FIRST IMPRESSION: HAPPY SUGAR LIFE

Happy sugar life is a drama , horror anime from studio Ezo'la , it follows a high-schooler Matsuzaka Satou who is known for dating and sleeping with anyone, basically she is too easy. But this lifestyle of hers ends when she falls in love with a young girl Shio , and she would do anything if it means to able to live with her happily forever. And anything also includes killing , yup we have a yandere on our hands boys. So it goes without saying that if you feel uncomfortable watching a yandere going about her business or watching a high-schooler love a grade schooler , you might want to skip this one , but still I would atleast recommend everyone of you to give the first episode a watch as both these aspects are not that prominent ( atleast in the first episode). For everyone else it's straight up a must watch. The moment I started watching the episode , the opening gripped me with its beautiful music and amazing visuals. The animations and writing are perfect and fit the tone of the show perfectly. The soundtrack accustomes all the scenes very well. 

The show focusses heavily on the definition of "love" and what it means for the various characters , the first episode was a rollercoaster , it starts of as this mellow , charming show about love and then just goes crazy as we discover how messed up some of the characters are and that their adorable faces were just a front for their messed up desires. It shows the true faces of people who follow and desire false definitions of love , it is a very dark show that is not for the light-hearted as the show will become more and more messed up and it's dark themes will continue to grow in the future episodes.

So , if you are intrigued by this kind of a show , I highly recommend you to check out this anime. If you are not sure about it , give the first episode a watch and you will definitely realise if this show is for you or not. In my opinion this is a must watch and I feel everyone should give it a chance , as for me I will surely follow this anime weekly and I consider it to be a candidate for the anime of the season.

Thank you everyone for reading , follow me on twitter @allaboutanimee for regular anime and manga recommendations , share the blog if possible and have a nice day.

Today we will be taking a look at all the manga that Taishi Tsutsui has worked on , I will be talking about each one of them and comparing them as to showcase the journey that the mangaka has been through for the past decade. We will be starting with his first ever manga , Esprit. Esprit is a fantasy , action manga from Taishi Tsutsui , it is set in a world where numerous islands are called "homes" and people of a particular home have little to no knowledge about other homes. These homes are discovered and are kept in check by the agents of the "ocean affairs agency" , from here on I will be referring to these agents as OA agents (ocean affairs agents).
