Weekly Digest – 12/07/08 – Harem Anime

God… I hope this doesn’t happen…

I don’t think I’ll ever get used to the feeling of a harem Anime. Some people actually like this – my guess is that they like it when all the girls wants to be banged by one guy. Well, for me, I hate it. I hated it since the beginning I saw Shuffle! It was one of those few, harmless Anime I thought was awesome. Initially, I was cheering on for Nerine to be with Rin, but after I saw the crazy Kaede, I REALLY thought Kaede should be with Rin. In the end, what did it give us? Neither of the two or anyone we probably thought was important. It surprised me to no bounds. The ending was nice, but to me it was something unsettled. They kept on giving ideas where the other girls had chances to be with Rin. Regardless, after I saw Shuffle! my harem-loving days were starting to decline. And you know when that harem-loving feeling died out? School Days. Yes, School Days. That was the bloodiest (literally) ending I’ve ever seen which made me think “No more. Just one for one and not two for one.” I’m not saying that I don’t watch harem-typed Anime – far too it. I’m just saying my feelings plummeted to a level of depression. But then I noticed that I there’s only one type of harem that I really like: When the main character shows oblivious signs of affection toward one character while other girls are trying to get at him, such as Tokimeko Memorial.

Manga

Rosario+Vampire II
I think a reason for me on not watching Rosario Vampire is just that it has too many hot girls who I like. Maybe another reason is that I’m too lazy to actually download an Anime that might just have a totally different storyline compared to the Manga. Regardless, I feel more comfortable reading this Manga. It’s totally oblivious that Tsukune won’t like anyone else besides Moka. Though, I really don’t like the fact that if Tsukune stays with Moka (if you get what I mean), that would mean that the other girls who likes/loves him will be turned down. Polygamy is what I would always repeat in my head whenever things like this happen. I guess my sense of justice is more of a sense of equality and happiness for others; I’m not exactly sure. Mizore is probably the only other character I’d consider as good as Moka. Kurumu is just too… I can’t describe it. I just don’t like her as much as the others (including the lolis) :[

Yoo Ah Dok-Jon — Chapter 15
I’m sure lots of random people would go and read this and say “This book is RACIST!” Well, I agree but it’s one of those types of things where I’m looking more at the romance than the race issue. What romance? With Eli and Sang-Ah. They’re a nice, cute couple and I’d pick them instead of Sang-Ah and Yoo Cho-Hee (The near-sighted one that looks like a Dokebi). It’s just strange to me for the author to make a plot that’s about getting more girls to like you… THEN only keeping one of them. But I’m OK with this. This Manga isn’t showing any character (in my opinion) that would act all deredere to Sang-Ah. Because of that I don’t feel that if Sang-Ah went with Eli the other girls will be sad. Funny though, Sang-Ah just keeps on getting weirder and weirder candidates. That yandere girl is hot but because she’s a yandere, she creeps me out. Yea, yandere isn’t really my thing.

Anime

Akane-iro ni Somaru Saka — Episode 09
Yuuhi likes Junichi but who knows who he really likes? I have the idea that he likes Minato, but that I can’t be so sure about. It’s very likely, but what if he doesn’t? Minato seems like the innocent Kaede of Shuffle! in my opinion. This episode really, really saddened me near the end because it showed that Minato felt jealousy (or sad) because she wasn’t the one who baked Junichi a cake. We have 3 episodes to go and I’m getting a bit anxious to find out who Junichi will really choose. As I said in previous digests, I would REALLY hate for Junichi to random confess to a girl who barely was noticed in this show. But I guess that depends on the person as well. One person can view a character I consider more of a “main” character. I have no qualms with that. But seriously, I just am getting a really sad/bad feeling about how this will end. I really don’t want Minato to not be sisterly and turn into a yandere bi-atch like Kaede. That would be the worse possible scenario.

That’s pretty much all the harem-related Anime/Manga I saw/read that I liked :P
