Finished!

So I finally finished Future Diary and what am amazing ride it was.  At the risk of spoiler alerts, I'll say that it was a good story with the right amount of blood and excitement.  I will say that a lot of the more gratuitous and bloody scenes were censored, but viewers are able to tell what's going on with little difficulty.  As I said, Yuno is that ride-or-die chick that a lot of guys would want at their sides when the ish went left, but for all her good intentions, homegirl still gave the impression that she was two apples short of the basket. You feel bad for some of the players of the diary game. Some, not all. Quite frankly, my heart hurt a little when the two-player team Seven's story ended tragically. As a viewer, you don't get much background story on a lot of the players, but you understand Seven's (Ai and Marco) story pretty well after an episode. I actually teared up a little, babies. #noshame

Here is my only problem with Future Diary. It ended with me screaming, "Oh, what the holy-----!" at the screen. I need more, lots more. There better be another season or there is going to be one mad Chick.

Future Diary Madness

As a lover of anime, I usually find myself wanting more in my experiences of watching it. I don't consider myself a snob of any kind, but I want more in my options of viewing than Narturo, Bleach and DBZ. I'm over that completely. I want something that will shock me, not bore me. (For all you Bleach and Narturo fans out there, this is not hate, just a personal opinion.) So I went searching last night for something I hadn't seen, something new and exciting. And Deus Ex Machina did I find it.

Future Diary.

My god, this show is.....amazing. At first, I thought it was some coming of age story, high school kid, a loner with a mother who works too much, no real friends, into his phone waaaayyyy too much. Yukiteru Amano is a kid like most these days, he rather be glued to his phone than make real friends, posting diary entries about his day. His "imaginary" friends include a god, Deus Ex Machina, and his servant, Murmur.  Deus then gives Yuki a special diary to where he knows what's going to happen beforehand. So creepy. Turns out Deus Ex Machina isn't that imaginary and the diary Yuki has....other people have too. Deus wants to play a game, a very deadly game that involve the diary holders killing off each other until there is a winner. The winner becomes a god. Fortunately for Yuki, he has a friend....of sorts. Yuno Gasai is a diary holder too.....and obsessed with Yuki.

Ok, so maybe a crazy stalker chick isn't too bad when you think of the fact that Yuno wants to keep Yuki alive and well. Just hope she doesn't go insane. Having a ride-or-die chick at your side isn't that bad of a life, especially if you get to be a god at the end.

I just watched the first episode last night and I am hooked, babies. 29 to go and I'm looking forward to all of them. If there are any fans of this show, let me know your thoughts and opinions. Tell your Chick everything!

It's Back!

Hello, my babies!!!! Did you miss me? I missed you too. Sorry for the loooonnggg delay in anime news, but that's what happens when life gets in the way. Suffice it to say that my anime had to take a backseat for a while, but that's ok because the anime never stopped. So get ready, my otaku peeps.....the Chick is back.
