Anime Recoms, IV

July 5, 2007

The above pic is a wallpaper for the anime Kyou Kara Maou, which has been publicised under the following names: Kyou Kara Maoh! – Our King From Now On; Kyou Kara Maou; God Save Our King! ; and probably one or two others that I’ve missed.

Despite the overall length of the anime (it’s a killer for those who are short on time, but SO GOOD), the plot doesn’t really drag—probably thanks to the antics of certain characters (hint hint, especially the ’sexy queen’) AND the kawaii-ness of my dear, beloved Wolfram <3<3<3 (yes yes, I have a thing for that lovely golden-haired emerald-orbed little boy, and I’m not afraid to make it known! lolz.)

Though the story doesn’t seem to be BL themed in the long run, it certainly does tickle the imagination a LOT as Yuuri accidentally proposes to the young (?) prince of the demonic kingdom that Yuuri inadvertantly inherits. Many possible pairings also crop up along the way (there are also a LOT of bishonen, kyaaaa!) and a host of fanfics currently pay tribute to this light-hearted series.

I’m putting in a line for KKM because I saw the boxset in the TV room before I left for the airport today, and was (there and then) instantly hit with fond memories of watching KKM during my St Cath days (when I’d borrowed the complete version off Jocelyn after introducing her to the first few episodes. Long story, mate)…

Ah, the good old days.

It seems that Kitty’d loved it so much that she actually has been willing to fork out cash to buy it XD well, that certainly does save a few GBs of my hard drive >.>”

But anyway… KKM is a great watch. Trust me. My younger sister has great taste in anime, and has a decided dislike for most of the more blood-splattering selections or heavy-duty alternative-pairing series that I favour. If she liked KKM so much that she actually bought it after finishing Joce’s last year… it MUST be good =D

Awaiting the release of the OVA!!!
