2024 Watch List pt3

Takura-kun & Amagi-kun - This has lots of the Japanese traits that I don’t always love but I did find myself warmed by it. It’s basically two boys being teenage and idiotic whilst learning how to love and be loved. I really liked the two besties in this. 3/5 (13/3/24)

Although I love you, and you? - Apparently this is wildly different from the manga so people were hating on it but, with zero knowledge of the manga, I have to say I enjoyed it. Very silly but had a nice emotional depth to it and Sakae & Soga made for interesting leads. Also loved the little found family of friends and bar regulars. 3 ½/5 (15/3/24)

One Room Angel - This could really only be Japanese. Beautiful, bittersweet and healing this does come with a lot of trigger warnings but if you can stomach it’s darker elements it’s really worth the journey. 4/5 (26/3/24)

Love is science (BL cut) - Just about an hour on YouTube this was delightful. Undoubtedly would not have enjoyed all the different het storylines but these two should have been a show on their own. Just lush. (No rate because it’s a cut. 28/3/24)

Senpai this can’t be love - Errm. Elements I really liked, and I don’t think it’s anywhere near as bad as some make it out to be, but it did have a very naff ending and they deserved a better kiss. These two were cute but probably not one I’ll reach to rewatch. 3/5 (30/3/24)

WaterBoyy - I really only watched this because I’m a dumbass with completionist tendencies. It’s a show? The story and script are absolutely insane. There is so much het nonsense, which I entirely skipped, weird dated language and extremely 2017 dubcon. I can give a lot of old shows a pass for being of their time but this is bad even by 2017 standards. I’ll give it a half point for being moderately well acted. But that’s it. 1/2 (1/4/24)

Our Dating Sim - Very cute. Packed a surprising amount of story into a short time frame. Also delivered some nice kisses. 3/5 (2/4/24)

Jun & Jun - Enjoyed most of this. Episodes 5 & 6 felt a little redundant. Great kisses, much higher heat than standard for a K BL. Would have loved more from the manager & idol pairing, they had an interesting history and I’d like to have seen them a little more developed. I could understand why no man could resist Lee Jun’s face, a 100% cutie. 3/5 (3/4/24)

Love is better the second time around - Much to love about this one. The acting all round was stunning, Aloha as Senpai’s bitchy assistant was hilarious and I need him in a main BL role again soon, the leads were able to tell whole stories in subtle facial expressions. I think the end was satisfying but I did feel like it could have used 8 episodes instead of 6. 4/5 (10/4/24)

Unknown - Quite the surprise. I’m a little hesitant with the pseudo incest, brother lover whatever the hell you want to call it trope. But this was done beautifully well. A mild melodrama with slice of life and found family at its core this is wholly worth your time and I loved it a lot. 5/5 (20/4/24)

IT'S ALWAYS YOU TWO!! ALWAYS YOU DAMN TWO!! WHY DON'T YOU JUST GO OUTSIDE OR SOMETHING?! ANYTHING BUT EVIL STUFF!! I'M TIRED OF YOU!!!

Oh, look, it's her!

And where are you, Crimson Riot?! Where ARE YOU?! ANSWER MY QUESTION!!

Well, damn...

He is a softie!!!

Koichi and Kazuho being cuties again! Soga lowkey looks like Leo... Leon from Danganronpa, but also kinda like an angrier Kirishima if you didn't know what color Soga's hair is (it's turquoise)... which is even funnier to me that both characters share an English VA. Hee hee...

Also...!

Himitsu: The Revelation

Normally, when I finish something, I take a little time away from it to process it before writing about it, see what I remember sticking out, what I liked and disliked, and pretty much keep a solid, if not necessarily objective, head on whatever I talk about.

That being said, here’s my thoughts and, under a cut because spoilers and the like. I’m pretty much going to spoil the end of the show, so don’t go peeking in here unless you just don’t care. :P

Himitsu -Top Secret-: The Revelation, despite the cheap as fuck animation budget it seemed to have, has a good, engaging story, despite the fucking dumb name that’s on the level of Manos: The Hands of Fate. There’s no english dub, so subtitles are the only way one can go for this bastard. Thank The Hylia for still having this anime up for download. Now this anime takes place about five decades into the future, with no exact year specified.

Now, upon first look at any kind of material and reading the summary for it, everyone would probably assume that the Big Seme looking dude in the glasses is the boss and Cutie McUke is the newbie that joins.

...And you’d be absolutely fucking wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong. Wrong.

Our story starts off with the newbie Aoki Ikkou, arriving on his first day at his new job at the National Research Institute of Police Science’s 9th Forensics Lab or Section 9 as I and everyone else is going to call them because typing all that shit up is a pain. :P

Aoki and the team of Section 9, lead by Maki Tsuyoshi, are responsible for handling a brand new piece of technology called the Memory Reproduction Imaging system or MRI as I’ll continue to call it. The MRI system pries into the brain of a dead person to look in the memories in order to help solve crimes, mainly murders. However, because the memory fragments have no audio, lip reading is an important skill and Aoki is hired to be one of the lip readers and investigators in Section 9. Now, on to the list of our teammates. Because they all primarily refer to each other by their surnames, I’m sticking with that:

Aoki: The newbie. Wears glasses and is the one most unsure about himself while doing his job. Comes from a relatively happy family with a dad (who dies from a stroke early on in the show), a mom, and a sister. Now, I bring up the sister because there’s at least twice where Aoki’s feelings for his sister are... Gah, dude, why?! Luckily, the sister marries someone else (I pray, however, it’s not the cheating cad of a married loser she was banging during the 2nd & 3rd episode) during the middle of the show, so there’s that. He’s one of our main leads and is primarily the viewpoint character we follow. It’s his perspective on shit we see, therefore, get used to him.

Maki: The Director of Section 9 with a damaged past. Maki winds up killing his best friend after said best friend supposedly went insane watching the memories of a deranged killer named Kainuma. It traumatized him to the point that every time that Maki sees Kainuma’s face, he faints. He sleeps with a bulletproof vest on and a hollowed-out bible with a gun inside it. He’s not the most well-adjusted person after everything he’s gone through. Not to mention that part of the reason why he was traumatized by all of that is because he used his discretion as a cop to let Kainuma go, along with buying him some groceries (since Kainuma was stealing food), after Kainuma got busted shoplifting. And Kainuma, in his “kindness”, when he did his murder spree, went after young men that looked like Maki. Yeah, so on top of having to kill his best friend, he also has some major guilt for not arresting Kainuma for the shoplifting charges back then either. He’s our other main character and pretty much without him, you have no story. Also, he’s voiced by Seki Tomokazu, who is pretty much in everything that could possibly be anime yaoi bait heaven.

And now, the rest of the team. They’re supporting members, but each one does have their moment to shine (or die) throughout the show:

Amachi: Amachi is one of the two ladies on the team. Has a kind of sixth sense, but they don’t particularly explain it all that well. Has the hots for Aoki and is empathetic. She’s quite the sweetheart and isn’t, well, you know, annoying. See, most lady characters are written by dudes that, for the most part, couldn’t write a decent lady character to save their asses. She dies in the two-part episode, Search my Body. So yeah, they kill off one of the two ladies in Section 9. Don’t worry, death is equal opportunity here in this anime.

Okabe: The grizzled, older detective that’s often partnered with Aoki. He’s married to a designer and nearly snooped on her phone to see if she was cheating on him. Luckily, she wasn’t, but for fuck’s sake, Okabe, would it hurt to ask her? Like, actually take time to go out on a date with your wife once in a while? Luckily, he IS seen going out on dates with her later on, including on one episode where the staff pretty much has an off-day going on.

Soga: A rather naive, but straight-laced fellow. Has a focus episode involving him getting a crush on this girl who not only wants to be a musician, but also heavily into body modification. Naturally, things between them don’t work out, but it’s still a decent episode. That’s his main shining moment. Throughout the show, he’s primarily seen with Okabe the more and more that Aoki hangs out with Maki, so... yeah. Still, Soga’s a decent guy.

Onogida: He’s what happens when you give Irvine Kinneas brains. Quite the flirt and movie buff, he’s an apprentice of the man that invented the MRI system. He and another dude were the ones responsible for fixing the MRI system after Maki’s friend shot it the fuck up when he went insane. Given that, he dies in the second to last episode. Hey, I did say that death was equal opportunity here.

Sendou: Ahhh, Sendou. She’s the other lady on the team and the other technician responsible for the daily care of the MRI system. However, she was not one of the ones around at the time of the Kainuma incident, so Onokida is technically her senior in that regard. Has Kokoro Film as her ringtone and just for that, I like her already. She’s currently engaged to be married, but her fiancee demanded that she quit Section 9 before marrying. Given what happens in the finale, I guess her fiancee got his wish granted.

Nagamine: Ahh, this dickwaffle. The Vice-Director of Section 9 and general pain in the fucking ass. Is always after Maki’s job and is just a slimy fucknut. Unsurprisingly, he’s a brown-nosing schmuck, but surprisingly is not involved with the bullshit surrounding Kainuma and Maki’s best friend. Nah, he’s just a power-hungry jackass.

The Chief: Maki’s boss and general backstabbing shitheel. I call him that because of the shit that happens at the end. Up until the finale, he’s a seemingly nice guy and supportive of Section 9. And when the finale happens, hoo-boy, you start to hate this fucker as much as Kainuma.

See, here’s the thing about the story of Himitsu: The Revelation: A lot of people really don’t like the MRI system since memories are pried into and shit. Therefore, they’d do anything to get rid of it. One of those dear folks that want it gone is our supposedly friendly Chief. He decides to make a deal with Kainuma. Kainuma wanted Maki to see into his memories, to which the Chief agrees to. Now, part of Kainuma’s schtick is his use of hypnosis (It’s a plot point introduced earlier when a bunch of young boys kill themselves). So Kainuma, before killing himself, creates a memory that would cause whoever watched to go under hypnosis and go batshit insane. However, both the Chief & Kainuma’s plan goes tits up when Suzuki, Maki’s best friend, is the one that watched the memories and under the hypnotic influence, went insane, destroying the MRI system the first time around. We only learn of the Chief’s involvement in it on the last episode, which ends with Nagamine and the Chief both being blown up after the MRI system is shot, again, leaving our survivor count to Maki, Aoki, Okabe, Soga, and Sendou.

Yeah, I pretty much spoiled the end of the anime for you all, but even though I did that, I do still recommend checking it out. It’s amazing how different this anime was, given that everything about this is rather realistic. All the haircolors are relatively normal, there’s no jiggling titties floating about, and there is some discussion about the moral implications of Section 9′s use of the MRI system in solving crime. Also, the violence depicted is pretty brutal, so if anything might potentially bug you, here’s your warning that it is pretty graphic and there is some blood.

...And here I go watching it simply because ALvino did the opening theme song and thinking it was going to be yaoi bait trash. *shrugs* Can’t judge a book by the cover, I suppose. I’m just relieved that the ladies don’t look moe and shit. :P

#himitsu: the revelation #in which I ramble a lot #also spoilers #massive spoilers #i pretty much ruin the end of the anime for everyone under the tag so don't go peeking in if you want to be surprised still
