2 more shows finished

just finished watching kannagi and akane-iro ni somaru saka (akasaka)..allow me to summarise them individually (might contain spoilers!)

kannagi is about this guy, Jin, who meets this lady while he was younger (im not sure if he regarded her as a shrine maiden or a goddess at that time). in the present time frame, he's a student in his school's art club, and when his friend gave him a piece of sacred wood, he decided to carve out the lady he saw..who later came alive and started entering his life. the whole show started off as a light-hearted comedy. i felt that the pace of the show was just right..and with all the parodies, jabs and puns..the show still maintains its hmm..cheerfulness..even after taking on a more serious tone when the show progressed. the ending was a bit ambiguous though (in the sense between Nagi and Jin)..but i felt that it was quite cruel towards tsugumi..who was supporting Jin all the while but yet had to endure such a painful ending (watch the show to know more..im lazy to spoil/type)..let's hope there will be a season 2 for this sometime in the future

akasaka is a typical harem romance comedy show, depicting the love life of the protagonist, junichi. the whole show started with yuuhi getting picked up by some gangsters, and junichi coming in to save her..this started the initial chemistry between the 2 of them..but when yuuhi offered to thank him..he just walked away acting cool and stuff..until he reached home and felt like an idiot for not even asking for her name (hahaha i think this case is very applicable to real life situations)..the next day..yuuhi was transferred from another school into junichi's school..and erh..coincidentally (if not there won't be any story) into junichi's class..they were then able to introduce themselves to each other properly..but..as with most shows of this genre..the 2nd day..junichi did something stupid which caused yuuhi to have a murderous intent towards him..that night..yuuhi came to his house..and it happened that actually both their fathers have agreed to let them wed! so subsequently we see the development of all the female cast related in junichi..and how they, in one way or another, fell for him. the ending wasn't what i really expected though..and there were some unanswered questions regarding minato's background..but nevertheless..it was a nice show! esp. when ren-ren acting all jealous..hahaha
