Winter 2011 Season Top releases

Yeah, I made this forum even though I'll probably be the only one posting QQ

Genre: Mystery

1. Kore Wa Zombie Desu ka?

Synopsis: Ayumu Aikawa is a zombie, resurrected by a necromancer named Eucliwood Hellscythe after being killed by a serial killer. As he tries to make the best of his undead life, he encounters a masō-shōjo named Haruna and inadvertently takes her magic powers, being forced to become a masō-shōjo in the process.

This was a surprise. I had not expected anything to come close to being as good as GOSICK, and I was wrong. There is a good reason this is so far joint first with GOSICK; the plot is pretty original, and the humour is unique too. It never uses the clichéd punchlines one would expect from a comedy anime. The characters are hilarious.



Genre: Comedy

2. GOSICK

Synopsis: Set in a fictional European country in 1924, a Japanese exchange student meets a mysterious, brilliant girl who only leaves the library to sleep. Her brother, a policeman, relies on her mind to solve difficult mysteries, several of which draw her away from the library.

Well well, I had already read the light novels so I expected this to top my list before the first episode came out, and I wasn't disappointed. Usually, anime adaptations of popular light novels turn out to be a major disappointment as they change the plot significantly and use the wrong voice actors.
OK, so Victorique's voice isn't like an old woman's as described in the novel, but nonetheless, I find that the voice fits her really well in the anime. They made Kazuya's voice slightly annoying, but I can overlook that. The character of Kazuya's friend, Avril, has been completely omitted from the anime. I didn't her anyway so I'm OK with that too.
So far, I'm impressed by the show's start.





UPDATE: After watching episode 3, I have concluded that GOSICK has skipped too much of the story. The novel told the entire story in a much more exciting way (the events on the ship 10 years before).

More to come...
