| 11:57pm | (Anime - Movie) AIR Review | | | | My first watch of AIR (TV) gave me a slight sense of discomfort; I heard great things about it, but it bored me. Although it did reverse that halfway through the show, a massive WTF landed on my lap with the Kanna/Ryuuya arc. A second viewing changed my opinions on AIR for the better, and it quickly... | | |
| 5:50am | (Anime - TV) Strawberry Panic Review | | | | I’ll be honest; the sole reason I started watching this was because of the yuri content. That’s never a good reason alone to watch something because usually it is a disappointment. Strawberry Panic did just that. It was a disappointment in the yuri department. A kiss was usually as far as most... |

| 6:20am | America’s Manga: Comics | | | | Before every TVs were in every household, before computers were available for personal use and before game systems were common in households, what did people do for fun?

| 4:47am | Shakugan no Shana (Anime) Review | | | | There are slight, but negligible spoilers in this review. This won’t be a long review and it will be very much to the point, because there isn’t a lot to say about Shakugan no Shana. Such an interesting concept, but where did it go wrong?
