Review: IGPX Anime
Well starting off this review is kinda hard to put into words, you see when I first saw some of the show, it was many years ago when I saw a few episodes when they were still airing on Cartoon Network. A few years later, I realized how cool of a show I thought it was and so i decided to go on my computer and watch the series in its entirety. So, here is my review of IGPX.

Review: Code Geass (R1 & R2) Anime Review
This next series that I have decided to review is one of the best Anime series that I have ever seen. This series is both interesting in a way that will keep you glued to the show until its end, and has great supporting characters, plot, and other things in order to make a series great. Here is my review of Code Geass!

Review: Rave Master Anime Part 2
Thinking about it, I found that my earlier post about the Rave Master was kinda short and lacked the details and information that makes a review really valuable. Therefore in this post I will go a little more in depth into the anime in order to show its pros and cons.
The series itself is very entertaining bringing more comedy into the series than one would think into a show like this, and although a lot of it is pun-based humor and at times going to places that are very random, can be entertaining at times when you don't know what is going to happen next within the storyline. The supporting cast have mainly to do with this especially with the characters of Plue, Griff, and Elie. The main running joke is finding out exactly what species the first two of those characters are and although it does get slightly old at times, it does keep the show flowing.
One problem I did find with the characters is that they almost never can seem to find out what they are looking for themselves and usually need the help of some new character that comes into play at some point in the series. The same goes with the fights. I can think of only one time where Haru and the other main characters won a fight by themselves without someone else coming in and saving them in a flash of luck.
Something else is that they seem to go to a lot of flashbacks in this series and therefore kind of kill time with it when they really don't need to at all. Maybe if they had spent less time looking at flashbacks and more time with the story, they could have actually completed the series in the anime instead of stopping at episode 51.
The villains unfortunately weren't that good in the fact that the main villain of the series (or who is assumed to be the main one for a good portion of the show) fights the main character very early on in the series and is defeated fairly quickly, but then afterward, more evil ones come forward thereby extending the story, and yet the new villains were never explained as to why they were there and where they came from.
Still overall this is a good series in the fact that the powers are cool, the technology is great, and the fights are interesting. If you want to watch this series, I recommend using Youtube videos, they split each episode in two parts around 10 min each and they can get you through the series fairly quickly.

Review: Rave Master Anime
Through the past few weeks, I have been watching the Anime known as Rave Master, about a boy named Haru who is the second Rave Master in a world that is completely corrupted by evil forces. This series was very good in terms of the action and explaining of how things came to be and how things work in this world. The only thing I did not like is that they quit making the Anime after 51 episodes and although they continue in the manga, I don't really want to take the time to read the manga scans, and therefore I am going to go on to the next show that I will watch, which I have yet to decide what that will be. Through the series, the main characters are faced with many different opponents, but they never seem to have the power to beat them and something sort of happens to turn it in their favor. As much as the powers in this world are very interesting, the plot was semi-dry and the action repetitive. But for those who are looking for something to watch that has a good base to it and a relatively good way to explain things in simple terms, then this is a good series and should be checked out. Overall I would give it a 7.5/10
