Ahbonk Recommends Tokyo Magnitude 8.0

tokyo-magnitude-8-0-540x321

All I can say is this: It is MORE than just a story of an earthquake hitting Tokyo. Was pleasantly surprised with the entire show.

Don’t worry, it’s still just a regular earthquake hitting Tokyo, with the setting emulating the findings of real-life researchers. You’ll just know what I mean when you watch it.

Powerful storytelling. Powerful character build-up. Powerful visuals. Definitely within my Top 5 this year. Possibly the best even? As many anime blog commenters attested, it’s on its way to becoming a classic.

Cheers to Bones for this one.

      http://ahbonknet.easyonlygames.com/?p=3

      At the bottom just above the footer, you can see a link to go to the next day of travel. Thanks for reading again!

      Thank you so much!
      I’m so glad to read your diary and see my dad.
      I print it out :D

    • ahbonk says:

      No probs, it’s all worth the trouble if a reader wants to print the pages out ;)

      By the way, there were 2 dads whom we met during the Hiroshima trip, Hideyuki-sensei and Uncle Omar. Which one is yours?

    • dgz says:

      Hide—- is. He passed away.
      Your diary told me what I didn’t know about him.
      So it is so valuable. Thanks.

    Yes I agree this is a great series!

    Pity about Bakemonogatari and its production problems though, it was really getting interesting.

    • ahbonk says:

      Hehe sry Fabian, didn’t want to spoil anyone with that ;)

      Yea even Shaft is hit hard… but I still love the show, even if it’s just Red and Black screens alternating with voices
