Michiko to Hatchin looks like it could be the series of the season if it continues to be as awesome as the first episode. 8D I loved the first episode! Awesome animation, interesting characters and story already, fun use of music--it's just got everything going for it. I'm getting great vibes here!

I was going to watch a bunch of first episodes today, but after watching Michiko to Hatchin I think it'll have to wait until tomorrow because everything else isn't as attention-grabbing right off the bat.

So far the first episodes I've watched are:

- Shikabane Hime -- Not too impressed with this one so far because it seems to be reasonably standard monsters-and-action fare so far, but it's GAINAX so I'll stick with it for now and see if it shapes up later. And it could--while it didn't get off to a start that really made an impression on me, it might take some interesting twists if I stick with it.

- Toradora -- I've seen the first two episodes (and I might go watch the third now). I don't think this series is amazing or anything and I'm not really into romance anime, but so far it's quite likable and pleasant to watch, so I'm definitely sticking with it. :) I did rather like the second episode. I think Taiga runs the risk of turning into a stereotypical tsundere, but she could also turn into a fantastic character depending on what direction the series takes.

- Kuroshitsuji -- Hmmm, it was quite entertaining. Again, nothing amazing, but certainly likable enough to keep and with some fun characters. Also, Maaya as a twelve-year-old boy? Yesssss, she sounds awesome. I love how large of a range she's playing now; I remember she used to mostly just play girls with sweet-sounding voices so I'm really proud of how she's branched out. :D Also, the ending theme animation is adorable.

- Toaru Majutsu no Index -- A bit forgettable and shounenesque so far, but I'll watch a couple more episodes before I say for sure what I'm going to do with it. It's not bad, just kind of decent-could-go-either way type of stuff.

- Kannagi -- I am a bit ashamed to admit that I enjoyed the first episode of this. ;___; But--um, it was cute and has pretty animation? I don't know, I'll keep it for now because it's cute and pretty, even though I generally hate these series where the goddess type girl shows up and lives in the guy's house and blah blah blah. Whatever. XD The ending theme is pretty!

I still have to watch:

- Eve no Jikan
- Mouryou no Hako
- Casshern Sins
- Yozakura Quartet
- Ga Rei Zero
- Chaos;HEAd

Anything else you guys have seen that you urge me to check out the first episodes of? I may go back to the other entry about fall anime and see if there's anything I missed that I wanted to look into.

I'm hoping not because this is quite a few series to keep track of, but I don't want to miss out on anything good if there's something I should be checking out! As a note I've decided not to watch the Tales of Abyss anime; I'm not a huge fan of video games and anime based off of video games in general. ^^;

Guinea fowl drama! (LOL)

My mom just called to inform me that she went out to feed the poultry this morning (I'm at my dad's house), and there was a random male guinea fowl on the outside of the coop. He frantically wanted to go in the coop with our two female guinea fowl, so she let him in and he caused all kinds of chaos with our rooster and our guinea fowl and all the chickens, so she went in and tried to chase him out. He was flying around and making a ruckus while she chased him, which caused all the chickens to get upset and squawk and fly around as well, and while she was chasing him two of the chickens escaped the coop and were running around the property eating grass and stuff. She finally got the mysterious male guinea fowl to leave the coop and then he left and ran up the hill away from our property, but it took her a half-hour to catch the other two chickens and put them back in the coop.

LOL, guinea fowl drama. :'D I can't stop laughing at how ridiculous this all is--I wish I had gotten to see the chaos. I wonder where the male guinea fowl came from in the first place?
