| 1:17pm | Mobile Miasma | | | | Came across this Kannagi screenshot when I was clearing out my Miscellaneous Screenshots folder.I can only assume that this is either some sort of biting social commentary, or an injoke. | | |
| 6:08am | On Fans And Fandoms | | | | There is, I have found, a difference between being a fan, being part of a fandom, and simply liking something. An excellent illustration can be seen with the Fallout games: there is the fan-ness of being a fan of the games, and there is the fan-ness of liking the games. These are not mutually inclusive,... |
| 3:49pm | Asu no Yoichi 01 - Yukarin~ | | | | I have a great many things I could say about this anime, such as my anticipation of it based on the manga, as well as my expectation that it’s not going to be a good anime, but it’s going to be fun.I could mention that it’s effectively a vehicle for wacky romantic fanservice hijinks.... |
| 7:35am | Nanoha GamerS XXX - Magic Bullet | | | | This entry is part 30 of 30 in the series Nanoha GamerSAn odd thing I’ve noticed during the course of this webcomic is that readers seem to have certain expectations, which I am inevitably obliged to fulfil. |
| 6:29am | Obligatory New Year’s Post | | | | According to anime, from whence I get all my wordly knowledge, it is considered a Good Omen if you dream about certain things as your first nocturnal imaginings of the New Year. The list, obtained from my handiest source (Lucky Star, natch), goes, in order: Mount Fuji, a hawk, an eggplant. Miwiki Miyuki... | | |
| 2:50am | What I Did On My Holidays | | | | Because I have nothing remotely resembling a social life, I spent Christmas Eve and Christmas Day itself fighting snow monsters and rescuing disturbing infants. |
| 10:17pm | A Musical Interlude | | | | It’s beginning to look a lot like ChristmasOn the aniblogosphereWhen I look at the calendar dateI think of events of lateWith no idea what I’ll blog about next yearIt’s beginning to get quite close to ChristmasYou can plainly seeI’ve filked this song todayBecause everyone runs... |
| 12:28pm | In Days Of Yore | | | | Now that I have actual Free Time that does not need to be taken up by worrying about what I should be doing instead of what I actually am doing, I am burrowing through my anime collection to rewatch the shows I keep meaning to rewatch. This is because if I don’t take advantage of |

| 2:18pm | Cruelty To Fictives | | | | I didn’t really take notice of the ruling on cartoon depictions of questionable acts involving underage characters, mainly because we had just encountered another one a few months prior, and that’s still going on.In any case, I really only noticed it after Neil Gaiman pointed out that the... |
| 7:32pm | Character Realism | | | | I’d link to a Mary Sue Litmus Test, but considering the sheer variety of these out there, I doubt that any one of them is truly representative of all the rest. Considering how much they’ve been copied-and-pasted, I suspect that while there may be an original (for the Gargoyles fandom, I believe)... |
| 9:09pm | And Supporting Cast | | | | A great deal of virtual ink, which is nothing like actual ink save when used in a metaphor, has been spilled on the popularity of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. It is fast becoming a sort of shibboleth, to identify those who have crossed the threshold to become a hardcore anime fan, by which I | | |
| 8:24pm | Genuflection Of Life | | | | I know that I’m supposed to be working on all sorts of posts right now, but after hammering away at my NaNoWriMo for the whole month, and especially this past week, I’ve been too drained to think of much of anything. (No, really. You try writing ten thousand words of story in one day and... |
