As the spring 2010 anime season comes to a close, I think that it is prudent that I should give my personal reviews on the various anime shows I followed. In my opinion, I felt that this season was relatively strong, at least in comparison with the winter season. However, I feel that since this is my first real anime post, it would be a good idea to give some background and overview of my reviews for the season.
Throughout the year, there are 4 big anime seasons, in order, winter starting in January, spring starting in April, summer starting in July, and Fall starting in October. Each season has roughly 8-15 new anime shows to fill the slot left by the ones that had single season runs. This means that most anime shows have 13 episodes, but this is not always true. There are long standing anime like Bleach, Naruto, and One Piece that will never be reviewed by me. My goal is to review only the anime that you have never heard of, the ones that appear and disappear in the span of 13-26 weeks.
With that said, I followed a record of 10 different anime shows this season from romance to comedy to action and drama. While not all of them were very good, I will be giving my reviews in a relatively objective manner and if you take my reviews seriously, you should mainly be looking at the content of the anime and not my feelings about it. In order the 10 anime I will be reviewing are:
Ichiban Ushiro no Daimao link to review
Kaicho wa Maid-sama link to review
Angel Beats! link to review
Working!! link to review
Giant Killing link to review
Arakawa under the bridge link to review
K-ON!! link to review
RAINBOW(not reviewed)
(The) Tatami Galaxy link to review
House of Five Leaves link to review
Durarara!! link to review
These are placed in order by the date of their last episode, exluding Kaicho wa Maid-sama which is 26 episodes long so I will be doing a mid-anime review for that one. In addition to reviews, I will also give where to find streaming for each legally, if such a site exists, for many they do.
In addition to these, there were other anime of "note" that you might be interested in that I simply did not watch for some reason or another. These would be, Mayoi Neko Overrun!, Senko no Night Raid, B gata H Kei, and Heroman. I cannot guarantee anything about these four as I did not personally finish watching any of them. At the least they had a somewhat decent first episode. If you haven't already clicked the links, they link to their respective pages at animenewsnetwork.com which is a great source for all things anime. In addition, they have professional pre season reviews, so if you feel my reviews are not good enough, go there. Not to mention there are usually 2 or 3 reviews per anime there, so if you just want more opinions. That should be all I have for this intro, look forward to the first post season review this weekend and more on Hong Kong.
