| 3:50pm | Yen Plus Issue 06 January ‘09 - Thoughts & Impressions | | | | This is my third catch up post on the Yen Plus Anthology. I’m not to keen on the One Fine Day manhwa cover, it looks nice true, but something is lacking from it. The Sumomomo cover is a bit better, but only cause it’s got my fave megami on it The Manhwa Side Starting off with the manhwa side... | | |
| 5:00pm | Saki - Meido Awesomeness |  | | | This latest episode of Saki really impressed me. First off, before the good part of the episode actually started I wanted to comment about the meido aspect of this episode, however then the episode went far beyond that. It wasn’t just a fan service episode with the meido costumes; it actually was... | | |
| 5:19am | SDB on Saki 01 |  | | | Chizumatic: And I just watched the first [episode]. And you know what? It was really good! As to the yuri elements, well, yeah there’s some of that. It’s suggestive to the people who are looking for yuri elements, but it can also be read completely innocently. The initial story of recruitment... | | |
| 11:21am | Cool Products Wednesday, April 15, 2009 | | | | Here are today's "really cool products" that I've picked out for you, out of the 30+ new items we've added to the J-List and JBOX.com sites today. Note that some products may be "not safe for work" but that all links will allow you to redirect yourself either to the J-List or JBOX.com websites. To see... | | |
| 10:18pm | Spring 2009 | | | | Well, I believe I’ve sampled most everything I’d like to take in this season. I’m going to be lazy here and just post my stream of impressions/scrobblings/etc. Individual series can be filtered in the view. And to wrap-up, in order of priority: Fullmetal Alchemist (2009) No doubt... | | |
| 2:46am | Spring 2009 Anime Impressions – Saki | | | | The first of my spring 2009 anime impressions covers one of Gonzo’s new shows. As you probably know, Gonzo is struggling for their survival and they’re betting the house on their spring shows. Will this inspire Gonzo to create great anime or will they stick to what got them in trouble in the first... | | |
| 7:49am | Saki - Drenched Breasts and Mahjong | | | | Bal shall be my Saki-face. The parade of new series continues as GONZO rolls out Saki, which appears to be a mahjong-themed school life/competition anime - much less slice-of-lifeish than I expected though, instead of K-ON! it sort of reminds me of Bamboo Blade. But to cut things short for you, let’s... | | |
| 2:51pm | TBE’s Mega Spring Anime Preview 2009 |  | | | A tad late for this but is better than never, March is here and what are our own picks of the anime in Spring. A quick breakdown on the list and I realized that there a couple of interesting animes out there. Lets see what we have in our mega spring anime preview. Titles are arranged randomly. Navigation... | | |
| 3:38am | Funimation licenses God, Planet | | | | OK, Funimation didn’t quite license that much, but they went on yet another licensing spree today, picking up both Tower of Druaga shows, Dragonaut - The Resonance, and Blassreiter from GONZO and Bamboo Blade from D. Rights. Now, personally, I’m not sure if any of these are actually good... | | |
| 11:07pm | Boobs to hit R1 | | | | Really, Funimation? Dragonaut? Seriously? Was it cheap? Were you forced to pick it up as part of a package deal? Have you merely gone crazy? Slightly more interesting is probably the fact that they’ve also picked up the two Duraga series and Blassreiter, both of which have been available to watch... | | |
| 7:38am | Eri Kawai Memorial Album, "Himawari" | | | | As a huge ARIA fan I was surprised and saddened last year to hear the news of Eri Kawai's death. I still don't know much about it but I'm fairly sure she was very young, and it really came out of nowhere. As I was browsing Anime News Network I saw that Victor Entertainment has released... | | |
| 8:32am | Best in Anime 2008 – Part 7: Top Anime #5 - #1 | | | | If Kure-nai hadn't flubbed it's ending so badly, it might have made the listWe’re finally here, the last part of my reflection on the best anime of 2008 – the top 5 anime. If you’ve looked at the other parts then this list probably won’t be much of a shock so let’s not waste anymore... | | |
| 7:52pm | Tempting Figures I Shouldn’t Buy | | | | For some reason or another the other day I found myself doing the internet equivalent of window-shopping and once again was entranced by the allure of PVC beauties. I failed to mention it in my Goals for ‘09 post but I want to reduce the amount I spend on otaku goods. However any such prospect... | | |
