My January 2016 Anime PT 1

It's the start of the new year, and I've been immersing myself in many anime, and have been binge watching them one after another. I thought I would write about them a little bit.

I'd like to make an honorable mention to "The Devil is a Part Timer", as I watched it on the 30th and 31st of December! It was great!

Seven Deadly Sins

Seven Deadly Sins is about a group of legendary villains known as the "Seven Deadly Sins", a young princess named Elizabeth is on a search for the Sins. It turns out that the Seven Deadly Sins are the good guys, and the kingdom that went corrupt, wants them dead or alive.

My Thoughts: Seven Deadly Sins was a very fun anime, it was just like all of the great shows from back in the day. It has a great cast of characters with interesting abilities, and it has a good way of balancing the light hearted tones, and the darker parts of the anime.

K

K is about 7 people known as Kings, these people have magical abilities, and are able to form groups of people that they can bestow their abilities to. Yashiro Isana is a normal student, except when he finds out he is the number one suspect in a murder! The video evidence sure looks like him! Did he really kill someone, and not remember? K is about Yashiro finding out who the murderer is, finding out what kind of King he is and just making sense of it all.

My Thoughts: K was a really good anime, and it had such a "Durarara!!" vibe to it! It was a fun anime, that left me wanting more. It had lot's of bromance and shounen-ai undertones.

Rokka no Yuusha - Braves of Six Flowers

Rokka is about a terrible demon that is resurrected after a certain amount of centuries, a powerful goddess bestows her abilities upon 6 heroes, these heroes must gather together to fight the evil demon god.

But what happens when everyone comes to a meeting point, and there are 7 people there? Obviously one must be a fake that is working for the demons!

This action adventure fantasy quickly becomes a "Who done it" type of anime, and not the magical adventure anime it comes across as.

My Thoughts: I actually didn't read the description when I started watching this anime, so I thought that them finding out who the fraud was, would be like a 2 episode thing. I didn't realize it would take the rest of the show to find out who it was! 

It's a really good show, once it gets to the mystery, it gets really good! I originally thought that maybe there wasn't a fake member, and that having 7 members would be a sign that they would finally defeat the terrible demon once and for all.

Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc

15 students go to a new school, only to find out that they have become trapped inside of an unseal-able school. The only way to escape is by murdering another student, and getting away with the murder! When a student is murdered, a class trial will take place, and is held by a robotic (And psychotic, but funny) bear named Monokuma. The students must figure out who the killer is, if they guess right, they live and the murderer is executed. If they guess wrong, all of the students will be killed, and the murderer is set free!

My Thoughts: The show is very sick and twisted, but as the show goes on. It turns into more of a "What's really going on" type of show, as the remaining students try to figure out what is going on and how to escape this school. They find out some shocking facts, and there are a few plot twists.

Akame Ga Kill

Akame Ga Kill is a bit like Seven Deadly Sins, as the main characters are assassins and are seen as the bad guys. When in reality, they are the good guys trying to defeat a corrupt government.

My Thoughts: I actually could not finish this anime.It's one of those shows where the main characters drop like flies, and I just couldn't do it anymore. I hate getting attached to a character, just for them to die in two episodes. But it's a good show, and it has many likable characters as well.
