Cards of the day

Ally of Justice Catastor
Monster/Synchro/Dark/Lv 5/ATK 2200/ DEF 1200
Effect:
1 tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner monsters
If this card battle a non-Dark monster, destroy that monster without applying damage calculation.

Check:
This card is a savior against all non-Dark monster especially against lightsworn, spirit reaper, and other monster card that cannot be destroyed by battle because of Catastor effect destroy monster despite of its attack before the damage step. Since the effect happened before damage step, honest would be ineffective against this card.
Drawbacks of this card:
- It won't inflict battle damage to monster that has lower ATK than this monster.
- It's effect cannot be activated when battling a face down monster.
If you want to know ruling about this card, please visit yugioh wikia

For those YGO lovers, sorry for the long absent of cards of the day section. I'll try to keep adding new cards to the cards of the day section.

Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou

Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou is an anime with gender: shonen, romance, ecchi, comedy, sci-fi, magic.

Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou is about a transferred high school student, sai akuto, who transferred to prestigious magic academy in the capital city to become the high priest of the capital city. During the entrance of the magic academy, all student will be forecasted by a magical device. However the fate of sai akuto is different from his dream, instead of becoming high priest, he is destined to be demon lord. In his attendance to the art of magic academy, he meet with several girls whom interested in him either to kill, enslave, protect and observe.

Since this is a romance comedy with lot of ecchi stuff, it would be better if you watch this anime for further clarification because I don't want to give too much spoilers.

First impression of this anime, it looks like a harry potter because of the magical device that forecast someone class. However the rest of the 1st episode after the assignment of jobs, similar to any romance comedy with ecchi stuff and magical such as maburaho(the 2nd episodes makes me sure this anime is like maburaho).

Sub to be use: For uncensored version of the anime, Sub-Desu because it is the only subber that sub the uncensored version of this anime.
For censored, Crunchy-subs is pretty good, fast, and reliable subber.


See you at the next anime review.

Heroman

HEROMAN -Yes this is an anime title. First impresion, this anime is like rockman EXE/megaman NET, but I hope it would not have the same storyline as rockman EXE, which full of crappy side story after the first season.

Heroman is a story about a boy named Joey who lives in somewhere in USA's west coast area and grows up with his grandmother. Joey always bullied by Lina's(Lina comes from rich family and she seems fond to Joey) brother and his gang and always saved by Joey's friend, Psy. Joey bullied by Lina's brother and his gangs because Joey is an orphan and comes from poor family thus, require him to work part time to survive in this world.

One day, Joey pick up a broken toy which tossed away by one of Lina's brother friend. During the same time alien starting to come to earth to destroy it. However when the alien come out from warp, the excess energy of the warp hit earth causing a thunder storm. Out of no where, thunder suddenly struck on the repaired robot toys and causing it to have ability to become a giant robot controlled by Joey.

This is the start of the Heroman, after watching the 2nd episode of this anime I realized this anime has normal plot of classic alien invasion story.

For the subber, I highly recommend the CrunchyRoll subs.
FYI: gg fansub already declared that they will retire from subber.

Angel Beats

Finally, a new anime come up. Time to get busy one more time with this blogs. I apologize for for those who follows this blogs for being absent for a while. I'm preparing for transition to this blogs just wait and see in a week, there would be a surprise.

Okay let's gear things up, by doing Angel Beats review. Angel Beats is another anime based on Key's artwork, my first impression of this anime is like Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi(Suzumiya Haruhi no Yutsu) because of the so-called "battlefront" and the arrogance of the captain of this brigades while the main chara of this story seems like Kyon, the pro-antagonist chara in Suzumiya Haruhi no Yutsu.

The anime started with the main character wake up in a front yard of a school at night to make things worse, he got amnesia. After he wake up, all of sudden there is this girl, later known as Yuri who stare through her sniper rifle scope toward a girl, starting to talk and explain that he is already dead, right now he is at afterlife world, and she is at war with the so-called angel, who is a little girl being spotted by Yuri through her sniper's scope. Furthermore, She wants the main chara to join the afterlife battlefront, the names of the battlefront changes every times, to take over the afterlife world because they don't want to "disappear".

There are a lot of mysteries of this afterlife world such as what happen if people disappear from this afterlife world; Why there is an angel guarding the after world, and why the main chara died.

Double Cards of the day

Sorry, I cannot make cards of the day section. I was playing Warcraft 3 DOTA with my friends till 4 AM LOL
Today cards is all about spell, 1 of them is a support spell while the other is a card that has ability to increase number of your normal summon without the side effect.
The first card is

Burden of The Mighty
Spell Card/Continuous
Effect:
Each face-up monster your opponent controls loses 100 ATK times its own level

Notes:
The other support card for deck that has low ATK such as machina or warrior deck, but the disadvantages of this card is it depends of the level of the monster to decrease in other world the lowest ATK a monster can be decreased is by 1000 ATK point which is Lv.10 monster.






The other card need to be reviewed is
Double Summon
Spell
Effect:
You can normal summon 1 additional time this turn. You can only gain the effect once per turn.

You can activate this card before your normal summon, but the effect can be activated anytime during the turn this card is activated. This is a good card for gemini or you need to use synchro summon as fast as possible.

Those 2 spells I mentioned might be helpful for your deck. please choose your card wisely.

Seikon no Qwaser

Anime need to be reviewed is Seikon no Qwaser. This anime can be gendered as Extra Ero and Ecchi Sci-Fi Adventures, the uncut version of this anime is not for children under 18 or whatever the legal ages of you, readers of this blogs, live at.

Seikon no Qwaser is an adventure of a boy, Alexander Sasha Hell, with ability to manipulate iron (In Seikon no Qwaser, People who control the ability to control an element is called Qwaser, but it need energy called Soma) to destroy evil organization that trying to find Virgin Mary's Icon, believed to holds great power because the soma produced by Virgin Mary's Icon is the purest Soma. During Sasha's adventures, the organization where Sasha work get information that the Icon is hidden in one of Catholic high school, St. Mihalov, in Japan so, he is sent to Japan to find the Icon and protected from the adepts, believed to be evil organization which want to owns the Icon.

In other hand, Mafuyu Oribe, adopted daughter of the late St. Mihalov's Dean, and Tomo Yamanobe, the daughter of late St. Mihalov's dean, found a boy with white hair fallen in a street so, they decided to bring him home and put him in a room to treat him. When mafuyu and tomo are arguing about what to do with the boy, the boy disappear from his room. Mafuyu then try to search for him, suddenly she is attacked by mysterious Qwaser, who has terrorized the area where they lived. Mafuyu then saved by the boy she tried to find, who is Alexander Sasha Hell. After the incident with Qwaser, Mafuyu figures out that Sasha trying to find who holds the Virgin Mary's Icon and somehow, the late St. Mihalov's Dean already knew about the icon and he hide it so, no one can ever find it.

I cannot tell you much about the anime more than the above summary because it would be too much spoiler. This is probably my worst review yet, but I hope you guys want to watch this anime just from that small description I gave.

The bad news after episodes 7 of Seikon no Qwaser,  no subber has subbed this anime title yet. Some subber which I can recommend all anime lovers to use CoalGuys, but they only sub the anime till ep 6 so far. the other constant subber is Chibi-Doki, but I questions their accuracy for the sub because according to me, it is not that accurate.
The other subber which I will try to look at is SubDesu, I have used their sub for a while for anime such as saki and kurogane no linebarrel. I will post my update on SubDesu Sub for Seikon no Qwaser in the future, so stay tuned to this blog.

Card of the day!!

As I have promised one of my blogs follower, Mafty, I will show you one of the anti-honest cards
Doomcaliber Knight
Dark/Lv.4/Fiend/Effect/ATK1900/DEF1800
Effect:
This card cannot be special summoned. When an effect monster's effect is activated you must trubute this card. Negate that effect's activation, and destroy the monster.

Important Ruling:
Doomcaliber knight cannot be activated if mask of restrict is on the field.

Doomcal effect still can be activated even when skill drain is on the field because doomcal is already outside of the field when it's effect activated.

Since doomcal effect can be activated during damage step, it can negate cards such as kuriboh or honest moreover, if doomcal already attack then kuriboh or honest is activated, doomcal still counted as conducting battle phase thus, the monster which doomcal attack still would be destroyed and damage calculation would be counted normally.

Doomcal effect can negate any monster whether in hand, graveyard, or removed. however, doomcal cannot negate monster which has continuous effect such as Jinzo and its already on the field.

Other ruling of doomcal can be found at yugioh wikia. Thanks yugioh wikia, for your complete info on a lot of cards.

Please stay tuned for another cards of the day section. Just for reminder, The picture of this card is copyrighted by Kazuki Takahasi and the card is published by konami. I only scan this card for the sake of personal use so, please don't use this card for commercial or other illegal stuff.

Katanagatari

So far, this is probably the most unique anime I have ever met yet. There is only 1 episodes for each months which can be annoying. Yet, the story line of Katanagari isn't developed quite fast, but each episodes reveal a new conflict and secrets of the 2 main character.

Started with the introduction of a samurai who use a technique that doesn't require sword. The samurai end a rebellion of  Japanese general(daimyo), who desired to keep 1 of 12 legendary sword, by killing the daimyo. it is  believed that if a person holds over all 12 swords then he/she can rule over the japan easily. The eyewitness of this execution by the unarmed samurai  is daughter of the rebelled daimyo.

Several years after the subduing of the rebellion and the new Japanese emperor take over Japan, the emperor order a girl to collect all 12 legendary swords. To accomplish this mission, the girl go to small island where it is believed the samurai who doesn't use sword and have subdued the rebellion lived in that island. To her shock, the samurai died couple of years ago. However, the girls hope to collect all 12 swords doesn't disappear because the samurai has successor. During this time, her enemy closing on her to kill her. Will she able to collect all 12 and how she know about the art of swordsmen which doesn't require swords to kill someone?

In summary, the anime has quite good storyline, but I don't know if it were worth the time of waiting especially until the newest episodes(ep 3) there is no good improvement in the story line. the battle scene also not that promising too. Well I must say, I cannot say I recommend to watch this anime because I don't really see a promising storyline except the curiosity of what secret behind the 12 swords.

Keep in touch for another anime review section.

Card of the day

Today I am going to review the most annoying cards in light deck.
Honest
 Light/Lv.4/Fairy/Effect Monster/ATK1100/DEF1900
 Effects::
During your main phase, you can return this card from the field to its owner's hand. During either player's damage step, when a face-up light monster you control battles, you can send this card from your hand to the graveyard to have that monster gain ATK equal to the ATK of the opponent's monster it is battling, until end phase.

Rulings:
Honest's effect is treated as quick effect.

Honest's effect doesn't target.

Sending Honest to graveyard is a cost so, it cannot be omitted.
The opponent's monster ATK boost using Honest's effect is the same as ATK when Honest's effect resolves.

The ATK boost gained by Honest's effect would not change until endphase.
If opponent activate card to increase/decrease ATK of a monster after Honest's effect is activated, by ruling of chain effect, the card which has effect to increase/decrease ATK of a monster would resolves first then 
Honest would resolves last. Thus, Honest effect will gain the current ATK of opponent's monster(if a card that increase monster ATK such as Kalut, Honest would still gain the total ATK of monster+kalut's effect) even if the ATK of your own monster would be decreased(Card such as shrink would only effect the original 

ATK of the monster applied by Honest)
ATK boost gained by Honest effect are cumulative.
    If you need clarification and other ruling, they can be found at yugioh wikia.

    Stay tuned for another card of the day section

    Card of The Day

    Sorry for the late card of the day section so, lets cut to the chase shall we?
    Today card needed to review is.........
    Compulsory Evacuation Device
    Trap
    Return 1 monster on the field to its owner's hand

    Check point:
    This card is a very useful card to stall, and get rid of annoying monster such as stardust, which can negate any card's effect that can destroy cards.

    In addition, this card might also help saves your monster from destruction  and/or removal of enemy's trap such as sakuretsu armor and dimensional prison.

    Notable effect of this card, it is targeting a monster on the field meaning monster such as tyrant dragon can negate this card's effect.

    Other ruling about specific monster can be found at yugioh wikia.

    Stay tuned for another cards check point.

    Gundam UC OVA part 1 Day of The Unicorn

    The Long waited and must-see anime for gundam mania, Gundam UC. Among all Bandai's release for this year, this might be their most successful release yet. I realized that this OVA has been released a while ago, but for those non-gundam mania, I will try to review this with non-bias point of view.

    The end of Common Era which also serves as the beginning of Universal Centuries, marked with terrorism attack on Prime Minister Laplace's spaceships. Apparently, one of the terrorist is the founder of Vist family and Vist Organization. Vist Organization holds power in Anaheim  Electronic, A Mecha-production factory(All of you non-gundam mania can assume it as a weapon factory) who had sells its products to Earth Federation and Zeon (both of them had been in war for quite long time). Apparently the reason why they have such power over both faction because of an item called Laplace's Box, believes to be able to end the never ending war between Earth Federation and Zeon.

    The main character, Banagher Link is a student over Anaheim Factory who lives alone since his mother died and doesn't know his father, felt presence that a girl, Audrey Burns the pro-antagonist in this OVA,  is in trouble.After he helped helped her escaped from life and death situation, Audrey told Banagher about a war which about to happen and she can stop this war by meeting the current head of Vist family thus, Banagher offer his help to get Audrey to Vist's Mansion. When both of them got to Vist Family's Mansion, Banagher got a feeling that he had been there before.

    Why is Banagher knows the Vist Mansion before? Who is Audrey? What is inside of the Laplace Box? To answer them, you guys need to watch all the Gundam UC OVA.

    Overall, this anime seems to have a promising complex story because the 1of 6 OVA started by a lot of mysteries which might be solved at the end of the long OVA. To be honest, in order to watch the Gundam UC all of you non-gundam fans might need to learn all the Universal Century gundam story because the main story of the Gundam UC is about how Anaheim Electronic fall. To learn this, just try to wiki gundam universal centuries and learn their time line. All of you, readers of this blog, need to pay attention why suddenly the manufacture of gundam and some of the mecha in Earth Federation shifted from Anaheim Electronic to SNRI(Strategic Naval Research Institute).

    I hope all of you watch this mecha genre animation. I hope all of my blogs reader like my review.
    See you all

    Gundam 00 Specials

    Today I will give review about this gundam 00 specials. For those who wonders what is this specials all about, I just need 1 word to explain it, RECAP!! I don't know what is in Bandai and Sunrise minds when they decided to create these 3 parts of specials. Lets cut to the chase shall we?

    Specials Part I
    Basically its a recap of all 25 episodes of Gundam 00 Season 1, they added some 30 seconds scene in some scene to makes thing clearer. The only things that added the specials is where the narrator, Reborn Almark, explain what in his thought at some scene(Ex. When Alejandro shoot Aeolia). I cannot gives you the recap about this specials because basically its already a recap.

    Special part II
    This is a recap of half of Gundam 00 Season 2, the specials ended with the destruction of the 1st Memento Mori. Like the 1st part of the 00 specials, there are added scene which helps to make things clearer and the thought of reborn almark over several scene, other than that specials it is just a recap. However, too bad they ended in just the destruction of the memento mori, it doesn't cover how celestial being ended up on earth.

    Special part III
    The last part of the 00 specials, also only a recap of the last half of 00 2nd season. To be honest with you all anime lovers, I am disappointed with the specials part III. Why?

    First, we need to wait for it to be release which is 3 months after the 2 specials released.

    Second, it's a recap.

    Third, this is what made me upset the most, it look like made in a hustle and it is so bad!!! the way they put stephanie's songs, Friends, in a battle when setsuna+saji vs. Louis and when tieria ambush reborn. Then put songs which has effect to increase excitement and battle in a scene where sumeragi asking for forgiveness from billy. then put sad songs when all people in celestial being has a moral boost and louis recovers from being death.

    Fourth, cutting battle scene between celestial being and innovado especially the battle scene between reborn gundam and 00 raiser, gundam vs gundam battles, which this series are lack of. The way they cut it off is worse than ever, suddenly 00 lose his legs or suddenly 00 lose its head.

    This is the worst possible specials bandai ever made yet.

    Overall, I would not recommend you, anime lovers, especially those who lives in a country with low bandwidth to download this specials specifically the part III. Since it is not worth the trouble and time!!! Sorry for being harsh and showing too much of emotion in my reviews, but watching this specials pissed me off.

    I hope all anime lovers stick for another anime review from me.

    Cards of The Day Section

    Time to reveal the cards that I have stored for today Check section.
    Mwahahaaha Trap card open!!
    Bottomless Trap Hole
    Trap Card
    Effect:
    When your opponent summons a monster(s) with 1500 or more ATK, destroy and remove from play the monster(s)

    Scope Check:

    Recently, I learned that when monsters special summons using cards effect such as rescue cat and Return from Different Dimension then got bottomless by your opponent, all of those monster special summoned by the cards effects is removed from play.

    Another check point, monster effect such as monarch's set(Caius, Raiza, Mobius) get priority to activate their effect when they hit fields. So, keep in mind that this trap doesn't negate summon. However, Continuous Card effect such as Black Whirlwind cannot gain its effect because the monster is not successfully summoned.

    In addition, monster that has effect to gain attack point when it hits fields such as xx-saber Garsem still counted as 1600 ATK points even the original printed ATK is 1400 so, bottomless can still be activated.

    Hopefully this knowledge helps you on your dueling.
    See U at the next cards of the day section!!

    To Aru Kagaku No Railgun

    Do you, anime lovers, remember about To Aru Majutsu No Index? To Aru Kagaku No Railgun is about one of the character in Index, Misaka Mikoto one of the Lv. 5 psychics in Academy City.

    After I watched several early episodes of this anime, I thought this anime is a stand alone episodes, meaning that each episodes is not connected to others, because during the first 3 episodes, Misaki and her friends only defeat another psychics who are doing menace.

    However,the story starts to get together when Misaki's partner mentions how the database of the level and power psychics user in Academy City doesn't match with the face and one of the new character in Railgun starts to mention one of the urban legend in Academy City, Level Upper, an item which is believed to increase psychics power when it is used.

    The story of Railgun starting to pick up its phase when all psychics user who had used the level upper becomes unconscious. Who is behind all of this events? Why the culprit create the Level Upper? To answer these questions you need to watch this anime yourselves.

    To watch this anime, you need to watch Index first to pick up all the background story and some of the characters in Railgun. In addition, I think this anime's story will somehow cross its path with Index's storyline since the way I view it, all the episodes in this anime is connected to one another thus, it might also have connection to Index.

    If you decided to pickup this anime, you can use mazui subs because they are the fastest and stable subber who covers all railgun series so far.

    See you all in another anime review, Otaku Unite!!

    Cards of the day

    Check! Check! Check! Check cards of the day section!!
    Today I am going to check.... a support cards that will help decks that use one specific type of monster. That cards is.....
    Solidarity
    Spell Card/Continuous
    Effect:
    If you have only 1 original(printed) Type of monster in your graveyard, face-up monsters you control with the same type gain 800 ATK.

    Notable check point:
    For those who wondered "What does the words printed mean?", the word printed means the type of the monster before it is changed by a card effect such as zombie world, which changes all monster types both in fields and graveyard to zombie, thus the effect of solidarity would be negated.
    For example, before your activation of zombie world, all cards in your graveyards is machine. After zombie world activated, all cards on your graveyard would be changed to zombie. if solidarity on the field, it would only boost machine type monster since none of the monster on the field is machine, then it would not boost any monster you have on the fields.

    If you have more than 1 monster type on the field the effect of solidarity would be negated, but the cards would remain on the field.

    In addition, this cards rulings mentioned when monsters' type on your side of the fields is changed by effect of DNA surgery, continuous trap cards which change cards type to specific type, to match the type of monster on your graveyard it will gain the solidarity effect. Since solidarity only mentioned monster which in graveyards. 

    Hopefully this cards of the day section help you to make your deck stronger.

    Summer Wars

    Wohooo... it is time to review an anime. This time I'm going to discuss an anime movie called "Summer Wars". For all of you who live in a country with low bandwidth might wonder whether it is worth the time waiting to download this anime, thus I hope after you read my article about Summer Wars you readers might watch this title.

    The story start with introduction to the virtual world called OZ, which look similar to Digital worlds from old anime Digimon combined with the widely known MMO life simulation in US, The Second Life; e-bay, and many other feature in real world. OZ is widely used by people around the world even company, organization, and government use it for their activities such as business transaction, paying bills, controlling water pressure, even military stuff. For some of the readers who wonders about why the director start it with the intro about OZ instead go to the main chara or story? Well, Summer Wars story has a lot of connection to the OZ.

    One of the main character of Summer wars is Kenji, a high school student who is very good at math,but bad with girls. The story of the male character started with he and his friends working for OZ through virtual world using their avatar in OZ, they are working part time for OZ as their system maintenance for summer using their school club room as their workplace, then suddenly their senior, who is the most beautiful girl in their high school and the other main character in this story named Natsuki, come into the room offers one of them part time jobs which is to follow her to go to visit her grandmother in country side for Natsuki's grandmother's Birthday . Kenji then accept Natsuki's offer to go with her to Natsuki's grandmother house without knowing the details of his jobs.

    During Kenji visits to the Natsuki's grandmother, he found out that his senior is descendant of samurai clan who had served one of the highly known japans' general during the Japan's civil war and Natsuki's grandmother has a lot of influential in Japan's Government and Business. After Kenji meet with his senior's grandmother, he finally knows that his part time jobs is to pretends become Natsuki's boyfriend during the whole trips.

    That night after Kenji arrives at Natsuki's grandmother house, our main character receives an e-mail send to his OZ account by a mysterious sender, it contains bunch of numbers. Since he is bored, he decided to solve what is the meaning behind the number, when he found out the answer, he send the answer back to the sender of this mysterious e-mail. However, this naive boy hasn't realized that the mail he just sent would end up making disaster to the world because apparently the one who send him the mysterious e-mail is an A.I. which is built to hack anything in its way. Furthermore, The A.I. wants to destroy human worlds through OZ, now its up to Kenji and Natsuki's whole family helping him to stop this berserk A.I.

    Overall, the story is similar to Digimon, but it has more drama twist on it. I would highly recommend this movie to all of you who likes family drama and adventure with a touch of romance and futuristic sci-fi. For anime lovers, I don't hold yourselves, you've got to watch this anime since you won't want to miss this title.

    P.S. for subs you can use [Zero Raws-QTS] because it had been cleaned from the korean subs and their english subs is good.

    Cards of The Day!

    Beginning of a new day also means a new cards to review!!! time to CHECK!!
    Today cards of the day is........
    X-Saber Airbellum
    Earth/Lv. 3/Beast/Tuner/Effect Monster/ATK1600/DEF200
    Effect:
    When this card inflict battle damage to your opponent by a direct attack, discard 1 random card from your opponent's hand.

    CHECK section:
    One of the good Lv 3 tuner that works like a charm for any synchro deck especially for x-saber deck(duh, its name is x-saber and it is one of the main family of the x-saber).

    Since this card is a beast therefore it will works with a beast deck because you can use the rescue kitty to special summoned 2 of airbellum and direct attack your opponent which will make them discard 2 cards in his/her hands. During the end phase when airbellum is destroyed because of kitty's effect, you can chain it with green or yellow baboon effect and giving your side of the fields a guardian with high ATK monster.

    You can also treat X-Saber deck as a beast deck since the current x-saber cards which already out in TCG already consist several other beast monster besides Airbellum. Instead of summoning 2 airbellum you can special summon other beast cards such as XX-Saber Garsem to attack your opponents, then during main phase 2, before the effect of rescue kitty kicks in, you can synchro summon Lv.6 synchro monster in your extra deck.

    The main disadvantage of this card is on its effect. Airbellum's effect require a direct attack to make your opponents discards card from their hands. Depends on what deck you run, this cards might become effective cards to ripped away your opponents hand or just a normal tuner.

    That's all guys, for the cards of the day section! tune up for another cards of the day.
    Have fun out there and keep dueling!

    Code Geass OVA

    For those people who wonder what is the OVA of the Code Geass, titled Code Geass: Zero Requiem, all about? Ill do a review for this anime title.

    The Code Geass OVA is only a recap of the Code Geass R2 overall, but with a little bit touch of C.C. and each chara voice as a narrator who will explain the events. The OVA starts with the scene of lelouch taking over the britania as a 99th Britania King, then the story goes back to the episode 1 of the Code Geass R2 with a little bit extra how Lelouch memories was erased.The story then will moves forward to how zero saves the rest of the black knight, zero exiled, and battle in china, shirley killed(for this part, the seiyuu of shirley would become the narrator who will explain how shirley feel for lelouch), the rest of the OVA goes on like the normal Code Geass R2 normal plot.

    Overall, for those people who fans about Code Geass I recommend to watch it for the sake of remembering one of the greatest anime ever created, but unfortunately there is no subs for the special edition yet because most of the words had already been translated in Code Geass series. While for those people who haven't watch this anime, the OVA can become a starter which will forced you to watch both Code Geass season 1 and season 2.

    I hope my reviews will help motivate people to watch this anime series. See you next time, and have fun out there.

    Cards of the day.

    New day mean new card of the day!
    Let me see what cards should I review today, ah I know!!

    Necroface
    Dark/Lv. 4/Zombie/Monster Effect/ATK1200/DEF1800
    Effect:
    When this card is normal summoned, shuffle all removed from play cards into their owner's decks. This card gains 100 ATK for each of those cards. When this card is removed from play, both players remove from play the top 5 cards of their deck.

    Necroface, its a wild cards for Dark, Dimensional monarch(D Monarch), and removal deck. For dark which utilize DAD(Dark Armed Dragon), this deck might actually help when you summon this card properly because you can get back all the dark monster which you used up by DAD effect, The Beginning of The End, and Allure of Darkness.

    This cards also help D monarch and removal deck the same way as Dark deck, which is to get back all of those monsters especially monarchs which are removed because of cards like dimensional fissure and macro cosmos, since D monarch and removal deck always has cards like D fissure and macro cosmos, the Necroface become a double edge sword which might end up kill yourself because of the second effect (When this card is removed from play, both players remove from play the top 5 cards of their deck) because you might not know what is end up in your removed from game field. The other good things about this cards, it can be used as a finisher in late game since it gains ATK based on cards in both players which is returned to their deck.

    That is all for the cards of the day section.

    Kimi ni Todoke - Anime reviews

    For some people who already know this title, I know it sounds so unmanly. However, there might be girls who read my blogs so, I will gives some review about it.
    Kimi ni Todoke is an anime with roman-drama genre. This anime featuring of a high school females students who is nicked name as sadako (yes, its the name of ghost from Japanese infamous horor movies "The Ring"), this young girl never had any close friends to rely on.

    Until one day a boy who is famous in her high school starting to approach her and show her that she can make friends. She starts to make a real friends, go out with her friends for the first time, etc. Finally she realized that she is in love with the boy who started all of her friendships. What she will do about this feelings?

    Over all, I feel that kimi ni todoke is an anime unlike a roman-drama like kanon and toradora, those 2 titles is shonen roman-drama, but kimi ni todoke is a bishoujo roman-drama the drawing also is a bishoujo style. Therefore for those girls out there who read this blog, this is a good anime to watch. For guys, I only can gives you recommendation to watch this anime if you in the mood for serious roman-drama because please don't expect cute chara drawing and sometimes a humorous part which is so silly, this anime doesn't have it.

    Hopefully, I didn't give to much spoilers about this anime title, and I'm sorry if the reviews isn't that professionals since this is my first anime reviews. I hope you guys who read this blogs can gives me some knowledge what to do.

    Thank you and have some fun out there!

    P.S.: For those people who want to watch this anime with english subs, I can recommend you using these 2: eclipse, for people who has patience to wait for their subs, or use the FMS-SunBerries, for people who is impatience to get anime with english subs.

    First Blog post

    Wohoo.. I'm starting this blog today.
    Sorry about this ugly layout, but Ill try to fix it soon.
    In addition, I also want to apologize if I cannot update every day since I'm kinda busy everyday.
    Okay lets get started of my first card of the day which I received TODAY wohoo!!!

    Thunder King Rai-Oh
    Lv. 4/Light/Thunder/Effect Monster/ATK1900/DEF800
    Effect:
    Neither player can add cards from their deck to their hand except by drawing them. You can send this face-up card to the graveyard to negate the special summon of 1 of your opponent monsters, and destroy it.

    Notes about this card:
    This card is quite powerful, but has its side effect. for example sangan effect would be negated by this card while its on the field.
    Rai-Oh works like a solemn judgement, so it can negate stardust. In addition, stardust effect won't be activated since stardust never actually hit the field.(it also works the same way against monsters that need to hit field first to gain its effect such as Gorz(another cards which I will discuss in the future)).
    Also, the effect of cards such as gold sarcophagus and Different Dimension Capsule will still work since the cards which later received is not from your deck, but from the removed from game piles.
    FYI, Rai-Oh effect does not target so, those cards like tyrant dragon being special summoned from graveyard still can be negated.

    Thunder King Rai-Oh is a good cards against anti-meta deck and synchro deck, which relies on special summoning to win the game, combined with DoomCal and Oppress to create trouble in the field. However, you also need to be extra careful if both DoomCal and Rai-OH is on the field because DoomCal effect is a MUST so, do not try to tribute Rai-Oh to negate special summon of a monster while doomcal is on the field or the effect of Rai-Oh would be negated by DoomCal and you might lose 2 of your best monster from that stupid mistakes!

    That is all for the cards of the day section. The ruling also about this cards also can be found in yugioh.wikia. Please visit and support their sites for more info about cards ruling. Btw, the cards scan images is scan from my PC, but the pictures of the cards is copyrighted by Kazuki Takahasi and Konami, please don't use my cards scan images for any inappropriate stuff such as using it to sell your own cards, this is for personal use only(such as collection of cards images).
