| 4:27am | Taishou Yakyuu Musume: Thoughts So Far |  | | | So, as this current anime season in Japan comes to a close, there have been a large amount of series that I’ve been watching that have been damn enjoyable. The interestingly epic combo (Bakemonogatari with SHAFT x NISIOISIN), the action-packed adventure (CANAAN), the juggernaut from last season (... | | |
| 4:16am | Shaft despairs | | | | A commenter over at Jason’s place pointed this out.Zan Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei, episode 7, about 10:02 If the above doesn’t come out as an animated gif, try here. Text slowed down a bit: What. outta money after moving to a new office?! Gotta cut corners to make a profit. huh!? Your production... | | |
| 3:09am | Mushishinbougatari, pt. 2 | | | | Or maybe that should be “Araraginko”. In the maligned episode 10 of Bakemonogatari, at about 7:57 in the episode, Mushishi fans can hear that familiar three chord descent on the piano, interweaved with a jazzy tune (Mushishi meets Brubeck’s Time Out), as they’re ascending the... | | |
| 1:10am | Just Wanted To Give A Brief Shoutout To The Strongest | | | | Happy 09/09/09.Because every day is repost day. No doubt, Cirno. And if people are wondering “is this (aka The Strongest) what it takes to get TheBigN to post?”, well, yeah. More should come though. I hope. Posting at 9:09PM right now. | | |
| 12:48am | Mushishinbougatari | | | | (Updated 9 Sep 2009, see below.) Bakemonogatari 9 started and I thought I’d stumbled on a lost episode of Mushishi I walked ten thousand miles, ten thousand miles to see you (sometimes that’s an animated gif of the opening few seconds of the episode, if not, here’s a link to something... | | |
| 11:02pm | Bakezaregotari | | | | Yummy Take cover art When I first read the description of NisiOisin’s Zaregoto: It’s the vacation of a lifetime, a trip to a remote island filled with geniuses – and murder. On Wet Crow’s Feather Island, a tiny speck in the Sea of Japan, lives Akagami Iria, the exiled daughter... | | |

| 5:29am | Otakon 2009 Day 1: (Ful)Filling | | | | I find that it’s been hard for me to write up my thoughts on things like going to conventions (or just writing in general recently). Part of it is me worrying if I got everything down that I remembered or wanted to remember (but that’s what other people fact checking are for! \o). Part of it is... | | |
| 4:23pm | Otakon Ho! Part 2! | | | | By TheBigN So yeah, I’m heading to Otakon on Friday barring any unforseen holdups, hangups, and inconviniences to that end. Looking at the schedule, I have an idea of what I want to do for each day, but nothing too certain yet. I hope to meet up with a lot of people that I met last year, and... |
| 5:49am | Nomad’s Super Awesome Manga Review Part The Nth: Buckaroo Banzai | | | | By Nomad(There! Evil PURE AND SIMPLE by way of the Eighth Dimension!)OttoI have a series of papers to write to justify my continued suckling of the public teat. They are due very soon. They require data which I have not yet fully collected/analyzed. They are very important and need to be super awesome... | | |
| 10:04pm | My Delusions As A Fanboy: If Moe Is A Cancer… | | | | By TheBigN What type of cancer would it be? Something slow-growing, yet considered incurable like a chronic lymphocytic leukemia? Something that could have been avoided if people didn’t use certain things too much, like smoking with lung cancers? Something that’s silent until it’s too late, like... |
| 2:00pm | Not the greatest song in the world, and is this even a tribute? | | | | You’ve seen this video before on the blog, but it was one of the first things I remembered when I first heard of the news yesterday. For better or for worse (better in my opinion): I’m not sure many people on earth now are as influential as Michael Jackson was. Or if not that, I’m... |
| 2:53am | Zetsubou Sensei GN v2 | | | | More Zetsubou-sensei? Yorokobusu shita! (I sure hope I got that caption right.) Volume two of Del Rey’s translation of Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei arrived a couple of weeks ago, and, if anything, it’s better than the first volume. Del Rey’s designers have done a good job paying respect... | | |
| 7:55pm | You’re going to have to carry all that weight, Yui. | | | | By TheBigN I’m definitely not the first to find and link to this K-On! MAD (yes, I know some of you are probably saying “Not another one.”, but meh), but I think it’s an awesome combo enough that it needs more exposure. Coming off the recent episode, I’ve also found that... |
