| 10:40pm | Toradora! Episode 2 & 3 | | | | Gomen, gomen! I’ve been neglecting this blog lately, but I’m really busy with Uni and Japanese lessons right now and I barely have time to sit down, watch some anime and blog about it. I’m trying to catch up (I finished Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu, so I’ll write a review as soon... | | |
| 10:39pm | CLANNAD: After Story - Episode 02 | | | | Mai’s worried about Sunohara having no plans for the future, so Sunohara and Tomoya hatch a plan to trick Mai into thinking that Sunohara has a girlfriend. Mai is still hanging around after the baseball game since she’s worried about Sunohara’s future and the fact that he doesn’t... | | |
| 10:32pm | Angel Diary Volume 07 - Thoughts & Impressions | | | | Review copy kindly provided by Yen Press About the Mangaka Kara is the name of a manwha-ga-duo: Yoon-Gyeong Kim & Eun-Sook Jeong. And to quote them, their name comes from the Hebrew word for ‘to invite’. Kim and Jeong first met each other when they both were in their fourth year of university,... |
| 10:17pm | CLANNAD ~AFTER STORY~ - 03 |  | | | Summary:Since Mei doesn't immediately recognize her and only finds her familiar-looking, Sanae introduces herself as 17-year-old Isogai Sanako. | | |
| 10:16pm | Shikabane Hime: Aka - Episode 2 | | | | While I referred to the first episode of Shikabane Hime as a jigsaw puzzle that had to be put together without the picture on the box, perhaps I should have looked at it from a more simplistic angle and simply labelled it as being a case of style over substance. Thankfully, episode two actually manages... | | |
| 10:09pm | Yozakura Quartet - 03 |  | | | This week consists of doggy abuse, although I only cry when something bad happens to a kitty. The episode focuses on Hime who is the town leader because she took over her grandma’s position after she died. Due to her being really young she’s had a tough life because the old farts didn’t... | | |
| 9:59pm | Autumn/Fall Anime: Nodame Cantabile: Paris Chapter, Tytania, Kurozuka, Skip Beat, Mouryou no Hako | | | | My 5th and last of these first impression posts. While I haven’t covered everything, I’ve seen most of the worthwhile shows. Only Michiko no Hatchin left, which I’ll be blogging anyway!Gundam 00 Season 2, Toradora, Hyakko, Akane iro ni somaru sakuClannad After Story, Eve no Jikan, Casshern... | | |
| 9:51pm | Bat Storm: Rosario + Vampire Now Censored Everywhere |  | | | A sad day for pantsu vampire fans; Pantsu + Vampire viewers report that even the formerly untouched Tokyo MX broadcast version now has the unwelcome addition of pantsu obscuring bats, previously only seen on puritanical stations, though with nowhere the near the numbers seen elsewhere. The panchira... | | |
| 9:37pm | Yozakura Quartet - Episode 2 | | | | I marked out the opening episode of Yozakura Quartet as having some potential, which is usually the kind of proclamation that sends a series into a nosedive faster than you can say "and at the end they all take up knitting". Thankfully, this series saw fit not to take that nosedive in quality quite... | | |
| 9:36pm | Mouryou no Haku - FROM OUT OF NOWHERE | | | | I didn’t know anythign about this show or even that it was being made by Madhouse until I pressed play. I had almost not picked it up due to overload this season. I’m glad I did.This is easily one of the top 5 best opening episodes of an anime I’ve ever seen, if not the |
| 9:35pm | Personal History of Drawing | | | | Something I put together because a friend did it a while back. 1995 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 |
| 9:33pm | Casshern Sins 02 |  | | | Casshern Sins is 5 kinds of oldskool, except more trippy and less oldskool if that makes any sense. And yes, it has the occasionally horrible writing that goes with most oldskool productions. But it has more over-analyzable allusion-y goodness this episode. Instead of references to just one classic... | | |
| 9:03pm | CLANNAD After Story 03: Saishuu Heiki Imouto |  | | | “Isogai Sanako, jyunanasai desu~~!” キタ━━━(゜∀゜)━ ━!!!!! *faints* They really did it! I knew they couldn’t let such an awesome chance slip past by. It just wouldn’t be Kyo Ani otherwise. However, this ends up being a Mei-focused episode, despite the facade... | | |
| 8:47pm | Happy! has come to an end…. *SHOCKU* | | | | I know this show is meant to be a 女性(jousei, or ladies) short variety show, but Perfume’s antics are far too amusing. Hence I skip all the reviews, and proceed to the last episode. It’s the funniest of Happy! episode ever. Scene 1: You have eaten your boyfriend’s favourite pudding... |
| 8:43pm | Gundam Witches | | | | The characters of Gundam 00 inexplicably Strike Witchified. It’s not clear what course of events could have led to this (and giant robots are scarcely any more credible than leg mounted propellers), but the results are interesting. | | |
