Beelzebub episode 6 summary!! WITCH DOCTOR!!

 hey guys! It's Liz(crispy) here with a summary on Beelzebub episode 6 ^_^
Beelzebub is about a juvenile delinquent,Oga (as seen above)who,through stange circumstances, is raising a demon baby.  The tattoo on his hand symbolizes his relationship with Baby Beel ,and the closer he gets to Baby Beel, or beats the heck outta people, the more it spreads!  

Well, in the beginning of he episode, Hilda returned from the demon world with...demon toys!! The first toy Oga and Hilda assemble is a cage like thing (Oga and Hilda assumed that it was a toy cage, but in reality , it was a magical monster cage!!! NEXT THING YOU KNOW, THEY GOT TRAPPED IN IT!!!!
  They were trying to get Baby Beel to understand them to help them out, but Baby Beel couldn't hear them through the cage's barrier.  So, Oga called upon Baby Beel's' power to break through the cage and proved that he could summon Baby Beel's power even when he and Baby Beel are separated.  With Baby Beel's power, Oga destroyed the cage entirely and he and Hilda are now free!

Oga brought Baby Beel's toys to school so that Baby Beel wouldn't get bored.  On the school roof, Baby Beel brought out the doctor toy kit and opened it! And, all of a sudden, Baby Beel transformed into a doctor's outfit and Oga and his friend, Furuichi transformed into nurses' outfits XD
  
The only way that they can turn back to normal is if they heal an ill patient.  They tried various experiments with the tools, one of which is a mask for your butt !!! XD
Some other dilinquents heard rumors going around the school that Oga was taking over the nurse's office, so, they headed down to the nurse's office to see if the rumor was true.  While there, the other delinquents got caught in yet another explosion (which is very common in this particular anime :D).  And it wasn't until the end that Oga discovered that the doctor headband that Baby Beel was wearing could heal patients by simply pressing the button on the device.  So, Oga and Baby Beel heal the patients with Baby Beel's device and they all transform back to normal out of nurse-form!
  And thats the episode in a nutshell :D  It seems that, at this rate, Oga will be forever stuck with Baby Beel- This was personally my favorite episode so far, and I can't wait to see the rest!  Well, stay tuned for the next episode on this coming saturday!

 "DA-BOO!!" (quoted by Baby Beel) which I still have no idea what that means XD

PoKe'Mon Manga: The Electric Tale of Pikachu Review!!

Hey guys!! It's Liz (cirspy) here with a review on Poke'MoN the manga: The Electric Tale of pikachu!! :D
There are four comics total in the U.S. as far as I know, and boy, are they funny!!!!!!!!!!!! XD
The manga has somewhat of a different story telling than the anime.  In the manga, Ash finds pikachu in the wall of his house going through wires (since Pikachu is an electric mouse and all) and he gets rubber gloves so he won't get shocked.  Pikachu eventually becomes his companion and they set out on their journey, as very pokemon trainer does. 
 Brock and Misty even join Ash in his quest.  And  yes, Pikachu also toasts Misty's bike XD
Professor Oak eating Ramen, Gary and Sabrina are in the first four comics as well- IT IS VERY FAST-PACED, which I prefer things fast paced because it moves along quicker. 
The comedy is nonetheless GREAT!!! I really enjoy the characters' expressions and the art style as well!
I would recommend this to any pokemon fan :D
 There's also a Star Trek reference, as you can see on Pikachu's chest ( the image above is reade LEFT to right)
Well, I would give this manga an OVER 9000 out of 10!! and there you have it! This is Liz, over and out-

Bleach Review: Helping Lost Souls Find Peace!! :D

  Hey Guys!! It's Liz (crispy) here with another review up my sleeve!! ^ ^       Today I'm gonna review Bleach!                              
 
Bleach is about a fifteen year old boy named Ichigo Kurosaki (the guy in the image above), whom has the ability to see ghosts.  He's a typical tough guy with a tough looking face, but, despite that, he has a kind heart and is actually a great student.  He cares deeply for his friends, and one day, there is a monster attacking his town, Karakura, and he sees a girl in a black robe attack and slay the monster.
 That girl's name is Rukia, and she ends up in Ichigo's house later, because she senses spiritual pressure in his house.  Thinking that Rukia is a burgler, Ichigo kicks her in the butt and she explains what that monster was.  Apparently, the spiritual monster was a 'Hollow', and a lost soul that wanders the earth and fills its grief by feeding on humans.  Also, she didn't slay the monster- she cleansed it of its sin and most likely sent it to soul society if it was a good soul.  If it was a bad spirit, her sword (zanpakuto) sends it to hell, where it would belong.  Rukia explains that she is a Soul Reaper, sent from Soul Society.  Soul reapers help protect lost souls and help them find peace.  At this rate, Ichigo is confused, so Rukia shows him a pathetic drawing to explain it simpler!
 Ichigo then tells her that her drawings suck and she gives him a mushtache! XD

Next, Rukia senses spiritual pressure, and a hollow attacks Ichigo's family.  Rukia fights the hollow and is taken down. Injured and beat, Rukia asks Ichigo, "Do you want to save your family?" and Ichigo says, "Of course."  Rukia then offers Ichigo to give him her powers by striking her sword through his heart.  He agreees, and she strikes the sword through his heart! Awakened, Ichigo is now a Substitute Soul Reaper and devotes his powers to helping lost souls find peace!
 My favorite episode is episode 10, the BWAHAHAHA EPISODE!!!! but, I shall not spoil it for you :D

Over all, this is personally one of my favorite anime for the great action, fights scenes are EPIC, and the comedy is GREAT! It really delves deep into the characters past, and you can relate to them-the characters really grow on you.  I would recommend this to any action fan of anime. :D
-The manga is more fast paced, if you prefer the manga, but the anime is good too despite the fillers.  It just depends if you're a filler person or not-
I would give this show an OVER 9000/10!!!
 This is Liz over and out! BWAHAHAHAAHHAHA!!!

7 Billion Needles Manga Review: Scifi-Thriller

 Hey guys! It's Liz (crispy) here with a review on 7 Billion Needles :D

7 Billion Needles is about a girl named Hikaru Takabe.  She is not very social and is often misunderstood by her classmates.  Hikaru always wears her headphones to block out the world around her.  She isn't a part of the crowd, but one day, she is wandering on the beach during a school trip by herself, and a star crashes on her.  That 'star' was a celestial being that now lives off of her body, like a parasite, rather.  He, the celestial being, sends her messages through her headphones, as if she's hearing voices.  He tells her that there is another celestial being that crashed to earth that is evil, named Maelstrom.  So, Hikaru is dragged into an intergalactic battle of 'cat and mouse'. 
 7 billion needles is gathered into our volumes total.  This is personally one of the best sci-fi reads I have ever read, and I would recommend it to any scifi-horror fan!  This series was actually based off of the book, Needle, by Hal Clement.  I am currently going on volume 3, which is released on February 15, 2011.  I have read the first two volumes, and boy, are they awesome!! :D

Resident Evil 0: Before the Mansion, Before the Disaster, Evil is Born

Hey There! I'm here to give you a review on Resident Evil 0 ( Biohazard 0 in other countries), anther good game in the series. This story revolves around Resident Evil. It is July 23,1998, a Ecliptic Express has been attack by Leaches( an enemy you will encounter) controlled by a mysterious figure ( i won't get into details) on the outskirts of Raccoon City.  2 hours later The S.T.A.R.S Bravo team's helicopter has crashed in the forest after being sent in to investigate the bizarre murders that have been happening recently. During this time, an prisoner escaped from a prison transport and is lurking in the woods, Ex-Lieutenant Billy Coen. This is where the story comes in.


You play as Rebecca Chambers, The Medic and Billy Coen. Unlike Resident Evil, after you meet Billy Coen on the attacked train, you can switch characters with him, even switch and trade items.  

You must survive the night by getting past Zombies infected with the T-virus ( and animals) and monsters created by the pharmaceutical company, Umbrella. You also have to solve puzzles in order to get farther in the game.With the variety of weapons at your hands, you can take down whatever comes your way.

The graphics is this game are SUPERB. The setting and music fit perfectly the genre. The characters have unique personalities that will get you hooked. The story will grip on to you until the very end of the game enough to make play it again and again until you see everything before the mansion incident.

Blood + Anime Review (hot off the press!)

Hey guys!! It's Liz here with yet another anime review :D
This time I am reviewing Blood +
 Blood + is my all time favorite horror anime/manga ever :D
The plot revolves around Saya, an amnesiac high schooler who can't remember anything past one year.  She was adopted by a man named George, whom also took in two other guys, a boy named Riku, and and a teenager named Kai.  One day, she leaves her track shoes at school, and heads back at night.  She sees a mysterious man with long dark hair and a dagger; she then calls for help.  The teacher who helped her was then dragged up a tree by a monster.  That monster was known as a chiropteran, and the dark haired man gave Saya some of his blood so that she could awaken.  The man gives her her sword and she kills the beast.  Saya's blood is the only blood that can kill chiropterans and she joins forces with an organization known as the red shield, to stop them.
Now I shall get into the characters! ^ ^
 Haji is the mysterious tall, dark figure.  He knows everything about Saya's past and is connected to her somehow.  He's also quite good at playing the cello, if I do say so myself!  His right hand is the hand of a chiropteran, I believe.
 Here's Kai, Saya's brother.  He is personally my favorite character of the series.  He introduces Saya to the phrase "Nankuru-nasa",which means "live for today and look forward to tomorrow".  Kai is the big brother figure and always supports Saya and his family.  He is a great character.
 Riku is Saya and Kai's younger brother.  He is gentle and kind.  He normally does the housework.

George is the man whom adopted Saya, Kai, and Riku.  He lost his wife and daughter in a terrible accident.  He is a great father, and is very supportive.
 To the left is David.  He is the guy in charge of Saya and is part of the Red Shield organization.  He is stern, and serious, and right to the point. 
 Diva is Saya's evil sister.  I don't wanna spoil too much so I won't get into it.  ^ ^'

Anyhow, the plot is great, the characters draw close to you, and the animation is awesome! What can I say? This is a GREAT ANIME! I give this anime an over 9000/10 hands down and I recommend this show to any action/horror fan.

Neon Genesis Evangelion: Psychology and the War between Heaven and Earth

  Hey guys! It's Liz here with a review on Neon Genesis Evangelion,  Neon Genesis Evangelion (or just 'Evangelion') is an anime about the war between heaven and earth in the year 2015 A.D.  Three main pilots are chosen to pilot humanity's ulitmate weapon, the 'Eva Units' to wage battle against the angels.  Nerv is the orgainization behind the Eva Series.  Nerv is connected to the United Nation's orgainization, Seele ( a German word for 'soul).  The three pilots are Shinji Ikari, Asuka Langley Soryhu, and Rei Ayanami.
 Shinji is the protagonist of the show.  He is a fourteen year old boy that pilots Unit 01, he was chosen so by his father, Gendo Ikari, the Commaner of Nerv.  Shinji doesn't want to fight, and always runs away from his problems.  Abandonned by his father after his mother died when he was little, he was resistant to accept his father's request to pilot. He has depression, and the psychology of this show delves deep into the human mind, more so than anhy other anime I have seen. 
  Now here's Asuka! Pilot of Unit 02, and boy, she is a firey red head! My favorite character of the show, actually. She is half German, half Japanese.  She lost her mother and never had a father.  She already has a college degree, despite being fourteen years old. The series delves deep into her thoughts and the problems that she has faced in the past.  She is a tsundere.  She builds up a wall to people and is resistant to let them in.  She puts on a mask to hide her true feelings.  Again, she is nonetheless one my favorite female anime characters ever! She has such a GREAT personality- but I won't spoil to much for ya :D
  Rei Ayanami is also fourteen years old, SUPPOSEDLY.  Her past is unknown,  but she will grow on you.  She doesn't really express emotions, except I LOVE episode 6, when she actually smiles! I shall not spoil it, though.  She is very close to Gendo, and develops feelings for him.  In the manga, she also develops feelings for Shinji.  She is the pilot of Unit 0.  Shinji views Rei as a 'mother' figure. 

 Gendo Ikari, Shinji's father, is at war with God.  He is, as I said, commander of Nerv.  His wife, Yui Ikari, passed away, and he is planning to destory the earth if he has to or cause a Third Impact inorder to see her again.

Basically, over half of the population of earth was destroyed in 2001 A.D. in a catastrophe known as 'Second Impact'.  However, why the angels are attacking is yet to be revealed.

 Personally, I think that Unit 01 is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!! The mecha action is SUPER DUPER, and the characters really are appealing.  The series delves deep into the characters' psyche and heir personality.  I would recommend Evangelion to anyone at anytime, and I would give this show an OVER 9000 out of 10 :D

-I would also recommend BOTH the anime AND manga, because the manga is an alternate retelling of evangelion.  Both the anime and manga are awesome.  There are also Rebuild of Evangelion movies coming out in Japan.  Basically, the director of Evangelion is remaking the whole series of Evangelion into four movies.  I am getting the second movie, Evangelion 2.22 for my birthday, and, once I get it, I shall review it ^ ^
so, stay tuned! :D
