Bread Into Bread: Why Shiawase no Pan is the Best Anime of Spring 2012

I come out of my hiatus (don't worry, I'll try to get back at it now that I have time for stuffs...I'm probably gonna do some conclusions but it's hard to do all of them myself. glares at rest of blog crew) to show you how Shiawase no Pan has dazzled me with its brilliance.

To do so, let's take a leaf out of an English major's book and retrace what the studio obviously thought would be a good idea to do in SnP and run it concurrently to what is going on now in this menagerie of wonders. Then I will show you objectively how SnP has excelled in this lineup.

Note: I also had to look at the computer's clock to check that it was 2012. This is probably a bad plan.

Conclusion: Chihayafuru

Chihayafuru...what a weird series.

Didn't know karuta could be so intense. I wish there were more explosions though.

Conclusion: Guilty Crown

Guilty Crown...what a fiasco.

First Impressions: Haiyore! Nyaruko-san

Because last season I made myself depressed by reviewing shit I didn't like beforehand, I'll review shit I do like before I go into a slump. Here's a cute little story centered* around the Cthulhu Mythos monster, Nyarlathotep.




*Has nothing to do with

Conclusion: Zero no Tsukaima F

Yayyyyyyyy Zero no Tsukaima is over...

Expectations - Spring 2012 Anime

Right, the Spring 2012 Anime are coming up right as the Winter 2012 series end, so we're releasing this pretty early. Let's go! Oh actually - a note: we will not review series that nobody on our blog team will ever want to watch. That means we're not gonna review Furusato Saisei Nippon no Mukashi Banashi (a series based on Japanese folk tales) no matter how educational it is to children. Sorry. 


EXTRACAREFUL'S EDIT: As the final publisher, I apologize for the delay on this post - usually we would have been given 2 weeks or so to iron this out between the end of the last season and the beginning of the new one, but for some reason the Spring 2012 season started early (as in, right after Winter 2012 ended) so the blog crew did not have as much time to prep. We'll be good next time, we promise!
