| 5:25am | Size matters—bleach (manga) 326–328 | | | | flocking huge I haven’t expected a captain to draw his sword so soon, but the last Arrancar happens to be too much for anyone else less than a captain with his bankai released to handle. In a battle of giant versus giant, Ikkaku, who has refused to release his, has no chance even if he does.... | | |
| 3:47am | Creepiest character for quite some times—casshern sins 1 | | | | and annoying as hell too This is the first time a character has killed a show for me. She, or it or whatever it is, was plain annoying and creepy! Half way through the episode, I was saying to myself, there is no way I will watch this hideous face and listen to her whiny voice for thirteen or so episodes.... |
| 1:49am | When a filler becomes the finale—natsume yuujinchou 13 | | | | ¿ǝposıdǝ ʍǝıʌǝɹ ɐ ʇsnɾ 'ʍouʞ ʇ,uop ı 'ɥo This is the first time I’ve seen a series ends with a review episode.

| 1:28am | Strike Witches 12 (end) going out on a whimp | | | | This show shouldn't try to be like another show.

| 6:15am | Bilrer=Kawamori, it was all for Minmay—macross frontier 25 end | | | | Hai, Kawamori-san Since I seem to have never been the popular voice on Macross F—although I believe I have been the more rational one—there is no reason to break the tradition now: This episode was stupid, a ruin to what was a great show up until ep. 25. It was another Mai Hime ending all... | | |
| 6:20am | Ayu as Sheryl Nome | | | | Not that there is any rumor of a live action remake of Macross F[1], but if they’re doing it, then I have their perfect candidate for the role of Sheryl Nome: Ayumi Hamasaki or more simply known as Ayu. I assure you she sings pretty well too. Not to mention her classiness, but don’t... |
| 5:39am | Invading New York Anime Festival 2008 | | | | Hey, I'm just starting to learn GIMP. :p Barring from a total collapse of the financial industry this weekend, I and two other comrades will go as Aizen and co. but with a twist: neko-ears!

| 1:23am | Manifest Destiny—macross frontier 24 | | | | Because coexisting is not in our human nature. Listening to the exchange between Brera and Klan on who is the aggressor is very telling. “No, we’re only defending ourselves.” “Bullshit, you attacked us first.” And then you have the brainwashing of the Frontier army: “We... |

| 4:23am | A gradual canticle for Ranka Lee | | | | The thinnest bear is awakened in the winter by the sleep-laughter of locusts, by the dream-blustering of bees, by the honeyed scent of desert sands that the wind carries in her womb into the distant hills, into the houses of Cedar. The bear has heard a sure promise. Certain words are edible; they nourish... |
| 6:42am | Strike Witches 11: let’s all turn on Miyafuji! | | | | Yes, it’s your fault, everything’s your fault. You definitely didn’t think this one through, did you? Don’t you think that the Neuroi’s would be upset at you for killing so many of them? But then you go off to make friend with that Neuroilet. I’m so upset at... | | |
| 2:37am | Natsume Yuujinchou 10: song of silence | | | | You know an anime series is special when it can give you nothing but yet you feel like you’ve gotten everything.
