| 6:29am | Some quick first impressions | | | | So, right now I managed to see the first episodes from a couple of shows the shows that will be starting to air this season. If I have anything to say about it, it will be this: my expectations were totally wrong. The dull-looking series turned out to have a lot of potential, while the cool looking | | |
| 11:25pm | Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind Review - 77/100 | | | | What we have here, is a movie that takes place 1000 years into the future. The phenomena called the sea of decay, a huge forest full of highly toxic plants who breathe out poisonous gasses and which is swarmed with huge insects, has devoured a great part of the earth. What do humans generally do |
| 7:07am | Revolutionary Girl Utena - 26 | | | | There seem to be an aweful lot of recycled scenes in this season: the car scene at the beginning, the bed scene, the student council scene, the second-car scene, the yaoi-ness of Touga and Akio (>. |
| 7:56pm | Mahou Shoujotai Review - 97/100 | | | | This is it: probably one of the best anime ever. At first glance this is just your average fantasy story, but it's so much more. The duration of one episode is, unlike most, just eight minutes, and still, in those eight minutes the creators manage to put something that other anime only can |
| 7:31pm | Fruits Basket Review - 73/100 | | | | Fruits Basket, the concept of a family in which the members turn into an animal of the chinese zodiac when they hug a member of the opposite sex. There isn't really a story holding this together. Just the main person living her live alongside the family, and meeting different family members. |
| 6:40am | Mahou Shoujotai - 40 | | | | "There's one way to make everyone happy. Each person has to make the person dear to them happy with their own strenght. If you make your one special person happy like that, then everyone can become happy. Definately." - AliceAnd so we come to the ending of Mahou Shoujotai. I kindof feared |
| 6:14am | Jigoku Shoujo - 07 | | | | This episode was so cool. It starts out as a regular jigoku-shoujo story. A girl with a talent for acting gets surpressed by her famous adoptive mother. We see her acces the website and call Emna Ai. The same ritual, blah blah. But somehow the pacing is a bit too fast, and a few questions are left | | |
| 5:32am | Fruits Basket Revies - 73/100 | | | | Fruits Basket, the concept of a family in which the members turn into an animal of the chinese zodiac when they hug a member of the opposite sex. There isn't really a story holding this together. Just the main person living her live alongside the family, and meeting different family members. |
| 5:21am | Revolutionary Girl Utena - 25 | | | | Like I said before: it's been a long time since I saw the last episode of this. I believed that I'd seen up to number twenty-three. Just now I realize that I made a slight error in my calculations, making me miss the twenty-third one. It would probably have featured the downfall of the |
| 8:17am | Mahou Shoujotai - 39 | | | | WHAT!?! Oh my GOD NO! Everything makes sense now, but still, not that! Aargh! *screams*Ahem. Now that that's out, today has been the best episode thus far. A lot of things get explained, and things are starting to make sense now. The plot twist is incredibly sad. Alice also makes a lot of |
| 8:02am | Law of Ueki - 32 | | | | This episode was a bit too full of coincidences. For example, I'd like to have had a reason for why Pekol and Gurano have such matching powers. It's also a bit strange that Mori has to be with every fight. Okay, she'll make sure of some good laughs, but it still irks me.I'm |
| 7:09am | Revolutionary Girl Utena - 24 | | | | Yes, I know. This anime is nine years old. Everybody must've seen this by now. Well, make that everone but me. Blame Holland's crappy anime-industry.The reason why I decided to blog this series is simple: because I like it. This anime is pure style and elegance. The drama scenes work |
