Plot Summary:

A teenage boy wants to own a restaurant and become a better chef than his father. His father closes down their diner to travel the world to continue his culinary journey so he enrolls his son into his alma mater, Totsuki Culinary Academy, an elite culinary school where only 10% of the students graduate. As soon as the boy gets there, he starts making enemies by declaring that he would be #1 in the school's Elite Ten student council. Will he be #1 or will he be part of the failed 90%?

Review:

Shokugeki is still as good as its 1st season. The animation and storyline is still the same. However, now that the Autumn Festival is over it's time for a new development. A hostile takeover or a civil war of sorts. Erina's father, Azami, has come back to Totsuki, but not as a student or teacher, but as the new director! It's out with the old and in with the new as Azami kicks out Senzaemon and transforms Totsuki into his dream school where only elite food can be achievable by standing on the shoulders of the giants who created it. There is no need to improve or innovate anything as the only recipe one needs to learn is already prepared exactly the way it needs to be. Leave your personalities, desires and creativity at the door, follow everything that Azami and Central tells you, and you will be elite too.

Opinion:

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Azami is a bully! He wasn't born as a Nakiri, but he took it over like he was one. He broke up the Elite Ten and created Central, minus a few Elite Ten members who did not fit his ideals, things will never be the same again. Souma and the Polar Star dormitory crew have to try to figure out how to get Totsuki back to its former glory or get expelled. This becomes a fight for not only their dorm and school lives, but for all of the Totsuki chefs who have been forced to close their clubs and quit their specialties in their chosen culinary skill. Souma better be ready to face Central. At the end of the day, they were once former Elite Ten members anyway. How can they win? Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh, the suspense is killing me!!!!!! (But not by much because I'm reading the ongoing (and further than anime) manga)

Rating:

Shokugeki so far gets a 9 

out of 10. The ratings may go up or down depending on the rest of the episodes

Seven Deadly Sins (Season 1 anime)

Title: Seven Deadly Sins

Date Aired: 2016

Genres: adventure, ecchi, comedy, action

Ongoing/Completed: Completed

Plot Summary: In an era long ago, a war was waged within a nation. Conspiracy is in the air as the kingdom gets divided between the Holy Knights and the Seven Deadly Sins. Which side is good and more importantly, who will win?

Review: Seven Deadly Sins is more than what the title makes it out to be. The characters' profiles are whimsical and refreshing. It's interesting watching how the characters develop as well as how the storyline develops. In the beginning, you're thrust into a dilemma. Who started the war and why? The animation is pleasing, especially when it comes to the action scenes.

The fight scenes draws you into the anime even more. The ecchiness is used more as comic relief than anything that a 13 year old couldn't watch, honestly. Because of that, censorship comes in as comedy. Adventure animes usually start in similar ways, however, the storyline plus characters may make this anime an original in its own way.

Seven Deadly Sins is definitely worth watching.

Opinion: WOW! I had heard of this anime from an old friend when we were talking about Trinity Seven. It took me until my visit to my sister's house for me to watch it. We decided to binge watch anime for my blogs and 7 Deadly was the only one my son wanted to keep watching. I will warn you that I had no way of knowing that there was going to be a whole lot of innuendos, groping, panty snatching, or nudity (barely and briefly).

This anime is funny and keeps you begging for the next episodes.

Rating: I give 7DS 9 breast squeezes over 10.

Trinity Seven (Anime)

Title: Trinity Seven Anime

I don't own this pic, but it's soooo cool!

Date Aired: October 2014
 
Genre(s): Comedy, harem, magic, fantasy, ecchi, romance, school, shounen, supernatural, biblical, action

Completed or Ongoing: Completed

Plot Summary: A young boy ends up surviving the end of the world to awaken to another world. In it he ends up meeting 7 powerful witches (all females, of course). When enrolls into their school, various events occur in which he fights to prevent the destruction of this world.

Review: The characters personalities and relationships meld very well together. For a harem, it is important that each character to have a strong relationship with the MC (main character) and each other. A little rivalry isn't bad either, but a complete dislike for all harem members is a turn off. The illustration is what attracted me to this anime in the first place (sorry, but I know my biases) The animation had clean lines, nice colors and breasts... Leading on to the smut. Very ecchi. Romance has to be there and the relationships the MC had with the eight (hint hint) was again, strong. The storyline is beautiful and can get confusing, but if you were following along you would be asking yourself "where's season 2?" There are plenty of mangas that have magical harems that save the world, so this storyline isn't 100% original. For example, Shinmai Maou no Testament, Seiken Tsukaino World Break, Saijaku Muhai no Bahamut, and Masou Gakuen HxH (check out the blog for HxH) to name a few. It doesn't mean that it doesn't bring a certain freshness o the genre. With all the ecchi, harem, and romance the question got to be what is censorship like? Well, it is censored. I'm sure there is an uncensored version, but I haven't seen it. The funny thing is that Trinity Seven is censored to make you think that it's not censored. When the clothes rip, they are either ripped strategically or something conveniently covers them. This anime is worth watching. If you decide to binge watch this anime, it would be time well spent. 

Opinion: OMG, this anime is sexy and smutty and just the way I like it. if it wasn't for the censorship it would be at 100, but it is not and I don't care. The storyline more than makes up for it. The powers each character possesses depends on what sin they stood for. Yes! This anime is slightly biblical in that it references the 7 deadly sins: lust, greed, envy, pride, sloth, wrath, and gluttony. Each of them are experts in their respective sin and has to portray the opposite of their sin, so lust is "virginal". This is one manga you would hate to miss.

Rating: I give this anime 9 ripped panties out of 10. Just because of those censors. Damn you censors!

As always, I do not own this image!

NeW tErMiNoLoGy AlErT!!!!!

Biblical: Any Christian/Catholic-based or bible-based animanga. Heavy on the Jesus, God, crosses, bibles, and biblical stories, characters, plots, etc. Seikon no Qwaser was a choice between biblical or breastmilk...guess who won?

100% Perfect Girl (Manhwa)

Title: 100% Perfect Girl

Author: Wan

Genre(s): Action, manhwa, mature, psychological, romance, shoujo

Completed or Ongoing: Completed

Plot Summary: This story focuses on the romance of a young couple. They go through a lot of shit because, you know, he's king of an European country. She's just a "plain" Korean girl with nothing but her ambition to be an artist. 

Review: This manhwa may make you cry. If you have seen Kdoramas (see Terminology), then you know how they storyline can be. This manhwa might not be for everyone. While it does say mature, it isn't exactly that bad. It could be because we are exposed to this stuff heavily in the American culture. So much so that I and maybe others, may be desensitized to the whole thing. Sex is implied in the art. Rape is more descriptive, but I would still say that there is worse in smut.

The story is frustrating. I have said it many times and I'll say it again; I will not give spoilers. But.... DAMN!!!

Opinion: The MC female is by any means "plain". What,?!The start of 100% is kinda slow, but picks up. There are fillers in weird places. I'll say that this manhwa made me cry at least twice. It got me angry, mad, sad, and frustrated all "at the same damn time"! (sorry Bad Girls Club reference) Truthfully, around chapter 55, I was hanging around for the sex scene, I wanted to see how the artist would bring it to life. I was disappointed. 

I hate virgin romance novels/mangas/animes/manhwas. FUCK!!!! I have nothing on this kind of romance. I just feel that ALL humans should be aware and comfortable with their body and sex. Virgins and the stereotypes of virgins play on the belief that if you're sexual you're dirty, but only if you're a female. I'll save that rant for another day. If sex was what you were looking for, it's not here. If it's romance, you might be in the right place. Depending on whether or not you want to take that emotional roller coaster ride.


Rating: The illustrations wasn't too bad. The storyline pissed me off, The characters' develop into completely different people in the end. I think it's original, but then again, I haven't read as many manhwas as I've read mangas. In mangas, I wouldn't say that they go this far, again, I could be wrong. The fact that the genre was psychological could also explain why it's so deep.

It censors like no tomorrow. It implies a lot. The romance is decent, the mature level was a bit weak. I'm surprised that I actually continued to read it. I thought about quitting a few times, but the lack of sex scenes kept me going until I realized that it was way, and I mean WAY too close to the end to drop it now. I think that may have been the point. If so, kudos to you Wan. Kudos to you.

I give "100% Perfect Girl", a 5 out of 10. Uhhhh, I can't even think of a rating image to give this. 

Read if you want, but if you don't like it, you had been warned

NeW tErMiNoLoGy AlErT!!!

Mature: Supposed to be for people over the age of 17. Usually up my alley depending on the storyline and art.


Oh, did I mention that I'm big on animanga art? Unfortunately, I judge a lot of animanga by it's art. It's not a good thing to do and I acknowledge my bias...

Shokugeki no Soma (Anime and Manga)

Title: Shokugeki no Soma (Anime and Manga)

Author: Tsukudo Yuuto and Saeki Shun

Genre: Comedy, Drama, Ecchi, Romance, School Life, Shounen

Ongoing or Completed: Both are ongoing. The anime is on season 2. The manga is on chapter 176

Plot Summary: A young boy is thrown into a tough culinary school where he battles against other students in an "Iron Chef" like match called Shokugeki.

Review: The anime is well drawn. I must warn you that it's very ecchi. On all angles of the gendersphere. This anime takes food/ingredient descriptions to a whole new level. It is also very censored. 

This doesn't take away from the ecchiness known by most animes. Of course, there are uncensored ecchi, but that's not the focus for this animanga (sry, I got lazy). If you like cooking shows or anything similar, you shouldn't be disappointed.

Opinion: This is one of my favorite animangas. I don't watch it for the ecchi, although the fact that it was ecchi was what led me to this manga and consequently it's anime. Like all (from the ones I've read) manga remakes, the anime misses and remakes a few of the scenes. Not that it was a bad thing. Like I said I like Shokugeki, they've made me a fan. 

Oh, and the anime stretches the scenes to be longer than they should be. For example, it's season 2 and we're still trying to figure out who won the big tournament. I will not give spoilers, but I do recommend this anime and it's manga. I prefer to read mangas first. Depending on the storyline, though.

Rating: The characters' profiles, developments and illustrations are good. I like the storyline because it's not overly complicated and it caught me hook, line and sinker in both forms. Shokugeki, I wouldn't think, has originality since I imagine a lot of cooking animangas run along similar tales. 

If I were to compare the level of ecchi to spicy food, I'd say it was fairly mild. Yes, they have foodgasms in the nude, (spontaneous stripping is what I'll call it) but it's censored. However, like I said, it isn't a deal breaker. Ecchi is there, strongly at that, but I've seen worse IMHO.

Out of 10 jiggly titties, (because that's ecchi), I give Shokugeki no Soma, the anime, an 8 out of 10. I give the manga a 9 out of 10.

NeW tErMiNoLoGy AlErT!!!:

Shounen: The gender counterpart of shoujo. Instead of romance, it focuses more on fighting and violence.
