I've been watching, or more like listening, to anime while making decks for [livejournal.com profile] colors_tcg and [livejournal.com profile] twistserve_tcg. I finished two series this way. XD;

Itazura na Kiss
I haven't read the manga, but I did catch parts of the Taiwanese drama while my mom was watching it, and wow, the drama and this anime sure follow the same story very closely! The art can be a bit funky at times, and boy is Kotoko dense and Irie frigid, but I found the overall series touching, especially the episode before the last one. I sniffled. ;__; This is one thorough series that follows the relationship way past the confession. I liked the simple music. Was used very effectively, especially for certain cliffhanger endings.

Kuroshitsuji
Haha, I watched up to episode 9 when this was still airing, but I stopped. But hearing about the ending actually made me watch it, so I did. I immediately noticed how much prettier the art was (since I had just finished watching Itazura na Kiss. Huge contrast). After watching this, I had that creepy song the dollmaker was singing stuck in my head. I always found dolls creepy. >__> I wasn't attached to any of the characters and didn't feel much for them (even when they got into very bad situations), but Ciel did make me snicker at him at one point. Overall impression of this series...creepy, but pretty.

I tried watching Tears to Tiara afterward, but after 5 episodes, I was completely lost since I hadn't been paying enough attention. I guess "listening" to series only works when I actually know most of the characters already and the basic plot.

Which doesn't make starting watching Macross Frontier make any sense. XD; I let Macross Frontier play in the background, but that didn't work very well since I found myself paying more attention to watching than to what I was trying to multitask on. Otherwise, I'd have been lost again. I'm finding Macross Frontier pretty captivating so far. I'm on episode 9. It helps that I really like Alto. :3 I figured if I'm going to the May'n concert at AX, I better know what she's most famous for. XDDD So my goal is to finish this series before AX comes around!

(By the way, drabble requests are still open if anyone wants to request anything to help me exercise my mind~)
