Mohican Sandbag – 日常への入場

A little Mohican Sandbag to begin another year.

Happy 2013!

So now that I’ve started watching anime again on a fairly regular basis, I figured that I really needed to clear out the backlog of OPs that have accumulated over the past two years. (Yes, the last collection was in 2010.)

The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya – I married Haruhi. Seriously. Chekov is so similar to Haruhi, it’s downright scary. Also, this is the greatest movie ever.

Manabi Straight! – …I have no memory of this OP. I guess it didn’t leave an impression on me.

Fractale – This, on the other hand, is impossible to forget. Trippy and awesome.

Puella Magi Madoka Magica – It’s so happy! (And low-quality. Why are there no HD versions on YouTube? (Don’t answer that.))

Shinryaku! Ika Musume (OP1, OP2) – No video for the second one. Sigh.

A Summer Day’s Dream OP2 – Even better than the first one.

Hyouka (OP1, OP2) – I like the first one a lot better, but the ending of the second one is hilarious.

Chuunibyou – It’s so energetic! At first it was a little overwhelming, but I grew to love it.

And that’s all. More animes to come in 2013!

A true Christmas classic.

Golden City Factory – 無何有の郷 ～ Deep Mountain

If you’re reading this, then I guess it’s safe to say that the world intends to spin on.

Well…

…Carry on then.

One last anime before the world ends…

Chuunibyou is about Yuuta Togashi, a freshman in high school. While in middle school, he suffered from “adolescent delusions” (chuunibyou). He believed he possessed supernatural powers, and called himself the “Dark Flame Master”. He grew out of it, but not before alienating everyone in school. So he goes to a high school where nobody will know him.

One of his classmates in high school is still a chuunibyou. Rikka Takanashi possesses the Tyrant’s Eye (color contact), and she wears an eyepatch constantly. She wields the fearsome Schwarz ZX Prototype Mark II (a frilly umbrella).

Unfortunately for Yuuta, Rikka learns of his Dark Flame Master past, and becomes interested in him.

The best scene in Chuunibyo so far

The Whirlwind No. When regular nos just don’t cut it.

Also, the Dark Flame Master is really Zero in disguise.

IT’S HAPPENING

Three days. We have three days until December 21, 2012. The world is going to end in three days.

I’m too young to die!

I’M TOO NICE TO DIE!

I’M TOO ME TO DIE!
