You know what the problem with Bartender is? The story is so, so cheesy. Well, it’s a healing anime after all, but it is overdoing it a little bit. Aria at least has the “Embarassing remarks are not allowed!”-comment indicating that the creators are aware of their own cheesiness, but with Bartender, it seems to be different. Weird to see that the manga doesn’t appear as cheesy.
I was so surprised that I haven’t blogged about episode 1 yet! This great series deserves a better treatment *hrr hrr*
I have to lose some words on the manga: After reading the first chapter, I realized how unsatisfying this season actually is to me. The storyline of the manga is so much better than the one of episode 1! Raaaah! Maybe I should try more series? Perhaps there is a surprise out there for me. Code Geass or Kanon or something? *hrr*
Back to the Bartender manga: At least he didn’t destroy his own Eden hall sculpture (I found that so cheesy *ugh*) but another company’s ice sculpture *hrr hrr* The story of the manga flowed so much better and was much more natural. But of course possibilities of anime contribute to the atmosphere of the series, so the healing effect of the anime is much stronger of course.
