Tokyo Magnitude is one of those series. It’s based on a “what-if” scenario: what if modern-day Tokyo were to be hit by a massive earthquake? This actually...

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...

Sure they might have released a few shit shows and such, but during their prime they released some great stuff, and there is always that potential to release something great here...

Anime News Network reports that the second airing of Haruhi is only going to take up 28 episodes. Since there now have been fourteen episodes of the second season aired, a quick bit of math shows that the final episodes are going to be the ones that were left... Sun, 13 Sep 2009 12:57:26 GMT http://nyannyan.animeblogger.net/?p=978 http://nyannyan.animeblogger.net/?p=978 This episode of 07 Ghost starts off with Bishop Lance deciding weather or not bishop candidate’s pass or fail the bishop exam/test. I thought it was interesting that this episode focused on Liam and Ouida passing the bishops exam/test, because these brothers were originally featured in episode nineteen,...

I think it was a really straight forward show. It was far from being a disappointment I’d...

Not a complete collapse, but hardly...

Man, those movies really are damn long, clocking at 2 hours plus each. So well. How were they? Pretty good actually considering the amount of source material they had to work with. I’ve already finished reading the whole manga...

The different approaches to animated filmmaking learned at each respective studio consequently provide the foundation for these directors. Some started out at Toei Doga but migrated...

I’ve been waiting for this for more than four months, but Birdy the Mighty Decode’s OVA is finally here. While it’s not exactly what I expected it to be, I don’t care. It’s always awesome to see more of your favourite series of the year.So yeah, basically this...

No question possible. I knew that we could expect fight scenes in this episode, but that it would be this intense, and that it would push the plot into that kind of direction And to think that nearly the entire...

I've been curious about it for a long time, and finally got the chance to watch the movie from 1983 and the two OVAs from 1989 today. They're both very different but very nice in their own ways, and are a time capsule...
