I am Zero!

~Spoilers!~

Now who thought Lelouch died in the first series? Guess what? WRONG! He's back in Code Geass R2!

A year after the Black Rebellion, Lelouch Lamperouge is a normal high school student attending Ashford Academy. He ditches school one day with his brother Rolo to go gamble rather than take his remedial gym class.

Upon playing a game of chess, he gets involved with an attack launched by the Black Knights. Lelouch is separated from his little brother and while searching from him, he comes across a woman with green hair, better known as C.C (or C2 in English dub). With a kiss, Lelouch's true memories return and he remembers his true identity as the former prince of the Brittanian empire and the leader of the Black Knights, Zero.

With his memories revived, he sets to make the world a better place, avenge the death of his mother, and find the whereabouts of his sister, Nunnally. With new challenges as the rivalry of former friend, Suzaku Kururugi and the origins of his fake brother, Rolo, it looks like Lelouch has a long way to go before his goals are accomplished.

This sequel is just as great as the original. With characters, old and new, epic fight scenes, tragedies, and huge plot twists, this anime just can't be beat. It's always kept me on my toes all the way to the very end.

Y'know what? I'm bored

Ugh I hate our stupid internet. I've been neglecting watching anime for the longest time cause Netflix doesn't work temporarily. Well I did see another anime but I haven't seen enough of it to do a review and I'm distracted with other stuff to catch up online. Homestuck is too addicting now so that's easily distracting me as well.

So y'know what? I'm doing sequel series to animes. Just for the heck of it and just in case no one has heard of them. So here is Clannad After Story.

So Clannad was my first post EVER in this blog so if you haven't seen it, see it now. Otherwise ~SPOILERS~

After Tomoya's confession to Nagisa, the two begin to date and build their relationship to stronger levels over time. As they finish school, they help friends and acquaintances go through their hardships as well as their own. However, with their love, Tomoya and Nagisa work together to be with one another and eventually start a family, even as fate has other plans in store for these two lovers.

Now what if this Illusionary World that we've seen? Why does the girl and her robot friend matter at all to anything? Why are they there?

Well these questions I can't answer now but will have to be figured on your own.

I've never seen an anime that has made me cry more than this series. A mixture of comedy, tragedy, and beauty combined to make a perfect sequel to a great anime series.

Blast of Wind

So school's going a little crazy due to finals coming up and my body decided to become sick now. So I'm stuck at home watching anime all day. This one seemed interesting so I added it to Netflix and began to watch it.

"Eyes as clear as the azure sky. That is the symbol of one called 'Contractor'. One who has been entrusted with the entire world's atmosphere by the Spirit King of the Wind, the Stigma of the Wind."

This anime, Kaze no Stigma, follows the black sheep of the Kannagi family, Kazuma.

Kazuma Kannagi was born to a family that possesses the power of fire magic. However, he was never able to control this magic. When he was beaten by his distant relative, Ayano Kannagi, for the sacred sword of his family that represents the family's heir, Enraiha, he was banished from the Kannagi household and left Japan.

Four years later, twenty-two year old Kazuma returns, changing his last name to Yagami and a powerful master of wind magic. He's also become a Contractor which gives him great power and allows him to heal any wounds he has, turning his amber eyes to azure. He reunites with his family under bad circumstances.

Upon his return, members of the Kannagi family are being mysteriously murdered by Wind Magic, leading the first suspicion straight to Kazuma Yagami. Now Kazuma has to work to find the real culprit and clear his name by following a series of adventures with Ayano.

This is a really cool anime I chose to add. Lots of action and bittersweet story line that keeps me hooked.
