| 12:32am | Aria the Animation: Episode 10 | | | | Ai earns points with me for not doing well in cold weather. It’s always nice when a character and I have something in common. The opening theme with its soothing song and different animation each episode never fails to impress. Winter is approaching, and the Undines are already donning their... | | |
| 8:51pm | Ruki is back with more Aria-licious stuff! |  | | | It has almost been four months! So here is a little update to what I’ve been doing and a series of excuses as to why I’ve stopped updating Ruki. But first, more important matters… The 2009 Aria Calendar by CDS is now available for pre-order. CDS has quite a few artists with unique styles which... | | |
| 4:21pm | Impz first winter impressions - Genji Monogatari, Man-Whore ALERT!!! |  | | | This is actually Genji. A guy. Yes, the character design is a tad quirky. By the way, this is Thirteensugars’ idea for the title because she was screaming man-whore for the whole twenty minutes of this show (we were watching it together). I am literally going crazy with the number of “THIS... | | |
| 4:10am | Why I Love Anime: Letter A | | | | 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... | | |
| 12:27am | Aria the Animation: Episode 9 | | | | There are times when I wonder what the draw on an episode such as this one is. It’s very enjoyable. It’s a day in the life of characters. There’s a goal for the characters which is what keeps them going from day to day, but that all fades into the background in this kind of episode.... | | |
| 8:55am | ARIA the Natural 05 - O Green World | | | | Aria the Natural 2 appealed to my sense of beauty and adventure of locations. Episode 5, though, was something much more specific - an episode about The Spot.In the second half of Aria the Natural 5, Akari and Alicia go to an island and attempt to find a spot Alicia had been before that was | | |
| 7:55pm | ARIA the Natural 02 - Mouth of the Architect | | | | Since about episode 7 of the first season, there has been nary a dull moment in Aria (though ep 4 of Natural was kinda meh). All eps involving travelling the city or character bonding are full of warmth and beauty and all the crap that’s made this show an insane phenomenon amongst like 50% of ... | | |
| 12:01am | Aria the Animation: Episode 8 | | | | Previously, I looked at President Aria’s actions as being something to look at while others are talking, but this episode solidly presents him with a greater level of intelligence than an ordinary animal would have. It’s surprising that a series with as many info-dumps as Aria the Animation... | | |
| 6:30pm | Preemptive ABA 2009 Nominations | | | | Black is lelangir. ←[107] see lolikit’s here. Blue is lolikitsune. “Ne, lelangir-san, lelangir-san~!” “Nani, eruke?” “For the awards, do you nominate your favorites or the ‘objective’ best?” “wut” Here, lolikit and lelangir take a look... | | |
| 11:52pm | Aria the Animation: Episode 7 | | | | Finally, an episode that doesn’t give extreme world-building or character building. Instead, what is already known about the characters is used for an easygoing episode. This is the first episode to give me the same kind of feel that came with episode one. It’s the experiences in Neo-Venezia... | | |
| 7:35pm | ARIA the COMPLETION | | | | I’m horrifically, hilariously late to the Aria the ORIGINATION post-party, as per usual, so I’m pretty sure that everything I say will have been said before, but that never stopped me before. I feel like Ai-chan in the picture above (who wears the Aria Company outfit quite nicely, I must... | | |
| 2:03am | Best anime of 2008, and the anime year in review, part 1. | | | | Well, at the stroke of midnight, 2008 ended and the new year began, and whether you spent the night partying with family and friends or you spent your time reflecting on the past year, I hope you enjoyed the night. To me, this time of the year makes me feel reflective... | | |
| 8:38am | 2008: Year in Review |  | | | 2008 was a interesting year for anime, as there were sequels to previous seasons of many series this year, along with new orginal shows, and manga adapted shows also. I thought that as a whole, anime in 2008 offered something for everyone. Best Male Lead: Lelouch Lamperouge (Code Geass R 2) Runner... | | |
