New Beginnings!

While the manga is still running, Fairy Tail anime is over, for now. This isn't the first time that FT has ended and come back with an amazing sequel and it's happening again. A few months ago, Mashima confirmed that a new FT series was in the works, continuing off from the year long disbandment of the guild following the Tartaros Arc. Though I'm usually up to date with everything FT, I only just found out, but that doesn't make my excitement any less intense. In fact, it may be more intense than most anime lovers since I read the manga and just so happen to know what this anime has in store for us.
There is also so much hype since the announcement of the new seasons of AoT/SnK and Blue Exorcist. Now, as Snk followed the plot of the manga, I kept up with the first season of the anime adaptation and will continue doing so for the next season. Blue Exorcist, on the other hand, completely strayed off the original plot of the manga and skipped arcs I believe were crucial to the bigger plot in the long run. The anime strayed off after the first few episodes so I refused to continue watching, but was told how the first season ended and couldn't have been more upset. It was rushed and events which have not even taken place, events I am still watching unfold, ocurred. It really irked me, but hopefully, this new series will start from the beginning and follow the manga story-line, like they did with the Fullmetal Alchemist reboot FMA: Brotherhood. So I will give this one a chance when it comes out.
The dilemma I'm faced with, though, is not having any new episodes of anime to watch each week. Almost every single one of my shows has ended or are on a break. So I have decided to take on the recommendations of some trusted friends and anime lovers and so far have decided on three anime to watch over the summer.
Beelzebub, Kuroko no Basuke and Haikyuu. The last two are sport anime and being a huge basketball fan, its only natural that I like them. Beelzebub, on the other hand, is an anime about a boy in high school who somehow finds himself being the nanny to the devil's son and heir. This sounds similar to one of my favourite manhwa series which recently came to an end, Soul Cartel. They seem to share some similar qualities, such as the fact that Soul Cartel also had an arch-devil that went by the name of Beelzebub but he was fully grown and absolutely chaotic and downright evil, but something about that made him likeable- as long as he wasn't after my favourite characters, which coincidentally, he almost always was. This made for some scary moments concerning the character but did not change my view of the manhwa. Hopefully the Beelzebub manga/anime will have me hooked just the same.
Even with all the catching up I have to do with my fantasy shows and my ongoing and ever-growing reading list, I will still choose to add more anime to my list, simply because I can't help it. Call it lack of self control but there are some things which I just can't resist.
If you have any more reccomendations for me or just comments about these manga/anime, feel free to drop a comment or go to the forum page and start a discussion on it. Until then, see you soon.
[On another note, I'm almost at 100 viewers and though that's small, I can't help but be excited. Thanks for reading. Like, share and subscribe :) ]
