| 9:48am | Thinking With The Wrong Head | | | | Occasionally there are things anime, or at least related to anime by various degrees, that I feel are interesting and worthy of being liked, as opposed to the more generic indifference that I greet many random series with.Which makes it a pity that I'm not actually allowed to talk about them without... |
| 3:53pm | GA Geijutsuka Art Design Class 02 – Pencil Of God | | | | It is said that the surest sign of a dead online endeavour is an excuse about how things are so busy in Real Life and I'll promise to update it as soon as I can, really, no problems about that, just need to find the time so on and so forth. In many cases when | | |
| 3:51pm | Princess Lover – Huge Tracts Of Land | | | | And all he wants to do is sing. Or swing, maybe.For some reason this show feels over-animated to me. The art style takes a little getting used to, since I usually see it when used for scenes with a great deal of movement, when you don't have the luxury of examining every line in detail. | | |
| 10:33am | Sora no Manimani – My God It's Full Of Stars | | | | I'm a little iffy about the leads. They're not bad, but Saku and Mihoshi just don't really interest me all that much. It feels like they're missing something, some strange chemistry that makes other couples work. Hime is also a little too tempting a target for the plot gods to mess about with in a | | |
| 2:12pm | Geijutsuka Art Design Class 01 – Hey It's That Voice | | | | One of the front-running candidates for the third spot of my Favourite Anime listing (behind Card Captor Sakura and Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya) is Hidamari Sketch, and the main reason it hasn't been shunted into the position yet is because I'm not entirely sure why. This isn't exactly a reason in... | | |
| 10:53am | An Offer I Cannot Refuse | | | | For some reason, once you become an established blogger who does okay-ish in terms of site hits, nowhere near the Big Guys but still kind of ego-boosting, a great many people start wanting to recruit you into their blogs.I'm not entirely certain why. Maybe it has something to do with having developed... |
| 12:23pm | Panels And Prose | | | | I need to start balancing out my reading habits.If I were to be categorized into a broad fan archetype, I'd most certainly be in the "fanfiction writer" class, albeit dabbling into "blogger" (quite obviously). I've been thinking about it for over a decade now, about as long as I've been an anime fan... |
| 12:21pm | Persona 4 – Every Day's Great At Your Junes | | | | While waiting for my Internet to get repaired (again), I've been marathoning Persona 4, which features, as one of its much-vaunted improvements over Persona 3, branching Social Link options. The overall difference is fairly minor, largely in the conversation options and incidental dialogue; the Social... |
| 9:58am | The Repetition Of Haruhi Suzumiya | | | | Real Life is working me particularly hard these days. I anticipated this, and posted one of my two-posts-a-week early, but I am left with one more to go. I am afraid this is it.Unlike many other bloggers of the realm, I don't actually mind the endlessness of the eights that have been the theme of | | |
| 11:41am | Coming x Humming – Cute Kids And Pets | | | | Why do so many bishoujo games have a token cute animal (for varying degrees of "cute")? The Key anime adaptations featured theirs, with Piro in Kanon, Potato in Air, and Botan in Clannad. Nursery Rhyme has Azu, and Heart de Roommate had Toshibo. I first noticed this during the fake opening for the last... | | |
| 11:01am | The Orchestra Of Haruhi Suzumiya | | | | I admit that I'm not entirely certain what to think about hearing "Koi no Mikuru Densetsu" as played by the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra.There's something strangely compelling about listening to pop music, as in popular music that is of interest to the teeming masses, as played by an orchestra. Or a... | | |
| 4:48pm | K-On 12 – AAAAA MUGI | | | | You are killing me here. It is such a sweet death.I realize that there's something about a concert or some such, but other people have covered that in more detail than I feel like. I have but one gimmick, and I am going to milk that gimmick for all it is worth.Mind you, I'm well |
