| 12:35am | Shugo Chara Doki 57 - The Path to MANHOOD | | | | This episode was so useless, but I laughed so hard. Being a man's man is hard work. Ikuto and Yoru are searching for his violin, but they don't have any luck. Yoru is concerned because the violin is very important to Ikuto, but Ikuto says it's not that big of a deal. At school, a group of dojo students... | | |
| 5:14am | Chaos;HEAd Ep. 04 - Reality Lost | | | | Sorry for the lateness of this post. I was delayed by a mix of a hectic work week and the fact that this episode is quite frankly not as good as the others. The "whose eyes are these" motto is suddenly popular thanks to the "vampire killings" as of late. No matter where Takumi goes, he's haunted by it.... | | |
| 5:32am | Skip Beat! Ep. 05 - First Day on the Job | | | | Lory explains to Kyoko that a real actor has to want to be loved. Kyoko seems to be missing the desire and ability to love, which is why she's in the Love Me section. Once she can get people to love her, she'll be ready for her debut. Kyoko agrees to do her best and is give a horrendous hot pink jumpsuit... | | |
| 8:34pm | Shugo Chara Doki 56 - Nadeshiko Returns! | | | | Yaaay! Nadeshiko/Nagihiko is back! Amu has a dream that Nadeshiko returns, but it's cut short by stern awakening from Nikaido. The female guardians are in their greenhouse, and they wonder where Tadase is. Before they can speculate too much, an awkward boy stumbles in, lost. Meanwhile, Tadase and Kukai... | | |
| 5:32pm | Sneaky Ninja Animation - Preview Images | | | | I am so behind on watching anime (blame work and the current U.S. Elections). I've only managed to keep up with three series this season. And so on my day off from work, what do I do? Animate stuff in Flash, of course! This is my first time working on a serious animation, and it's a lot of fun but slow... |
| 4:50am | Skip Beat! Ep. 04 - Please Love Me! | | | | Kyoko has a new job at a gas station, and she's moving on with her life after her failed LME audition. A commercial on the TV starring Shou makes her angry, but she tries to move past it. Unfortunately for her, Shou and his manager drive up to that very gas station. One of the other attendants asks Shou... | | |
| 6:02pm | Skip Beat! Ch. 130 - KYOKOWNED!!! | | | | Kaori suggests that Kyoko can't find her tie because she just wasn't trying hard enough. Kyoko says she'll return to look for it, but before she leaves, she tears Kaori's tie off, saying that since they're friends it would be okay if their look matched as well. Everyone is shocked, and the director is... | | |
| 5:35am | Shugo Chara Doki Ep. 55 - Amulet Spade Power Up! | | | | The Easter crew is planning their next step. Lulu will find another target, the idiots will measure some sort of data, and Ikuto will chase after the Embryo when it shows up. Amu runs into a girl named Hitomi who idolizes Utau and loves singing. Upon discovering that Amu knows Utau personally, Hitomi... | | |
| 9:15pm | Chaos;HEAd Ep. 03 - These eyes...whose eyes are they? | | | | The phrase "Sono medare no me?" ("These eyeswhose eyes are they?") has been the tagline for the preview of each episode. And with episode three, the question finally comes to life. Takumi recalls as a child, he drew a picture of a bus crash and tore it in two, just as his mother received a telephone... | | |
| 8:56pm | Chaos;HEAd Ep. 02 - Could it be any slower? | | | | Well, after the promising setup, we geteven more setup. Slow moving, but decidedly intriguing. The "demon woman" at school is surprised that Takumi doesn't recognize her. He wonders how she knows his name, and she acts hurt, saying they're friends. She asks if he remembers her name, and he suddenly recalls... | | |
| 5:21am | Skip Beat! Ep. 03 - Needs More Ren | | | | With my new job, I'm finding myself falling behind on anime already. I'm doing my very best to keep up with at least Skip Beat! Kyoko's talent (as you may have already guessed) is cutting vegetables. However, it's not just vegetable cutting. It's creating a daikon rose, which is a very difficult sort... | | |
| 12:37am | Shugo Chara Doki 54 - Power up! | | | | Yaya is excited about Amu's most recent power up with Ran and hopes that the Humpty Lock will perform similar magic for her.

| 5:15am | Nightmare of Nunnally - Manga Review | | | | Sorry for missing yesterday. I was out all day from six in the morning to close to midnight and anything I would have written would have been incoherent nonsense. Which means it would have been perfect for reviewing this series. Nightmare of Nunnally is Code Geass re-imagined in a work where Nunnally... | | |
| 4:08am | Skip Beat! Ch. 129 | | | | It's really kinda weird watching this series where Kyoko hasn't even passed an audition yet, then skipping ahead to this where she's [spoiler spoiler spoiler]. Then again, I don't think saying Kyoko actually lands a job is any sort of spoiler at all. Picking up from the last chapter, Kyoko's new character... | | |
| 2:00am | Bihada Ichizoku Ep. 01-02 - Maybe she's born with it; Maybe it's Insanity | | | | I was really expecting a cute and mindless story about cute girls worrying about fashion and boys. Turns out, it's really not. Bihada Ichizoku (Beautiful Skin Family) is another series in the grand tradition of selling stuff to kids. But instead of trading cards or plastic wands, it's cosmetics. And... | | |
