| 10:09pm | Bamboo Blade manga v1 |  | | | More proof that "it's all about Tamaki" Volume one of the Bamboo Blade manga arrived in the mail the other day. Despite sharing this blog-space with TheBigN, I was a late-comer to Bamboo Blade, but I’m intent on making up for lost time. Kendo comes to life on the still page It... | | |
| 4:25pm | Shangri-la 8: Rube Goldberg, not MacGuyver | | | | All the pieces are there, assembled by thumbs. Update, one week later: This post starts out negative, as that was my first reaction to the episode. Then as I thought about it more and more (as I wrote this post) I began to appreciate how the episode had been put together. The end result was a complete... |
| 3:10am | Generic New Haruhi Post #286 | | | | By TheBigN (sorry nekosasu. )Okay, I’ll admit that even more new The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi is nice to see. The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi-chan was more than enough for me, and I’ll definitely be missing those and the Nyoro~n Churuya-san short episodes, but now that there apparently... | | |
| 5:53pm | Eden of the East 6: Laughing Akira | | | | I thought what I'd do was, I'd pretend I was one of those deaf-mutes How scary is it that all I had to do was type “I tho” into the browser search-box, and its first suggestion was the quote I was looking for? |
| 2:53am | Shangri-la 6: datakake shoujo | | | | The sky above Kuwait was the color of television tuned to a dead channel Hanners is in despair while PSGels likes what’s happening. I like it, too, less for the interpersonal drama and more for the political tangle, with Japan a wholly-owned subsidiary of Atlas Corporation, and Ishida Finance... | | |
| 7:15pm | Impressions on Hyakko: A Class Act Led By A Class Clown | | | | By TheBigN Sometimes, it takes time for a show to find it’s groove, or for us to find ours when watching the show if we give it that chance. The first word that came to my mind when watching Hyakko was “off-beat”, or at least “off the beaten path” (which now that I think about it, doesn’t... | | |
| 1:09am | Graphite to Newcastle — Shangri-la 4 | | | | Kuniko (from the Shangri-la novel) disapproves of fanboy-science Someday, someone will make science fiction in which economics is the science. I don’t think this is that day. In episode four Kuniko decides to sell part of Metal Age’s horde of pre-carbon-market graphite to finance an uprising... | | |
| 6:26pm | Shangri-la: not the Green Robin Hoods you think | | | | Image from http://forums.megatokyo.com/in dex.php?showtopic=1733198& view=findpost&p=4890805 TJ writes in defense of Shangri-la (pay close attention, especially, to Trapmind’s comments on reading Science Fiction). Ani-nouto replies, but seems to think the show’s environmental and... |
| 4:39pm | Maria Holic- Pander Spectacular or/and Something Mo(r)e? | | | | By Nomad (Needs more Bookshelves) OttoSo, I’ve been rather busy with Grad School recently, blah blah. I’ll save you the Fred-isms, and start moving towards the point. Anyway, Shinbo makes a lot of crazy stuff, most of which I really like. Recently, he’s just been the director on MariaHolic,... | | |
| 12:35am | Studio 4C’s “Junk Town” | | | | The other day I came across a 15-minute film, Junk Town (Japanese title: Garakuta no machi), from Studio 4C. It’s so obscure, it doesn’t seem to have an animenewsnetwork encyclopedia entry, yet. It’s directed by Nobutaka Ito (wo worked on Kemonozume, Kimagure Robot, and was animation... | | |
| 8:36pm | A wolf loves pork — further excursions in “anime” | | | | It’s Japanese. It’s animated. Anime! It could use more Horo, perhaps. One of the reasons I love animation (of which anime is one form), it the inventiveness of the creators. This film is an example of that.Posted in randomness, Uncategorized Tagged: anime in the original sense... |
| 4:48pm | In Other Random Useless News… | | | | I found this random K-On! MAD that I’m sure that everyone else has seen already, but I still think it’s neat: It’s funny to see this done from just one episode of the show at that time, but lol creativity I guess. I wish there was more on the animeblogging end regarding the show,... |
| 4:27pm | The Things K-On! Can Influence… | | | | By TheBigN So while looking at the slew of K-On! pics that have cropped up from the show’s start, I managed to come across this one: ろんりくうぐんっ ！by 目下 Which I think is awesome. Why?When I saw Yui’s full name (Yui Hirasawa or 平沢唯), my first thought was along the... |
| 6:04pm | Brief Thoughts On K-On! 1 | | | | By TheBigN Well, it was an alright first episode of K-On!. Things I liked the most about it:Who would refuse that pitch? - The fact that despite the situation’s urgency in getting the Light Music club together, everything seemed to be taken in stride. From Mio’s quick acceptance of Ritsu’s... |
| 3:43pm | Second time’s the charm? Knowing me, probably not. I’ll still try my “best”. | | | | Well, I was planning on possibly doing a repeat of what I did last year for April Fools, but then I just felt like yeah. And that’s probably been my attitude regarding posting stuff recently, to be honest.Pretty much. However It comes regardless, This crappy flow of haiku Roaming inside meStill... |
