It was heart wrenching. The previous episodes have already basically said Fuuko will disappear soon, but to think the day was approaching so quickly. I wonder if Okazaki and Nagisa will remember her. I really hope they do.

The scene where Sanae starts crying, falling to her knees, apologizing and rambling, while reassuring the now invisible Fuuko was probably the tear jerking scene of the episode. Granted, the entire episode was weep worthy.

La Corda D'Oro ~primmo passo~



Genre: Music, High School, Romance
Summary:
Hino Kahoko is a normal 'General Student' at her high school. The school is split between the General Students and the Music Students. I think that's self-explanatory there, so I won't go into details. Anyway, every few years, the school holds the concours in which several Music Students compete. There are a total of four performances. Hino Kahoko is coerced into participating in the concours thanks to a mischievous little fairy named Lily. The fairy gave her a magical violin, and Kahoko reluctantly agreed. Bewildered and completely new to this musical world and surrounded by amazingly talented Music Students, what's she to do?

I loved this anime from the very beginning. It makes me want to play the game. As soon as I get the PS3, I am so getting this shipped to me from Japan. >>;

It's such a sweet anime although it is filled with typical characters. There's the stoic one, awkward one, shy one, outgoing one, cunning one, etc etc etc... but it makes for a very entertaining show. Moreover, this time I'm 'okay' with the heroine. I usually hate the heroines of anime because they're all the same. Bah!

New Anime! Lots of them!

It's a little late, but I'm sure everyone has noticed the slew of new anime this season.

I'm watching the following:

CLANNAD
Rental Magica

Night Wizard

Shakugan no Shana II
Shugo Chara!

So far, I'm loving them except I'm slowly losing my interest in Night Wizard. I don't know why I am since I love action and magic, but I really am losing my interest in it. Maybe if it gets more interesting, I'll like it again.

Naruto Shippuuden. Sai has finally showed up. I'm really happy about that. He's so funny. I don't know why so many people don't like him. He's great comic relief!

BLEACH. Everyone realizes we've entered filler mode again, right? Well, if not, then let me tell you, "We've entered filler mode again! DAMN IT!" I don't understand why they do this. -.- It pisses me off.



Shakugan no Shana II. I really like where it's going. We're finally dealing with character depth and relations.



CLANNAD. This is probably my favorite anime of the new season. It's different from what I usually like (such as action, magic, martial arts), but it's a very sweet and deep anime. Maybe that's why I like it? There's also such unique and cute people! You have to watch it. ^^ I've also fallen in love with its OP song.
