Chara Battle Round 1: Otaku Gals or Fujyoshi

There area quite a few otaku gals out there so i had to trim my list down to my favourite characters.

Chara 1: Izumi Konata (Legendary Girl A)

Chara 2: Tamura Hiyori (Certified Yuri Doujinshi Artist)

Chara 3: Patricia Martin (Gaijin Otaku Cosplayer)

Chara 4: Ogiue Chika (Certified Yaoi Doujinshi Artist)

Okay, so now we have our contestants ready, we shall look into them on different categories.


1. Contribution to Otaku Culture.

Konata: The name says it all, Legendary Girl A. Any doujinshi she buys turns into instant hits and if her room is any indicator, she buys lots of goods and merchandises as well.


Hiyori: She draws doujinshi and yuri doujinshi at that! If thats not contribution to the otaku culture then i dont know what is.

Patricia: After analyzing her character, i have come to the conclusion that her contribution to the otakudom is significant. Firstly she intends to spread otakuism in her native country(U.S.A which sadly has been hit by a huge growth in Narutards). Secondly she listens to alot of anime music which means that she should have bought quite a few character CDs and contributed to the fandom.

Ogiue: She draws Yaoi doujinshi, which caters to the Fujyoshi section of the Otaku crowd. She has also participated in the creation of male oriented Doujinshis so she has indeed done the Otakudom proud. Plus, if i am not mistaken, she has been sighted at many doujinshi events, picking up loads of yaoi doujins.

2.Cosplay Potential.

Konata: High. Cosplaying Haruhi is reason enough for that, plus she can cosplay Shana as well if she wanted to(fanboying alert!!).

Hiyori: Unknown. I personally havent seen her cosplay yet. But she is a meganekko, so the possibilities are limitless.

Patricia: Very High. She cosplays as Mikuru-chan. Enough said


Ogiue: High. If recent episodes of Genshiken 2 are anything to go by, her cosplay potential is slowly being revealed by Oho.

3.Others. aka random stuff.

Konata: Plays online games and is teh awesome at fighting games. I think she and Kousaka can go one on one.

Hiyori: A meganekko. Moe level +10

Patricia: Gaijin who is proficient in Japanese. Respect + 10

Ogiue: Always harassed by Ohno about cosplay. Moe level + 15

Conclusion: I cant really decide on a winner since i like them all. But if i have to pick one i think it will be Hiyori. I love meganekkos and it is a huge plus when she is an otaku as well. But thats just me.

If you have any opinions do let me hear about it.^^

Special Mention: Hiiragi Kagami.

She loves Full Metal Panic and so do I. Plus she has a twintail, is a Tsundere, has an awesome Zettai Ryouiki, and has a twin sister.(sorry for stealing that pic lanie-emon, it was too moe to ignore)

And here's some random pics for your enjoyment.

My First Ever Post

And it will be a midseason anime review!!
ok, i know that i am really late to the game with this but bear with me please while i try to sort out the good and the poo from this season's anime.

We shall begin with the GOOD

From left to right: Fuko,Nagisa,Kyou

CLANNAD (obligatory bishoujo game adaptation of the season)
I really like Clannad not because i am a Kyoani fanboy( which i am) or a sucker for Key's games(again guilty) but because the story is really nicely laid out(i dont see any pacing problems so far unlike AIR), the pacing is good and well the voice acting is above par. So, give it a try, im sure you will like it. If you wont do it for me, do it for Nagisa-chan pleaseeeee.

From left to right: Kirino, Saya, Tamaki, MiyaMiya, Satori.

Bamboo Blade (girls with swords are pure win anime of the season)
Kendo girls, what more do i need to say?? That is of course if you discount the fact that the main characters are some of the funniest i have seen so far. Tamaki is pure awesomeness with her kendo skills, Kirino is the free spirit of the cast, Saya is as random as canonball, Miya Miya is pure yandereness, haven't seen much of Satori yet but am sure she will compliment the cast perfectly and oh did i mention, the kendo club teacher is voiced by Katsuyuki Konishi who also voiced Kamina in Gurren Lagann.

From left to right: Minami Chiaki, Kana,and Haruka.

Minami-ke (slice of life anime of the season)
Three sisters of the Minami family living under one roof without parental supervision makes a perfect recipe for some yuri loving!!(just kidding) This anime mainly focuses around the antics of the Minami sisters and how they go about their daily lives.(no robots or witches or whatever of that sort) The Minami sisters are bolstered by a great supporting cast which includes Ono Daisuke as the voice of the ever weird but just slightly cool Hosaka sempai who has a crush on the eldest of the Minami sisters.(did i mention that he hugs fishes. errr creepy.....)

From left to right:Sasahara, Ohno, Kucchi, Saki, Madarame, Kousaka, Ogiue, Tanaka(whiteheadband), and Kugayama

Genshiken 2 (otakuism anime of the season)
Well, the name pretty much says it all doesn't it. This is another slice of life anime but it is the life of otakus instead of the usual fare of extremely moe girls. If you need me to explain this to you, you shouldn't be watching anime any more and just go do something else!!!
