Sacred Blacksmith. Really awesome short series who has a day to do nothing. There are only 12 episodes but it is a cute series about a girl, Cecily Campbell, who is a 3rd generation knight and wants to protect everyone. She inherited the knighthood when her father passed away. She is very strong willed but is kind of helpless in actual battle. Then she meets Luke Ainsworth who is a blacksmith and an awesome swordsman. He is known for his special skills of forging katanas, which are not really popular in the area, with the help of his partner Lisa. He teaches Cecily not willingly how to be stronger in battle and challenges her to become a better knight if she wants to protect the ones she cares for. Another character that comes into play is Aria who is a demon sword that can take a human form. She becomes best friends with Cecily who was ordered to protect her and eventually uses Aria to protect the people. I won't spoil the plot but there are some things in the plot line that will be learned later by the viewer and Cecily herself about the characters she calls her friends. It is cute and the only complaint that I have is that it is too short and that is also due to a lack of a second season. The characters are likable and there is a slightly blooming romance between Cecily and Luke but it isn't explored that much in the first season. I definitely recommend this anime. And it is on Netflix to stream!
And the next is..... Maid Sama! I think I found one of my favorite animes. I love action anime, suspenseful anime, romantic anime usually in a combination. But this is all high school romance so I wasn't sure at first but the characters had me falling in love by the second episode. Misaki is student council president at Seika High which has recently became a co-ed school. She is the first girl student president and a self proclaimed man hater. She wants more girls to come to Seika and in order to do that she needs to clean up the school and the guy's manners along with that. But she carries a secret as well. She has a part time job to support her isngle mother and sister at Maid Latte a maid cafe. She fears that if anyone from the high school were to learn of this then the reputation she worked hard to build would be ruined. She is admired by the girls and teachers and feared/hated by the boys because of her constant changes to the school's image. Takumi Usui one night happened to see Misaki outside of her cafe in her maid outfit and found her to be interesting. Usui is good looking, smart, good at just about everything and turns down girl's proclamations of love just about everyday. He started coming to the cafe where Misaki works and she thinks it is because he is a "perverted alien" and just teasing her. He also says he will not tell anyone her secret because it is his personal pleasure. Though throughout the series we see that Usui is clearly fell for Misaki almost instantly but Misaki is so clueless to her own feelings she calls him a perverted alien, sees him as a burden, and an idiot. But he is always showing up where she needs him the most and eventually starts to realize her feelings for him at the end of the series. It is a beautiful and cute romantic anime. Any girl's fantasy or picture of romance. At least in my book. >:] Usui is definitely in my top 5 male anime characters if not number one. WATCH THIS ANIME ^_^
That is all it is now time for me to go to bed so I can actually do something productive with my life tomorrow.
Goodnight world!! I love you to the moon and back <3
