Thought the girls start playing baseball because of Akiko's pride and temper (which I think it's kind of stupid), they do become a pretty good baseball team in the end and nearly beat their male opponents. Well, the fact that they're so close to a victory is already a great accomplishment for the girls!!! If they really beat the boys, it may be too dramatic. Overall, this anime is quite funny and surprising doesn't provide any services at all with that many female characters in the roster... I don't have great expectation about this anime in the beginning but as the season progresses, it clearly becomes my most favorite anime in the summer season.
咲-Saki-
I think this anime should really end earlier after the group tournament but somehow it's prolonged by several meaningless episodes to finish off the season and it seems that there will be seaons two or OVAs... Though I still don't have any ideas how mahjong is played, it's still pretty exciting to watch them completing at a high level. Besides, maybe the biggest accomplishment of this anime is that it has a very fearful lineup in Saimoe...
CANAAN
Literally, this anime has neither beginning nor end but the fight sequence really saves the show. Otherwise, who whould want to see a confusing story about some crazy bitches in Shanghai (including sister-complex and a mute who loves to have sex with dead bodies)...
東京マグニチュード8.0
Too bad little Yuuki doesn't make it in the end but it's the death of the poor boy makes the ending touching. Whether Yuuki's a ghost or just Mirai's illusion after the eighth episode, he'd always on Mirai's mind and makes her realize the importance of her family. By the way, if it's a happy ending and everyone survives, it won't make this anime special and memorable.
うみものがたり 〜あなたがいてくれたコト〜
"Mina! Aishiteru!" Don't cry, Kanon... if she likes Marin that much, she'd always play the original pachinko game to see her... though they do look very different-_- The overall story is straightforward but it's still a pretty good healing anime.
Phantom 〜Requiem for the Phantom〜
It's almost a happy ending until the Inferno's assassin's last second cheap shot from behind to Reiji... WTF!!! What kind of ending is that??? I don't expect them to live happily ever after but this is just simply unacceptable. It seems that Ein dies, too judged by the way she looks up to the sky as it's said that the purple flower that she touches is poisonous. Well, if Reiji dies, Ein couldn't have the courage to live alone anyway. Even Scythe Master's death is better than the way Reiji's being killed!? By the way, his final six phantoms are so weak... that's why even Cal the psycho could become the best candidate to inherit the title of phantom... This anime is a dark romantic drama with plenty of action sequences and it has a pretty good run but if the ending is better written, I'd like it more.
ファイト一発！充電ちゃん!!
Mahoro: "Ecchi is Bad!!!" Almost all female characters wet themselves when they experience the protagonist long and giant
狼と香辛料II
Not a big fan of this anime but kind of feel that the pace of this season is much slower than the first season... May not watch this series anymore even there's another season...
シャングリ．ラ
"What's otama no kin?" Expectation: A scientific anime with spectacular battle sequences similar to "Last Exile." Reality: A boring story based on Japanese ancient myths, confusing new economy and newhalves... In the end, it's just another anime that neither shines nor disappoints.
宙のまにまに
The storyline is too predictable: recruiting new members - field trip - summer camp - cultural festival - winter camp... and there's nothing special about this anime... maybe the only cool thing about this anime is the flash-telescope trick...
よくわかる現代魔法
The worst anime in the summer. Poor storyline, no climax, confusing jargons, terrible voice-acting, boring characters, little fight sequences, awful op and ed, stupid puppet show as commercial... Omg, why didn't I drop this one earlier?
