The Knight In The Area

Synopsis: Suguru Aizawa, a football prodigy, got into a vehicular accident with his little brother, Kakeru, the protagonist of the story. Being brain dead, the family decided to transfer his heart to the injured brother and brought him a new life in the field of football.

I must admit, this anime caught my attention as it is being a sports anime and the main protagonist's brother being dead but the story is becoming to be dragging as it goes along since they kept on extending the scenes that can be finished in one episode. I know it's a formula in a TV show to keep it going but the style they are going with is senseless. Artwork is mediocre and the only thing that kept me going was how will it turn out with Aizawa's progressing skills.

Annoying?! : Kakeru's heart is always pounding and looking like getting possessed at a crucial moment

Kuroko's Basketball


Synopsis: A high school student, who was the 6th man of a powerhouse basketball team during their middle school called "Generation of Miracles" joined a basketball team, who was just founded a year before the current story line.

I'm an avid fan of basketball and this anime surely caught my attention. The main protagonist, Tetsuya Kuroko, is a point guard, with crazy passing skills. If you're into real life basket ball, this is somewhat not for you since the characters here are making fancy moves. (Spoiler: Who the hell shoots from a center line or even after inbounding from the opponent's court?!)

Anime theme: you can't win alone.
Proposed episodes: 25 (13 eps released as of this writing)

To Start Off

I am starting this blog because of my love with anime. I am already in my late 20's (almost turning 30 in a few months time) but my love with anime never fades. Most of what will be posted here is my recommended anime, a few slice of my own life and such. Hopefully, you will find my blog entries interesting as I am willing to update this from time to time. I also appreciate feedback, regardless if it's positive or negative, to improve my site. Lastly, forgive me for my english as this is not my primary language. Thank you and enjoy!
