| 12:00am | Da Capo (First Season) 1-13 | | | | I recently started re-watching the first season of Da Capo, which combined with D.C.S.S. is the longest-running renai-game-to-anime series (52 episodes). It's a lot of fun going back and watching this again--I really like the cast, and while at first Da Capo seems like an ordinary harem series, it | | |
| 12:00am | Cutey Honey Seed Manga, Volume 1 | | | | Ah, the perfect thing, to end trash week - Cutey Honey Seed. There are so many things wrong with this series I'm not sure where to begin. lolOkay, so, let's play "let's pretend." Let's pretend that Cutey Honey is nothing more than a wildly successful franchise of anime, manga, live action |
| 12:00am | Current Anime TV Ratings in Japan | | | | It's difficult to get a good idea of the ratings for most anime. The main commercial ratings sites, Video Research and Oricon, just cover the top ten, which are almost all prime-time kids' shows.There is another site that appears to collate info about shows lower in the ratings list, probably from | | |
| 12:00am | Crocinthus by Team 'Nature' | | | | You know, every time we've seen Korean galgames sincebefore 'Crocinthus' was released on this month, we've thought they were a bit rubbish - or if not rubbish, derivative, bland and boring. I was not counting on this game.At first glance, both of graphics and sound gave me a impression. When I imagine... |
| 12:00am | Crest of the Stars | | | | Crest of the Stars is one of those classic anime series I'd heard mentioned often, but somehow never made the time / room in my Netflix queue to actually sit down and watch it. Thanks to the relative lull of the winter anime season, I corrected that injustice recently, and I have to say I was pleasantly... |
| 12:00am | Crescent Love – A case study in how to push a show off the awesome scale | | | | Okay, usually I try to avoid shows with Crescent or Love in the title because they're usually derivative trash that I've seen before. Now, I don't mind trash and I don't mind derivative, but the combination is a little much. I've stated before that all I wanted in an anime is a good story and |
| 12:00am | Crayotic Knows Everything: Strawberry Marshmallow vol.1 (and a rant) | | | | I picked up volume 1 of Strawberry Marshmallow today, and being an overbearing fanboy dick, naturally I decided to compare various chapters of it to the Ichigo Marshimaro scanlations.From what I can tell, it does look like "fanservice" is still all a go, so that's one worry hopefully taken care |
| 12:00am | Crayotic Knows Everything: Coyote Ragtime | | | | A new installment to blow out your ass.Last time we discovered conclusive evidence that Zero no Tsukaima will fail unless it plays the racial card; this week we're moving away from that and are going to take an in-depth look at one of the critically panned series of the season. That being Coyote | | |
| 12:00am | Coyote Ragtime Show, Manga and Anime | | | | I liked the anime for Coyote Ragtime Show immediately. Right from the first momentsthe energy, the devil-may-care pirates in space, the absurd levels of violence, and Angelica's obsession with eating, totally did it for me.If only, I thought, there was an evil, psychotic older woman with a | | |
| 12:00am | Contest on "Worldshaking" Fanfic | | | | I don't usually post "Worldshaking" Fanfic updates here, but I want this one to get some response, so here we go:This month I am running the first-ever WSF contest! My website has been essentially the same since 1997 when I first started writing fanfic. I want to update the look of WSF, so I'm |
| 12:00am | Coming Soon... | | | | Just added placeholders on the right hand menu to give an idea of some upcoming sections/articles that you can expect before this week is out. I think almost all of them are things that I've been looking for online but have been unable to find due to the complete lack of xxxHolic sites out there | | |
| 12:00am | Combo Continue - Haruhi Threesome | | | | There really is no coherent intro to go with a Lucky Star episode to be honest. I mean, with most other anime I can talk about what happened last time, or in what direction it's headed, or perhaps make a lame joke based on the content, but Lucky Starcan you imagine an intro based on the content?I'm not... | | |
| 12:00am | Codename: ONENESS | | | | Is this how drunks sound like? XD[audio:ONENESS.mp3]Will it scare you if I say that the seventeen participants in this project were never coerced nor bullied to join? Yes, we pledged our support enthusiastically and willingly. Hee. Everyone needs a hobby.Go ahead, laugh, cry, cringe, applaud. |
| 12:00am | Code Geass Preview – Mecha with a Mind-bending Twi... | | | | Playing God, one of the favourite themes in anime this season. I have written a preview of Death Note, the story of a student bestowed with the power to kill just by writing the person's name on a magical notebook. Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion, takes on a slightly different approach and | | |
| 12:00am | Code Geass Episode 13 | | | | Lelouch steels himself and soldiers on despite the possibility of hurting those close to him in the near future. He leads his Order of the Black Knights to defend a boat carrying General Katase, leader of the Japanese Liberation Front. But on the other side of the law, Suzaku has his loyalty tested | | |
