| 7:19am | Seikai no Monshou - 05 | | | | One feature of anime that I’m glad has mostly disappeared over the past ten years is the obligatory summary of the previous episode. This episode was one of those examples in which this got taken too far as it spent its first five minutes recapping what happened in the previous episode. The... |

| 4:51am | Hanamaru Kindergarten 05 |  | | | Total lack of Yamamoto-sensei in this episode makes me sad. ;_; Koume kinda made up for it though.

| 12:45am | Negima! 278 | | | | Rakan-san! It’s been a while! But damn, it doesn’t look too good for him too! As expected from Rakan, even knowing a truth that would bring absolute despair to anyone doesn’t faze him at all. Wow, he actually managed to lay the smackdown on Fate despite the overwhelming odds.... |
| 10:46pm | Matataku |  | | | Matataku, 瞬く, is an artist few will be familiar with, much to their detriment if they happen to like his idiosyncratic choice of subject matter and essential grasp of the importance of cats.Visit the article to see the rest of the images in this gallery post |
| 10:00pm | 3 Episode Taste Test: Seikon no Qwaser (The Qwaser of Stigmata) | | | | When one’s premise is a magical fuel present only in breast milk and requires young children to extract this via the most obvious method available, having an censored version available on all but the most liberal of television channels seems counter-productive. The uncensored version fills in a... |
| 9:46pm | The common theme of anime songs |  | | | One (of many) things about anime that’s always stood out to me since I became a fan is the songs. No matter what the nature of the anime in question is, with relatively few exceptions, the majority of anime opening and ending songs, more often than not, have common themesBack in my early days of... |
| 9:06pm | Hanamaru Youchien - 05 | | | | A Neon Genesis Evangelion reference. I see what you did there, Gainax. Seriously though, I’m a big fan of parodies, but only a specific kind of them. I love the kind of parodies that deconstruct a genre or stereotype, making them look completely ridiculous with their own logic. Random reference... |
