| 10:17pm | Allison to Lillia - Episode 5 | | | | I'll be the first to confess that I've regularly been giving Allison to Lillia both barrels on this 'Blog, and (I'd like to think) with very good reason - Indeed, were in not for wanting to see how the Lillia arc which will make up the second half of the series pans out, I would almost certainly have... | | |
| 5:51pm | Allison & Lillia- 05 |  | | | This episode marks a beginning of a new arc. Some time has passed since the war officially ended. The winter break is here and Wil is going on a trip (financed by Allison). Of course Allison isn’t that selfless and soon after Wil arrives he’s abducted by people who turn out to be Allison’s... | | |
| 6:00pm | When the sky turned blue | | | | Gone a bit quiet around here, ain’t it? Last update was a couple of weeks ago, so I figured I’d pop-in a quick “Hello, not dead yet”. The truth is that, since finishing Ghost Hound, I’ve not been watching nearly enough (good) anime, so, aside from a few sarcastic paragraphs,... | | |
| 11:08am | I can’t be arsed to write a proper post so read these blogs instead | | | | There are a number of things I could do as a reaction to burn-out (if that’s what I have) but I think recommending new additions to my own feedreader is the most constructive. My answer to everything at the moment is “I can’t be arsed.” Do that post on Kurenai I promised to write?... | | |
| 1:20am | Allison and Lillia - 05: New Adventure | | | | New Adventure of Allison and Lillia Will. Show me Lillia already, damn it!The last arc still left me with a bland taste in the mouth. Episode one started with a promising premise, but the story deflated faster than Allison’s confessions. Well, at least the story keeps trying just like Allison... | | |

| 9:35pm | Allison to Lillia - 06 | | | | So, this series is never going to become a classic; it’s a bit too sloppy for that (remember that girl from the last episode? Well, she happens to be a princess). Still, it knows how to tell a story and it’s got a charming cast. That’s enough for me. :) This episode concludes the... | | |
| 1:58am | Advisory | | | | The good news: Not only can I walk (albeit slowly, and with a cane), but as of today I can ride my bike again. The bad news: Posting here will continue to be spasmodic. I plan to walk and bike as much as possible for the next several weeks to regain strength and flexibility. Other recreations, including... | | |
| 10:29pm | Allison and Lillia - 04: Featuring Planes that Fly Backward | | | | The propeller is on top, but which direction do you think it is going?And that’s about as much content as there is since the first episode of Allison and Lillia.I can’t believe the fourth episode is the end of this arc of the story. It started strong in the first episode, prompting interesting—even... | | |
| 9:00pm | Allison to Lillia 04: Ace of Aces |  | | | Nuts, I wanted you to buzz the tower That was one of the better dogfights I have seen in a while. It may not be as flashy as those in Macross F but both Allison and Benedict flew magnificently and displayed their fighter pilot prowess. More on that later, but I am surprised that they decide to wrap up... | | |
| 8:07am | Allison to Lillia - 05 | | | | With this episode, I guess that we’ve reached the second novel of the original “Allison”-series. It does worry me a bit that the creators are trying to stuff 10 volumes of light-novel material into just twenty-six episodes (For the sake of comparison: Soul Eater with its 11 volumes... | | |
| 7:56am | Allison to Lillia 4 | | | | Peeping Tom Picking up from last episode, Lieutenant Love Letter, I mean Ker, easily catches up to Allison and Wil. After a brief exchange of words, their dogfight begins. Allison manages to outsmart Ker, however, pulling a mid-air stall, which forces Ker into Allison's sights. She then proceeds... | | |
| 1:52pm | April Summary | | | | So, most series have had four episodes aired now. So far, the season is looking quite promising, with many good series that have debuted. I’ve been noticing an on-going trend though, about how much more 13 episode-series appear. It’s a shame, because a lot of these series could have easily been... | | |
| 7:10pm | Beginning of Spring Season | | | | or should I say the ultimate yaoi season? This is the probably the best anime season for gay otaku! not even half the shows are watchable by the straight audience and even from them, not even half are not shounen/harem crap. A very disappointing season in general. To sum it up:Yaoi: Himitsu, Junjou... | | |
