orc stain #7 | Thunderscorpion's comic blog

Hi Thunderscorpion here!, that’s right I’m still reviewing even though it’s been awhile it’s hard for me to get the time to concentrate on making one of these reviews, but I’ve finally got one done. The anime I’ve finished watching since my last review are “Mysterious Girlfriend X” and “Sankarea”. Mysterious Girlfriend X is one of the grossest anime I’ve seen in a while because of the saliva aspect of the story. I wasn’t sure whether or not I was supposed to be aroused or repulsed by it. Having said that I think it was a very nice anime and it was done in a very tasteful way for the most part; also Urabe is supper cute. Next “Sankarea” what can I say I love zombies and this anime is a zombie romance that really works, although the whole decomposing thing with Rea was off-putting the drama was sold. I just hope they kill her father at some point. Both of these anime’s need second seasons and I hold them firmly at ( 8 out of 10 ) well that’s it for what I’ve been watching, now on to the reviews and since I probably won’t make a new set of reviews untill after Christmas I’d like to wish you all a Merry Christmas!
