We have been watch several kinds of anime movie, even the best movie that ever aired in theater like Ghost in the Shell, Summer Wars, The Girl Who Leap Through Time, so on and so forth. Yet all of them are beaten by the epic of Evangelion 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance. It was a promising movie but it was result into beyond of expectation, as if nearly into a perfection.

Following the Rebuild Evangelion 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone, Evangelion 2.0 stand out from the past movie. Mostly it follows the story in the NGE series but taken lots of scene and addition that never had seen, additionally some scenario had change also. This movie was planned so well that result into beyond expectations. Nothing wrong in here, no spots, it was so amazing. I could tell that the story has new elements that you would not seen before in the series.

Handled by Anno Hideaki, Takeshi Honda, Atsushi Nishikiori, Sachiko Okumura and Kumiko Terada. This movie taken good and flawless, resulting into fine and great movie. With staff this great it was inevitable that the visuals in Evangelion 2.0 would be nothing less than breathtaking. Bold, clean, dazzling, dynamic and filled with movement and fluidity, the animation is, without a doubt, some of the best I’ve ever seen in an anime.

The movie have a lots of eye-popping and jaw dropping, from the beginning until the end. The was soundtrack was superb, it was place perfectly in every scene, especially in 2 scenes. I really those two dramatic scene with jolly soundtrack, it really saw how dramatic the scene is. I do not want to miss every scene as if I don’t want to move in my chair until the end, my mouth was drop and I also at my edge of my seat. Quite exaggerating but it is true, as if you awaiting for the coming epic scene.

Evangelion fan had a big expectation on this movie, yet it turn beyond, making this a true epic that can best of the best anime movie that ever seen. You can expect that you find me watching the NGE series again, or collecting some fan arts and mangas. Because of this movie, I became one of their fan again.

Preview:

According to ZOH, TV5 Animega will temporarily signing off-air starting May 31,2010 to give way more new shows on Tv5. Unfortunately TV5 haven’t announce yet when will Animega return. This week TV5 change their schedule again for their last week:

Final week schedule of TV5 Animega:

06:00pm to 07:00pm – Casshern Sins marathon
07:00pm to 07:30pm – D.Gray-man

As of today, many TV5 Animega fans are now complaining, making some speculation and suggestions. Some says that TV5 must not remove Animega, some says that they should move Animega to 5:30 PM up to 6:30 PM time slot. While some said that TV5 Animega is facing their near to death since It will gonna replace Koreanovela.

In my opinion. TV5 should not remove Animega since at the start of their new mangement (2008). One of their primary weapon is Animega. It is not just an ordinary Anime block, but what is unique was TV5 Animega was place on the Primetime slot. Battling with 24 Oras,  TV Patrol World and evening drama shows. And not only they are on Primetime slot, they also shows the most requested and the newest anime show. That’s why Pinoy Otaku’s awarded TV5 as the Newest Anime Terrestrial Channel on the Philippines.

The school day is near, so that I could feel what student feel if they goes home without any expectations on the TV, it will gonna be dull (even if I’m working now). It is not sure if anime in the Philippines is really going to die in the television since at the start of the Korenovela era, anime in the Philippine channels is slowly losing their face.

Well lets all hope that Anime will not be dead on the Filipino Channel.

Yet still TV5 haven’t spoke about this major change about the schedule. The Philippine Anime Community waked up and awaits their reply. This may be temporary but haven’t sure about this.

We may know that TV5 Animega became popular in the past years since it started. From Shakugan No Shana to Code Geass, Suzumiya Haruhi No Yuutsu to Lucky Star, from Toradora to Clannad. There became the newest Anime Terrestrial Channel on the Philippines and became the favorite Anime Channel Locally base on the Local Anime Viewers. They became solid to theur viewers.

Let see later how TV5 mange this things now.

Update:

From Kevin-kun: “Napanood ko ang CM ng Casshern Sins, every Monday to Thursday @ 6:30 PM. So meaning 5:30 na ang start ng Animega if I’m not mistaken.”

If my speculations are correct, casshern would start at 6:30 PM, which means 7:00 PM – D-Grayman, 6:00 PM – Clannad and 5:30 PM – Yatterman. Epic fail for the newspaper column. Well I guess not since it was move into an earlier time.

Teatime’s new eroge title “Mousousei Kasou Jinkaku Shougai” includes hand tracking technology to allow players to virtually cop a feel or strip a girl of her clothing. Gameplay videos can be scrutinised below.

The game utilises a standard web camera to track hand movements and allow a certain very specific variety of interaction with the characters in-game. It is due for release at the end of May.

Other such games are already including similar technology, allowing characters to recognize the human anatomy presented to them and even interfacing with special peripherals – Japan’s adult games market, long a joke technologically, may finally be picking up steam.

All that is required now is an uproar by disgusted feminists and an ensuing media circus – sales are sure to skyrocket as a result, guaranteeing a new generation of even more perverted titles.

All I can say that even though the world is evolving, I didn’t expect the eroge industries would also follow. This is great, no wonder someone make this into a reality. This time look more interesting than the past eroge games. Making it connected to the reality.

The episode begins when Otanashi wake up in an another world which is similar to an ordinary world. The first person he find there was Yuri who was recruiting him to be her ally and joins her team to defeat Angel. He seems to hesitates for a moment, wondering why Yuri is using a sniper and aiming Angel. Yuri explains everything to him about his and their existence on this world, yet he is doubtful about her. Otanashi tried to fix up their problem as she go to the school yard where Angel stands. When suddenly he was stabbed by her.

Otanashi wake up in the school clinic, found himself naked. He tried to remember what happened last night where Angel stabbed her, finding out that it was real by seeing the stains of his blood on his shirt. He became confuse on what happened to him and what’s going on to this world. Suddenly he remembers Yuri, she’s the only one who can answers him. Abruptly someone Noda appear and slash him 100 times with his scythe as a payment for declining the offer of Yuri. He lay on his bloodbath but in a minute, he came alive.

Again he begins to doubt Yuri, maybe she can’t help her. He begins to search for an adult. First he headed to the principal office, but when he touch the door knob, a big hammer suddenly appeared coming to his side making him flying to the windows. He regain he conscious, and find out that Yuri and the other students are now on the meeting, changing their club name (everyday). Soon he joined to their conversation and talk to Yuri, asking what he wanted to know. Yuri again explained everything to him, their existence here and why they want to defeat and erase Angel to this world.

Idling at the school rooftop, Otanashi see his surroundings. the existence of the other people. Yuri go with him and answers his query. Slowly, he tried now to understand the world he moving with Yuri, yet he still not joining to their club.

Yuri gave him a pistol as his weapon. She brief the club about their new mission that she called Operation: Tornado. The target place was the Academy Main Dining Hall and the mission is to get a food stub from the students which Otanashi reacts that was cheating.

Otanashi was assigned alone at the Second Contact Bridge, wondering how will their mission go on. Unknowingly the club has a famous band in the school and make a concert inside the Main Dining Hall. Soon Angel appears in front of Otanashi. He hesitates for a moment, wondering if he could fired a gun on a beautiful and delicate girl. Hesitation flow over his mind and shoots her. Angel’s tummy begin to bleed out, she continues to walk to him even she’s bleeding. Once again, angel use her weapon and begin attack him. He run according to what Yuri had said to him.

Soon he was helped by Noda and the others to stop her.Taking there time while Yuri manage their mission inside the Main Dining Hall. The concert continue and Yuri begin to move, commanding her members inside the Dining Hall to change the fan direction so that the food stub from the students would fly outside while there are busy. Otanashi finally find how the mission flow well. The concert is just a show.

Morning at the Main Ding Hall. The club takes their meal using the food stub they eared. Otanashi realized how Yuri manage and lead the club. Soon he accepts her to join in and he know that Yuri would do something great soon.

Not bad after all, the animation was nice. Sometime I may notice that the character design was flat. I could tell Yuri acts like Haruhi, but not much. And for Angel, she is pretty good. Quite but deadly girl LOL. The concert was so cool, now I can’t wait to play Band Master Online. Another LOL.

The introduction of the story was good, even they didn’t show much and the background. Well it was their first episode, not bad at all. Looking forward at future episodes.

So yeah its kinda late to post this but I think no one cares right~? To start off things…

With the Winter Season Ending(it would be great if winter would come here),

Shin Koihime†Musou ~Otome Tairan~

http://www.mmv.co.jp/special/shinkoihime/
Studio: Dogakobo (11 Eyes, Myself;Yourself, Saikano)
Genre: Comedy, Ecchi

Synopsis:
The third season of Koihime Musou.

Thoughts:

P.G. : Watching this, since I’m after the series from season 1.

Magnum: Pass.

First half of the episode shows the flashback of what happened during season 1 and 2 (they did not include season 3), on how did they fight Sousou. It may be a waste of time to do that, but the staff may have something about this. Nothing to be spectacular about the flashback, showing only what happened.
The second half of the episode goes back to the original story. Introducing the new female character, Bachou Moki. She comes after Sousou to kill him and take revenge of his brother’s death. Unknowingly her brother with his gang assaulted and attempted to rape Kyocho that was close to life of Sousou. Rage and anger put sousou to become evil and kill her brother.
As she raid Sousou’s school, she encounters every students there. She would never stop fighting them until Sousou appear and fight her. Soujin Shikou, tried to stop her to make a commotion over to their school, yet she quickly break away from Soujin line of defense. She ran to the school hallway until she find the audio room, challenging Sousou. Unknowingly Sousou was not on the school that time, he was on the pier with his buudy. Soujin followed her to the rooftop and fight her. She measures Bachou’s fight ability and find out that she was quick and strong. Soon Kyocho suddenly appeared and stop Bachou attack. Bachou bad mouthing Sousou again making Kyocho angry to her, she fight her showing her power. Kyocho is too powerful the Bachou which is lose. Even she is lose, she is still determined to fight. She almost fall to the school building when Kyocho saves her.
Bachou ran away defeated, and came back empty-handed. She lied down to the ground, wet on the rain until Gentoku came and saves her.

Nothing to be striking about the 1st episode, perhaps it was a decent episode. It was better than season 3. I hope that they would make it better at the coming episodes.
