| 8:12pm | Too Many Words About iDOLM@STER Xenoglossia | | | | Presently speaking (well, as I type this, probably not when I actually get around to posting this), I’m sat on a Train heading toward Scotland. There’s many a reason for this (well, at least more than one reason, I suppose your quantification of “many” may differ from mine),... | | |
| 6:46pm | Unfunny Internet Meme Comics #8-27 | | | | In other news, those unfortunate enough to follow me on Twitter will likely be aware that I presently find myself somewhat telephonically challenged, in so much as my internet situation is rather dire at present. This is, of course, not especially productive when it comes to watching new anime –... |
| 9:13pm | Unfunny Internet Meme Comics #8-26 | | | | One gathers that one’s abilities as a Magical Girl are closely related to what was wished for upon ones acceptance of the role, which begs the question – what kind of abilities would wishing for cake have actually produced? Alas, this we may never know |
| 6:48pm | Unfunny Internet Meme Comics #8-25 | | | | Funimation just can’t seem to catch a break at the moment. It’s almost as if something, or someone, is conspiring against them Yeah, I’ve got nothing today. Stuff to be doing! |
| 8:42pm | Unfunny Internet Meme Comics #8-24 | | | | I’m making a presumption here. That being that, like the rest of the world, Japan has some kind of broadcast regulation covering minors smoking, in that they aren’t allowed to show it. This, of course, means that Gosick is full of odd moments where Victorique wields her pipe without actually... |
| 6:37pm | Unfunny Internet Meme Comcis #8-23 | | | | Okay, so I’m dipping into my vast pool of generic, non-topical, non-time-restricted content today. Well, I say vast pool, but that consisted of pretty much just this and a bunch of sketches for things I’ve not gotten around to yet. But, hey, it’s been about four weeks since I posted... |
| 7:16pm | Unfunny Internet Meme Comics #8-22 | | | | I had imagined rendering a panic-stricken Madoka desperately begging each and every girl she came across for their mobile numbers, but then realised that she, perhaps fortunately, managed to side step what was probably a valuable life lesson. I’m kind of feeling that there really isn’t... | | |
| 10:33pm | Unfunny Internet Meme Comics #8-21 | | | | Seriously, Rio, I’m pretty sure the things your boss foists upon you are not acceptable within any modern Western country, Casino resort or not, Surprise strip clay-pigeon shooting is above and beyond the call of duty. Given she’s supposedly some Goddess of Luck, she’d probably take... |
| 9:27pm | Unfunny Internet Meme Comics #8-20 | | | | There was much (well, some) talk going around last week regarding Tokiwadai’s Railgun’s choice of ammunition, which eventually revealed itself to be arcade tokens. This might be a problematic issue should she, on occasion, find herself running short on supply – those darn change machines... |
| 8:12pm | Unfunny Internet Meme Comics #8-19 | | | | It’s Puella, not Paella, Miyako. Yeah, I’m quite sure that there’s 101 variants of exactly the same joke floating around the interwebs already, and at least 97 of those will be better, but this when have I ever let that stop me before. Besides, I wanted to draw moustachioed Yuno heads... | | |
| 7:55pm | Unfunny Internet Meme Comics #8-18 | | | | I’m making a call back of sorts, as obnoxious as that possibly is. Of course, as a Brit, I’d be more inclined to use a Cricket bat myself. Which, admittedly, would be even less useful than a Baseball bat would be – it’s not only rather more unwieldy to handle, but it’s... |
| 6:38am | Unfunny Internet Meme Comics #8-17 | | | | Telepathy – For when your animators absolutely have to spend all their time cutting out photocopies of photographs of scissors and cartoon moustaches. I mean, making those pesky lip-flaps pay at least some semblance to what the characters are supposed to be saying is no doubt a time consuming... |
| 11:38pm | Unfunny Internet Meme Comics #8-16 | | | | It’s kind of hard not to notice certain trends in anime. If someone was to tell me that back in the 1970s there had been a show where the Mummy of a long-dead Egyptian Queen hunted a young girl with a magical necklace of some kind, I’d be inclined to believe them. Also, I’d totally... |
| 11:45pm | Unfunny Internet Meme Comics #8-15 | | | | Well, it’s almost Friday here There’s a problem with trying to get these comics done in advance, as opposed to throwing them together at the last minute – that being that there’s every opportunity that, should an attempt be made to be even vaguely topical, it could be invalidated... | | |
| 6:15pm | Unfunny Internet Meme Comics #8-14 | | | | One of the most remarked upon scenes in anime in the last week was, of all things, the moment in Infinite Stratos in which the quality of English cuisine is called into question. This is, of course, an entirely unrealistic sequence, as whilst an argument could perhaps be put across for us having a... |
