I know I've already complained, but I can't stop, I love to complain, it's one of my favorite hobby, so, this corner feels empty at this time of the year. Well, next week I'll have new stuff, but until then, please bear with it.
Oh, and I'm kinda a bit disappointed by Kalafina's new album, but I guess I'll vent my frustration on a dedicated post. I've never reviewed an album before, guess it's the perfect occasion.
Anyway, beware of spoilers!

Kuuki's crazy anime watchlist corner desuu~ #14
Before I leave you with my usual anime report, December will come with a full album of Tiger&Bunny character songs (Oh god how much I want one for Agnès you have no idea) and second, and totally unrelated, a new Kalafina album is released in a few days. I can't wait. I love Kalafina.

Kuuki's crazy anime watchlist corner desuu~ #8
Usually I'd find something clever to introduce my bi-weekly recap post but you know what? I have no idea today so guess I'll just leave you with a spoiler warning, as usual.

Kuuki's crazy anime watchlist corner desuuu~ #6
Courageously facing heat and battling against my fate of a construction worker/mechanic/cook/couch potatoe, I bring yet another recap of what happened this week!
As usual, spoilers for Usagi Drop, No.6, Dantalian no Shoka, Utapri and Idolm@ster. And Kami no Memochou, which section contains potential spoilers for next episode. Yeah. I'm awesome like that.

Kuuki's crazy anime watchlist corner desuuu~ #4
Despite mourning for the lack of Mawaru Penguindrum this week, thus creating a really hard to bear lack of material for my brain to go crazy over, obviously not helped by the lack of Shonen Jump (I hope Amano will still be high by next week) I have to say that these were quite the interesting few days, anime wise at least.
(Also, can I take a moment to say that, really, the internet is amazing, I'm starting to remember the various hollidays of everywhere in the world, it's kinda nice, it's like I'm celebrating something everyday ^^)
And since I realized I probably should put a spoiler warning here you go, possible spoilers for Usagi Drop, No.6, Idolmaster and Utapri should be normally free of them (since nothing much happens anyway ^^), Dantalian no Shoka, KamiMemo and most of all Tiger&Bunny.

Kuuki's crazy anime watchlist corner desuuu~ #2
Man, already the second edition, and goddamn long on top of that. Forgive me?
- Usagi Drop : TOMOE! The mother is Tomoe! Same voice, same look, thankfully not the same personnality but damn I was surprised.
I still don't know what to think about her, she's strange and probably not really able to properly take care of a child but she's not a bad person.
Once again I found it very realistic in the way of dealing with Rin's feelings, the whole thing about her wanting to keep her name and refusing Daikichi's proposal is spot on.
Once again and as usual Daikichi was adorable.
- Penguindrum : KOYASU TAKEHITO! There was Koyasu Takehito! I missed him so much!
Well, that episode raised quite a few questions, here are some of my random thoughts :
*Yuri might have a diary, either one of her own or one mirroring Ringo's so she'd be able to take action before she does.
*No matter how you look at it, this Aquarium is definitely suspicious. Everyone has been there, everyone bought a souvenir related to the penguins, so, is this is the great headquarters of the ultimate penguin conspiracy?
*Related to the previous point, that penguin symbol appears a bit too much to be a coincidence, you won't make me believe they're not related in some way or another.
*Are their parents's disappearance somehow related with the Penguindrum?
*Is the diary really the Penguindrum? I'm under the impression Boshi-sama wasn't very eager to get her hands on it when she could do so.
- No.6 : This made me hungry. Again. Honestly, don't name animals after pastries, especially if I happen to LOVE those.
- Idolm@ster : Are there people who blog about this? What do they write on their entries?
Nothing really happens but cute girls doing cute things, this week was at the beach.
Well, I still like this better than a failed attempt at plot.
- UtaPri : Oooh wuch an unexpected plot twist. *insert sarcasm here*
That and the fact that Miyano's singing ability seem to decrease at every episode.
Well I do like that kind of totally unrealistic personnality disorder so I won't complain that much. It was like having Shizu-chan in Utapri. Kinda nice.
- Dantalian no Shoka : Dalian is a fujoshi. A real one. She even wants to write fanfics now. I approve!
On the other hand, this was pretty interesting, blood and stuff like that are totally my cup of tea.
I'm still wondering whether or not there will be more to the plot than just this.
- Beelzebub : I absolutely hate Daisuke Kishio. Sorry.
But these new characters are kinda interesting and I like the girls (which is really rare in a Jump serie)
- KamiMemo : Want me to ramble a bit more about my love for Yondaime and his underlings, who are, in my opnion, all absolutely adorable?
I like Narumi more and more at every episode but my love for Alice decreases at every episode.
I do wonder what's going to happen now, especially since that Renji guy seems to be somehow related to the Yondaime.
- Tiger&Bunny : I'm depressed. I knew it would turn like that and it's no fun at all if it turns how I predict it.
BUT it raised more questions, who else did he use his ability on? Samantha obviously but what if he used it on the other company presidents? On the mayor(s)? On Yuri?
In any case shit will happen because there's no way the connection between him and Ouroboros decreased over the years, meaning my theory of "Ouroboros controls the city" is still valid!
And I'm damn sad whenever something happens between them, the timing sucked.
And Scarf-tan appeared twice! Is this a sign she's the real head of Ouroboros? Is there a clone army of Scarf-tans? (I don't really believe it but at this point it wouldn't even be surprising ^^)
Aaand to celebrate the lack of Sacred Seven to rant about AND the release of Stone Cold's single, have a song!

[1st episodeS]Is the idol business a trend in animes?
All of that to say that since I'm incredibly lazy (I already didn't see the point of reviewing the first episodes of the continuations, or, do you want me to?) and since it happens, fact oh so rare, that we have TWO animes dealing with the same topic this season I decided I should just do a common first impression post for the both of them.
So The Idolm@aster and Uta Prince-sama etc (come on, give me SHORT titles) both have to do with the process of creating idols. The only difference is in the target, the first is adapted from a galge, thus full of girls, the second is adapted from an otome game, thus full of pretty boys.
To be honest, both of them are so full of characters I can't even remember them.
The way of introducing them in both is good though, UtaPri goes slowly and little by little, Idolm@ster went through the interview route, which would be good, if characters weren't so numerous.
All in all nothing to say, being adapted from games there's a character for each stereotype.
Strangely enough I prefer the music of The Idolm@aster over the one for UtaPri, which is weird, considering my usual fangirlism for male seiyuu, but it would seem Mamo-chan has just forgotten how to sing. Never thought that voice acting would be the thing I'd complain about the most for that anime, never.
I expected that kind of music and voice acting for The Idolm@aster so no surprise but I'm really disappointed by the songs in UtaPri, it's to the point it almost hurt my ears.
Special mention for troll!principal Norio Wakamoto in Utapri and Hochuu Ohtsuka in the Idolm@aster, no one told me, I almost choked on my coffee.
And the plot, well, the plot is simple, let's take everyone to idoldom!
Can't do any simpler than that, well UtaPri is a a bit more complicated, being told from the point of view of a girl and all, plus being set in a school, there obviously will be drama.
I'm not convinced, by any of them.
The Idolm@ster will have to do something for me to remember the characters and UtaPri will have to prove itself to be a bit more interesting than just being pretty. (at least it is pretty ^^)
