Thought Experiment: Tensai Shoujo Hero

That's right, it's "Tensai Shoujo Hero"!

In romanization that is, "Terrible-Strength Girl Hero"

There's no such thing in anime though. As Chansu says in his One Punch Man review, we kind of root against a hero who has everything easy and shows no effort to win. Though "One Punch Man" is more of a Millenial generation Shounen Hero because he's sarcastic about all of the enemies he beats by using no emotional attachment to them. The whole anime game is changing so...

There are already some old anime like Blood+, Birdy, Haruhi, FLCL, Evangelion, Gundam, and maybe Gintama where there are strong and terrifying female characters that kick ass and pose formidable threats to the main characters, if they are not already. That's how formidable they are in the anime world that there are so few of them starring in their own anime and in the ones that they only co-star they always manage to hurt the main character. If they didn't cartoonize those blows, the main character guy would usually sure die, such as Gintama or FLCL where Ginoki takes ninja knives to the head and FLCL where the boy takes guitars to the face so that he can finally transform again.

It's not a new thing out there. Maybe it causes guys and guy otaku some anxiety to want more anime like it but it shouldn't because they're anime and the real world is much different. It would cause thousands of tons of anxiety for a real life human man to undergo such anxiety! (LOL) So it's best that these kinds of themes are seen more in anime than in real life, right?

That's no cause for otaku to fear. We're already pretty nerdy people who deal with daily hassles already. For those of us who like shounen anime, we maybe already love the "Tensai Shoujo Hero"!

Shounen Hero Diaries pt 5: Speculation

That was so long ago, maybe before summer vacation. Those things really make you think. So I trained as hard as I could and entered a battle royal run by a self-proclaimed, "Circus-Villainy Act" that goes by the name, "Dissent". It seemed like some kind of joke and a fun summer wasted. Most of all of the candidates at the arena were either muscular golems or boyish kids my age, all guys.

They sneered at me and leered at me. The boys sneered and the muscle-heads kept looking at me funny like their necks were loose. I waved at them all.

Before the event opened we all had to go into a virtual sim and get our "specs" read. As soon as I put on the thing, I was in a fight with an alien. So I just used the buster whatever that "The Kiran" taught me and it was over... And then I was kicked out of the tournament, by the manager-dude.

"We can't have people here, like you, that can hurt my feelings" The manager said.

He was this really old guy, I think his name was Mr. Rane. But he gave me a copy of my specs data... and cried profusely.

Shonen Hero Diaries pt 2: The Timid Chimera

*   *   *   *   *   *   *   *

So, at first, I was scared so I buried the guy on the playground and then turned around to run back home... I sensed that, "The Kiran", could fix everything. As I was turning to run back home, there was this big hand on my shoulder.

"I'll handle that!"

There was an old guy with a blonde mustache and a crew cut who seemed to pop out of nowhere.

"But wait, punch my arm!", The man exclaimed.

So, without thinking I punched his fist, right on the knuckles, and a bright orange light appeared at impact, knocking the man into a slide. That ended up turning the whole thing into dust. I had to run over to him to see if he was OK. He was lying on his back.

"Give.. me a.. high five" The guy said.

So I bent down and I high fived him. He smiled at me happily.

"Go find, the Timid Chimera" He whispered.

"Who?"

"..." The man was silent, he passed out because his head tilted over and touched the ground softly.

...And there was an eerie silence, unlike any other.

I was alone again.

Recommendation: Kotoura-San

Winter Season Anime Recommendation

Kotoura-San

First of all, this is an anime recommendation of a new winter season anime. So I can't give you guys any more spoilers than what's in the first episode and I can't review it because it's not finished. The best way to watch new anime though is to go to www.crunchyroll.com where you can watch new anime just as long as you watch small commercials too.

This anime is one of the best of the new season, if you're looking for a slice of life, school days, slight fantasy, love story. We know the type, there's Clannad, Toradora, Angel Beats, etc. This one seems more like Clannad to me though.

The main character is a girl named Kotoura who was born with the ability to hear what other people are thinking. She also has a bad habit of blurting out whatever she learns about another person. The combination of her ability and bad habit have made her into a social outcast. Her family had even disowned her, with the exception of her grandpa who she lives with.

 That's until she heard the wrong guys thoughts. Actually, she was able to see what he was thinking about her. The picture above is actually one of Manabe's thoughts. Manabe is his name.

 Though surprised by his perverted thoughts, she was shocked that he had no feelings of prejudice or hate toward her. In fact most of his nonperverted thoughts are really positive and happy.

 Can they really get along with each other? Will they fall in love?

Watch Kotoura-san to find out! I highly recommend it as a new winter season anime!

:::Tsundere Spotlight:::

Hi everyone! This TSL goes to Kirino from my favorite anime this season (so far): Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai! ("My Little Sister Can't Be This Cute!")

This star tsundere has become my favorite type of character: An otaku tsundere imouto! To me, nothing really makes me want to say "Kawaii!" any more than watching Kirino in this anime...

I seem to have a little sister moe such as Mika from Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu,



Shiori from Midori no Hibi,

and even Sunohara Mei from Clannad...



She is drawn with amazing art and has a splendid voice actor: Ayana Taketatsu! If you don't know who she is (and I didn't either until recently) she is voicing many animes this season such as MM! and The World God Only Knows! She voices Mio in MM! and the first "target," Ayumi, in T.W.G.O.K.

She possesses a very sweet personality although she is sometimes tsuntsun of course =P. She takes the shy role of a tsundere (as opposed to a change over time that is mentioned in *cough* Lucky Star's "Lucky Channel" Episode 10 *cough* which you can find right here, uploaded by me of course *cough* which was in my Top 5 Moe Girls Post--*death*)

Here's some snap-shots of her tsun-dere sides:

Tsun-:



-Dere:



Kirino is a girl who has a secret otaku hobby. So in this anime she searches for her true self--stripping away her pride and being true to her hobbies as an otaku. She is in love with anime and (ironically) little sister eroge, but for innocent and pure reasons--she just finds them really cute! I can relate... being a fan of "imouto" characters and all...

Her relationship with her brother is dramatically improved as she opens up to him and forms a tight sibling bond.

As she struggles to find friends with similar hobbies she battles the obstacles that come her way.

What will her parents think if they find out about her secret hobby? Will she be able to keep it a secret from them forever? And what will become of her old friends as she searches for new ones? You're going to have to catch Kirino in Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai! to find out! =P

That's all for today,
Thanks for reading the first installment of "Tsundere Spotlight!" ^^

Stay tuned for more,
:::Deretsun:::

A parting picture for your troubles =P:
