| 2:35pm | I’ll ruin you because I love you | | | | Some times, you need not say anything. Merely the way you move, a seemingly insignificant, deft touch, can betray your heart, because context is everything; words have no meaning without it. Your context is your smile, those tears, that sky. It’s a visual thing. When all that you can see might... | | |
| 12:08pm | Delighted with some devilishly delicious horror | | | | Never one to refuse an opportunity to read some delicious horror manga, I’ve whiled away these last couple of weeks plunging my eyes into the many dark crevasses of the internet, hoping in vain to uncover another crawling Enigma of Japanese terror. Forget about all this torture porn nonsense,... |
| 9:15pm | Autumn ‘08 impressions: week 2 | | | | Another week and the last of my autumn anime impressions. Right now, it feels like this is an exciting time to be an anime fan. There is so much that’s actually worth watching at the moment that it really seems like every day I’m adding more and more to my back-log. Naturally, I’m... | | |
| 8:20pm | Autumn ‘08 impressions: week 1 | | | | This past weekend was spent watching anime, lots and lots of anime, and below you can read my findings. Having come perilously close to losing my sanity at several points over the last few days, the scariest thing is that there is still so much I’m waiting to see, not least of all the majority... | | |
| 7:43pm | Love will tear us apart | | | | Earlier this year, I made an agreement with Owen of Cruel Angel Theses. I promised I’d try to watch True Tears if he would step-up to one of my recent favorites too; none other than Shigurui. True to form, Owen came through on his side of the agreement almost instantly, and here I am, many months... | | |
| 10:54pm | A tribute to Soul Eater 18 | | | | It’s been a long time since my last foray into Soul Eater. Too long, really. And it’s easy to forget just how fun it is, how exciting, how damn awesome.I mean, there are certain things that will always stick out, launch it above other series, and these two episodes were no different. Consider... | | |
| 8:31pm | Cherry picking in autumn | | | | Hello, my name is bateszi. I’m a generic anime blogger and this is my generic autumn preview. Please enjoy these poorly researched comments on anime that I know nothing about, talking about new series with the same pictures, synopsis and links that you can see in dozens of other autumn previews... | | |
| 6:45pm | Actually, Blassreiter is quite good | | | | When Blassreiter started airing in April, I suppose I wasn’t the only one to ignore it, but why is that? Wait, isn’t it obvious? Just two damn words are all it takes.Studio Gonzo.In recent years, despite the odd exception, their name has become synonymous with bland, conventional, boring... | | |
| 6:49pm | A romantic interpretation of Kaiba | | | | I was always going to like Kaiba. Even before it started airing, I had, somewhat dangerously, convinced myself that it would be good. After all, with someone like Masaaki Yuasa directing, I had to expect it would special and well, some five months later, here we are again, I just finished Kaiba this... | | |
| 9:06pm | About an anime fan | | | | I’ve been an anime fan for no more than 5 years and already I’m starting to feel like I’ve been around forever, yet the truth is that my mere half-decade of devotion barely even scratches the surface, after all, some hardy souls have been following this foreign Japanese stuff for more... | | |
| 4:31pm | Bitter sweet school days; All About Lily Chou-Chou | | | | Back in June, I reviewed a Japanese live action film called Linda Linda Linda. It was a great movie, so great, in fact, that it encouraged me to dig deeply into the depths of Japanese cinema. Since then, I’ve been working my way through the recommendations in the comments of that post. It has been... | | |
| 10:45pm | You call yourself human? | | | | I’m not dead, just low on inspiration. That’s all I wanted to say, really, and while I’m trying to come up with some more legitimate ideas for anime blogging, I figured I may as well link a Supercar music video, by far and away my favourite Japanese rock band. Having been procrastinating... |
| 9:02pm | One Piece and why a man is only as good as his word | | | | Brook: “He may think that we’ve betrayed him, but if he’s waiting even now, how miserable must he be? I can’t help but think that he’s believed in us all this time.“Luffy: “Your nakama may be dead, but from now on I’m your rival!“ I love One Piece.... |
