| 10:33pm | Actress Again: Counting the Days | | | | Just a reminder that it’s out in Moonland on PS2 now. It has to get ported to PC, right? RIGHT!? Hopefully only about 365 more days to go. 365 long Ryougi, school girl Akiha, and Archetype:Earth free days. *sigh* |
| 4:28am | GA Art Design Class #07 — Pictures at an Exhibition | | | | Now with less Emerson, Lake, and Palmer. I had this done about 7 hours ago, but like an imbecile, I thought to myself that I could wait a little while and get a real raw. Oops. Impressions: Yeah, so my Japanese got quite the workout this episode. My attention span is usually about 45 seconds on... |
| 11:22pm | Tears to Tiara #20 — Memnoch | | | | Only with 99% less vampire sex. Impressions: Okay, it actually shares very little with Memnoch, aside from angels rebelling against God other angels to go chill out with humans. I’m willing to give this episode a free pass because, while I did find the original scene fairly interesting, watching... |
| 7:54pm | Princess Lover! #07 — Royal Bore | | | | Oh lord, politics. Hit it with a stick. Impressions: A rather uninteresting transitional episode leading into what should be far far more interesting next week, if for no other reason than the cast apparently puts on motorcycle jumpsuits and fights crime. Is anybody else sensing that this show is... | | |
| 11:53pm | Zan Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei #07 — Dammit, Horie | | | | She’s bloody everywhere this season. Impressions: The first part was kind of odd; simultaneously mundane as well as increasingly bizarre. It started out being just about getting nailed with unexpected extra costs (like having to buy ice after buying meat from Horie Yui, or ink for a printer),... | | |
| 9:10pm | Manageable Modern Magic #06 — “This is FOO STYLE” | | | | Indeed. Indeed it is. Impressions: As if the altered reality wasn’t weird enough, Giblets ended up being a ghost script within the ghost script with the master plan of eating all the other ghost scripts and was foiled by Yumiko’s own ghost script leading the other ghost scripts back out... |
| 6:11pm | Comiket 76 — Touhou Hisoutensoku Impressions | | | | Let the catfish reign.Well, I guess let’s start with the good. I like the new spellcard system where you break the attacks in progress and then get about 5 seconds to lay down some real hurt on the enemy. Plus five new characters (Sanae, Cirno, China, Suwako, and Utsuho) to add in some more variety,... |
| 4:47pm | Comiket 76 — Undefined Fantastic Object Impressions | | | | It wasn’t an alien, it was a chimera. Clearly. My initial thought is that I’m sad that the time has come when Zun has produced something that my laptop cannot handle. It actually runs pretty well for the first three stages, then things go to hell in a handbasket. Danmakufu has the same memory... |
| 4:28am | Comiket 76 — Let the Touhou Spam Commence | | | | I am so not in the mood to separate the wheat from the chaff tonight. Something about princesses, sailors, and China fighting a whale. Or something. I’ll deal with it once the kerfuffle (44 points + double word score + 50 for over 7 letters) settles, likely tomorrow midday or so. A few more... |
| 4:27am | Fight Ippatsu! Juuden-chan!! #08 — Harmless | | | | And armless. Impressions: A pretty silly episode whose main purpose was to start Plug and Sentou into their predestined couplehood which does annoy me a little bit because Iono really really deserves Sentou still. I suppose Sentou could have a parallel world mistress on the side. I think the high... | | |
| 11:44pm | When the Seagulls Cry #07 — Motherhood | | | | Smack that brat. Impressions: Like much of this overall episode/runthrough, a very Rosa heavy episode, which works out decently enough because watching Maria getting the snot slapped out of her never gets old. I think they could have done a bit more with Battler and Beatrice’s side of things,... |
| 10:50pm | Comiket 76 Preview Addendum: Touhou Edition | | | | Fettgans at Doujinsuki over in Franceland apparently more patience or drive than I do and has been compiling a preview list of ]the upcoming games at Comiket as well. Of note is his list of the Touhou themed ones that I didn’t find wading through 50 pages of random other Touhou stuff to track... |
| 10:44pm | GA Art Design Class #06 — Class Warfare | | | | Boo. Down with the outsiders. Impressions: I said it before and I’ll say it again, I really don’t like Awararara’s group at all. They’re not educational, they’re not entertaining, and they take away precious time that could be spent watching Tomokane eat paste. They... |
| 8:35pm | Tears to Tiara #19 — ELVES ELVES ELVES | | | | And, to be fair, pie. Impressions: The main issue here is that unlike Utawarerumono, none of the characters outside of the core three ever really have any important role in the story. That’s being rather generous and giving Riannon the benefit of a doubt and assuming that a lack of a personality... | | |
| 7:36pm | Princess Lover! #06 — Dirty Ping Pong | | | | I mean that they cheat, you perverts. Sorry, my presence is mandatory at a party tonight for my newly engaged sister. If I don’t get these done now, I may not get them done until tomorrow. You’ll survive the LQ. Impressions: Well, apparently Go Hands still has some budget left, as they... | | |
