After a long hiatus, anime

So thanks to one of my big brothers I got back into watching anime again, and I thought I'd start recording the anime I'm watching here - maybe with some (very very) brief reviews - or at least how I felt about them. We'll see how long I can keep it up.

Hopefully this blog will be a 'reservoir' for what are my favourites and what changes over the next few months and years. 
I'm also reading lots of manga, as so many anime finish without the big finale, or completing the story. Also anime because of their medium often remove story lines, especially the longer ones, e.g. Skip Beat!, so reading the manga often fills in gaps and builds on loved character profiles.

So Easter just finished and I was back at work today, but I did spend a lot of time watching anime over the weekend - both starting some series and finishing others.

Easter anime

Terror in Resonance (aka Zankyou no Terror)

"That smile was like the sun on a hot summer day... with eyes like ice."

I really loved this anime. It could have gone so horribly wrong, but didn't. The animation was great, characters had real depth and the soundtrack was awesome. Themes of light and darkness, fire and ice, run through the entire series, and the terror the 'terrorists' inflicted upon the world is reflected in smaller but no less terrifying ways in the world around them.
And even if I saw it coming, I still cried.

She and Her Cat - Everything Flows 

(aka Kanojo to Kanojo no Neko - Everything Flows)

A short 4 part anime with amazing depth and narrated by the neko. Heart warming and real.
