| 7:17am | The Boredom of Nagato Yuki | | | | Those of us who have already been spoiled via the light novel translations were probably smiling wryly to ourselves last week. But I do wonder if the feeling of realization by the unspoilt, back-pedalling on cries of filler WRT the previous episode, would have been sweeter; I still remember my surprised... |
| 7:14am | Hayate no Gotoku!! 12 | | | | H: Wow, that’s quite a posse you’ve got there, Nagi. I mean a hawt meido is fine too but all those heavies. Isn’t it a bit much? N: Why!? H: THREE is a good enough for me. H: Just you wait! My harem is already bigger than yours!! You know, Wataru x Sakuya would actually be a pretty... | | |
| 8:07am | Endless Eight | | | | Somehow when I post about something really late, I usually feel somewhat obliged to do the lit review – an abhorrence of repetition? Which we have yet to see wrt the Endless part of this episode as noted by Metanorn, toonleap and Onibaku while Omni regrets spoiling himself. It’s hard to... |
| 7:40am | K-ON 12 | | | | For me, an anime’s end is often trumps its journey – particularly if I felt the ending or non-ending made a mockery of the journey. Such as the resets of School Rumble. I recall reacting badly to the final episode of the first iteration of Fullmetal Alchemist which continues to dampen my... | | |
| 6:49am | Link Categorization Exercise | | | | Baka-Raptor’s blog roll housekeeping exercise has spurred me to tidy up mine too. But not so much with respect to dead or ‘hiatus’ blogs; I regularly remove links about three months after the last substantive anime-related post ("I’m still alive" posts usually indicate... |
| 4:54pm | Nodame Cantabile 3-6 | | | | Just caught the latest installments on Animax. The (creditless) English dub was actually pretty decent; I particularly enjoyed Streseman’s faux German accent. But Chiaki didn’t sound half as irritated enough and Nodame’s ‘gyabou!’ and ‘mukyaa!’ were all cut... | | |
| 6:13am | Hayate no Gotoku!! 11 | | | | THREESOME with Hamster, of course. Woke up too soon! Why is THREESOME always on my mind? I do not lack fish oils!! No longer loli at Sweet 16? Not that I dislike that position. DO NOT WANT THREESOME with blonde twin-tailed loli!! Only Hamster will pass, geddit? For THREESOME?? “Hinagiku-san,... | | |
| 8:30am | Petit Eva ~ Evangelion@School 17-24 | | | | While trainspotting, Kensuke meets train rider Touji and joins him. Meido Hikari also comes onboard later. Touji returns Chibinami’s lolipop after they run over the candy-snatching Shamsel who is then made into a new toy by Rei 2. Just *what* is that furry one-eyed giant who turns anti-social... |
| 8:36am | Phantom ~ Requiem for the Phantom 1-10 | | | | Bee Train pair of assassins story without yuri? Pass! At least that was my initial reaction to the news of this series. But if Kabitzin can forgive Bee Train, I’m certainly willing to give it a try. Though there’s a small part of me that is waiting for Bee Train – having serenaded... |
| 8:08am | Petit Eva ~ Evangelion@School 10-16 | | | | Going to School. Rei’s morning routine is surprisingly manic in a LOL sort of way. She goes to school but it isn’t there but finally she presses the button that summons it out of the ground, unknowingly rescuing a bird crap encumbered Shinji along the way. So seriously weird shyte in these... | | |
| 2:52pm | Nodame Cantabile 1-2 | | | | Caught the first two eps, by chance, via Animax; my curiosity had been piqued by Hirasawa Yui versus Nodame discussion as well as comparisons with ToraDora’s Takasu Ryuuji. Quite surprised that I enjoyed it very much despite how Chiaki Shinichi is so arrogant (anyone who uses the ‘oresama’... | | |
| 12:31pm | Petit Eva ~ Evangelion@School 1-9 | | | | No need for subs to watch Puchi Eva – because there is no dialogue! (Well, maybe just for the titles of each clip.) First clip is Lunch Time where Unit One aka Evanchou (the banchou of the school orz) and Shinji exchange lunches, loved the way the former arrived on scene. Which culminates in... |
| 8:55am | K-ON 11 | | | | Jaalin wondered: The bit with Yui fixing up her guitar was normal K-ON fare, which was totally fine and pretty fun, but what the hell was up with the Ritsu bit? The whole Ritsu x Mio doramaz seems to be KyoAni original material; I didn’t see anything about this up to Chapter 25 of the source... |
| 6:29am | Hayate no Gotoku!! 10 | | | | Of course, they’re lying. The truth is that they are all in Hina’s Harem. Oh so modest. The only girl who can’t fit into Hina’s Harem – a very un-anee Katsura-anee. It’s still tough having to eat all that Valentine’s chocolate and not put on weight. Azuma... | | |
| 8:01am | Hatsukoi Limited 9 | | | | Some may say that Renjou-senpai is a worthy, worthy man while others were blown away by this ‘most beautiful and poignant of the bunch’ of high school rom-com stories. But with my /cynical switch constantly being auto-flipped throughout the episode, whenever Worthy Worthy Man opened his... |
