[AOW] Shinmai Maou no Testament (2/15-21/2015)

[Facebook][MyAnimeList][GoodReads][MyFigureCollection]

Normally these "why'd I bother" specials are of an anime I already finished watching. I believe in giving each series a full watch through before I can declare if it really was a waste of my precious anime watching time, but this anime is a special case because it's still airing and yet I still find myself making sure I at least have the episodes to watch when I need something to either not pay too close attention to or if I'm out of current anime to watch. From what my boyfee has told me, this anime is way too much like Highschool DxD which seems to be madly popular with the male anime watching demographic though I do know some females who have enjoyed it... which sadly gives me even more of a reason to never bother watching Highschool DxD if it is so similar to SMnT.

For the most part, I have nothing really so say about this anime other than it's really not my cup-o-tea. I'm not saying this just because it's so fan servicy, but because the story is so over done. There's nothing really original or an original take on such a plot so this one sits in the "pretty boring" pile of series'.

[AOW] Dragonar Academy (5/4-10/2014)

[previous AOWs][Akia's MyAnimeList]

For this weeks AOW I decided to pick something I haven't even remotely watched yet... and something that made some of my friends laugh for a few days cause of a panel in the manga adaptation.... (all I could do was tell people this was ok because in this manga people go to school to be dragon riders).

He's "riding" his newborn dragon 

(who just happened to be born as a human girl)

Synopsis:

Learning to ride and tame dragons comes easy to most students at Ansarivan Dragonar Academy—except for first-year student Ash Blake, who is known by his fellow classmates as the "number one problem child." Poor Ash is the laughing stock at school because, despite his unfashionably large star-shaped brand that marks him as a future dragon master, he has nothing to show for it. His dragon has never appeared. Until now, that is. One fateful day, Ash's dragon awakes in full glory, but appears different than any dragon ever seen before—in the form of a beautiful girl! What's worse, Ash soon discovers that this new dragon has attitude to spare, as she promptly informs him that she is the master, and he, the servant.Ash's problems with dragon riding have only just begun.
