| 12:00am | Hana Yori Dango J-Drama S2: Episode 03 | | | | The journey towards HanaDan-dom was a relatively simple one. My views on pure 'shipping were fairly consistent on the manga, the anime, the Tawainese drama, and the first season of the Japanese drama. Then, 2007 came.While my mind carry a gigantic banner of TsukushixTsukasa, a section of my brain... | | |
| 12:00am | Hana Yori Dango J-drama S2: Episode 02 | | | | At last, a quiet conversation transpires between Tsukushi and Tsukasa. In the confines of her room, Tsukushi initiates the contact. With trembling hands, Tsukushi delicately cradles her phone. She calls the only number listed in the directory. One ring two rings three rings four rings. The... |
| 12:00am | Hana Yori Dango J-Drama S2: Episode 01 | | | | The agonizing wait for Friday night once again threatens my semi-peaceful existence. No, I am not talking about the safe haven of weekend outings not I am talking about a want for Ryu Sasakura-esque concoctions. Relaxation and alcohol consumption are a wonderful refuge from long work days. Ah, but... |
| 12:00am | Hana no Asuka-gumi, Anime OVA | | | | How do you translate a 33-volume manga about girl gangs in Tokyo into a 48-minute OVA? Not that badly, actually. Hana no Asuka-gumi OVA is short, its silly, but it gets the point across in a way that quite true to the original.Bad Points:Right off the bat, the animation is *awful*. I mean, like, | | |
| 12:00am | Gunsmith Cats Burst Manga, Volume 1 | | | | Gunsmith Cats Burst has been picked up by Dark Horse Comics, but as I've been reading the Japanese editions, I thought this series would make a pleasant ending to no schoolgirls week, ahead of the English edition coming out in March.I also note I never reviewed the original Gunsmith Cats manga, or |
| 12:00am | Gunslinger Girl - 5 | | | | If you haven't seen Gunslinger Girl yet, or you dismissed it as lolicon gun-porn, you need to go see it now. Watch at least through the third episode, although 4 and 5 are terrific too. Yes, it looks at first glance like lolicon gun-porn, but it's actually a terrific Godardian rebuke to the Sister... | | |
| 12:00am | Goodie lists @_@ | | | | I've been reading through forums and blogs of various friends and fans about their experiences at Auckland Armageddon 2006, and to see their goodie lists makes me just want to drool XD I'll be posting mine up tomorrow, but if |
| 12:00am | Good-Bye May... Or is it? Hand Maid May: Episode 5 | | | | I just finished watching Episode 5 of Hand Maid May and the unexpected happened at the end of the show. Lets start from the beginning so you can know what happened. The episode starts with everyone in Kazuya’s room, Kei just turned Kazuya’s closet into an airship of some sort and Kazuya is impressed... | | |
| 12:00am | Gokusen Fansite/listing + YouTube Bloopers | | | | Well, I was looking on Whip of Love, a Shinkumi fansite/listing for Shin Sawada and Kumiko Yamaguchi from Gokusen. And duh, I joined it but she’s got some really interesting stuff over there. Not the usual, oh I love this pairing drabble on an outdated site. Nope, she actually keeps stuff up to... |
| 12:00am | Gokujou Seitokai - 26 [END] | | | | It's always sad to part with a series you enjoy, especially one that introduced the word Paya-Paya and the loviness of Kuon to the world. They used up all the drama and revelations in the previous episode and so the finale reverts back to the way it was - Gokujou Seitokai style! Now with added Kuon-vitamins... |
| 12:00am | Gokujou Seitokai - 25 | | | | This is the episode where EVERYTHING HAPPENS. That's right! Fighting, revelations, telepathic powers and a bunch of characters who were so forgettable that the writers decided to throw them all back in for a cameo role! All while Kanade sips tea in her leisurely mansion - thinking of how to come out... |
| 12:00am | Gokujou Seitokai - 24 | | | | Two episodes away from the finale and the script writers finally put some effort into the story! Unlike the previous escapdes with the Gokujou gang, this episode is nearly devoid of all humour, filler and worst of all - KUON. The revelations come thick and fast as President Kanade nearly topples over... |
| 12:00am | Gokujou Seitokai | | | | A zany school comedy in the vein of Doki Doki School Hours! Also being turned into a PS2 Love-sim by Konami.Gokujou Seitokai - 17Gokujou Seitokai - 18Gokujou Seitokai - 19Gokujou Seitokai - 20Gokujou Seitokai - 21Gokujou Seitokai - 22Gokujou Seitokai - 23Gokujou Seitokai - 24Gokujou Seitokai - |
| 12:00am | Gokinjo Monogatari 5 | | | | Gokinjo Monogatari is Ai Yazawa's earlier works which is main reason why I decided to check this out, after all she made that masterpiece also known as Nana. Unfortunately this is "only" good.I like the fashion setting and how things revolve around clothes. There are far too little shows that use those... | | |
| 12:00am | Going Home | | | | We're sitting around the room, with about an hour before check-out and heading to the airport. Now we're both sick (whee!) and have about another 24 hours to face until we're home. :-)Last night I started watching TV when, to my disbelieving eyes, there was yet *another* tuna related show on. |
