Cardfight vanguard wiki Produced by Studio Bones, GoSick takes place in the fictional country of Sauville during 1924. After a student transfers into the school, he meets a strange girl named Victorique. She skips class all the time and would prefer to read books and solve local mysteries. Becoming fast friends, the pair make their way around town solving cases and befriending those in the area. It’ll premiere this Friday at 10am Pacific for viewers in North and South America, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland, Iceland, the Netherlands, the Middle East, Africa, Malaysia, the Philippines, Brazil and Portugal. Additionally, viewers in the UK and Ireland who have a paid membership will also have access which at least falls in the ‘better than nothing’ category if you really wanted to watch this series from Europe. So that’s all I have for now. I couldn’t care less about Cardfight Vanguard but it seems like everywhere I go someone is talking about how amazing GoSick is so I’m pretty curious to check this one out. Either of these series look decent to you.
First to be announced today is new card fighting series, Cardfight Vanguard. Animated by TMS Entertainment and co-created by YuGiOh mangaka, Akira Ito and Bushiroad founder Takaki Kitani; the series follows a middle schooler who gets involved with a brand new, intergalactic card game. Using the card he was given as a child, Aichi is pulled into the game of Vanguard and strives to be the very best at it (this is the point where you can’t actually see me rolling my eyes but trust me, it’s happening). The series will begin streaming in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom and Ireland on January 7th starting at 4:30pm Pacific.
At the center of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya lies a question asked by everyone from the Wachowski brothers to a small platoon of science fiction writers and nearly every disaffected teenager in America: "What if the world really did revolve around you?" It isn't a question unknown in the anime world; Paranoia Agent and Lain brushed up against the question and other shows have tackled the subject head-on with varying degrees of success (does anyone remember Interlude?). The key to Haruhi's success is to approach the question with intelligence and wrap its musings in a conventional (if originally nonlinear) entertainment that doesn't skimp on humor, style, or characterization. That something can meld paranormal stereotypes, moe, romantic comedy and semi-hard science fiction into one perfectly seamless whole may be a difficult proposition to sell to skeptics, but that's exactly what Haruhi does.
