Hey guys. Sorry for being a little late with everything, I had my hard drive crash on me and lost everything. That said, I'm very behind on the entire season and while I'm trying to catch up as fast as I can, I'm not going to be able to say I'm up to date for another week or so. So my sincerest apologies for being late this season after all the promises, but as it goes... It can't be helped.
I'll still try to get a few posts up all next week to talk about the shows as I catch up to try and make up for it, but please have patience.

TWGOK; Minerva Confirmed
Hey guys just a short update on the series,
Synopsis: The World God Only Knows is a world Keima “The Capturing God” only knows. He is an alliance of hell, that had appeared to him in the form of Elsie. Keima had agreed to a contract, although unwillingly, to capture the Weiss, runaway spirits. To capture these, Keima pushed them out by filling the gap with love and since the hosts lose these memories of him, only Keima “The Capturing God” only knows of such a world.
Five of the seven goddesses were revealed in recent chapters. But in chapter 150 of The World God Only Knows, appears a new goddess. She is unique and maybe the most powerful. She has grown wings and as well as appear separate from the host, as in no mirrors or take over the body appear.

Summer 2011, Episode 1: Pilots
Welcome to GirlySummer. I hope your ready for all the hot new show of the season. I know I've been having fun watching the pilots of EVERY ANIME THIS SUMMER. But since most of you guy don't have the time to do all that stuff, I'll let you know my first impressions of all the stuff I watched. (there are a few I haven't gotten to at this time but I'll update this page when I do get to them)
(You can check out the list of anime as well as brief descriptions and release dates here: http://www.moetron.com/2011/04/17/summer-2011-visual-guide-and-anime-listing/)
Double J:
A short flash anime about girls in a oddball club called the traditional arts club. It's short (as in 5 minutes max) but funny. I'll probally keep watching it since it's quick entertainment similar to Haiyore! Nyaruko-San.
No. 6:
I'm not gonna lie, this anime is a little gay. Well, alot of gay actually. The first episode has the two main male leads lying bed holding hands. This isn't even subtle homo stuff, this is straight yaoi fan service. But because Bones is the studio I'm gonna stick it out a few more episode in hope that this doesn't turn into boku no pico.
Usagi Drop:
This anime right here. This one. You should watch it. It's cute, (the good kind, not the k-on kind) funny and has the most potential to be great out of all the shows I've seen. You can expect a well written drama/comedy/hhhhnnngggg anime with this one. More than likely I'm going to be putting a lot more focus on this anime out of all the animes this season.
Morita-san wa Mukuchi:
The second short 5 minute anime this season. The difference is this one is actually animated and not done in flash (yes I know flash in animation too). Since the episode was short I don't really have a feel for the show yet. For the same reason as Double J I'm going to end up watching it.
Kamisama Dolls:
This anime got my attention. It's one of the few animes this season with any action in it and while it's not as action packed as Sacred Seven, I think it will have a much better story/character devolpment (but not as much a Blood-C). It also has some drama elements to it so there's that. This might be your fix if you like action-y anime that has more than mindless violence.
Yuri Yuri:
Did you watch k-on/lucky star? Then you know what this is about, cute girls doing cute things. Don't expect it to be as good as k-on/lucky star though, it's just one of the many generic moe anime that get shelled out each season. So if your into that its great, but if your not then don't bother.
THE IDOLM@STER:
This is the bettter moe anime this season. The pilot impressed me enough to say I'm probably going to keep watching it to the end. It's got a lot more to work with than the other more generic series this season so it might be worth checking out even if your not into that stuff. plus it has main character that's a male (and not a trap/girly boy)
Blood-C:
This is a Clamp anime, and all the Clamp stereotypes are there (not that it's a bad thing). You got LONG character models with happy go lucky girls and action scenes. This one with more violent action that any other Clamp anime I've seen (the main girl was almost choked to death). I'm going to end up putting a little more focus on this anime as well since I think it will be one the better anime this season.
Mayo Chiki!:
So here's what I think happened for this anime, Some guys who make anime got together and were like "you know whats popular? Traps! Go get me a light novel that has a trap in it and well try to bank on that." So yeah, its a anime with a trap, but that's about all it has going for it. If you like traps you'll like this, otherwise don't bother.
Ro-Kyo-Bu:
The pedo anime of the season. Only this time it tries to lampshade it by making the MC all angsty when his club gets cancelled because the president was a pedo. Yeah that makes everything better. But at least the characters are interesting... I wanted Milky Homes not this...
Ikoku Meiro no Croisée:
Culture shock the anime. Some little Japanese girl ends up in Paris in a metal craft shop, but the owner of the store doesn't know about GLORIOUS NIPPON. It's pretty funny when you assume that the old guy who brought the girl to france is a raging narutard. Other than that is pretty slow, and pretentious.
Baka-Test season 2:
It's Baka to Test to summonbeingu. Again. I like the first season. I'll watch the second. I'm not sure what you want from me.
Sacred Seven:
MICHAEL BAY BOOM! That's pretty much what happened.
Mawaru Penguindrum:
WHAT IS THIS I DON"T EVEN. This anime has it all! Magic Penguins, death, silly hats, incest, drama, action, suspense, comedy. This show might sound like a clusterfuck but it's pretty cool to me. I would put in in the top three pilots this season.
Kami-sama no Memo-chou:
44 minute pilot episode that had some NEET stuff. It has a NEET little gimmick where everyone is a NEET, and the whole thing revolves around a NEET detective and they do NEET detective work to save all the little children. It's pretty NEET.
That's the new season. If somethings not there then expect to show up latter when I watch the pilot. If you want to me to talk about one of the anime more than another then let me know. Next week I'll have a theme song review as well letting you know what anime I dropped for being unbearable.

TWGOK; The End of the Shiori Arc
Keima Katsurugi stars in his own show, whether he wants it or not. Hell went to him in the form of Elsea de lute Irma (Elsie) although 300 years old she acts like a six year old.
 |
| 300 year old demon... BEWARE!!! |
He captures girls with love but wait its better than it sounds. He uses love to get ghosts and goddesses inside the girls and after he gets them to fall in love they forget the whole thing except for goddesses.
There are six Goddesses out of the Jupiter Sisters that have been confirmed.
The Goddess and their respective host serve as foils for each other. Each Goddess has their own power, although not confirmed on what powers they have. Each Goddess grows stronger with love, unlike Weiss who get kicked out of their host because of it, when they get stronger and have more power they grow wings. Which Mars, Tsukiyo, Diana, and Minerva have.
The Goddess and their respective host serve as foils for each other meaning their personalities are totally different. Each Goddess has their own unique power, although not all of them have been confirmed. Each Goddess grows stronger with love (unlike the Weiss…
… who get kicked out of their host because of it) when they get stronger and have more power they grow wings. Which Mars, Tsukiyo and Diana each have.
With the Shiori Arc over, Keima is still not at ease. They have to destroy Vintage as well as find out about it. Kanon is still recovering slowly but surely, while Elsie is taking her place and Haqua taking Elsie’s place. There is also the fact that there is only one goddess left to find.
