Angel Beats! Episode 1 - Where's the Loli's?

Impressions:

I didn't really set my expectations too high going into this show. I watched one trailer for it and thought it looked pretty good. I also heard it's by famed Key writer Jun Maeda, that's about it. I sat down with the raw because I wanted to check out it out early to get a preview of whether it might live up to the hype the internet has given it or not. The sub luckily came out pretty fast though, so I didn't have to strain my brain to decipher what little I knew in Japanese.

Futagami Double - Manga About Doubles

Short Summary: Futagami Sousuke, 14 years old, is a normal student, wishing to live a normal life. But everything changes the day he sees a doppelganger of himself in his house. Since then, the girl he has a crush on, Amane, will introduce him to another side of his world he had no idea about, and there won't be anymore of the dear peaceful days for Futagami.

Introduction: This is a one-shot manga, which I think is that they only release one chapter as a prototype for a possible release of an actual series; or is just a manga that is one chapter. So hopefully this turns out into an actual series because I read it and thought it was good. I stumbled upon this after looking of the what other works the illustrator of Mayoi Neko Overrun! did since the art style from that series is godlike. The author and illustrator for this series is Yubaki Kentaro who also did the art for To Love-Ru, which was both a manga and anime. I didn't read or watch To Love-Ru though because the main character is one of those I hated- random guy gets harem of girls for no good reason. Mayoi Neko Overrun! is getting an anime release this spring though, which I'm looking forward to. I looked at the trailer and thought that the detail of the characters was very subpar in the anime compared to the manga, but the Seiyuu cast is pretty top tier so that might make it worthwhile. I'd still watch it for Chise no matter how bad it is though. Anyway, because of Mayoi Neko Overrun!, people are complaining that Kentaro doesn't have the time to work and develop Futagami Double.
