Blue Bishonen Hell.

OK.
So as of late I have been looking out for anime that I have not watched and Normally would not watch. So I have been watching Bishonen and Shojin... And so far my Manpoints are doing alright.

The simple reason being that I have been aiming at FUNNY Bishonen. (So Basically Reverse Harem Anime) My Two Biggest Finds so far have been Fruits Basket. (I think i already did a piece on it) The Second Being Oron High School Host Club. (Really bad Title)

But it could be the funnest thing i have seen in a long long time.

First think you need to know is that if you are a Flamingly Strait man, Don't watch this. Your just going to hurt yourself and annoy the shit out of any one else around you.

Because there are ALLOT of gay jokes in this show. But not in the "I'm going to laugh at his because he's gay" Way in the... They are making fun of people who do that way.

... Wait wait. I think i need to explain something here.

What the crap is a host club?
Well you ever seen those bars were you pay for a young attractive female to sit down and have polite conversation with you?... ... No hu? Well they do exist, there are even some in the United States.

A Host club is the Female Equivalent. Women come in and pay to have young men entertain them with polite conversation and... maybe a little flirting.
And yes they really exist in Japan. Following the MJIW principle. (Man... Japan is Weird)

Ya so the show is great, it just.... Vary hard on your reserve Man Points. Not quite as bad a as... Playing The YuGiOh Card Game. But harder then playing D&D.
And no wear near as Hard as Watching or liking Twilight. ~Shutter~

If your a female this is going to be much easier to watch for you. Because this thing is FULL of ManService.. (It's like FanService, Only... You know for Chicks) Just know there is ALLOT of bare chested guys..... And not even in the Bleach Standard. In the... ... Well Pretty Boy Underwear Standard.


The Saving grace of this show is the female lead, Who is like many Main Characters the only sane.... Women in the Room? Well not really just just say that she is just as annoyed at the weird stuff in the show as the rest of us.

The Show Really is Side Splittingly Funny, And latter on it can actually be very Sweet.
_
There are some problems with it. Out of the 26 Episodes about... 4 of them are really just not that funny, not really because of any fault of the show, but i think some of the jokes missed there marks.
And some times it just seams like they... Well forgot to put jokes into the show for a episode or something. The Sweet / Romance parts... Seam a little odd. There done quite well but they just seam out of place in the show after so much funny stuff going on.

Now that being said, I really think they could have taken the time they spent on the 4 not so funny episodes and really done a good job with the romance in the show, Because ya. like 6 episodes of romance mixed in with 26 episodes of PURE FUNNY WIN, would have been fine with me.

Even my Partners in Crime.. A.K.A. My Friends/Evil Minions. Like it, and one of them is VERY hard to please with this kind of "Girlie" (Hurts me to even wright that word I think it's so stupid to call something girly just because it has romance in it) Show..



So if you like Funny stuff and are not a retard-man.
Or if you have NO Y-chromazone.
You should love this show.

If you don't.

You may never laugh again. And really you don't deserve to.

Fruits Basket

Before you say anything that is not misspelled.

I just got throw watching the anime Adaptation of the Manga Fruits Basket.
Now after i was done i went out and read the Manga.

OK so my take on the anime was as follows.

#1. The Anime itself was Hilarious after you got past the first episode or two. And even though the show is basically a romance / Drama show, it does a very good job of throwing some side splitters in there on a pretty regular basis.

#2. At 26 episodes it is in about the right length for a good Anime, but to be honest i think this one could have been a little longer. At the end it just felt incomplete. But to be fair it was also left very open to the idle of another season being made. (At this point don't hold your breath)

#3. It was a little disappointing at the end because. Well the thing is in something that was meant to be a romance anime, i really like to see a official couple at the end of a anime. But that being said, i think i might be because. Well it really isn't as much a romance anime as it is a anime about how one loving caring person can touch the lives of every one around them.

#4. The Main Character in the Anime is a Very Loving caring person who constantly keeps up a cheerful facade to keep from worrying every one around her, but the anime is also about how that's not health and is really unfair to the people around you.

So in all.
I liked the anime and am glad i watched it... Well that was until i went and read the manga, now i am a little disappointed in the anime.

The manga was just more complete, And had not just one but many couples by the end of the story. Also allot of the characters were just better done in the Manga, and some good characters were just completely left out of the Anime.

So wile i would say, Ya go ahead and watch it, if you like that kind of anime. (I normally don't but this was done well enough that i enjoyed watching it) Then give the show a try.
