[ISM Flight 2 Anime]

White Album 2

Rina tells Yuki that she wants to meet that boyfriend of hers. Meanwhile, Haruta comes to Touya's house and asks him for a walk outside. Touya declines but goes with her in the end after seeing that she does not want to leave if he declines. It turns out that Touya will be running after Haruta since she was the only one with a bike. The both of them sat down and rested while Haruta leans against him. Yuki goes to a residence where her boss had something important to tell her and Rina comes by afterwards. She sees Yuki crying and was unable to understand why. Yuki only tells her that she was very happy. Haruta stands up suddenly, causing Touya to fall over and they proceed back home. At work, Touya gets visit by Akira who brings his cheesecake that was loved by many people. Touya talks about Akira's past where he tries to learn how to bake and two people came in with a scarf and sunglasses on them. It later turns out to be Yuki and Rina and they started to eat the cheesecake that Akira had made. All of them had a great time chitchatting when Yuki's manager comes by at the exact time and brings Yuki back for recordings. Yuki and Touya waves goodbye to each other while Rina stays back since her manager has not come and get her. Rina later asks Touya for his phone number and leaves with her brother first. At night, Touya calls Misaki and talks to her. Touya apologises since she was sick but she felt happy as she was able to chat with him. Yuki reaches her home and smiles when she sees the phone. Touya also returns home and rushed to the phone when it rings and it happens to be Rina who had called him.

*loved the way they animate the series, with all those artistic add-ons in some scenes and also those small words at the side... quite a nice anime. The story seems to be quite complicated since maybe Rina had wanted to get together with Touya? Touya and Yuki are like losing their relationship due to her work as well so the story plot is quite nice =)*

Chrome Shelled Regios 1

The story starts with people evacuating from their colony due to an attack by a filth-monster. A team of people then comes by and "restore" their weapons and attack that huge monster. They manage to blow the whole body apart which almost hit one of the team members. One of them leaves on the vehicle, away from the colony. In the 17th platoon, Nina, the captain, is attempting to stop a member from leaving the platoon but to no avail. Nina and her platoon members rushes out to see those new students and tried to look for someone to join her platoon. Sadly, most of those skilled students belonging in the Military Arts are already taken by other platoons and they were left with almost no one. The kid then comes into the school without wearing any uniform and was a normal student when two of Military Arts new students unleash their kei and started to fight each other. The fight slowly grew out of hand when one of them causes a structure to collapse on a girl who happens to be there. The kid then rushes forward to save her after hearing a telepathy message from a girl with long hair. Nina and her platoon members rushes to the scene but was already stopped by that kid. Back at the platoon, Nina wonders if that kid would do good in their platoon and goes to the president's office to try and get him into her platoon. The kid, Layfon, was seeing the president who suggests to him to transfer to the Military Arts department and forces him to change into their uniform. Nina comes in later and asks the president to leave Layfon in her care. On going to the boy's dorm, Layfon sees the long hair girl again and confirms that she was the one who had sent that message. Layfon later also realises that that girl was with the 17th platoon as well as seen from the badge she has. Meichen, who had been saved by Layfon, somehow has a crush on him already. Layfon tries to sleep and was brought back to the fight at the colony again. The monster did not die after that and regenerated. The whole team then used all of their powers and manages to bring the entire monster down in one shot and successfully destroyed it. The parts of the body then flies up into the sky and attempts to regenerate in the sky while one of them stabs into it. Layfon immediately wakes up after that.

*i have been anticipating it since i've read its manga before and it was great. the animation was great as well and those uniforms for the Military Arts were beautiful as well. the anime is nice with a good story plot and such and it seems to be one of those winter animes that really kept me hooked. The insert melodies were nice as well and in overall, the anime series was great and its a thumbs up! XDD*
