12 Days of Anime Christmas - Day Six

Day six- End of Naruto

                Naruto has a very old connection for me. I’ve told this story before, but I first found manga through Shonen Jump. I was obsessed with Yugioh, and I saw Yugi on the cover of a strange magazine and I had to get it. But in that magazine I discovered so many new things. I read One Piece, my manga series of all time. I found Sand Land, a mange done by the incredible Akira Toriyama. And I found a little manga about a ninja in orange with a fox demon in him. I discovered Naruto 12 years ago. And this year it just ended. 

12 Days of Anime Christmas - Day Five

Day Five- Studio Trigger

I’ve never really been a big follower of any particular animation studio. While I could recognize Studio Bonez or J.C. Staff or in the very least knew the names, I never considered myself a fan of any particular one or another, or a follower of any particular studio. But in the past year that has changed. I might actually consider myself an actual fan of Studio Trigger. 

12 days of Anime Christmas - Day Four

Day Four- Orenchi no Furo Jijou

As you may know, I watch a lot of micro series. A micro series, for those who don’t know, are any show that is unrealistically short, around 5-10 minutes, but usually less than 5. There have been a few this year, Tonari no Seki-kun makes the cut in my mind, Strange + and its sequel, the lesbian animal girl show Inugami-san to Nekoyama-san, but the show I want to talk about today is the homoerotic merman anime, Orenchi no Furo Jijou.

Twelve Days of Anime Christmas - Day Three

Day Three- Majin Bone

The bands all here

After two days of talking about transforming five man bands and guys in armor fighting monsters and other armored guys, let’s talk about a five man band who transform into armor and fight other guys in armor. Wait… But anyway, let’s talk about Majin Bone.

12 Days of Anime Christmas - Day Two

Day two- Kamen Rider

Like Super Sentai, every year there are two Kamen Rider seasons, one that ends and one that begins. Unlike Super Sentai, the show with the longer run time over the year is the old show, while the new show only gets the last few weeks of the year. As such, I am going to flip the order of what I am writing about, first talking about the current series and then about the one that ended a few months ago. Let’s first look at Kamen Rider Drive.

12 Days of Anime Christmas

12 Days of anime Christmas

So for the Christmas season I’ve decide to do the 12 days of anime Christmas. For those who don’t know what it is, here’s the long and short of it. http://thecartdriver.com/12-days-of-anime-project-call-to-arms-christmas-2014/ basically for the 12 days up to Christmas, and Christmas itself, I will be making a post a day about something that has happened in the past year that is anime related. From just talking about shows I liked to specific moments and many other things. So let’s start this off with a bang for day one. 

Garo: Honoo no Kokuin ep 7-8-9

Garo: Honoo no Kokuin 

It is coming to the end of the semester for me, so writing these weekly posts are getting a bit harder. Mostly because they are being interrupted with real work and everything. So at least this week’s post will be about the past three episodes. There is a decent amount to go over, so let’s just jump in.
