| 6:59am | Saki 10 | | | | I don’t think they’ll be getting much sleep though. *Warning: This post is rather more filthy than my usual stuff. LOL* No time to lose! The game is ‘Who can make who come first’. :3 Such clean white fluffy sheets all the better to leave wet spots on! If there were more... |
| 7:59am | K-ON 10 | | | | Even Ui says Yui FTW. It’s a powerful endorsement. And completely unexpected. While Yui is indeed fortunate to have such an understanding (or one eye closed) sister in Ui, there’s also the reverse factor highlighted when Ritsu imagined that the contrasting personalities could set the scene... |
| 7:05am | Anime BGMs :: Non-Mio headphone test drive | | | | I’m still learning to get the best out of my recently acquired ATH-ANC7. For starters, turning on noise cancelling for a fuller sound, regardless of background noise, bears out a common theme in the reviews. Also an excuse to post about the medley of favourite anime BGM tracks which I used for... | | |
| 2:57am | Hatsukoi Limited 8 | | | | Collateral damage. Cutting the Gordian knot. My admiration for Saki-nee continues to grow. She was in a difficult situation wrt Mamoru and Yoshihiko but, ultimately, did the best thing by confronting things head-on, face-to-face, politely, quickly and decisively. It’s valuable skill for someone... |
| 7:06am | Hatsukoi Limited 7 | | | | Be careful what you wish for Because even Oniichan-lovin’ little sisters can be seduced by the power of Oneesama. Though you wouldn’t peg Koyoi as a Hayate-type, I suppose this also counts as a type of love at first sight. When it’s all systems shorted out. When her face is definitely... |
| 3:46am | Not dwelling in the land of Nod | | | | The “sweet smell of vindication” indeed; I didn’t pick up Eden of the East either. I don’t always like what Evirus positively enjoys but I usually almost always react badly to things that stick up his craw. And thus: It’s also somewhat shallow to say, but I find the character... | | |
| 8:49am | Hayate no Gotoku!! 9 | | | | No speaking lines from Hina this episode. Would Maria-san be surprised too? ©2009 hontou ni sou omou?. All Rights Reserved.. | | |
| 8:00am | K-ON 9 | | | | Azusa’s reaction to the club largely mirrors my own reaction to this series. It’s hardly a guilty pleasure but every time I was prepared to roll my eyes or turn up my nose at K-ON for the way it churns out moé tropes, it would hit me with something like: S-She’s pretty / Cat... |

| 8:26am | Alter Shigure Asa :: Grassy field in the evening | | | | As usual, I should have seen it coming. Or rather, I should have heard it coming. The running footfalls approaching from behind. The intake of breadth. Perhaps even the swinging of her arm through the air. There was, of course, no missing either the loud greeting of "HELLO!" and the slap... | | |
| 7:01am | Hayate no Gotoku!! 8 | | | | Hmmm, I think what’s missing here is an awkward afterTHREESOME morning after scene with Ayumu. A THREESOME of de facto orphans. Even Mom approves of the power of THREE! The in-betweening is QUALITY though. Not the face! Anything but the face!! THREESOME is awesome but we’re always... | | |
| 9:13am | Twin sister’s Cryin’ identity crisis in the Yuri Triangle | | | | I’m still megas confused about whether Shuri is really Shuri or Yukari. Some viewers might think that it’s pretty clear; I will attempt to show that it is not. Others might mark down the show due to their confusion; I think the mystery is an enjoyable one. Some may not care either way;... |
| 10:19am | Bamboo Leaf Rhapsody | | | | Good things come to those who wait. And now we, of the Worshipful Order of St Nagato-chi, give thanks. For reform and harmony. Time Enough for Love of Yuki. A note in time. I’m not a glass man either but, well, if it’s Yuki Trace on! OMH so moé - she definitely has a softer... |
| 3:29am | K-ON 8 | | | | So you like nankotsu!!? Verily Sawa-chan is Mustang x Hughes. Ui’s friend also senses that yuri is strong in Mugi. Although Ui is praiseworthy, I suspect that part of Yui’s goro-goro-ness comes from having the security of having Ui around to pick up the pieces. And Ui seems to be the... |
| 2:04am | Mermaid Fail, Encore passes, Dash FTW | | | | Seto no Hanayome Koji Oe wouldn’t mind a second season. I’m not so sure. I felt that, wrt the OVAs, the franchise has lost some of its charm. The reintroduction of the cast was somewhat tedious and the thing I particularly took exception to was how Gouzaburo has reverted back to Nagasumi-hatin’... | | |
