| 10:45pm | Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 Episode 11-Final Episode |  | | | There’s a lot of crying in this episode. Booo There really is, especially in the first half. I do have to give the show kudos for a realistic portrayal of depression. It’s interesting to see Mirai start to pull herself out of it, and Mari’s role in that. I was also pretty excited to see that... | | |
| 1:21am | CANAAN episode 11 |  | | | Canaan is faster then a speeding bullet! Alphard was truly the star of this episode. She’s definitely the stand-out character in this show; she’s such a kick-a villain. I keep getting excited for what should be a fantastic showdown between Canaan and Alphard. I hope it doesn’t... | | |
| 1:15am | [Manga Monday] Ao no Exorcist |  | | | See, any manga with “Exorcist” in the title is gonna get my attention faster than a van full of yaoi bait. But it just so happens that Ao no Exorcist IS a van (er, book) full of yaoi bait – and more. The series so far is a solid blend of action, drama and school antics, with enough... |
| 10:45am | Memory Quilt: Higurashi no Naku Koro ni |  | | | I love Rena so much. She’s also who the first season’s season finale focused on, which is why I picked her. I watched the famous 26 episode series last year. I actually hesitated to watch it for a long time, as I don’t like blood and gore very much, which from what I heard, I... | | |
| 4:03pm | Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 episode 10 |  | | | Well, boys and girls, it’s been the moment we’ve all been waiting for. *gasp* This is the episode I’ve been waiting for, but I found this episode to be executed really poorly. I was really surprised that Itsuki wasn’t bothered by Marai’s behavior. He may be young, but that doesn’t mean... | | |
| 8:55pm | Aoi Hana Final Impressions |  | | | While there are many series I love, there aren’t many I’m willing to call a masterpiece. However, I do feel Aoi Hana deserves this title. Hehe What sets Aoi Hana apart is the animation. It truly goes over and beyond the typical water color look that I’m use to from... | | |
| 12:47am | The Last Remnant Review |  | | | Over the past two weeks, I’ve been pushing through The Last Remnant, one of Square-Enix’s new IPs for 2009. This is old hat for some of you, but there’s a surprising number of people that I’ve talked to who were interested, but never actually went to pick it up. So, let’s take a look... |
| 11:36pm | Aoi Hana episode 11-Final |  | | | J.C. Staff? Why must you be a tease?Awwso cute. I was really hoping for an AkiraxFumi ending, with a kiss or something. Instead, we got Fumi realizing that Akira was her first love, and leaving it at that. Really, the actual story ended in episode 10, this episode was all about tying up loose ends.... | | |
| 7:28pm | Gonzo Shows Signs of the Times, But Nothing Surprising |  | | | Canned Dogs pointed out on Monday that Studio Gonzo’s official online store, through which they sell their DVDs, CDs and other merch, is closing at the end of September. “Gonzo Style” has been up since 2005, and their closing is noted as being rather abrupt. However, as the Canned... | | |
| 8:53pm | Pandora Hearts 22–Alice and her 27 dresses |  | | | There was a lot of back story in this episode. We learned more about Break’s past as well as Alice’s. It seems Alice had quite an impressive wardrobe–I screenshoted everytime she was shown in a new dress. Also, we found out the secret behind her.Double trouble There’s not really that much... |
| 7:55pm | CANAAN episode 10 |  | | | ;___________; NOOOOOO! One guy down. For awhile I thought it would essentially be down two guys, as Hakko would be useless losing him, but luckily the photographer was able to pull her out of a depression—at least enough that she stops trying to kill everyone else. I really hate the one girl who’s... | | |
| 5:06pm | Fall 2009 Anime Preview |  | | | Oh jeez, here we go again. According to one source, there’s only two “original” series this fall, and the rest are sequels or adaptations. Fortunately, there seems to be enough non-crap series coming up, but will it be enough to actually keep us sane? Or will the likes of Asura Cryin’s... | | |
| 4:55pm | [Manga Monday] Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai Tsumihoroboshi-hen |  | | | CJ’s jumping on the “Manga Monday” bandwagon! Each week she’ll cover a new manga series that’s either got her begging for a license or has her spitting fire at the screen. Either way, it will be entertaining, because she will likely drop all administrator pretentiousness... | | |
