http://antenna.animeblogger.net/ Series Asatte no Houkou - An aggregation of content from anime blogs. http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss AnimeBlogger.net Antenna http://hashihime.blogspot.com/2009/09/57-fall-anime-story-staff-cast-trailer.html http://hashihime.blogspot.com/2009/09/57-fall-anime-story-staff-cast-trailer.html There are more new shows this fall than in any season over the past few years. But I'm not sure the quality -- or at least the appeal to my taste -- will be that high. I don't see any shows I expect to be as good as the great shows of this past summer season, such as Aoi Hana and Bakemonogatari. But...

Ioka-who? I don’t blame you. Served without fanservice and mecha, Asatte no houkou had only good drama, pseudo-lolis and strong characterisation to draw viewers. In other words, it wasn’t as popular... Tue, 20 Jan 2009 16:36:47 GMT http://himitsu.animeblogger.net/?p=38 http://himitsu.animeblogger.net/?p=38 No direct answer to the common question of “why do you enjoy anime?”. If an anime fan thinks deeply into it, it’s a rather silly question. It’s like asking someone; “do you enjoy TV? Movies? How about music?”. The only possible downfall is the form of media. You might...

Last year, there were true tears and Spice & Wolf. Here are some of this year's possibilities, followed by a complete preview of almost all the new shows:-- Genji Monogatari Sennenki is a new anime based... Sun, 28 Dec 2008 03:08:00 GMT http://hontouni.com/taihendesu/?p=1048 http://hontouni.com/taihendesu/?p=1048 Since the Asatte no Houkou DVD boxset appeared at my favourite anime DVD shop about a year ago, I’ve never stopped agonising over it. The hurdle? A prohibitive pricetag of S$160. I’m glad I held out for so long since I bought the boxset for S$95 today - a staggering 40% in savings. Reviewing...

The ¥12,000 question -Is Asatte no houkou worth ¥12,000?First, some background. Despite the non-siscon end,... Sat, 27 Sep 2008 16:04:15 GMT http://hontouni.com/taihendesu/?p=847 http://hontouni.com/taihendesu/?p=847 A common thread runs through my favourite anime scenes - Great music. I remember choking up in Asatte no Houkou ep 8 as “Kasa” hit a crescendo during a very poignant moment; cheering on Sasuke as he battled Orochimaru in ep 29 against the high tension flute notes of the Naruto soundtrack...

Sort of like what Darry’s Derailment does, just a little bit of counting down on anime-related musical notes the past few months. Links for the actual products are going to be affiliated links :x6. I dig Momoi’s Cover Best Live DVD. It’s always a happy event when...

That I still found Asatte no Houkou so enjoyable despite liking only Shouko is a testament to J.C. Staff’s storytelling abilities. I’m pleased the plot... Sun, 24 Aug 2008 00:13:23 GMT http://hontouni.com/taihendesu/?p=670 http://hontouni.com/taihendesu/?p=670 One of my anime-related dreams is to raise a daughter beautiful both in body and soul like Kotori (DCSS), Karada (Asatte no houkou) or Kanami (Scryed). Mrs Stripey objects every time I bring it up. Not because it’s an impossible task (with her, I have 50% chance :P). but because such gentle-kindness...

Sometimes even for a crappy TV anime. It costs good money, and sometimes it shows.And this year the choice is easy. If I was to pick out an anime title for its original soundtracks, it would...

As bj0rn has said, tsundere boners. See Lucky Star for more details. Also, after... Fri, 12 Oct 2007 10:44:34 GMT http://community.livejournal.com/yamaki_anime/38433.html http://community.livejournal.com/yamaki_anime/38433.html Some anime fans celebrate Moe Day on the 10th of October every year. Why? Well, if you tear the word "萌"(moe) apart, you'll get "十月十日" which is 10 of October in both Chinese and Japanese kanji, and there goes Moe Day. Not many anime fans are aware of the fact!The Saimoe...

Last month, I received the comment that my ratings have been a tad too high, though I must say that they’ve possibly become even higher. But then again, September has been the best month in terms of anime for me...

Wonder what anime should I marathon watch next? RahXephon? Another run of Evangelion? Or maybe something more contemporary...

They’re all related to 5cm, but I’ve noticed two things they’ve neglected to point out, and this will... Tue, 04 Sep 2007 09:43:07 GMT
