| 9:50am | Higurashi no Naku Koro (Arcs 1 & 2) |  | | | The watchings of yesterday, 07/08/09. (Just pointing out quick, today’s 7, 8, 9! I love dates like that.) Started Higurashi no Naku Koro. Whoever wrote those stories are masters of suspense. Start out cheery and spiral into a sitting on the edge of your seat conclusion. I completed the first two... | | |
| 1:54pm | Last of Blue Gender | | | | The watchings of yesterday, 07/08/08. Reached the end of Blue Gender at last. Quality sort of dipped downwards towards the end, probably because it started going into more cloak and dagger things, but then it went up again and made for an overall good watch. I’d been almost sure there would be... |
| 9:29am | Sola/Start of Blue Gender | | | | The watchings of yesterday, 08/07/07. Watched Sola yesterday. First thing of interest about the show is the title. First there’s the fact that apparently l in romanji takes on the r sound, giving us sora, or sky, which is intricately linked to the action of the story. Then there’s also sola... | | |
| 1:45pm | End of Read or Die | | | | The watchings of yesterday, 08/07/06. Finished Read or Die at last. Good show. Drake showed up again to stay this time, and he had a good comeback, rescuing everyone from the pile of burning books and certain capture. And then (eventually) Readman gets sharp again, and starts doing some fun tricks with... |
| 10:17am | More Read or Die | | | | The watchings of yesterday, 07/08/05. Didn’t get much time to watch anime yesterday, but what watching I did was more Read or Die. Some more pretty cool stuff. The challenges Nenene were having with writing were something I could sympathize with well. And then before I knew it, it was a year after... |
| 11:30am | Read or Die | | | | The watchings of yesterday, 07/08/04. Started yesterday off with Read Or Die. (The OVA.) What stands out for this is by far the excellent blend of fantasy and reality. The quasi-science on the real stuff. The mechanical contraptions, especially the Stephenson ones. If you didn’t catch that, that’s... |
| 8:27am | End of Shining Tears X Wind | | | | The watchings of yesterday, 07/08/03. Completed watching Shining Tears X Wind. Remember that turning point? Not a turning point really, unless you can count reuniting all of Weiss Ritter a turning point. I was looking forward to that too with Mao, because to be honest, she’s about the only beast... | | |
| 8:02am | End of Yamato Nadeshiko[…]/Start of Shining Tears X Wind | | | | The watchings of yesterday, 07/08/02. Continuing where I left off on Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge, everyone is sort of ignoring the fact how it’s a bit mean to only talk to Sunako because of trying to avoid the rent. Their interaction appears to be no longer centered around that, but that could... | | |
| 8:54am | Start of Kidou Shinsengumi […]/Yamato Nadeshiko […] | | | | The watchings of yesterday, 07/08/01. (Didn’t feel like writing out completely in titlte so I abbreviated.) Began the day with Kidou Shinsengumi Moeyo Ken. Pretty funny. At least to start. Loads of gags. Story, with loads of gags. I really like the setting, with youkai needing to be registered,... | | |
| 4:03pm | Code Geass | | | | The watchings of the day before yesterday, and yesterday, 07/07/31. Code Geass. I’d decided ages ago that I’d watch it when episodes 24 and 25 came out, steadfastedly ignoring the fact that that wasn’t the end of the story. Mostly then because I’d understand people talking about... | | |
| 11:33am | End of Tide-Line Blue | | | | The watchings of yesterday, 07/07/30. Finished off Tide-Line blue. It was very big on cliff hanging, even at the mid episode break, I think. And a lot of it, what timing. Drama, but without drama some more. Not bad. What really was dramatic, to the point of being overly so, was Aoi. Don’t know... | | |
| 7:28am | End of Mezzo/Start of Tide-Line Blue | | | | The watchings of yesterday, 07/07/29. Mezzo continued with their edge of reality stories. I say that, ignoring everything else about it that makes it fantasy-esque. The ending makes perfect sense, which is great. Although you sort of wonder why the old detective dude did retire from the police. But... | | |
| 8:18am | End of Jinki/Start of Mezzo | | | | The watchings of yesterday, 07/07/28. So first yesterday I made some typos in titles. This is what happens when you get extraordinarily less sleep than usual. Oops. On to the main topic, I finished watching Jinki:Extend yesterday. I was hoping it was going to get cheery. Wrong. What happened was confusion.... |
| 7:03am | Shing End + Jinky Start | | | | The watchings of yesterday, 07/07/27. Started off by finishing off Shingu. There was a really good line, “A grand story of epic proportions.” I forget exactly what it was referring too, but it really fit. I also noticed the two sides were called the Planetary Alliance and the Galactic Federation.... |
| 8:14am | Shingu 1 | | | | The watchings of yesterday, 07/07/26. Started off with an episode of Boys Be yesterday, because I’ve got an incredibly long list of shows I’m in the middle of. The episode was nothing special, but it wasn’t horrible either. Just sort of helped pass the time. I will note I wasn’t... |
