| 4:37am | Bamboo Blade - 26 | | | | For a final episode, this didn’t really feel like a final episode with it’s unusual slow pacing, but given that most of the action was resolved last episode, this is more of a winding down of the series. Starting off with Rin and Tamaki’s little date to watch the Blade Braver movie.... | | |
| 12:09pm | My Delusions as a Fanboy: These Goggles Actually Do Something |  | | | Written by TheBigN I’d like to think that it’s common knowledge that as we are all separate individuals, we each have our own way of looking at the world. By extension of that, more often than not, we can see the world in a way that makes sense to us, irrespective of how things actually... | | |
| 10:14pm | [Rapidfire] KyoAni dream remakes, Bamboo Blade, Fanime | | | | A new feature that will undoubtedly die past its second post or so, Rapidfire is basically an evolution of the Track Two theory in being a bunch of short posts that wouldn’t make it on their own, collected into one post. All we need now is those crazy Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei segment titles.... | | |

| 1:57pm | BAMBOO BLADE ends |  | | | Ishida-sensei disappears for half a year, until things die down a bit. In the meantime, Yoshikawa-sensei takes over the role of advisor, surprisingly she got married to Ishibashi-sensei and they’re already expecting a child! Hayai! Tama-chan is now a sophomore, and she’s enjoying the role.... | | |
| 9:01am | Bamboo Blade - 25 | | | | This had to be one of the most exciting episodes for Bamboo Blade as not only did we have some awesome matches, we also resolved the rivalry between characters. Miyako was the real hero this episode and I guess I was wrong about her not winning any matches throughout the series. Winning against Carrie... | | |
| 11:03pm | Bamboo Blade 26 | | | | The Muroe Kendo Club is now Dan The Man’s harem! Totali’s already written a great summary so not much add here. I was pretty surprised that the two newbies were the younger siblings of the two troublemakers. I was thinking that Shinobu sounded just like Aika from ARIA and it was indeed... | | |
| 9:53pm | Bamboo Blade Review - 71/100 | | | | Ah, Bamboo Blade. You had the potential to become interesting when you started, though something went wrong. The flaws for this series are a bit more subtle than usual, and I’m still not 100% sure what it was that really caused the downfall for this series. If I had to guess, then it’s... | | |
| 3:18pm | March Summary | | | | And with this, the season is nearly over. There are still a few series left to finish, but they should close off in a few days from now. Overall, I must say that it’s been an interesting half year, and nothing like the spring-season that preceded it. It feels like there were less ground-breaking... | | |
| 11:24pm | Bamboo Blade 22- Best outcome | | | | Wow, I am so glad that Tama-chan lost that match because that would have been the most realistic of outcomes since for the longest time various characters in the show have been calling Tama-chan strong, unbeatable, and what not. So, having her finally lose a match was the best possible outcome for... | | |
| 5:07am | Bamboo Blade 24, 25 - a slap in the face - my face. |  | | | Oh MaiWait a second, I meant, omaiiya, that’s not right either. I meant, oh my goodness. Azuma really tells Miyamiya, and in the same process, told me. “You can’t decide that on your own!” “Twice and you’re gonna quit?” “You wanna quit? You can decide... | | |
| 10:04am | More Watsuki Praise and a Criticism of the Fanbases | | | | Japan? We need to talk. Have a seat. It has come to my attention that you have shown a lack of appreciation for some of the finer members of your community. Among these is one Nobuhiro Watsuki. I’ve looked into the case of Busou Renkin, and my associate Dio Bravo has written up an excellent analysis... | | |
