CyanideBlizzard's Nyan Koi! Tv Review

Rated: 7

Nyan Koi! isn't going to win any awards, nor is it going to convert someone over to harem series if they weren't interested before. It has it's own share of fan service scenes, and typical cliche plot lines. Yet, within all of this we're greeted with an interesting concept and characters that develop within the twelve episodes we're given. Nyan Koi! would be what I would describe as a guilty pleasure through and through. It's nothing you'll remember several weeks down the road for it's amazing characters and great plot development, but if it fits the bill it will most likely be a series that you'll end up revisiting at one point or another.

CyanideBlizzard's Parasite Eve Game Review

Rated: 9

There is a reason why Parasite Eve is still regarding as the best game in the series, both in terms of sales as well as by fans. Despite how old it is, it is still an incredibly strong title that has been lovingly crafted and brilliantly executed. While not a flawless gem, it is a shining example of a way to be adventurous in a genre like RPGs and create a crafty, adult title.

It's a title that I always recommend to those that don't mind a games age and want a good Role Playing Game and it isn't difficult to see why. It's a remnant of an era that has come and gone, and is a shining example of pushing boundaries and standards forward. Great characters, an engaging story and wonderful gameplay.

CyanideBlizzard's Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu Tv Review

Rated: 9

Baka To Test was already a personal favorite of mine, but Season 2 reminded me of the fact that it's not simply about personal tastes, it's also about a series that's handled properly by the studio and by the voice actors that can really take a series beyond the norm. If there was ever a perfect example of how to improve a show, Baka To Test is exactly that. The comedy is funnier, the characters have much more depth and overall it's a significant improvement.

If this is an example of things to come, I can only wait for Baka to Test season 3, if there is one.

    Hi, um I was wondering, if I have a waller, and find a blank wallpaper and put some changes on it (from google), will it be ok? Link: http://smashmaterials.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/free-valentine-039-s-day-lover-039-s-day-wallpaper_1920x1200_89887.jpg

    I heard you have a male harem. This is disturbing.

    By the way I like what you've done with your page.

    Quote: I'm glad you've been able to slack off and relax for a bit. I've been trying to do so more lately, but unfortunately I need to get caught up with everything so I'm prepared for when February rolls around.

    Yeah, it's a lot more dutiful than I've been in previous years, but that's also because my situation is slightly different and I want to make sure I can manage time for everything. Along with the inclusion of more things to my schedule, I need to re-plan things so I can be more balanced once again. I'm really glad to hear that you are, although the part about MU being dead is rather sad to hear.

    Sure, just let me know which review you'd like to me to take a look at and I'll be sure to do so! As for what I want to write, there are several series I wouldn't mind making a review for. Most of them are series from early 2000s, because I really enjoyed revisiting shows i had watched and seeing if my views and thoughts still hold up to them. However, since a lot of my older collections are back at home, I'm not too sure what I'll do about it. Although there are four shows I know off the top of my head that I'd really like to write a review for, but it's all about timing xD. Oooh, surprises!

    I've actually had no issues with AP when I've been on it lately. Although, my time on it has been rather minimal and I usually don't browse the gallery, so I couldn't say in terms of those aspects.

    I'm going to reply for now because I don't want to get another game addiction which will slow things down :P

    Ah, may I ask is it because you're faraway from home? Ha ha, you certainly need to, I haven't seen you around the shout box for ages XD. Indeed, a great shame with MU, one filesharing site down, it drags a whole lot more with it. I'm looking for some good site to reupload my files, for the time being, Wupload seems to be a good place, but it's only a matter of time before it's taken down too. After that, who knows, back to the old torrents. But that's another story, let's leave it at that.

    Well, there's the Gothic trio including Gosick, Dantalian and KamiMemo, that makes three Gothic lolis, and if you don't mind, can you take a look at Catherine, Sora no Woto and Yuruyuri, they're a bit lonely though. But first yeah, the recent one, that's a lot, so take your time. Yeah, early 2000s series have much more of an impact than the series now, being more original and appeal. I'm guessing those 4 shows from the early 2000s are Gungrave, Kino, Last Exile, and Cowboy. Gungrave was indeed great, for an anime adapted from a hardcore shooting game, it turned out much more excellent than the rest. I always like the part when they scream BURAAAAAANNNNDDDOOOOOOONNNNN!

    For the 50s, one would be the 51 I mentioned earlier, 2 movies (there are 3 I'm planning to put), but that depends on how the current season ends. I actually wanted to put Penguin on it but since there are too many shows I want to be done soon so it was put on hold. AP has been a lot slower on my side lately, it even took 3 hours straight to upload =/

    Quote: Anytime Weskalia! I was hoping to get a chance to comment on that one sooner, but I'm glad I was able to then. As for the newest review, I'll try to get that done tonight! Oooh, a CLAMP anime and a game huh?

    Oh! By all means, I completely understand that. I apologize if my question was slightly offensive. I was just curious since I haven't actually gotten a chance to watch either of the three "Girls with Guns" series that BeeTrain has produced. As for the video game one, it's actually an earlier effort from them, Arc the Lad. It was the first show that actually emotionally moved me and it's been sometime since I last viewed it, so I'd really like to get around to it.

    : 3 Sorry about the length of this post! However, I did want to thank you. You gave me two great ideas for my next reviews, so hopefully I can get started on watching them immediately!

    I don't see that offensive at all, mine was way more. I can see why you didn't enjoy those because of the major pacing problems they have. Arc the Lad, I haven't seen it, but if it's going to be a co-review then just let me know. Great, 2 new ideas, I salute to your excellence.

    Quote by CyanideBlizzard Holy cow.

    Fate/Prototype.

    That's all I have to say. Although I believe I'm getting on that bandwagon a little too late.

    Yeah , it was the earlier state of Type-Moon's version of Fate - but the project was scrapped and the characters and plot were replaced with what we know today.
    Still - I prefer Saber and Emiya Shirou :P

    Quote by Kan-tastic Firefly told me you were nice, but I think you'd make a good member of the Gestapo.....

    Um...what?

    I'm not sure what warranted this completely unethical comment, or why it was posted.

    I simply do my job to the best of my ability, and as such I have to also make sure members abide by the rules.

    The fact that you've chosen to make such an ignorant, hate-driven comment after the duration of time since the shoutbox incident (which is what I assume this is about), then I can only attest that you are nothing more than a child.

    First warning for harassment

    You're welcome to continue to un-necessary name calling if you'd like, or you can be an adult and move on from the situation like I have. The choice is yours.

    I was just going to say this was merely an innocent ribbing, but your own words have soured my mood severely.....

    Quote: However, I'm really curious as to your thoughts upon the other two "Girls with Guns" entries from Bee-Train. Perhaps we could work out a deal, if you happen to cover one of them, I'll cover my favorite video game adaption that they did. How's that sound? ; D

    Thanks for stopping by and taking a look at my Noir reviews, it was lonely XD. Yeah, it was a breath of fresh air to see your detailed feedback, there's still some I'd like to see though (if you have time). I just wrote another review today (yes, another BT), with this, only 2 more to finish the 40s. Next I'm going to write a Clamp anime and a game.

    I don't know about that, I have no intention to write about the other 2, Noir and Madlax are my best faves, but I don't intend to write another because of personal reason. Favorite video game? Is it one of the .hack series? I don't play or watch those so I can't tell. But if you're planning on co-review like Distortion then I'm gladly to help.

    Quote by CyanideBlizzardI have to say, I was expecting a good score, but I was also a bit surprised on just how well the game held up. Although, there has yet to be a game that Level 5 has released that I have been disappointed in.


    I had some pretty high expectations for the game based on screenshots, sneak peeks of gameplay videos, and the DS game. There are in fact numerous things that annoy me about the game, but the overall presentation and attention to detail make them seem petty and minor. I really appreciate the level of craft that Level 5 puts in their games, and this makes me pretty excited for some of their 3DS releases this year (Layton vs Wright and Time Travelers).

    Quote by CyanideBlizzardAs for Vesperia, whenever you do get a chance to I will be looking forward to it. It actually reminds me that I need to finish the game sometime, or rather start over since it's been two years or so since I last played.


    Vesperia is a pretty fun game. It's a pretty typical Tales game, but I am a fan of Tales games so this is A-Okay with me. I like that Yuri is an older, more mature protagonist as it is increasingly hard for me to relate to sheltered teenaged boys that usually run with the Tales hero role. But at least in Xillia I can choose a female lead! Which I will probably start up next week, as I've cleared a lot of the Ninokuni postgame content already. ;)
