Sypnosis ~
One day, Takamiya Naho
receives a letter written to herself from ten years in the future. As Naho
reads on, the letter recites the exact events of the day, including the
transfer of a new student into her class named Naruse Kakeru.
The Naho from ten years later repeatedly states that she has many regrets, and she wants to fix these by making sure the Naho from the past can make the right decisions—especially regarding Kakeru. What's more shocking is that she discovers that ten years later, Kakeru will no longer be with them. Future Naho asks her to watch over him closely

Dopes Says –
This Manga is probably the
most heartbreaking story you will read with a twist of futuristic qualities,
although things like this have been used over and over this story however
delivers! The story takes place with Naho who reads a letter and finds herself
questioning where it comes from when events start to happen around her does
she relaise that the letters are all real. It has a spooky effect hearing one
self from the future repeating the past to save someone. Its probably going to
be a quality live action as well when they decide to make it hopefully the
characters deliver.
Dopes rates ~
The story takes place with
six friends who have an amicable personality for every single one of them which
brings them a lot closer. What you have to do is read closer to get their
distinct personalities from each. Whats beautiful is that they do seem
stereotypical, but they have a great understanding as sub characters in the
story. Yet they are drawn together because of the one letter they all received
which helps them deliver the purpose of the Manga itself.
The relationship between
the trio main characters are great, they execute the triangle to a point of
budding friendship that doesn’t get spoiled. Kakeru however, as a main
protagonist is a shade of mystery what Takano does is make him so mysterious
you never know if he knew about the letters if he got on himself, if he realise
that others are helping him survive without revealing it. Its a enigmatic
storyline with a need of answers. What
we do get is sections of the timeline switches and POV, which helps us
understand his mindset a bit more and the other characters.
Dopes dislikes –
I found that Kakeru is
quite selfish, but then again this topic is a sudden taboo for a lot of people
for me. His need of reasoning was bitter. However, despite all that his
relationship towards Suwa and Naho is quite oblivious at times, its like
forcing someone to eat. But nevertheless that was the only problem I had.
Dopes conclusion ~
This Artwork for this
Manga is so good that its a great fit for the Manga. I love the style to the
point of the details they all point in each character. Even to the point of
their future selves that they have a look of maturity as well which I found
endearing. So far only 19 chapters have been released so I wont say too much
but from what I gathered it is a wonderful Manga with a list of drama, romance
a sense of sci-fi and a little bit of mystery as well. Altogether im quite
proud of Takano she made a Manga which will be always remembered in my eyes. I
hope you enjoy it as much as I do and when the live action comes out I hope it
also portrays the characters in a similar light as the Manga for me nothing beats
that! So check it out when you can.
UPDATE!!!
I have finally read the final chapter!! Honestly I cannot express how happy and sad I am it is over this manga had so many feels that I couldn't express. All day I couldn't get over how great the ending was, so open and so amazing. I hope there will be extra chapters or so but if not I believe it has ended with a bittersweet feeling of hope!
Honestly if no one has read it you must, its so different with so many emotional moments. I feel happy for the outcome of it all! Now I will go and wallow in my pettiness of finding another great manga like this.
Thank you Takano Ichigo you made such a beautiful story that I can't express it!! <3
p.s SUWA WILL ALWAYS BE MY BABY <3 I want to meet a guy like him!! T___T

Mirai Nikki - Future diary ~ ヾ(´･ω･｀)
Type: TV
Episodes: 26
Status: Finished Airing
Aired: Oct 9, 2011 to Apr 15, 2012
Producers: FUNimation EntertainmentL, Lantis, Kadokawa Shoten, Asread, Rakuonsha, Kadokawa Pictures Japan, The Klock Worx, chara-ani.com, 12 Diary Holders, Dwango, Sakura Create
Genres: Action, Mystery, Shounen, Supernatural, Psychological, Thriller
Duration: 23 min. per episode
Rating: R+ - Mild Nudity
This psychological thriller, based on the manga written and illustrated by Sakae Esuno, is about Yuki, a loner who's not very good with people. He prefers to write a diary on his cell phone and talk to his imaginary friend, Deus Ex Machina – The God of Time and Space. However, Yuki soon learns that Deus is more than a figment of his imagination when he makes Yuki participate in a battle royale with eleven others. The contestants are given special diaries that can predict the future, each diary possessing unique features that give it both advantages and disadvantages. Within the next 90 days, the contestants must try to survive until there is only one left standing. The winner will become the new God of Time and Space.
Ok, so where do I start I read the manga first before watching it. Because I am one of those who likes to read to get the gist and actually like it before I watch it. And let me tell you I was happy I did because its honestly a really good survival anime. Its so wonderfully scripted and written well however some may disagree and I would say that they might be right but meh. I was at first wary because I did not want something of battle royale coming back but in futuristic style. I was wrong because from being slow paced at first it had become fast paced, its highly popular and some may not agree and give it average opinions but for me I am surprised by its consistency of twists.
With only 12 participants unknown identity, they all must battle for the throne of the deus ex machina. It is probably a very interesting concept of a written diary by phone, from what it looked like the diary itself is the owner and once that is destroyed aka phone. Then you will not live any longer either its a survival of the best. And what Yuki does is just that with the help of several people and of course the crazy Yandare Yuno.
Overall there wasnt a lot of character development besides here and there number 9 being one in depth. Yuno and Yuki were the main stars of course. It was a series of plot twists which I loved and it engraved into a lovely set of scenes with psychological thrillers. I am extremely surprised and happy about this anime so i wont continue to gravel about it. I loved the animation and music, I think the development between yuno and yuki were at most creepy but sweet.
Its not the best of the best or the worst. Its smack dab as wonderful though something different for a different plotline and all I recommend this to those who havent touched it. Its worth every watch plus you can tick of the list as to why you watched it and wonder what was wrong with it in the first place!
So get watching and I'll leave you with some songs for now ~

The stage is Ayanagi City, a city near the Japan Sea. It is a futuristic city that was built to carry out the recovery from the calamity caused by the "Apathy Syndrome" ten years previous. High school student Shin Kanzato with his little brother Jun, meet with their elder brother Ryou, who is the chief of the Ayanagi City Police, again after ten years. At that time, a series of strange incidents happen in Ayanagi City such as the crew of a submarine that suddenly disappears while in their submarine, or a spiritless symptom which disturbs the world after ten years, or the case of the inside out corpse where a student took on a cruel appearance. Ryou tracks down the organization behind the string of incidents, and having become involved in the incidents, Shin awakens the "Persona."
A little overview with this series as I wasn't too keen on it, for me people went all about persona, and I adore persona for those who played the games like I did. This series is very lacking if people are looking for persona vs persona fights it only focuses on the story.
Dont get me wrong, it was a slow paced anime but to me it didnt decipher persona in general. I love the characters and animation it looked really fluid and dark. Because it only focuses on the story the whole colour palette was somber which was fine. I would have liked more of course as it was confusing it didnt grasp me but other people may like it.
overall for me it wasn't to my taste the animation is what got me interested more though so points to that. the music suited atmosphere of the anime. Give it a go if you feel like in a dark mood that is.

After signing a contract in which he "accepts his fate of his own free will," the main character battles with the other members of SEES against the Greater Shadows, incarnations with traits and appearances similar to those of the first 12 Major Arcana of the Tarot. While this is occurring, he continues to encounter and eventually befriends the child who gave him the contract to sign at the very beginning of the game, an entity who refers to himself as Pharos, and is really the incarnation of Death, the 13th Arcana.
I really enjoyed this one, it was different compared to the first one. the storyline was outstanding to me, the characters all have unique personalities which are proven through the show of course. If anyone played the actual game they know what goes on.
The animation this time wasn't to my liking but I didnt mind because the story made up for it. The show is about an ordinary guy who has to save the work, having bold teamates created good battles. Power of friendship is very evident in this series compared to the first one I talked about. The music suited the movie in general the manga was also strange but you might grow to like it like I did.
Persona 4 takes place in a rural town named Inaba. There have been mysterious murders occurring whenever there was fog after heavy rain. There were also rumors about a channel on television airing only at midnight called Mayonaka TV, during which it is said that one can see his/her "other half" when staring at the TV screen.
If you think the movie was great, this is another great comeback for Persona, this time it involvess a TV! how bizarre but in general I think this is by far the best one. Its probably the best video game I have played so far I mean series wise its really good.
Because its similar to the game the animation for the anime is the same, its clean and sharp and very vibrant. The characters are really interesting and very lovable. For me the action scenes are what makes persona 4 the animation. The music itself really suited the show as its quite the same from the game really not much change but if you like the game you would like this then.
The anime is a very faithful adaptation of the game and I am very pleased by it. I am glad that its quite similar as well and I really enjoyed the characters in general too, for me it was plus point. I dont want to talk too much about it but you get the gist. You either played and loved the game you would love this too, but if you haven't, you must give it a try.
Overall I would like to say I am generally surprised by the adaptation of the show in general. But would like to point out that persona 4 was my fave anyway. I really enjoyed watching all of the shows though so I wasn't too bothered by it, so for those who have played the game will enjoy the shows I am sure but for those who still haven't and would like to give a go to the show then make sure you have popcorn!
I shall leave with a couple of songs ~

Tasogare Otome x Amnesia - Dusk Maiden of Amnesia (*ﾟ0ﾟ)ﾊｯ
Status: Finished Airing
Aired: Apr 9, 2012 to Jun 25, 2012
Producers: Media Factory, Silver Link, Sentai FilmworksL, Tasogare Otome×Amnesia Production Partners
Genres: Mystery, Horror, Romance, School, Shounen, Supernatural
Duration: 24 min. per episode
Rating: R - 17+ (violence & profanity)
Synopsis :
The story revolves around a first-year middle school student, Teiichi Niiya who had just enrolled at Seikyou Private Academy. When he gets lost in one of the school's old buildings, he meets a girl named Yuko Kanoe who reveals herself as a ghost with no memories. Teiichi then decides to investigate her death by looking through the school's seven mysteries revolving around her. Throughout the story, Teiichi and Yuko discover the truth about these ghost stories and help those who are troubled.
So here I go with another review, Dusk maiden of amnesia. Has got to be the most unique Anime I have ever watched. Beyond that, it's the most touching one I have seen for a 2012 line up. It's that great, so here I will begin my review. Teiichi Niiya is your average boy, well was until he could see Yuko the little ghost that haunts the school. You know the hot ghost you always want following you around and so forth. Yeah Teiichi the lucky runt has the beautiful Yuko around him. He tries to solve the seven mysteries of the the school. Only to find a more deeper filled meaning towards the ghost he happens to have near him.
probably the most thorough Anime, with an amazing plot line. The characters were defined to a extent where nothing was left out. I felt like it was great to see that it had a back story and connected so well with everything. There was no plot holes or anything, it all added up. The Anime did have a lot of nudity involved but it's normal for me. I really enjoyed the seven mysteries and the eeriness towards it and how it all connected with Yuko. To think she also has a descendant as well who also can see ghosts. Yuko has always been alone, she really misses the school and you can tell, it was seriously sad to see her. The loneliness and pain she had felt who would understand.
It was quite amazing to see that Yuko also had the hate version of her come out. That was splendid, and so real in some sense. She tries hard to forget about her past and make it into an amnesia but there's one thing you cannot forget: you can't run away from your problems like an amnesia.
Overall, it's one of the best ones I have encountered and you guys must watch it! Total fan service when you need it, with a hint of love and exceptional scenes of scenaries that you would enjoy. The music was amazing and so was the animation. The irony of the series was got to be gorgeous as well as the various well captured angles of "dusk" in this anime and the night moon skies. So good that it made me melt with happiness.
So people get watching, I shall leave you with some music now!
