Drama Review: Ani ni Aisaresugite Komattemasu

Image
 Ani ni Aisaresugite Komattemasu (My Brother Loves Me Too Much) - 5 episodes Setoka Tabichana has been dumped 12 times! And on top of that, her brother, Haruka, is overprotective of her. But her bad luck with guys is about to turn around. Or is about to gets worse? This is based on the manga of the same name by Rina Yagami. I originally thought the reverse harem setup was the 12 guys she's confessed with, which is the complete opposite of reverse harem. But it turns out it will be the beginning of true reverse harem especially when they confront each other in the last part of the series. It will most likely continue in the movie which was released last June but I have not watched it yet. And will probably serves as background story or introductions of the characters in the movie. I noticed that the top 3 contenders all have siblings of which are all friends with each other. Since it's too obvious, let's spill the beans already. I'm not a fan of the fauxcest. But I love ...

Drama Review: First 7 Kisses

Image
First 7 Kisses -  8 episodes Min Soo Jin has never been kissed. Then she met a goddess who grants her wish in the form of seven celebrities. When the news first came out, it was like the fantasy reverse harem casting came true. But the hype went down a notch when I found out its going to be a webdrama. It would be really memorable and significant if indeed it was a full blown drama with these big names. Although it seems impossible to get this ensemble in one project at least we get to experience it at least once. My favorite among all is Park Hae Jin's (the boss). His story is down to earth among all the stories. I loved Ji Chang Wok but I didn't like his action story. I'm not a fan of Lee Jong Suk, but for some reason, I liked him here. Meanwhile, for Lee Min Ho, I said I outgrew him after Legend of Blue Sea, but after seeing him in this kind of role, my feelings came back in an instant.  And just like that, they are now officially part of the Reverse Harem Garden's h...

Anime Review: Kenka Bancho Otome: Girl Beats Boys

Image
Kenka Bancho Otome: Girl Beats Boys- 12 episodes Hinako was convinced by her twin into swapping places with him in the all boy school, Shishiku Academy. And it's not just simple as that. It is a highschool full of delinquents and she has to fight her way all the way to the top. The anime is based on otoge, Kenka Bancho Otome and runs for 10 minutes per episode which is too damn short! I wish it was a full blown series. @#!&%  Not that we're lacking in the gender bender department.  But I can never, ever get enough of this trope. Really. I think they also added the reality show post interview to give more insights to the characters since it's super short. It looks awkward though.  And you know there's too many gender bender when there are subset of tropes too. There is the twin twist of swapping with twin brothers like in the cases of You're Beautiful kdrama, Secret Girl manga and Ouji Sama No Tsukuri Kata manga. There's also identity swap like in Savage Gard...

Book Review: The Selection Book 5: The Crown

Image
The Selection Book 5: The Crown by Kiera Cass This is the second of the two-part story of Eadlyn's and the fifth book in the Selection series. Drastic times call for drastic measures. Eadlyn must now fast track the Selection, but she has not even made up her mind yet of who to choose. She doesn't know the answer until the very last minute. But in truth, she does know the answer but it was not that clear to her since she's not entertaining it at all. But not that there are exciting choices. I find this too tame for the reverse harem market and too serious for young adult. All my theories from the first books did not happen and the antagonist also just came out of the blue. I have already guessed the guy of who she will end up but on a different level. But the sudden turn of events still managed to surprise me. I'm happy that the book showed diversity with the characters, especially at this age. The book is political after all.  A big thumbs up for that. If your work is r...
