| 4:57pm | Do You Guys Know Adachi Mitsuru? | | | | Judging from the otaku and normal people crowd’s responses in general, I found that not many of you actually know who Adachi Mitsuru is. At this moment, I bet you’re screaming "I KNOW I KNOW!!!", then OK you win. Cross Game is his most recent manga, and with its adaptation into... | | |
| 4:43am | [Hynavian] Correlation Diagram Generator | | | | A just for fun test pointed out by Blowfish, I did a correlation diagram test. For this test, I seek to discover my relationship with Ascaloth, Tj_han, LianYL and Kokanaden. Purely just for fun, behold the results. More tests can be found at Genzu.net According to the diagram, I clearly have some unfinished... |

With the requisite membership attained, and a full set of instruments in place, it’s time to begin band practice.except, as is all too often the case, real life tends to get in the way of the things you really want to do. And in... |
| 2:02pm | A Peek into the Diary of K-ON’s Hirasawa Yui! | | | | Dear Diary, I have started to write in this diary because I will soon be a very popular pop star and some day will need to make a book about myself so my fans can know how I grew up into a pop star. Because I got this only on Thursday, I’ll write the earlier entries from memory. Monday Wheee,... | | |
| 3:05pm | [LianYL] A Costly Bargain | | | | Look what I got today for a mere ten bucks: These didn’t exactly come cheap How did I do so? This is what I received in my mail a few days ago: “Dear Members, It is with a heavy heart that I have to inform you that we have decided to move our business out of NUS Coop. The reason is another... |
| 1:28pm | [Ascaloth] Trial Run: K-ON!, Episode 2 | | | | Having never participated in club activities before, Yui now looks forward to the first ever club she has joined, the light music club.

| 3:15pm | [Hynavian] Japanese Traditional Music Concert at NUS | | | | Last Friday, 3rd April, there was a Japanese traditional concert held at NUS Theatre 13. I got wind of this concert from my favourite sensei - the one whom I lent my raw Claymore manga to. I felt that the music concert was low key as not much promotion was done. I asked around the Faculty of Arts and... | | |
| 6:44pm | [Ascaloth] Trial Run: K-ON!, Episode 1 | | | | On this very day 3 years ago, the first episode of a seemingly unassuming school life comedy anime series aired, and it was about a high school group producing a hilariously badly-edited home movie about a combat waitress from the future. That was the precursor to what would soon become the massively... | | |
| 6:38pm | [LianYL] K-On Ep 1 Made Me Do My Term Paper | | | | It would seem that Ascaloth is keen on reviewing this series and his long essays should satisfy more of the readership here. Great excuse to stop reviewing this series. I’ll make my anime reviews short and sweet by commenting as I watch. [00:00] Ah, green frog uniforms from middle school? That’s... | | |
| 6:26pm | Oh Shit, the Trailer for Shangri-La does not Bode Well… | | | | I guess it really shows that even if Jesus drew your anime, it’ll still be a shit one if its made by GONZO. Having seen the latest trailer of Shangri-La, I’m having serious 2nd thoughts about how much I’ll like it. 1. The music doesn’t seem that good, but sometimes they grow... |
| 2:58pm | Gundam 00 Ends. Or does it? | | | | Apparently evil Jupiter aliens will invade Earth in 2010! The final episode, 25, concluded the 2 seasons of Gundam 00 and I have several points to make regarding the show. Let’s keep it real short.1. The Gundam designs are probably the most aesthetically-pleasing in a super-robo sense, ever in... | | |
| 11:38am | This Season Has been One Big Letdown. | | | | Anime that tries and fails is still infinitely more interesting than anime that just sticks to the same old formulas, be it moe-mongering, robo-shouting or power levels. I just completed a marathon of Flag, which is by far the most visually creative and detailed anime I’ve ever seen. As I know... | | |
| 9:02am | O Shit, the Fatima Figure is Hot. But is Expensive. | | | | So far, I’ve been attaining otaku nirvana, not feeling the need to purchase anymore figurines. After all, all the figurines I need are in my heart, not on the table. But I must say, the new Fatina figurine being released by Alter, is quite attractive. It comes in a set with the ugh Kaya, but each... |
