I've been watching a fair bit of anime lately. As such, I thought that I should share what I've learned about it. Everything here is still unlicensed, so you can find it floating around in the usual places.

Darker Than Black - Darker than Black is a near-future sci-fi anime. The premise of the world is that there are people who have special powers (such as teleportation, body changing, etc). People with such powers are called "Contractors" due to the fact that, in order to use their powers they must perform some task in order to "pay for" their power. One character from the first episode must place small stones in a perfect grid, for example. So far, 10 episodes have been released and I highly recomend it.

Kirarin Revolution - This show may be the most saccharine show I've ever seen. That said, every episode so far has made me laugh from beginning to end. This show falls into the romantic comedy/drama category. The show is still releasing new episodes in Japan (they're up to 60), but a group has only started subtitling them lately.

Shinigami no Ballad - Shinigami no Ballad seems to be a series of unrelated episodes aside from the primary character: a reaper named Momo. Each episode revolves around someone's death and how it affects the people around them. The reaper, aside from her primary task, attempts to give the people left behind hope by occasionally poking at them and being slightly cryptic. I've only watched 2 episodes (of the 6 that were made), but I will probably watch the rest.


That's it for now, I've started watching a few other series, but haven't made it far enough to make a real judgement yet. To be continued, I suppose.
