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...

Same thing, slightly different name.I found this season to be funnier, probably since I got most of the jokes this time around. I also think it had something to do with this season having a much larger (regular) cast; it was very rarely...

I really don’t like giving out number ratings and such, but in...

And it doesn’t matter what type of show, any show can be improved with good character development.Best Female Main Character Winner:...

Between waiting for some series to finish, wanting to marathon a couple of missed series, and catching the new season of anime – I didn’t have the room in my writing time to do this until now. I also wanted to be...

I was advised by other well-intended bloggers to avoid Minamike Okawari, so I decided to skip it. It turned out that Asread didn’t do a very good job of Minamike Okawari. However, after having watched Minamike, and...

Do we wonder if 2008 was a good year for anime? Without a doubt, 2008 was no 2007, yet there was an abundance of good in 2008. Where did 2008 win, and why will I remember this year in anime?In the SeasonFor my considerations,...

There are a number of interesting results within the list, but the top and bottom are likely not surprising.These numbers are the number of DVDs sold over the...

Mizuki Nana tie-in, or simply coincidence?)I refuse to believe Mako-chan is a trap. It’s like saying the Earth is flat or that Sakura Diaries...

I missed the first season and knew that both series were written by the same author, Koharu Sakuraba. Lack of time prevented me to do so and Sat, 19 Jul 2008 20:55:29 GMT
