| 12:17pm | Basquash! - 26 | | | | Aww, it’s still good to see a great ending from this series, considering what an incredibly bumpy ride it’s been. The past two episodes were definitely the most visually pleasing episodes I’ve seen the past three months. Satelight really dominated in terms of Visuals during the past... |
| 9:23am | Some Quick First Impressions: Kämpfer | | | | Seitokai no Ichizon Short Synopsis: Our lead character has his own harem as a member of the student council. I was fully expecting this series to suck. The way that along with Kämpfer this was labelled as the clichéd moe show of the season, and the utterly horrid character-designs made me expect... |
| 8:53pm | Umineko no Naku Koro ni - 14 | | | | Whoa, talk about turning the chessboard upside-down. This episode pulled a lot of things that I suspected that the creators were saving for much later. This episode seems to be the real start of this series.With this episode, this show gained a whole new dimension. So yeah, Battler finally started... |
| 7:16pm | September Summary | | | | Looking back at the past six months, it’s definitely been an interesting Spring and Summer Season. There weren’t any instant-classics, but still a number of outstanding series. But what I especially like about this season is the huge amount of consistently good series: a lot of series delivered,... |
| 7:19pm | My Top 20 Favourite Anime | | | | My previous top 10 was rather badly written and mostly just a fanboy-fest, so I decided to rewrite it from scratch. Because everyone seemed to find it a better idea to just go with a top 20, here is my reworked top list of the 20 anime that I consider to be the best of the best. Some notable series... |
| 6:34pm | Konnichiwa Anne - 26 | | | | I really like the World Masterpiece Theatre, but damn. There are times when it can be so goddamned cruel to its characters. It’s episodes like this that are heart-wrenching, simply because of what the characters have to go through. This was such a powerful episode, but oh my god it was hard... |
| 8:59am | Guin Saga Review - 87,5/100 | | | | Guin Saga: epic fantasy done absolutely right. It’s based on a series of light novels, counting in at a whopping 130 volumes, and these 26 episodes animate the first 19 volumes of the story. It’s a terrific combination between classic fantasy and politics, Satelight did a great job in... |
| 8:18am | Guin Saga - 26 | | | | What an ending. Out of all of the shows that ended in the past weeks that still need a second season (which really are a lot), Guin Saga deserves it the most. This episode only made this series even more intriguing, but at the same time it’s also a bit disheartening that out of all those shows,... |
| 9:38pm | Saki Review - 65/100 | | | | I’m not a big fan of moe, but that doesn’t mean that I don’t give these types of series a chance. I’ve been proven wrong often enough times about these types of shows, and there are plenty of series that may look overly chichéd and stereotypical on the outside, yet turn out... |
| 2:03pm | Full Metal Alchemist - Brotherhood - 25 | | | | Okay, I was wrong last episode: Envy didn’t die, his arm just disintegrated. Should have known. Anyway, this was a pretty exciting episode with a lot of interesting twists. Ed and Lin spend the entire episode inside Gluttony’s “stomach”, along with Envy, but apart from that... |
| 12:01pm | Cross Game - 26 | | | | I do hope that the second half of this series is going to introduce some sort of challenge for Kou, because with this episode, it’s already getting boring to watch these matches in which Kou and Azuma dominate the entire game. I tried to like this series’ baseball matches, but in the end... |
| 10:08am | Zan Sayonara Zetsubou-Sensei Review - 67,5/100 | | | | The first season of Sayonara Zetsubou-Sensei was awesome. It had wit, and came across as a really fresh comedy-series. The second season also had a number of hilarious episodes, but at the same time lost its edge, became repetitive and turned stereotypical. Season three in its turn continued to sap... |
| 8:29pm | Shin Mazinger Shougeki! Z-Hen Review - 87,5/100 | | | | I love remakes! Believe it or not, but out of all adaptations, (ignoring the obvious recaps as Dragonball Kai, of course), these type of anime nearly always try to find ways to improve on their original series, resulting in some of the most amazing series. The same goes for the new Mazinger: this... |
