Anohana (The Flower We Saw That Day)

Characters: (Starting from left to right) Yadomi Jinta (Jintan), Anjo Naruko (Anaru), Meiko Honma (Menma) the girl in the middle. Hisakawa Tetsudo (Poppo) the man at the back, Tsurumi Chiriko (Tsuruko), Matsuyuki Atsumu (Yukiatsu)

When they were still kids, Menma and the others play together at the forest and built their first base there. They named their group 'The Peace Busters". Until one day, when they are having a talk, Anaru asked Jintan if he liked Menma. Jintan said "who would like that ugly girl?" but Menma only smiled at him. He blushed and to hide his embarassment, he rushed off to the woods. Menma ran after him and a tragic accident happened. She slipped and fell into the river. Menma died. After that, they all grew farther away from each other because of the accident. Years later, Menma showed herself as a ghost to Jintan. She said that he must grant her wish to go to heaven. After that, he tried to gather all the members of "The Peace Busters" again to try and figure out what is Menma's wish. They all tried to guess what is that wish. They are all having quarrels about Menma's ghost being true or not. But when they saw her handwriting on the diary telling that they all should stop quarreling, they all believed it. It seems that Menma's wish was also the wish of Jintan's mother, to make Jintan cry because she believed that he does not cry because he's trying not to cry for her mother's sake being at the hospital with a disease. Well, I could say that this is the most touching anime that I have watched. You will see all the hidden feelings of the characters about their friends. It will also tackle about how being friends are. If you like an anime that would make you cry, well, this is it! I definitely recommend it. 

Attack on Titan (Shingeki no Kyojin)

It is one of the most anticipated animes of 2013. Perhaps the most successful one. To be having more than hundreds of thousands of viewers of the first episode on the first day of release on just a single website. I wonder how many it could be if it is only exclusive to one site only? Maybe millions huh. Well I am also one of those who watched it at the first day of release. And I could say that it was worth waiting for. With the great plot and animation, people from around the world would be watching this with no fail. Eren Jaeger (the main character), discovered that he has the ability to transform into a titan (Huge human-like monster) and was considered to be the secret weapon of the human race and he seem to remember that in the past, his father injected him with something. He didn't know what it was or what it does but, it does not seem to have any effect until he became a titan. The secret to how he transformed into a titan lies beneath their old house which was destroyed by the titans. so, they conducted a special mission to retrieve the documents there. Because of him being able to transform, he is highly doubted by the people to be one of the enemies. As the story goes, he tries to gain the people's trust by helping them defeat their enemies. He also trains himself in order to fully control his newfound power. Well, this anime is one of my favorite animes of all time. Be sure to try watching it and before you know it, you're already anticipating this anime. Thanks.

Elfen Lied (Short Review)

This is my first time making a review for an anime. Please let me know if you have suggestions to make this better or if I have some problems concerning the making of this review. Thank you.

Elfen Lied

One of the few animes that almost made me cry (Well, in fact my eyes were teary when I finished it)
The story starts in a research facility with a masked girl (or something like a mask) with pink hair goes on a rampage and kills all people that she encountered and escaped from there. Then a boy found her on the beach naked and decided to bring her home treat her wounds. And then the research facility sent some people to take her down. As the story goes on and more things happen, the boy later realizes that the girl he took care of was the girl who took his parents' life. The story ends with a tragic ending (the girl sacrificed herself for the sake of the boy).  This is one hell of an anime. (I recommend it to those who love to watch tragedy and love story at the same time).
At first, I thought that this anime will only consist of blood and more blood. But as you go through the whole story, you
can find the meaning behind it. It has a very wide range of  genres put into it starting from Harem, Love story to Tragedy. (although you can't feel the Harem thing happening because of the intense scenes.) As you go on through the story, you'll feel like being sucked into its' greatness.  This is one great anime that you should never miss.
