Impressions:

This show is very boring. Things get dragged on too long and the storyline is just plain dull. The quality has been degraded slightly as well. It would be good if something interesting happened soon, such as a kidnapping. However, as this series is meant to be about a boy and his new younger sister, I doubt anything too serious will happen. The manga’s meant to be better and funnier, but I simply cannot bring myself to read it. I just like Anime better than manga. (But in the case of Higurashi no Naku Koro ni where the last two arcs will not be animated, that’s different).

It’s all pretty interesting, except that this type of anime where not much happens except developing relationships usually does not capture my interest in it. This is what happened with Binbou Shimai Monogatari too. However, that does not mean I will stop blogging it. The series is quite enjoyable and it’s still in its early stages. If I had read the manga… Anyway, I felt that the first episode’s animation was better, but this episode’s events are certainly more interesting. With the foundations in place, I’m hoping the storyline will become more interesting and complex (I feel kinda inferior to those who’ve read the manga…)

�?�ょ�?�ッ�?� Sister

Release: 07/2006
Episodes: 24
Genre: Love-Romance
OP: “Doki! Doki! My Sister Soul” by Harenchi Punch
ED: “Neko-nyan Dance” by Harenchi Punch

Impressions:

Chokotto Sister turned out to be better than I thought. The reason it’s taken me this long to right about it is because I never felt like watching it, until recently, when I finally decided to give it a shot. The show is extremely cheerful until Haruma’s flashback of his mother’s miscarriage, which was SO sad! I wonder what happened to his parents… The style of the character designs aren’t too much to my liking, but this particular style is perfect for a young girl like Choco, although the large eyes and roundish face make Haruma look much younger than he is. Nevertheless, I enjoyed the episode, even though I usually don’t like shows where not much happens. (Oh sorry, I’ve made a big mistake. I forgot about Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu, which had episodes where practically nothing happened, yet the series ended up being one of my all-time favourites.) The OP and ED are both pretty good, and the OP seems really familiar, though I can’t determine where I’ve heard something similar before. The cat dance animation for the OP was weird. Cute, but weird…
