I, My, Me, Strawberry Eggs


Amawa Hibiki is a young man just out of college, with an education to be an athletics teacher. He's been having a hard time finding a job since he graduated, so all his money has gone towards living expenses. When his landlady demands his first payment to live in her living establishment upfront, he heads to the local middle school to get hired as a teacher. However, the principal refuses to hire him without hesitation. She will not hire men as teachers and makes it clear that she hates all men, saying they put no love into their passions and work. Amawa does not give up and with the help of his landlady, he crossdresses as a woman without a second thought, and gets hired, so he can earn money and also prove the principal wrong. Now, he has to keep his real gender a secret, and avoid strange situations, including the affections of his students (from both genders).

As Love Comedy, I should of expect bits of fan services (which isn't bad... LOL). As series went by it was pretty much on going episode. Which I mean by is you gotta finish the series. I kept watching next episode to find out what's gonna happen. As result, I've finished all 13 episodes in one day. LOL Voice was first started out bit weird.... But after while it match that chara well that, I liked it. Graphic isn't bad for anime that made in 2001.

Minus
My biggest thing that I hate in the anime is "SUCKY ENDING"! All the anime that starts out good and have sucky ending always gets me.... It destroy the good anime. Well, this one I wouldn't say it's horrible, BUT I wouldn't say it's great ending either. I wish bit more better ending than how it ended (don't wanna spoiled the ending).

Rating
My over all rating will be bit harsh of 6/10

Gallery Fake


Fujita Reiji is the owner of an art gallery, Gallery Fake. He deals with fake items, and is also familiar with the black market. However, he has a special talent for art, and used to work for the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York as a curator.

Plus
I love those animes that connect anime and history into one. This anime has done it with Art history! It go from rare painting to rare watches. It's good learning for art history. Anime itself doesn't stop at the just basic art history, but it go into actions of gun shoots and love comedy. It has all the genre that I want to see in this kind of anime. Anime's art itself isn't bad at all, it's well done anime.

Minus
For this one, I'll just be picky. I wasn't too fan of some of the voice actor and actress they have chosen. Most of the main-chara's voices I don't have much complains, but other sub-charas, they might of chosen better voice actors and actresses for.


Rating
Over all of this anime rating I'll give
8/10

Shiawase-Sou no Okojo-San



Haruka Tsuchiya is a plain and simple university student who has a pet by the name of Okojo-san. Okojo-san was actually born in one of the mountains in the North and brought to one of the pet shops to be sold. Determined to get out of the pet shop, Okojo-san formulated an escape strategy and ended up in the house of Haruka. There are always funny and strange occurances happening around the two, be it the people or animals who are near them. This is a gag anime in which absurdity is the main feature of the story.

Plus
See the view point of pet's feeling and acts from both animal and human is pretty funny. The pet might think "What you wanna fight grrrrrr~~~~!", but for human "Are you hungry?" It's funny to see the main character almost never talks. When he talks he only say "Ah!" or "Thank you" other than that he only nods. Same time Kojopi the Okojo is really tough guy and try to fight with everyone. Each episode has 2 stories and both of them is unique and has good laugh at it.

Minus
Things that I see that make this anime a boring is that, even though one episode has 2 stories to it, story flow really slow. If you watch is anime in late night, I can guarentee to fall a sleep. Maybe how they prep for good part is bit boring that make this anime bit doll.

Rating
It's bit hard to give this anime a rating, but this is my rating 4/10

Girl's High




Eriko and her friends Yuma and Ayano are excited about entering high school. Their excitement leads to their breaking of the rules when they toured the school before the opening ceremony. They find out their preconceptions about the all female school may not be as true as they had first thought. Despite that, Eriko and her friends are joined by new friends. They aim to get through high school life together.


Plus

As anime, it's pretty amazing to see this kind of genre to publish on TV. Yes, that much of panty shots and other fan services were in this anime..... But it wasn't bad in my opinion, more like it made this anime a lot more funny! It's daily life of 6 high school girls, but some episodes are just bit more over board to make it funny, other are just regular girls problems that they go through.


Minus

Each episode has their problem and those 6 girls go through is fine, but too much pointless crazy happenings are making this anime so lame. How they solve the problems is too quick or too stupid way didn't match the way this anime should be.... I kinda hope little bit more from this anime.

Over all rating I'll give is 5/10

Nodame Cantabile


At a top music academy in Japan, Shinichi Chiaki's arrogance is matched only by his top-notch piano playing. But when Chiaki and the teacher get into a fight, he's demoted to the reject class. Chiaki is left to pursue his dream of being a composer while surrounded by a bunch of loser musicians and one annoying girl, Noda, who has proclaimed herself Chiaki's girlfriend. It doesn't help that Noda, who insists on being called Nodame, lives right next door to him.....

Which Animenewsnetwork is commenting for the plot.

Plus
I've only seen up til episode 12, but the series go til episode 24 (half way done), but name itself is pretty funny. Even if you're not into classical music due to comedy mix in this anime that make this series a lot more interesting. Voice casts were chosen well too. I didn't expect to hear Sgt. Sagara from Full Metal Panic voice actor: Seki, Tomokazu as main hero Chiaki, Shinichi. At the same time, I think it was good choice. Because how Shinichi get upset and yell at Nodame or other friends was "Just fit" in my opinion.

Minus
Maybe only things that I don't like about it might be the speed of storyline. It's okay to pace up the anime series, but over using is bit of annoying. Some of the part you don't know what happened because they didn't show it in the anime, but only in manga. So fans that know about this serie before it came out on anime know, a lot more than fans that start watching from anime is bit off-guard of what is going on.

Rating
So far rating I'll give is 7/10
