AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!! This makes me feel horrible because I was hoping to be without a bad watch for a whole lot longer into the year. Such a shame regarding this and season two of Nogizaka Haruka. Hey, I’m not going to hide the fact that I was really hyped up about a season two. After watching [...]

Noto~~!! <3 Another year, another time to wish Noto happy birthday again. The past year has been pretty Notoble, with her voicing a few roles she has voiced before in sequels, namely Notozaka Haruka in Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu Purezza and Toudou Shimako in Marimite 4. But her new roles were also awesome, with the most [...]

It’s such a big turn off for me liking this show. Sure, the first season wasn’t the pinnacle of anime, but hey I liked the romance. I liked Haruka and Yuuto and the humorous situations they got into. First season was decent but jeez something happened and now season two is filled with a ton [...]

Haruka invites everyone on an onsen trip. Impressions: I thought this episode was pretty good. It wasn’t anything special, as there are plenty of onsen episodes in anime, but this episode was just fun. I thought it was an interesting way to end off the series, by having this kind of fun episode after the big conflict [...]

What I originally got from this was that this show had a lot of similarities to Nogizaka Haruka, in that it had a maid with glasses, a small maid with blonde hair that couldn’t speak, a shitload of maids, maids, and some maids (there really weren’t that many maids in Nogizaka, but whatever). There was [...]

I’ll come out in say it–the second season of Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu isn’t that great. Well, half of it is great. The other half isn’t so much. The good half is the part that plays on the strengths of season 1–that being the romance between Yuuto and Haruka. To make it even sweeter they layer [...]

When last season started, I quickly came to the conclusion that there would be a couple good shows, and a bunch of crap. However, I was pleasantly surprised to see a few surprisingly good shows (Kampfer), a few surprisingly bad ones (Nogizaka Haruka 2), and a lot of mediocrity (Nyan Koi). I am tempted to [...]

Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu centers around Yūto Ayase and Haruka Nogizaka. Yūto is seemingly ordinary, but Haruka is attractive, intelligent, and rich, which prompts other students to idolize her and even give her French nicknames like “Nuit Étoile” (The Silver Star of the Night) and “Lumière du Clavier” (The Shining Princess on the Piano). One [...]
