| 3:57pm | Hunter x Hunter 80 – Cold-Blooded | | | | I think I read something in the past that suggests it may be possible that humans are conscious for several seconds following decapitation. Not sure they’d be this conscious, but whatever. His head was ripped off by a giant ant creature; let the man have a few seconds to soak it in. So, um, fuck.... | | |
| 12:44pm | Attack on Titan 2nd Trailer | | | | A new trailer has been released for the upcoming “Attack on Titan” or “Shingeki no Kyojin (進撃の巨人)” anime series. The quality of the animation looks really good as expected from Production I.G. The series is a survival battle story between humans and giants, and is... | | |
| 7:47am | Maoyu, take it out and trade |  | | | Maoyu is really interesting. Maou, or demon king, is actually a girl, or queen, demon queen, and she was like a Cleopatra, well, she didn’t roll off from the carpet, but yes, she used her abundant oppai to break the hero’s will to fight. And her final plan is to end the war between the... | | |
| 3:51pm | “Attack on Titan” to Air Apr 2013 | | | | We have already seen the impressive trailer for the upcoming anime series “Attack on Titan (進撃の巨人)”. The official website has been launched with a confirmed airing date of April 2013. The series is being co-produced by WIT STUDIO and Production I.G. The series is being directed... | | |
| 5:30pm | Ongoing Investigations: Case #196 | | | | I have started watching Fullmetal Alchemist (eps. 1-14), the first series by Bones. I had actually seen about 20 or so episodes a couple of years back, but I’m starting again from the beginning. It is a show from a period of anime where I was a little out of the circle so it has been on the “to... | | |
| 12:01am | One more time! | | | | And now we bid farewell to another year and, quite frankly, one I’m quite happy to see the back of. It started well enough but the later half is definitely one I’ll be happy to forget. But enough about that, time to look back at the non-figure stuff which have caught my attention over the... | | |
| 1:34pm | Jormungand 24 |  | | | So, in a choice between the devil you’re tired of, and the devil that over-promises, Jonah chose the latter. Well, that caps up the year-long journey that was Jormungand. It was an interesting enough show that I first thought would be something on the lines of Black Lagoon, only more political... | | |
| 7:50pm | Black Lagoon Manga to Resume | | | | Black Lagoon mangaka’s Hiroe Rei (広江 礼威) has announced that he will be resuming work on the manga series starting January or February. The manga series had originally been on hiatsu since the middle of 2010. Hope that once the manga series continue with its serialisation, we can get... | | |

The series is a survival battle story between humans and giants. The series is being co-produced by WIT STUDIO... | | |
| 5:25am | Fall Anime Watching Report | | | | We’re entering the final month of the fall season so it’s time for me to come of the woodwork and write a bit about what I’ve been watching (and falling behind on). My favorite show so far has been Girls und Panzer. I’ve kept up with it the most regularly out of the ones I’m... | | |
| 3:39pm | Slicing Life and Narrative Force | | | | I think it comes down to this. I would like to just lay out my overall thoughts on this topic rather than simply object to what seems like an useful term. In a nutshell, slice of life is a metaphor, a tortured one, if you will. It describes the kind of pacing and descriptive narratives in which the... | | |

| 5:56am | Anime For People Who Hate Anime | | | | This is a guest post from Justin of Organization Anti-Social Geniuses. So I’m going to play along with a game that took place a week and a half ago. You see, Japan Powered wrote a post about anime for people who hate anime, and then Yumeka joined in and offered some suggestions as well. Let’s... | | |
| 7:58am | Inushinde’s Top 30 Anime | | | | Of the thousands of anime series, movies, OVAs and specials that dot history from the 60s to the modern day, I have only seen scant over 300. That’s barely a blip on the radar, and hardly something to be floored by, even if my regular anime viewing has only been going on for around four years. Of... | | |
