Soul Eater 03

Episode 03 (7/10 Above Average)
Impression:
Meet Death the Kid. Neurotic, OCD, perfectionist. He carries two weapons, to be symmetrical. I don’t like him as much as they other two weapon technicians, but I’m sure he’ll be a good edition to the cast. Liz is kind of boring; Patty's a little funny. Evidently, the first three episodes were a prologue; it says the real story starts next. Something about this show really reminds me of One Piece. Deshou? I’m really having a fun time with this one.
Suggestive Content:
Kid gets beaten pretty badly; lots of blood. He gropes Patty and Liz, twice, and rants about how their cup sizes are too different. Jerk.

First Look @ Yozakura Quartet

Episode 01 (5/10 Average)
Impression:
I had expected more from this. The art of the anime isn’t as good as in the manga. I had wanted something sleeker and more fluid. It has Pokemon-esque simplicity and is pretty stiff. The concept is fairly good, but not a new one and there have been many, many shows that have done better. If they wanted to join the competition, they should have done better. The character designs are interesting enough, but their clothes and hair move without weight. Not much drama or tension, either. All in all, I’d say this was a weak first episode, if not a weak show.
Suggestive Content:
Nothing but some gunfire.
