Ayakashi


English title : Ayakashi
Chinese title :魂兽
Japanese title : アヤカシ

Ayakashi is a parasite life force that gives superpowers to its host, taking in return the host's entire life force. Yuu Kusaka is a student that lost his will to live after the death of a dear childhood friend, until the day a mysterious girl, named Eimu Yoake, appears. From that moment on, his life would never be the same again. Hunted by Ayakashi and their hosts, the power within Yuu awakens and a never ending battle begins.


My opinion:

It's rather bloody sometimes, which kinda disgust me. But the plot and storyline is nice. A nice and short anime with 12 episodes long, best for those who like action anime. The ending is nice, except for the main character, Eimu, who lost her sight in the end as that is what she return to her Ayakashi.

Anime Puzzles!!! (动漫拼图)

I found a really great website that offer anime jigsaw puzzles online!!! As long as you have a Java software in your computer, you are free to play the puzzles!!!

http://www.puzzle8.com/puzzle/puzzleTypeSelect.asp?recordId=1

It's chinese website, but I will say they have a great range of anime jigsaw puzzles online!!! They even offer using the new version recently, but I still prefer the older version, which is still available!!!

1. Choose the picture you want to play with
2. If you want to use the new version of java, click on the button with 开始拼图 and you can start the game
3. If you want to use the old version(which I recommended), click on
»老版本java 拼图,点这里
4. Then choose the 开始拼图 button and you can start the game


For the new version, I am not sure of how to play. But the old version is much easier. Just right-click the puzzle piece to rotate it and use your left-click to match it! It's that simple!!!

Omamori Himari (守護貓娘緋鞠 / 猫耳属性)

This is a damn nice manga!!! Although it is rather hentai, but the plot is nice!!!!

Seven years ago, Amakawa Yuuto's parents died leaving him living alone without a single relative. Ever since then, his childhood friend, Kuzaki Rinko, has waken him up, cooked for him and generally taken care of him. The only thing that he has from any relative is a mysterious charm, a red ball, given to him by his grandparents as a good luck charm.

From the day of his 16th birthday, his charm is said to not be able to protect him from evil spirits anymore, and into Yuuto's life walks Himari. A cat spirit-samurai girl and demon hunter who swears to protect Yuuto(because of her ancestors' loyalty pledge to the Amakawa family and for another reason!!!).

But, there is only one small problem: Yuuto has a severe allergic reaction to cats!!!

As the story continues, more different kinds of spirits appear --- teacup spirit, water spirit and so on!!!
