Anime & Manga Review : Kobato

Written by: Clamp

Directed by:  Mitsuyuki Masuhara

Kobato is a sweet, perky, cute girl but also extremely naive about the world around her. She has a "mission" to fill her mysterious bottle with people's hearts she heals so her wish to go to a certain place can be granted. However, the restriction is that she is not allowed to fall in love with any person whose heart she heals. As Kobato attempts to fulfill her mission, she is accompanied by Ioryogi, a spirit in the form of a dog plushie. Because Ioryogi is responsible for a punishment that has been applied to him and his friends from the spiritual world, he must guide Kobato and ensure that she succeeds her mission and his friends might return to their true form.

Anime & Manga Review: Guilty Crown

Mangaka: Hiroyuki Yoshino

Directed by: Tetsuro Araki


On Christmas Eve, 2029, the unidentified "Apocalypse Virus" spreads and plunges Japan into a state of emergency in a chaos known as the "Lost Christmas" incident. An international organization known as the GHQ intervenes with martial laws and restores order to Japan at the cost of its independence.
Ten years later in 2039, Shu Ouma, a 17-year-old high school student who keeps to himself in school, meets Inori Yuzuriha, the lead singer for Egoist,while visiting one of his favorite places on his way home from school. Shu is a big fan of Inori, a singer who has taken the Internet world by storm. However, he also discovers the other side of her, which is that she is a member of "Undertakers", a resistance group that aims to liberate Japan from the GHQ. Shu starts taking part in the actions of "Undertaker-(funeral parlor)" and the "king's mark" appears on his right hand after the Void Genome in his pocket was shot by a GHQ Endlave. This "mark" bestows on him the power to reach inside another person's heart and extract and materialize a weapon or item from it. The anime tells the story of Shu's reluctant involvement with the Undertakers and the hardship involving the battles they fight and the lost truth of Shu's past.

Romaji Version
Himo wo toite mieta kokoro no oku
Dareka no tame ni jibun wo kizutsuke
Chiisana kono te de mamoreru you
Tsuyoku tsuyoku negau hoshi no nagareru yoru ni

Yozora ni suikomareru ikusen no matataki
Itsuka anata ni todoke ni yukemasu youni

Kono uta ni noseru ne egao no tane wo
Itsuka anata ga hana wo sakasemasu youni

Yozora ni uta wo nosete chiisana mahou wo kakeru
Zutto hitori de kurushimanai de hoshii no

Hoshizora wo miagete negai goto wo suru ne
Itsuka mabayui egao sakimasu youni

Hoshizora wo miagete negai goto wo suru ne
Itsuka mabayui egao sakimasu youni


English Translation

Unleash the rope, see the inner heart
for whom am I hurting myself
with this little hand I want to protect
and wish strongly upon a falling star

Thousands of twinkling stars swallowed by the night sky

I hope one day I'll be able to give this to you
This song that would bring a smile to that certain someone
I hope one day you can make the flower bloom

I send my song into the night sky, with a little magic
I don’t want to be alone in sadness forever

I look up at the starry night and make a wish
that someday a bright smile will be drawn

I look up at the starry night and make a wish
that someday a bright smile will be drawn
