My Top 5 Anime in Winter 2017

Winter 2017 is over and it is now Spring 2017.

So many good Anime ended this season but here is a some that stood out to me.

Honourable Mention #1

 • Naruto Shippuden (500 Eps) – 4 ½ Stars 

Naruto has been on our screens for a very long time and it has finally come to an end. I would have had it in my top 5 but the fillers nearly killed me.

Honourable Mention #2

• Twin Star Exorcists (50 Eps) – 4 ½ Stars 

TSE has been going since last year and although it has had its rough episodes that just didn't work I feel in the end it was such a cute, awesome and addictive Anime.

Honourable Mention #3

• Tales of Zestiria: The X [2017] (13 Eps) - 5 Stars 

I would most likely have this in my top 5 but unfortuntley we had to wait until the end of April to have the last episode. A great series for people who have or haven't played the game. Make sure to watch season 1 first.

Nanbaka 2nd Season (12 Eps) – 4 Stars 

I really loved the fact season two would be coming as soon a season one ended but at the same time I wished there was a break to breathe. Not only was it changed from "TV" to "Web" but the only thing that was different was who was singing the opening song as it was the same song. I did enjoy the Anime it self but I felt as though it was rushed and boring at times and the ending really killed me to the fact if there isn't a season 3 I will break some bones.

Chain Chronicle: The Light of Haecceitas (12 Eps) – 4 Stars 

I really enjoyed this Anime but of course it wasn't perfect. I felt like some of the characters was there just to be "there" and no other reason for them at all. I felt the lack of connection to most of the characters too. I loved the fact the "good" guy that turns "bad" guy lasted longer than one episode which most Anime seem to do now and glad they actually had to put in energy to get to places and succeed with plans. I felt it rushed at times but was slow at other times. The ending was really decent and it ended with an actual ending and not a cliffhanger like most Anime do. Also the opening song was epic. 

#3

Scum’s Wish (12 Eps) – 4 ½ Stars 

This was truly the most realistic Anime when it comes to love and heartbreak that I have ever watched and although at times I felt it went a bit overboard I really didn't care as I was into the Anime I just blanked the bad bits out. The character developments in all of the characters was done really well and the flaws that all of the characters had was unique to the said character. I cried at times and sighed at times but it was one hell of a roller-coaster and I am so happy that the ending wasn't cliche like some romance Anime do. It was the Anime that surprised me the most and I will never forget this Anime. The opening and ending song suited this Anime down to the ground and I would only recommend Young Adults and above to watch this as there is some adult content in this show and it tackles some harsh stuff.

#2

Super Lovers 2 (10 Eps) – 5 Stars 

I loved season one of Super Lovers so I had high expectations for season two. It didn't let me down at all. I loved every episode and they managed to develop the characters in more depth in just 10 episodes. The pacing was amazing and each ending of an episode made me want the next one even more so than the last. If I had to complain about something it would be fact it is only 10 episodes long. I hope for a season 3 but I wouldn't be upset if it never happens. 

#1

Blue Exorcist: Kyoto Saga (12 Eps) – 5 Stars 

The announcement for a season two for Blue Exorcist came out of nowhere, I wasn't expecting it at all. I thought after season one if I wanted to know more I would have read the manga. I am so glad I didn't do that because watching this season of Blue Exorcist was amazing. I was sad when I found out it was only going to be 12 episodes but at the same time, I was still hyped for it. Although some episodes was slow, the overall show was fast paced and had amazing fight scenes and character development. Please do keep in mind that this season takes place halfway through season one as the second half of season one was "Anime" only content. Thrilling series and I hope for more Anime to come for this amazing show.

I can't wait to do this again for the Spring shows.

Until then ...
