Anime Movie - Legend of the Millennium Dragon (Onigamiden)

subota , 24.05.2014.

Onigamiden is in short a fight for the rights of underprivileged who were a nuisance to the privileged because they decided to fight back for their homes. At first it looked like the Oni were bad guys, scary killers without a reason, but it's amazing how fast things got turned around. I got a feeling that they purposely confused the audience to add that twist of surprise when things turn out differently than expected. The main character was kinda wimpy and out of place, but with amazing sense of justice and need to do the right thing. It even looked like they got the wrong guy, since this hero was pretty untypical. Despite all that Onigamiden was interesting, intense, compassionate anime movie where good beats evil and rights all wrongs. I must also add that I was disappointed with only one thing; the animation was lacking, it was simple and looked more like it was meant for those low level mass production weekend anime for kids. All in all, the justice emphasized story, the atypical hero and really beautiful scenery should be reason enough to give this movie a chance.

Asian Movies - Cyrano Agency (Si-Ra-No:Yeon-Ae-Jo-Jak-Do)

petak , 16.05.2014.

This is a pretty good romantic comedy. It was inspired by Edmond Rostand's classic play «Cyrano de Bergerac». Since it was based on a good classic it was a great success with a total of 2,172,786 tickets sold and was in the first place in box office in Korea for three weeks. The movie also won a Best Screenplay Award at the 31st Blue Dragon Awards. With all that, it's not to be missed.

The cast was well picked and definitely made the movie more interesting. The adaptation of the play as well as making it more up to date and giving it a unique modern perspective had given a great result. Really fun and a good way to relax and enjoy.

The Cyrano Agency consists of four people from a theater troupe and offers an unique cupid service with helping people who can't date to have a love life. With painstakingly elaborate tactics and covert schemes, they guarantee 100% of success in obtaining romance for their clients. The agency's boss and mastermind, Byung-Hoon, dreams that soon he will be able to revive his own theater.

But one day Cyrano Agency meets an unpredictable client Sang-yong. He has a successful career as financial analyst, but he is a failure in dating. He is in love with a lovable woman named Hee-joong and seeks out help from the agency. Ironically this woman is Byeong-hoon's ex-girlfriend.

JGames - Shikkoku no Sharnoth (What a Beautiful Tomorrow) (PC)

petak , 09.05.2014.

It been a long time since I played Japanese visual novel games. I started after a while with Shikkoku no Sharnoth and I must admit that I was blown away by this game. The story was immensely interesting and intense when I round it all up. The art was really nice to look at and even when the same images repeated it wasn't boring at all. The three main characters are all girls in a world still ruled by men. The story is set in London at the beginning of the 20th century even though it wasn't really a typical industrial revolution society, but a much darker version of it especially in the background of it all. Also, there were quite a few mini games all throughout the game which were pretty fun and relatively easy once you figured out how they worked. It's a pretty long-ish game and everything is pretty much detailed, some parts even necessarily so, but in the end there were some unanswered questions too for us who like everything explained. Despite that, it's was the best visual novel game I ever played. I totally recommend it!

Also, there were quite a few mini games all throughout the game which were pretty fun and relatively easy once you figured out how they worked. Check out the rest of the info below (from Wiki ofc).

Shikkoku no Sharnoth is set in 1905 and takes place in London.

It has two modes of gameplay. The first mode, like other visual novels, requires little interaction from the player as much of the player's time is spent reading the text that appears on the game's screen which represents the protagonist's thoughts or the dialogue between the different characters. The second mode occurs twice every chapter. In this mode, the player is presented with an isometric view of the protagonist and her surroundings and is tasked with guiding the protagonist to certain spots in the map while avoiding the monsters in the area in a turn-based system. This secondary gameplay feature is rather unique to Shikkoku no Sharnoth as the player's interaction with a visual novel is usually isolated to the graphics and audio.

The player assumes the role of Mary Clarissa Christie, the protagonist of Shikkoku no Sharnoth. Mary has heterochromia eyes, her right eye is gold while her left eye is blue. She originally had blue eyes but her right eye changed colours one year ago prior to the game's events and she has been seeing strange visions since.

Anime Special! - Zombie Loan

petak , 02.05.2014.

It's been a while since I did an anime special. This time it's about Zombie Loan. It would be a shame if all these cool anime would be forgotten so this is my way of reminding myself and you as well.

So, Zombie Loan. This was a pretty short one-season anime with only 11 episodes + 2 specials. The characters were pretty cool and the animation was nicely done. I have always regretted the fact that it was just way to short. The story was really interesting and innovative. Since then I have watched quite a few anime series, but never came across of anything similar. The thing I remember the most is the humor. All in all it was a well rounded anime with good characters, interesting story and well balanced humor.

Michiru Kita is a special girl who possesses Shinigami Eyes, a power which allows her to see a person's nearness to their destined death by seeing a ring, invisible to normal people, around the person's neck. When a person is marked to die, a gray ring appears, which darkens over time. Once the ring turns completely black, the person dies. Chika Akatsuki and Shito Tachibana, two boys in her class, both have black rings around their necks, but to her surprise, they are not yet dead. It is revealed that after a tragic accident that was supposed to kill them both, the two boys made a deal with a secret loan office called the Zombie-Loan. In return for keeping them alive, the two have to hunt zombies for the loan office. When Michiru gets involved with them, she finds that her life has just become more complicated. After hunting Zombies in an episodic fashion, Chika and Shito defect from Zombie Loan and head to China in an attempt to save Shito's mother from the Xu-Fu. However, the Xu-Fu captures Shito and attempts to use his body as a vessel for Lao Ye, the leader of the Xu-Fu. Lao Ye is eventually defeated and Chika and Shito return to Zombie Loan.
