BTW, a fellow told me he was trying to comment on my blog, and while he had the captcha, it wasn't clear to him that he needed a mee.nu account. Maybe that should be made a little more explicit.

I was intrigued by the visuals for the Notice Me AMV, so I looked it up. It's a series called Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun from 2014, and it's really quite good.
Unfortunately the OP got pulled down from Youtube, so you get this mashup instead.
If you want to know what the story is about, well, it's this:
It's one of those shows that could be enjoyable or could totally fall flat, depending on whether the humour clicks with you.
So far I'm loving it.
Update: 12 episodes was just the right length, and the ending was handled well. Recommended if you in the mood for that sort of fluffy romantic comedy.

I very much enjoyed Nozaki-kun. Sometimes the "hero is as thick as two planks" stories get up my nose, but his worked out.

My favourite part is the sleep-over at Nozaki's flat. Honestly, I even learned to deal with Seo over time. Unfortunately, the manga is the usual endless affair.

One of the reasons I like it is that it takes about five minutes for our infatuated airhead heroine to become the only sane woman.

If you had told me this morning that when I got home from work, I'd wind up watching an AMV using footage from K-On! and music by ELO, I'd just stare at you blankly.
Mostly because I'd be wondering how you got into Pond Central, but that's besides the point.
Catgirls: I recognize Welcome To The NHK, one of the Monogatari series, Cat Planet Cuties, Chi's Sweet Home, Ouran High School Host Club, Hellsing Ultimate (yes, really), K-On!, Strike Witches, Nichijou, Soul Eater, that one recent Macross show, and Kyouran Kazoku Nikki. There's a few I didn't recognize, but I think that's most of them.
Which scares the hell out of me.

Man, I have no one else to talk about the show with, and it's so good!
Anyway, trying not to spoil things for anyone that didn't see it, but noticed that Andrew said a few episodes back that Diana had lost her magic at a young age and worked hard to recover it, and we also found she had a secret Chariot card in a box she seemed to value? I don't think that's a coincidence.

Go back and watch the original movie. Check out who's in the audience a couple of rows back from little Akko...

I noticed that too. I wonder if they were planning to develop it in a planned series?

Either they planned it from the beginning (at least some of it) or someone on the production staff is the Einstein of retcon.

It's been years since I saw the original movie, never noticed that detail. Will have to rewatch. They did retcon a few things from what I recall, like how Akko found the Shiny Rod in the first place. There's also no mention in the show of the Rod's ability to transmit power beyond the range of the philosopher's stone, which was central to the plot in the second movie. Which should be significant given the plot of the series. Everyone recognizes the Rod as Shiny Chariot's but none of the teachers seem interested in the various powers it has, which is odd.

Yes, there's some things in the original movie that don't quite mesh, and some things that seem to have been left unsaid in the TV series.
Still great, though.
