The Amazing World of an Otaku

Okay! These days I seem to be into Shojo(Shoujo) Romance/Comedy manga and anime, that, and Magical Girl Series. And I want to get you suckers into them (: All of the reviews and summaries are written by me with images from Google and some information from Wikipedia that I have written in my own words.This is also to make up for the 6 posts I missed <(｡◕‿◕｡)> if not.... щ(ಥДಥщ) (Shojo-Girl Shojo Manga Girl Manga)

The Animation Changed Somewhat
Drastically.
Characters Top Left To Right Fuko, Tomoyo, Nagisa(center),
Kyou and Kotomi

Clannad & Clannad After Story ~ 2 seasons 23 episodes each. A total of 11 books. Has a Dating Sim. Created by Key.
Clannad first came out as a dating sim in 2004 and was one if the biggest projects Jun Maeda, a part of Key, developed. Nagisa who becomes the main heroine of the manga/anime had the longest route so there were many disputes concerning it. It was an all ages PSP, Xbox, and Windows game, to say the least.
The first 8 volumes were serialized from May 2005- April 2009 written by Key and illustrated by Juri Misaki

The First Manga Volume Cover

Key has a way to touch at the heart strings. They also produced Air and Kanon, though I've ever seen Kanon I have seen Air and both it and Clannad can make you cry, Clannad, even if you've never seen before After Story scenes can make you cry like no other. Clannad is about Tomoya Okazaki a third year high school-er who dislikes his life and do to the fact he gets an injury making it impossible for him to do what he always wanted, basketball, he gets a lot of time on his hands and starts to help shy-timid Nagisa with re-opening the disbanded drama club. During this time Tomoya meets all sorts of girls who all have their own issues that he helps them out with. After Story is easy to spoil so I'll try my best not to. After Story is Tomoya's life after high school with said chosen heroine and there's 5 total heroines he chooses from. As they go through life Tomoya finds his own obstacles in his way, some he can't seem to stop from happening but tries his best to mend. I originally watched the anime, Clannad, as a recommendation from my brother. 5/5 stars. English Dub is available in America and you can download the Dating Sim online.

Gakuen Alice ~ 1 season 26 episodes. 26 volumes up to date. Has game-boy games. Written and illustrated by Tachibana Higuchi. Gakuen Alice is translated to Alice Academy.

Mikan On Volume 1 's Cover

Gakuen Alice was first produced in February 2003 and, hopefully, will have one final book to conclude and answer certain questions us fans ask. It is the third series Higuchi has made and it is also the longest out of them. Gakuen Alice is not necessarily a Magical Girls series as it is more of a supernatural, romance, school life, and even a tragedy. Gakuen Alice or 'GA' made me angry, sad, happy, and a whole bunch of other emotions all mixed together all throughout the series which is a feeling I think extremely good manga that you get sucked into produce , like one of the times you just want to stick a knife in a character's heart and right after want to plain snuggle them. Ambitious and always optimistic girl, Mikan Sakura, is the main protagonist of the story as well as Natsume Hyuuga, Ruka(Luka) Nogi, and Hotaru Imai. The story starts off as Hotaru is leaving their peaceful to go to a prestigious academy in Tokyo leaving her best friend, Mikan, alone causing Mikan dismay. After a tearful farewell Mikan sends letters to Hotaru every other day with no reply for 6 months until one gets through saying," Dear Idiot, It's hot send me watermelons. -Hotaru," leaving Mikan furious. The next day at school Mikan, as miserable as always, hears another student say that Gakuen Alice is like a jail and have the government on their side and pay the family's of their students money as long as the students are there, making it sound like a hell hole to Mikan. She sets off to Gakuen Alice not telling her grandfather leaving him angry and worried. Once arrived she bumps into two grown men who ask her if she's trying to get into the academy, Mikan tells them her story and the men tell her that the only way in is through the back entrance they tell her that they will take her there but yet another man appears who is named Narumi and surprisingly when he asked the other men what they planned to do with Mikan they came clean and said how they were going to kidnap her and ask for ransom and Narumi told them to leave and go home and they, again, obeyed his order. Narumi tells Mikan to do the same and stares blankly at the feminine man and in the anime she says,"Oh I get it now! You're a woman!" and in the manga she responds,"Are you a transvestite? This is the first time I've ever seen one before!" Leaving Narumi shocked. Once again Mikan tells her story and Narumi tells her how he happens to be a teacher there when suddenly there's an explosion and appears the boy named Natsume. Narumi gets out a form of a whip and after capturing Natsume he and Mikan make it inside and tells Mikan to watch Natsume whilst he's gone for a few minutes. Another teacher walks in and sees Mikan and explains that if Natsume wakes up to pull the alarm switch on the wall. Natsume wakes up ad threatens to set Mikan's hair on fire after grabbing it, though, ones again what he had planned failed. In a final attempt at success he steals her skirt(anime) or her panties(manga) and she freaks out Narumi and the other teacher named Misaki walk i and find them never the less, Natsume escapes with his friend Ruka and calls Mikan 'Strawberry Panties' to anger her. Mikan is now registered as a student and finds Hotaru in her same class and once she gets to the classroom she sees pictures flying along with a student and other strange abilities and is forced to sit next to Natsume and Ruka! Mikan scores number one on most of my lists such as cutest, kindest, saddest character development and many others. Mikan is 10 years old as of the 1st manga and 12 as of the latest ones. Anime and manga have many differences such as the fact the anime never solved questions the manga does and doesn't span too far into the series and the only antagonist is Reo. Both the anime opening and ending are sung by Kana Ueda, the voice of Japanese Mikan. Anime gets 3.5/5 stars as the manga gets my full 5/5.
The manga's artwork was much better than the anime's was in my opinion.

Ichigo On Volume 1's Cover

Yumeiro Patissiere & Yumeiro Patissiere Professional ~ 2 seasons 50 episodes, 1st season 13 episodes 2nd season. Has DS games. Created by Natsumi Matsumoto. Yumeiro Patissiere is Dream Colored Pastry Maker. A total of 10 manga volumes. It's about a 14 year old girl named Ichigo Amano who has a knack for knowing what ingredients are in a sweet and to fully comprehend the idea behind it. Her only real skill would be what she likes to call her 'second stomach just for sweets.' She's a total klutz and believes that every one is kind and is taken advantage of throughout the series due to that fact. Ichigo goes to see her sister, Natsume's, piano performance and afterwords goes to a Sweets Festival and meets Henri Lucas. After trying some of his cooking and perfectly understanding the meaning of it and clarifying it as 'First Love' Henri and she talk and he tells her how there's a school of young patisssiere-to-be that she should go to she becomes inspired ad decides to go but during the time before going she doesn't practice or learn anything about cooking so she knows nothing about cooking! When she goes there she meets three boys who are referred to as 'The Sweets Princes' Makoto Kashino, Satsuki Hanabusa, and Sennosuke Andou each with their own favorite kind of sweet to prepare but are amazing all around at preparing. As it turns out because of Henri's recommendation to the school she is put in the elite team in the cooking class and so everyone has such high standards on her! She fails at what they are preparing and tells everyone how she knew nothing about what it takes to be a patisserie and so Kashino talks poorly of her and tells her to quit, sadly, she almost takes his advise and tries to leave and go back home. Instead of leaving she heads back to the cooking room and practices the dish she had failed but still fails. All of a sudden a small creature that is named Vanilla and is a self proclaimed 'Sweets Fairy' appears and tells Ichigo that she can grant her, her wish; to be a patissiere! As it turns out Vanilla cannot just make Ichigo a great patissiere, Vanilla can only coach her. Ichigo excepts and they spend all throughout the night practicing until Ichigo makes a perfect one. Ichigo decides to stay at the school and try not to let things get her down so easily. Unlike the professionals say I, once again, give it a 5/5 stars!

Chocolat Featured on Vol. 1 Cover

Sugar Sugar Rune ~ 1 season 51 episodes 8 volumes. Created by Moyoco Anno. Alternative name Sugar² Rune. Sugar Sugar Rune follows 2 witches on their quest to become the next queen of their world but in order to do that they must go to the human world and make boys fall in love with them and collect their hearts! Each heart has a different value and its called 'ecure' such as honey or 'pee' colored gives 5 ecure, the lowest ecure value. The witches themselves cannot fall in love because they only have one heart and would die and if they were to fall in love with a human they would be forced to be a familiar who assume the body of an animal such as frog, mouse, or cat as an example. Humans regenerate hearts so it's okay to steal theirs. The whole Magical Kingdom is run on Ecure from anywhere. The main protagonist's name is Chocolat which is french for Chocolate and her best friend who she is competing against, Vanilla, as well as many other characters such as Queen Candy, who is Vanilla's mother or Cinnamon, Chocolat's mother. Chocolat is a tomboyish girl with long, orange hair that could be mistaken as a shade of pink and emerald eyes Her parents had both died leaving her with her grandfather but they didn't make her sad. Vanilla is shy and timid and has short blonde hair with violet eyes she had no friends before Chocolat and tries to be smarter since she had no friends. In the magical kingdom creepy things such as bugs are cute and shy and timid people are not popular or cute only tomboys and cruel people and things like crying were funny to others but in the human world it's the opposite. Since everything was lop sided Chocolat was at a disadvantage since she already introduced herself in a bad way and Vanilla already had so many admirers so she was ahead. Chocolat goes for quality of ecure as Vanilla goes for quantity. 4/5 stars.

Matsuri(top) Watanuki(bottom left)
Andou(bottom right) on Volume 1

Mobius Doumei ~ 5 volumes. No anime. Created by Minami Sachi. Separate name Secret Alliance.
Mobius Doumei is a love triangle manga that's tied together with secrets. Matsuri Takanose is the main female who is also referred to as Chairman Jr. due to the fact her mother is the chairman and is feared by all her peers because of that and her intelligence she has two secrets that she can't tell anyone especially her strict and scary mother they are that she wishes to be a photographer and not the next chairman and that she is in love with the mysterious idol that every one loves at the time, MITSUKI. She meets two boys who seem very different ad they actually talk to her! Andou and Watanuki don't talk to each other and refuse to even acknowledge each other but what happens if they happen to be involved with Mitsuki? The three of them learn each others secret's and form an alliance so no one finds them out beside those three. What would happen if the two boys fall in love with oblivious Matsuri? Who knows? I haven't finished the last of the books yet! 3.5/5 stars the artwork could be weird sometimes and the story line fell a little but it's still very enjoyable. A good read that won't take long.

Fucking Frozen Eggs e_e

God dammit, I forgot to post to you lovely people for 6(?) days... I apologize, to make up for it I will post, like, 6 posts to make up for it. Okay, IMMA DO AN EXPERIMENT!!! HOW LUCKY FOR YOU(OR NOT)!!!! It turns out if you put eggs in a fridge and they have a minor crack or a huge one but don't open they freeze. I now how six with me and I'm going to do random shit with them. #1. Put my bug bite in one(for some dumbass reason). #2. Put one in the microwave for a minute(no point to it, much?). #3. Attempt at cooking it. #4. Plain smash one(on purpose). #5. Juggle c;. #6. It thawed...
Results: 1. nothing it was fucking cold I also squashed it. 2. It semi cooked e_e(I also had something shitty happen to me during that experiment ohhoho). 3. Attempt at cooking = watery looking crap. this makes no fucking sense and yeah. 4. e_e I smashed it. 5. I juggled it until I reached the frozen yolk e_e. 6. It thawed... To make up for 6 I cut open the yolk from #5 c; .
Now, I can try all these again but with regular eggs or be an ass and tell

One From The Microwave

you guys to do it yourself. I would do it again but then that would be a
waste so I'm gonna be an ass and say do it yourself. c;
~~Fuck y'all next time~~ I MEAN, ahem, See you all on the next post! So I'll put that up next like promise ~sniff~ ;_; \( - ^ - )/
