This week’s episode returns with more bread! Looking back, I can sorta see why the first two episodes are what they are. The bread bit was so they could meet Rana, who would tell them about the storm. They save people from the storm, and the storm brings the mystery girl that washes ashore at [...]

The bread of happiness! While “Shining Hearts ~Shiawase no Pan~” is not a “Yakitate!! Japan” type comedy about baking bread, the first two episodes had a leisurely slice-of-life atmosphere about them which I adored. Adapted from the PSP role playing game “Shining Hearts”, my main interest in the show stems from the fact the character [...]

When a storm comes, what should you do? Make bread of course! Needless to say, this episode gave the same feeling as the first episode, except for the arrival of a massive storm. I don’t know, but making and delivering bread isn’t that exciting. I mean, there are tons of things that excite me such [...]

Sneak peeks are now down to three shows instead of four, because there’s only six shows left. That makes three for this post, and three for the next. Yes, I know Acchi Kocchi and Sankarea have already been out a while, but since I’m anal about choosing sub groups, I’ve only now decided on which [...]

It’s about people and Bread. Well, it’s not that BAD as that Kakera. There’s a fare share of cute girls and bishounen. I am fine with the male lead, but he’s Yuuji everlead, so that’s not helping. The women are your stereotype bitches that has an fathomable admiration to the male lead’s bread. There’s isn’t [...]

Shining Hearts, I’m sure a lot of people are drawn to this series for its character artist; the famous Tony Taka. I personally fell in love with his works after playing Shining Tears. Later I found out that he also excels ‘adult’ artworks. First episode and I’m pretty sure that its impressions to some are either hanging in the air or not so very good. It has this slice-of-life thing

Prepare your bodies for a show about bread. Okay I lied … it’s not JUST about bread. Am I the only one who decided to watch it for that reason though? There’s also action, a fantasy setting, and a plethora of girls for our main character Rick to befriend. (Yes, his name is Rick.) “I’m sorry [...]

This show, frankly, sucks. Animation-wise, this is like Jormungand, only with slightly more actual movements and much less atmospheric tension. Feast your eyes on the unrelenting montage of static images! This is literally a slideshow of pretty pictures. At least Jormungand … Continue reading →

Wow, Bread of Happiness just can’t win with anime bloggers, can it? Several people are bashing it because they fell asleep, others bash it because they found it unbelievably insipid and monotonous, and I bash it because I actually enjoyed it and stayed awake throughout the entire thing with no trouble. To many people that [...]

Like it says on the tin, the first episode has a lot of bread and happiness… Before watching this, I expected some excitement as seen when I watched the first episode of Tears to Tiara. With that, I have the same expectations since Shining Hearts is a Japanese RPG part of the Shining series produced [...]

Our lead character is a baker who bakes the bread of happiness along with a harem of adoring assistants. This is like a bad version of Shukufuku no Campanella. And Shukufuku no Campanella was bad enough to begin with. One … Continue reading →
