Hi I'm Dranzerstorm
You may remember me as a regular contestant on the caption battle contest.
Welcome to Retro Retrospective, my world dedicated to the old guard of the Otaku world; expect some reviews of the old & obscure, and in-depth geeky knowledge with the occasional top ten and I now have a logo.

Little info about me
Well I'm British and I'm in to all things animated and nostalgia.
I've grown up with every cartoon going and have watched hundreds of anime.
Oh and to answer a question I was asked once, no I don't wear glasses in real life, I would wear Loke's sunglasses though.

Monthly Girls Nozaki-Kun Review

Definitely the best anime I watched last year.

Sakura has a crush on Nozaki and goes in for a love confession only for Nozaki to mistake her as a fan and gives her an autograph, when she ends up Nozaki's home following another misunderstanding it's discovered that Nozaki is a famed Shojo manga artist; eager to learn more, Sakura becomes Nozaki's assistant and quickly learns more about how Nozaki works and the many assistants and inspirations that revolve around him.
This is one of the best anime to watch for character study, each character you think follows one trope but then immediately goes a different way, it really deconstructs the way Shojo is written and the way it molds it's characters, it's an absolute joy to watch and extremely funny, all this well led by the two leads having some really good chemistry.
The only thing that lets it down is the dub, it's typical Funimation, it's not bad, just uninspiring.
Final Verdict: If you ever needed inspiration in writing a story, then this is the perfect anime to inspire you to create the right characters.
