Well, after about 2 weeks, I finally finished Midori No Hibi. Actually, I finished 4 episodes today and 2 episodes yesterday. Thats around half of the series since its only a 13 episode anime.
I would say that the plot is not so strong since its only a 13 episode anime, there’s obviously alot of character development thats lacking. The ending’s quite abrupt too. They just meet and confess and they got together. No high impact. Haha. However it does fulfill its entertainment role.
Now that I have finished Midori No Hibi, its the 2nd anime that I actually finished watching, after Love Hina. It is also the shortest series if I’m not wrong. I have completed 11/25 of Tokimeki Memorial Only Love and 123 episodes of Bleach, which is still ongoing.
If anyone has any anime to introduce please do tell me, I guess sometimes travelling is a chore without watching anime already. =)
Also, today I watched 200 pounds beauty.. The story is not strong obviously. Its just a normal story of fat goes slim and losing her identity and regretting. However I just like the comedic part of it. I just like Korean movies. Watched many other Korean movies like My Boyfriend is type B.. And what is the one in which the girl and guy like to lie to each other? Hmm. I forgot the title already. Really enjoyed myself especially it has been a long time since I went out with my girlfriend. =)
Well, been exposed to many different anime recently, of which the one that i’m hooked to and currently watching is Bleach. Episode 121 just came out last thursday. =) 122 is coming up in 3 more days! Haha.
Im also watching Tokimeki Memorial Only Love. Well I guess JH would be rolling his eyes and saying huh. (If not I expect him to mention this when he sees me on MSN.)
I don’t know why I started watching and I don’t know why I’m continuing. It may be because I want to finish what I watched, or maybe its just that I just like to watch this kind of anime also? Its kinda like why I watched Love Hina in the 1st place. (Thanks jh for the Love Hina anime)
However I note that watching too much of this kind of shows (as well as those idol dramas) give people a false sense of reality. In reality do you expect Japanese girls to be so cute and bubbly with energy and have such an attractive persona and aura? Nope. These animes as well as idol dramas may make people feel that why people around them are not like those in animes or idol dramas.
I want to take this chance to make it known that anime is only a cartoon, idol drama is only a drama. They exist to entertain. They do not reflect the reality 100% accurately. Even reality TV may not be accurate. (Ever heard of rigging?) We should take note of that and not expect your dream guy/girl to be the same as that in the anime or idol drama.
My 2 cents worth. So there!
