Im kinda confused alot of ppl ive talked to says this is a drama/harem/fantasy... i can see fantasy and drama but is this actually going to be a harem anime?

Zero Shinohara · 2006-04-15, 20:47

I'd really doubt it.

Though the game seems to have some harem stuff to it, I'd really doubt that it's gonna be that big in the anime. Especially because of Hakuoro himself. He doesn't seem the type of guy that would go about fantasizing about the girls' panties or getting nosebleeds.

well my understanding of a harem is a bunch of girls like a single guy and it is undetermined which one he likes... nose bleeds, panties, and stuff were just fan service i though (well not the nosebleeds lol unless somebodys got an odd fetish)

I realy doubt it aswell.., as I previously posted.., this will surely be a fantasy / action / drama (possibily) anime..
Just take a look at the OP.., there are ALOT of characters and alot of fight scenes...; plus.. most of episode 2 was all action aswell.
Anyway.., we have 24 more weeks ahead before this anime ends so.., its realy too soon to say anything

Well, you've got a point there. However, I still wouldn't classify it as "harem", since it has mostly a bad connotation, again linking to the fanservice part. Maybe a "multiple-sides love relationship", but definetly not harem.

Still, we already have a bit of "fanservice". Remember the trail-grabbing part? To me that was fanservice enough :P Good fanservice, not bad fanservice!

Damn, I've been finding it pretty hard to express myself in english for a whole. I wonder why that is.

You're right about this. Again, judging by the CGs, we'll have a lot of drama plots in there. I'm actually feeling a bit uneasy because I already know how to expect, and I know I'll have nightmares in Aruruu/Eruruu's sake.

Best part of the show so far.

Hmmm..gut feeling: this won't become a classical "harem" anime. While it's true that people may be attracted to the lead male (and why not...that's a pretty hot mask he's wearing), I think there's really only one love story going on.

Well, we all know which love story that is

And THAT gif was what made me start watching UtaMono in the first place, Catgirls :P Thxes T0 U

Catgirls, it'll be really great if we could add sound to .gifs (we can't right?) That sigh she did when her ears wilted made the moment.

And yep it was the same for me. Then I saw the OP and the song hooked me.

Zero Shinohara · 2006-04-16, 01:36

As far as I know, we can't as of yet.

And yeah, the sound she made made me drown in cuteness.

mmmm.. I have to say..., the first time I heard the OP song.., it realy didn't appeal to me..., I don't know exactly.., maybe I was expecting something else..

Strangest thing though.., after seeing episode 2 for a few times (and the OP along with it) the song kind of stod in my ear.., and now currently.., I can't get enough of it..

This hasn't happened to me in quite a while.., I'd have to say.., the last OP song which I didn't like at first and then after hearing it a few time I started to simply.. love it, was.. mm.. Hemisphere from RahXephon..

Now thinking about it.., the same might happen with this anime in an overall basis..., specialy because the last fantasy anime I saw was Slayers.., and that was quite some time ago..

Well thats your fault for getting them in the first place, but before I sound like a big hypocrite i'll be honest and say I also tend to do that with all the bishoujo anime that I tend to favor. But due to the huge spoilerific fact that cgs bring I stoped doing that, well for now anyway. That is untill the anime finishes, I like to be shocked ala canvas 2 style ending. hehe

RT your post is expired already

Zero Shinohara already joined the club for that inresistable gif that Catgirl made

Zero Shinohara · 2006-04-16, 10:37

Rofl, gotta say that's right :P

And nah, I'm usually fine with spoilers, it has always been like that. (Note that I watched FMA backwards, LOL) And I wanted the CGs for myself, Eruruu looks very cute in them :insertcatgirlsgifhere:.

Always happens to me. In fact, I came to like UtaMono's OP much faster than any of the Rozen Maiden ones (Exception is HnS. That was love at first sight). But since I rarely watch anime on a regular bases, instead of plowing through all the episodes I can in the least ammount of time possible, it's a bit rare to get used to a song the first time I hear it.

But now it plays on my playlist about 50 times a day :P And the scene where Eruruu is shown at the end has become my phone's starting video <_< >_> *Fanboy*

Shiroth · 2006-04-16, 15:31

Aruruu really stole episode 02 for me.. you just gotta love her type of character.

I'll agree that the OP's good, can't wait for the full song.

Yea I love that OP. It fits the video so well, and that song rocks. Im going to get the full when ti comes out. I believe it's "Musouka" by "Suara".

She's about the cutest character so far.

Spoiler for Aruruu:

Zero Shinohara · 2006-04-16, 16:11

Well, I guess she'll keep her spot as the cutest one throughout the whole series.

Spiritual Cuteness + weird ears + White tiger Cub = WIN

You never know, the father might have the same style of hair.. same attitude etc - it doesn't just have to be his face.
