Introduction

Let me start with a little story. When I first started watching anime seriously, I heard about a series called Ouran Highschool Host Club. At first, I wasn't interested. I mean, come on, it seemed so stupid and looked like it lacked any sort of lasting appeal for me. Still, I was intrigued and I decided to read some of the more positive reviews of it, still not entirely convinced by the posts I read.

But, despite my misgivings, I gave it a try, and surprisingly, I found that I really enjoyed it. In fact, I didn't end up finishing the series once, but three times, over the course of three years. Now, I use it as a benchmark for all other romantic comedy anime series I watch now. 

And then came Highschool DxD. Once again, I initially brushed it off as just another harem series with nothing new to offer. But, remembering the moral of my initial viewing of Ouran Highschool Host Club, I gave it a try as well, and found that I really enjoyed it. Once again, I was proven wrong.

I devoured all of the episodes within a week, and I even began reading the light novels, eager for more contact. I even began writing fanfiction about it, which most of you probably read initially before coming to this blog, so you know exactly how much I enjoy that series. 

It just goes to show, you can never tell a great series just from a few screenshots and a description. So, that's why I created this blog, to try and shed light on some series that I think people should really give a shot.
