78 - Mahou Shoujo

With the magical girl genre, it's all about the transformation scenes and flashy magic spells and plot advancements!!!

In Nanatsuiro Drops, plot advancements are present, though there isn't much flashy magic spells and totally no transformation scenes. But being a plot-based person, as long as the plot's good, it's a good anime to me (though the art, characters has to be at the very least decent).

Edit:
Ok, transformation is present, but only in the middle of the story and only shown o.n.c.e. Before that, she was wearing an outfit her mother sent (her mother was a magical girl in the past, before marrying her father and quit being a magical girl, thus the outfit). Somewhat acceptable number of spells in the show.

On another note, Neo Angelic Abyss ~Second Age~, which ended last week was a really annoyance. Showing Angelique wielding a sword and fighting in the opening song, it makes viewers expect her to kick enemy asses, but no. After learning some swordplay from a ship captain on a ship, the only time she uses her sword is during the last episode and for only 1. attack. >.<
The attack pierces the last boss and her proceeds to purify him... Z_Z That's it, I don't want to say anymore about this...

On other stuff, today's the debut of Toradora on Central!!! Yay!!! After reading the 12 chapters on Onemanga, I'm really looking forward to the show today. ^_^ Tomorrow is Skip Beat. Looking forward to that as well, though not as much as Toradora ^_^
