True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
... View MoreEasily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
... View MoreI think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
... View MoreIf you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
... View MoreI happened to stumble upon this anime a long time ago with Time Warner Cable's On Demand(and back when it was awesome). Years later, I found this again on Youtube and I love it! It's interesting, funny, and quite cheesy at times. However, it also warmed my heart when it came to their touching moments in the series and quite frankly, no other has been able to do this yet(I'm male and 14 yrs old)! Despite all this, the plot seems to change after a few episodes as each episode seems to take a plot of its own instead of staying to the series story. It can really confuse many but, do let it stop you from watching it. In the end, Maburaho is quite entertaining and can feel rushed at times but, i can guarantee that most anime lovers will fall in love with this show!
... View Morei don't know about everyone else but i regard this show as the greatest. through the first 12 episodes you meet the main characters first there is of course Kazaki he attends Aoi academy one of the most prestigious schools for magic-users but he can only use his magic 8 times before he turns to ash. As the story goes 3 girls are trying to get his genes first there is Rin who i loved, she was so serious and always carried around her Katana and when she pulled it out you know it was on how could you not love a girl who wields a katana LOL. Then the is Kurinko who is just about the sexiest woman around. Then there is by far my favorite Yuna (shikimori) Miyama she is basically the total package beautiful, smart, loving, oh and INSANELY JEALOUS LOL! and of course the supporting characters really help make this show what it is why without Nakamura i don't know how funny the show would have been. But in episode 13 we got to meet a new character Shino who was as sexy as Kurinko, as the story goes Kazaki used up all his magic in episode 12 but he didn't turn to ash he turned into a ghost and Shino wanted to add him to her ghost collection. as the show progressed the girls tried to turn Kazaki back to a human while having to deal with Shino. i wont ruin how the show ends but i will say you wont be disappointed i seriously recommend adding this fantastic show to your anime collection.
... View MoreWhen I first heard about the plot line for Maburaho, I rolled my eyes and thought this was going to be a dud. Fortunately I took a chance on it, and turned it out to be much better than I expected.The story is set in an alternate reality, where a persons ability to use magic as well as the number of times one can use magic determines their social status. The main character, Kazuki Shikimori, is an all around nice guy, who unfortunately can only use magic eight times. This being the case, he's considered a loser. However, he and others come to learn that his genes give him the ability to produce powerful offspring. With this being known, every girl in the school wants to get Kazuki's genes. Thus begins our wild and crazy ride.I found the plot to be fun although at times silly, and I found myself enjoying the characters. The animation is nicely done in the typical anime style as well as the coloration. While not all the jokes hit the mark, most of them did which was made this show work. There were also a number of sentimental scenes, especially in the latter part of the series, which help balance the series nicely.Anyone who loves anime, will probably enjoy this series, especially if they like fan service. While this series may not be the paragon of the genre, it is still a fun way to pass the time. Maburaho is definitely worth a look.
... View MoreI have always been a fan of live action film. Only occasionally will I sit down to appreciate a comedic or adventuresome cartoon. To me, anime became popular if it involved the act of collecting and battling. It was not until one day I noticed some cover art for Maburaho that I was intrigued by this genre.And I am pleased to say that this has altered my opinion of anime altogether. It wasn't the medium that I disliked, but the various plots that I had seen before that caused me to dismiss it.The story revolves around a young adult named Kazuki Shikimori. He feels downtrodden because his magic count is depressingly low compared to his peers at a magic-user's school. Then one day he finds himself being sought after by three gorgeous classmates. Later he discovers that he is a critical heir in a long line of famous magicians, and that his children would most likely become extremely powerful magic users, thus the reason for his three tagalongs.The show has great moments of comedy, tenderness and suspense. I watched the first four episodes and was pleasantly surprised. I can't wait to see how the rest of it turns out. I have high hopes for it though.
