| 12:09am | Soul Eater as of #12: if only SJ were this good | | | | After the disappointing excuse for a post last time, I wanted to write about one of my currently-watched series that I really look forward to every week and feel inspired by; given that I hadn’t posted a word about Soul Eater since my First Impressions post, I think it’s long overdue a mention.... | | |
| 11:41pm | Blade of the Immortal - 02: All We’ve Got Left is Revenge | | | | When the hell was it subbed? Frankly, this episode just got worse, mostly because not only did it lack both action and blood, but the background music sounded as if it was intended for a classical Italian movie rather than a samurai show set in well, history, I suppose. Manji’s question... | | |

| 7:21pm | Bleach - Chapter 320 | | | | Beauty Is So SolitaryThis chapter starts with some insight into Gin and Tousen. Gin is one of my favorite characters, because he’s one of the most interesting and one I can’t figure out even a little. The same way that I can’t really tell what he means when he says he’s glad to... | | |
| 8:17am | Comic Con: Some Rambling Final Thoughts |  | | | Sign of the times. I remember after last year’s Anime Expo hearing that, by comparison, the well-run Comic Con was a paradise compared to AX: the lines weren’t nearly as long, there were far more people but it didn’t descend into chaos, and they had professional staff running the whole... | | |
| 4:10am | NARUTO ALL STARS + ramblings about Pierrot anime scores |  | | | I’m sorry, don’t you mean five stars? False labeling aside, I couldn’t help but wonder what this was when I stumbled upon it. Checking it out over at CD Japan, I learned that this was a CD containing tracks from the NARUTO series (plus Shippuuden) and there are five of the cast performing... | | |
| 3:30am | Bleach - 182 |  | | | Summary:Ichigo, Rukia, and Shuu are currently hiding out in the sewers while planning their next move, and Ichigo suspects that Rurichiyo is somewhere on the Kasumiooji estate. | | |
| 9:03pm | Hierarchy of Alienness in Anime Fandom | | | | Browsing through the internet’s many blogs and forums, it’s common to find “fans” of anime trying to separate the best anime from the worst, trying to decide whether or not it’s okay to enjoy moe anime; one side says it’s good fun, the other declares it’s sexist... | | |
| 7:42pm | Xam’d Lost Memories 3 - Information In Exchange For Action | | | | I’m anticipating the fights too much after the awesomeness of last episode’s battle.Summary: At the shelter within the school grounds, it’s revealed that the white-haired girl is still alive.

| 6:52pm | Bleach - Chapter 319 | | | | Ants & Dragons The four guardians have no problem with this minor hollows. The leading Espada sends his four Fraccions to battle them.

| 12:32am | How to Fix the Industry: Move On | | | | It’s time to move on. We all know anime doesn’t make itself. For some reason the fact that Japanese (and Chinese and Korean and Vietnamese and Thai) animators make a shiny pocket lint for their hard work always bothered me. Maybe it would’ve bothered me less if fewer anime fans in... | | |
| 8:01pm | S.S. Astro Volume 01 - Thoughts & Impressions | | | | Many thanks you Yen Press for providing a review copy About the Mangaka Sadly this is another mangaka I couldn’t find anything on.
