End of November Update 12/1/14

Mina-san, konnichiwa ~

Welcome new followers to the Anime Cafe! Though the menu is small right now, I’m slowly adding more all the time.

My Thanksgiving break was quiet. My grandma had recently passed away due to cancer, so things around the house where we usually participate in holidays were dull. Though they say yes, it was clear that nobody was over her passing, and frankly, neither am I. It was a peaceful time of contemplating the good things I still have in my life, and of course, watching anime. How was your fall break?

Here is a followup on the anime I am currently watching:

Sword Art Online II – loving Mother’s Rosario, only like 2 episodes left 😦

Log Horizon 2 – pretty slow so far, but hey, glad to be back in the Elder Tale universe

Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works – just wow, beautiful, much better than original

Trinity Seven – recently picked up, pretty interesting, lots of fan service

In Search of the Lost Future – has so much potential I hope it doesn’t go down the gutter!

selector spread WIXOSS – exciting sequel yet confusing at times

Love, Chunibyo & Other Delusions! – I had extra down-time so I picked this up, so kawaii~

Reading: Sword Art Online Light Novel 01: Aincrad – when I have time, inspiration for writing

Within the next month most of these are gonna end. Are you watching any of these wonderful anime? What do you think – drop a comment below! That’s all on the menu for today. Till next time,

Quick Update 11/16/14

Hi, I hope you have all been doing fine!

Previously, I had taken a short leave from blogging just to clear my head, and because I have been occupied with other annoying/trivial things. One of these issues was that I got my wisdom teeth taken out a couple days ago, so coping with that and making up homework have made my days long and painful…

But do not fear, for I bear good news! I’m pondering the extensive idea of writing a Light Novel, along with my reviews and what not, because I feel there are many fruit-bearing ideas in my mind and I need to get them down, like soon. A project of this magnitude requires a lot of research and dedication, however, so I have been reading Reki Kawahara’s Sword Art Online and reading other blog posts about English Light Novels.

The site also might go under renovation, as I’m not quite I’m serving up the Cafe idea as smoothly as I thought I would. If or when this happens, I’ll post another update. Regardless, I’ve still been catching up on all of the anime listed in my “End of October” post, so check it out if your curious about my browsings or want to know my opinions before my reviews.

Swim season has also started at my school, so it’s going to be a busy winter, but I’ll still do my reviews! This was just an update as to the changes in my blog and daily life.

Until my next post, I hope you all have a fantastic week! It would make me so happy if you liked or followed my material (hello newcomers)! Bye~~

Halloween and End of October Update

Hi and welcome to the cafe! This month was filled with anime for me! To start, I finished watching The Devil is a Part-Timer, Attack on Titan‘s English dub, selector infected WIXOSS, and continued with SAO II, Log Horizon 2, Fs/n UBW, In Search of the Lost Future. I also picked up on Trinity Seven. Wow, for me, that is a lot!

On Halloween, I literally told myself that I was going to stay up all night to marathon a new anime. Did that happen, well, no, but I got pretty damn close LOL! For that grand night, I chose selector infected WIXOSS as my companion, and boy was that kinda creepy. Originally I was gonna watch Tokyo Ghoul because it was so well-received and because duh, it’s Halloween, but I chickened out. What did I think of Wixoss? I’ll do a review here soon on it. I also watched FUNimation’s dub of Attack on Titan. God I freaking love that show! The dub was very similar to that of The Future Diary‘s, in that while the main character(s) could have been better, all of the remaining cast was amazing! I do give them props, though, as they kept that driving intensity/insanity that AoT is famous for.

To top off the night, I heard that I might be going to Naka-kon in the spring, so yeah! It’ll be my first convention and I’m totally stoked! What did you do for Halloween? Anything special? Friends? Anime or gaming? Let me know in the comments below! Fall has arrived in my town, so nice weather has returned. Maybe I’ll spend some time outside, too!

Anyway, I just finished a few of the summer simulcast shows and oh mah gawd, why must they be so short! Aldnoah.Zero threw me for a loop – holy crap Slaine!
