| 9:01am | Negative Mood and It’s Effect on Watching Anime | | | | There are a lot of factors that effect our enjoyment in watching anime, be it internal factors like the appeal of the characters or the settings of the anime world, to external factors like the time and place in which we watch them, quality of the video and so on. One of the most important external... | | |
| 10:22pm | Backlogging Anime: Why and Taking a Look Back | | | | Several weeks ago, Kai shared his thoughts about the anime he put on his backlog. During my anime blogging career, I have picked up shows and on some occasions, get pushed to the backlog. There are many reasons I end up doing this, which I will share along with some notable Anime I backlogged. (Image... | | |
| 2:45am | Talking Points: Suisei no Gargantia – Episode 5 | | | | Editor’s Note: I’m glad everyone has been enjoying Talking Points! These articles feel a lot more engaging to write because I feel like I’m writing ‘to’ people instead of ‘at’ them. That doesn’t really make too much sense, but I hope you all get the gist!... | | |
| 5:40pm | Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet episode 4 – Eeyashickay | | | | What’s that you you losers use for those crappy 4-koma anime? You know, the weeaboo term you employ to justify why nothing interesting ever happens but it makes you feel nice? The calm you supposedly feel that could just as easily be gotten by staring at a brick wall? IyaIyacake? Iyakishit? Iyashikei?... | | |
| 1:00pm | Ao No Exorcist Episode 7 | | | | Great Episode this time and it seems that it's back on track as it's not showing away fillers again. The cram school for the exorcist class will come to an end as it's only six weeks left before the summer break starts and because of that there's a lot of rigorous practical tests given.... | | |
| 8:27pm | Kaori Yuki MMF: Introduction | | | | When you search basic information about Kaori Yuki on wikipedia, you’re encountered with a semi-blank page. I’ve mentioned that before in the Call for Participation. If something you want doesn’t exist, the only solution you have is to create it yourself. I am a bit lucky, since I... | | |
| 2:41am | Arata Kangatari - 02 | | | | Two episodes in, my feelings about Arata Kangatari are pretty much unchanged from where they were a week ago.OP: "GENESIS ARIA" by Sphere As much as I want to focus on the anime independent of anything else, I can't help but be a bit preoccupied with the fascination question of just what Satelight... | | |
| 2:17am | Spring 2013 — First Impressions | | | | As usual, here’s my rankings of the season’s new shows based on the first couple episodes. You can click the links for details, so I’ll keep the discussion of each short. We’ll see how well this matches my ending thoughts. Ongoing Series: Chihayafuru, Hunter X Hunter, Space Bros Shorts: Don’t... | | |
| 10:51am | A Brief History of Eroge | | | | J-List has been involved with licensing and translating visual novels -- in their ecchi form they're known as bishoujo games, dating-sim games or eroge, though the genre encompasses all manner of games -- since we started out back in 1996, and we think they're a great way to connect with Japan. The... | | |
| 5:00am | Suisei no Gargantia 02 — Eating Corpses | | | | My favorite scene so far. This show’s doing great at showing how different their respective cultures are. One lives on the sea, and one lives in the sea of space. It’s interesting that we’re getting a similar cultural exchange at the moment with Hataraku Maou-sama as well. It was... | | |
| 6:00pm | Photo Kano | | | | Originally a dating sim game for the PSP with an enhanced version for the PlayStation Vita coming out soon, ‘フォトカノ’ already received several manga adaptations and now gets the anime treatment. One cannot deny that anime adaptations of eroge or dating sims are a dime a dozen, most... | | |
| 11:00pm | Suisei no Gargantia — First Impressions | | | | A few weeks ago, I was supposedly on FAPcast to talk about previewing this season. Presumably because my internet eviscerated itself early in the recording process, I did not get the chance to talk about most of the shows I was looking forward to. If I had, you would have know that I was pretty hyped... | | |
| 2:46pm | Kai’s Anime Backlog | | | | Backlogs, who wouldn’t have them? Especially with time constraints, backlogs tend to grow overwhelmingly huge over the long term and before we know it, we are faced with an almost unbreakable wall of piled up unwatched anime. During the winter season, I decided to pick as less anime as possible... | | |
| 8:00pm | City-sized ships, anglerfish, girls … und panzer? | | | | I’ll just say it: the girls with guns genre is pretty well-represented in anime. Noir, Madlax and El Cazador de la Bruja were all stylish depictions of girls with guns that managed to present some mature themes and relationships while not skimping on the stylish action, and though the trilogy... | | |
| 11:00pm | intermissions: stop and smile. | | | | Source: [Nihihi-] by Nerima http://www.pixiv.net/member_il lust.php?mode=medium&illus t_id=23268475Stop. Stop whatever you’re doing. Put down everything and just smile. Did you know that smiling releases endorphins, which produce feelings of happiness in your body? Did you now? You’re... | | |
