He soon discovers the girl's name is Furukawa Nagisa and that she exclaims things she likes in order to motivate herself. Nagisa claims they are now friends, but Tomoya walks away passing the encounter off as nothing.

Angel Beats!



Rating: 10/10
 
People who have died with regrets are sent to a system resembling a school. They are supposed to be living their life every day at the school and have no regrets to be reincarnated.

A few students forms a group due to not wanting to reincarnate. This is due to the fear of not knowing what they will reincarnate to or the fear of forgetting their friends. Soon, the main character enters the world.

The main character supposedly is not supposed to be there but due to amnesia, he was sent into the system. The Student Council President, codename "Angel" was mistaken for a programme that keeps law and order within the system.

Not long after, everyone realises that she was just another person with regrets and was also sent into the system. Her god-like abilities was created by the programme, "Angel Player", that allows one to alter the system in any way they would like.

Soon, "Shadows" started appearing that turn the people into NPCs and only those with strong willpower can come back. The leader of the group and a few members start to track down the source, "Angel Player" used by another person.

After the crisis was over, only 5 people remain due to evacuating the area through reincarnation. Slowly, it was left with the main character and "Angel". The main character wanted to stay with the "Angel" in the system forever as he loves her but she said that she couldn't.

The reason of regret was caused by not being able to say "thank you" to the person who donated his heart to her when she was alive. That person was the main character. Both of them reincarnated after that and the main character promised to find her.

Official Summary:
Otonashi awakens only to learn he is dead. A rifle-toting girl named Yuri explains that they are in the afterlife, and Otonashi realizes the only thing he can remember about himself is his name. Yuri tells him that she leads the Shinda Sekai Sensen (Afterlife Battlefront) and wages war against a girl named Tenshi. Unable to believe Yuri's claims that Tenshi is evil, Otonashi attempts to speak with her, but the encounter doesn't go as he intended.

Otonashi decides to join the SSS and battle Tenshi, but he finds himself oddly drawn to her. While trying to regain his memories and understand Tenshi, he gradually unravels the mysteries of the afterlife.

Kaichou wa Maid-sama!



Rating: 8/10


This show is about the Student Council President of the school, Ayuzawa Misaki, balancing her work with her studies. If it were only that, she would have no problem at all. The thing is... she works at a maid cafe. She had no choice as she needed the high salary to cover her family's expenses and allow her mother to rest instead of taking two shifts in her job. Soon, the most popular guy in the school, Takumi Usui, finds out her secret. Doesn't that mean her role as the Student Council President is in trouble?!?!?!

Official Summary:
Seika High School, once an all-boys school notorious for its wild students and for generally being a terrifying place for girls, has recently become a co-ed school. With the female population still a minority and living in fear of the over-the-top antics of the males, Misaki Ayuzawa takes it into her own hands to reform the school and allow the girls to feel safe in the rough environment.

Training, studying and even becoming the first female student council president of the school, Misaki has gained a reputation among the male students body as an uptight boy-hating dictator and as a shining hope for the teachers and fellow female students. However, despite her tough-as-nails appearance, she secretly works part-time at a maid cafe in order to support her family. Unfortunately, her hard-earned reputation is threatened when the popular, attractive, and somewhat impassive Usui Takumi takes an interest in her after discovering her in a maid uniform after school.

Fortunately, he discovers that the special power that he holds within him is the ultimate ability that all Guze no Tomogora wants, the ability to regain all power of existence used on that day at midnight. Together with Shana, they began hunting for the "Guze no Tomogara".

The first two seasons are quite interesting, and at the end of the second season, Yuuji disappears. In the third season, Yuuji reappears as a bad guy. But, the third season is relatively more boring than the first two.

Official Summary:
He had thought his normal days would last forever, until they were ended abruptly by an encounter with a girl with red hair and eyes. He named her Shana.

Not long after he enters high school, Sakai Yuji’s normal days come to an end. He sees something bizarre on his way home: people are frozen in a strange fire, and a monster that looks like a large doll is attacking them. Just when he's about to be killed, a girl in a dark cloak wielding a large sword appears, and slices the monster in half. Although Yuji survives the strange encounter, the girl informs him of a desolate truth: " 'You' don't exist anymore."

She calls herself a Flame Haze who hunts "Guze no Tomogara"; intruders from another world. She explains to him that he is a "Torch", a substitute of Yuji whose “existence” has already been devoured. She also told him that he is a special Torch, "Mystes", which contains a precious item in it. When he looks at his chest, he sees within himself a faint flame, just as she said.

It is in this way that his eternal struggle alongside the girl begins.

Seitokai No Ichizon



Rating: 10/10
 
2 seasons
Seitokai no Ichizon
Seitokai no ichizon Lv 2

A comedy anime about a Student Council with the main character, Sugisaki Ken, treating it as his harem. The members of the Student Council is elected through a popularity vote, with an exception of one who has the top grades in the school. For the sake of entering the Student Council, Ken studied really hard and made it in. Upon entering the Student Council Room, the first thing he did was confess his love to all four girls in the room.

In the second season, 2 new characters are introduced, Sugisaki's little sister and childhood friend. There is also a change in art and voice characters (which I don't really like). But once again, it is another season filled with comedy.

Official Summary:
The members of the student council of Hekiyou Gakuen are chosen by a popularity vote. As a result, all the members are cute girls except for Sugisaki Ken, who studied hard to enter the council. The story features the endless chattering of the members full of parodies of "The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya", "Dragon Ball", "Death Note", etc.
