| 12:57pm | Thoughts on Hidamari Sketch x365 Episode 5: Homecoming |  | | | By TheBigN(o U) It doesn’t hurt being the second oldest out of seven siblings, where you have loads of responsibility but not as much as the oldest one, but you still have a little leeway to get away with some things as the younger siblings do. At least that’s the situation that I found... |
| 2:44pm | Impressions on Otakon 2008: Can’t Wait Till Next Year | | | | By TheBigN(o Border) Three posts in 24 hours on this blog is unheard of. But there’s a first time for everything, isn’t there? I decided to take a lazy approach to this (at the moment) last post about this year’s Otakon, which only ended a week and some days ago even though it already... |
| 4:49am | Money and Art | | | | By Nomad(TWIST AWAY THE GATES OF STEEL)Otto There’s art, and then there’s the buisness of art. Art is about truth, beauty and associated Bull. Buisness is about making as much money as possible. There’s a fundamental tension between the two ends, and it’s this tension, which... |
| 1:20am | An anime-obsessive visits Paris | | | | Hello from a new contributor to Drastic My Anime Blog, and thank you to TBN for inviting me to make a fool of myself here — dm.Wish I'd been there in time to catch this exhibit. I admit that looking for anime in Paris is a little silly: there’s so much else to see — much of it... |
| 6:35pm | Thoughts on Otakon 2008 Day 3: All FUN Things Come To Those Who End | | | | By TheBigN(ever thought I’d do four posts in a week.) If the title didn’t make sense, it’s not supposed to. Just letting you know. As I woke up this day, I was exhausted from the day beforehand and coupling that with the fact that I had to pack up and “check out” of... | | |

| 4:00am | Thoughts on Otakon 2008 Day 2 Part 2: Games! Panels! Karaoke! EPIC! | | | | When I stopped last time, I had just gotten some keychains from the Kadokawa panel, which wasn’t too bad time spent. And my day goes on 3:00: Spent some time with Nomad in the dealer’s room, which almost sucked out my soul. I only had about $250 on hand, and $100 extra from a good friend,... |
| 3:11pm | Thoughts on Otakon 2008 Day 2 Part 1: Wish I Was There From Day 0 | | | | By TheBigN(egima!?) So I had preregged for the convention and everything, but I was still kinda worried about if I was able to actually go or not. This is usually caused by a combination of bad timing and irrational fear, but since nothing was really going on in medical school for that upcoming week... | | |
| 12:14pm | Back from Otakon, and Boy, My Arms Are Tired! | | | | I’m really tired and real life med school life (yes, that should make sense :P) is hitting hard with a vengeance, so expect a summary post in a couple of days from now. But Otakon 2008 was mad fun, for a start. And for those of you who went to the Game Show, I was the one that coined “Yuri... |
| 12:18pm | Random Ramblings III: Otakon Ho! And Other Stories | | | | By TheBigN(arcissistic Bastard) Once again, it’s one of those posts where I can’t think of anything to say enough about that warrants a full post, but instead I have a million (roughly) jumbled thoughts that I voice out. So to begin with, the million-dollar question: Yes I am going to Otakon... | | |
| 12:02pm | Thoughts on Hidamari Sketch x365 Episode 3: If It Makes You Happy | | | | By TheBigN(ikuman) Well, who wouldn’t get embarrassed in the situation that Yuno found herself in while sketching in this episode? Chances are, if someone’s observing me working or typing up posts like this, I’d feel the same as well. I think it’s because focusing on doing things... | | |
| 12:56pm | Initial Impressions on Strike Witches: Well, The World Hasn’t Ended Yet | | | | By TheBigN(o respect probably after this post) I find Strike Witches to be some cheesy endearing fluff that I don’t mind paying money to watch, since I haven’t fully realized the debt that I’m going to be in once this whole med school/residency/fellowship thing is done with. And granted,... | | |
| 12:27pm | Thoughts on Hidamari Sketch x365 Episode 2: Calling You | | | | By TheBigN(ip This in the Bud) Suddenly, there were cell phones! Thousands of them! Or so my thoughts went as I watched this episode. Of course, this is coming from someone who doesn’t have a cell phone, so seeing how frequently they were used in this episode is interesting enough for me to write... | | |
| 6:19am | Clubbed to Death and Con-fused | | | | By Nomad (Lord of the Dance) OttoMan is a political (city-dwelling) animal, at least according to Aristotle, who also thought that the brain was the body’s radiator and there are natural born slaves, so it’s probably good to take him with a grain of salt. However, there is a definite tendency... | | |
