| 10:14pm | Shion no Ou - 03 | | | | Hey, this episode was really good! I’m beginning to understand what Kiseki gurl meant with Shion’s strong character, as she’s really one of the most likable characters to appear this season, along with Kaiji. The episode started off a little buggy, though. So much publicity for just... | | |

| 6:15am | A question for Anime Bloggers - Do you optimize your site? |  | | | I was studying a course on convergence of new media, and hence was required to do a technology update paper on “search engine optimization“. For most anime bloggers, it is clear that we are always (a little or a lot) concerned about the amount of readers and traffic that comes to the blog.... | | |
| 9:56pm | Blue Drop & Sketchbook ~full color’S~ | | | | Blue Drop Blue Drop is the story of two girls and, uh, one large alien space-battleship. Mari is an orphan, the only survivor of some mysterious disaster that wiped out a whole island. After being raised by her grandmother she is transferred to a girl’s dormitory. Here she meets Hagino, a calm... | | |
| 2:21pm | Blue Drop Episode 3 - Datura | ![zeNIME [z for aNIME~] zeNIME [z for aNIME~]](/images/icons/blogs/zenime_z_for_anime.png) | | | Blue Drop continues it’s steady (slow, to some people) pace with this episode. The blushiness continues, too, and new developments would include the yuri stuff that evil fanboys are looking for. Thank Haruhi-sama it’s pretty wholesome and sweet stuff though. Imagine if the creators of Dragonaut... | | |
| 8:15am | Pride Comes Before A… Fall 2007 Previews: What is Love |  | | | There’s been more of that “balanced” talk around this season more than any other this year given how the harem/bishoujo shows have a strong showing, and for that reason alone I decided to dedicate a post to four shows in said genre, namely Myself;Yourself, Blue Drop, Kimikiss Pure... | | |
| 11:34pm | Blue Drop - 04 |  | | | Summary:After waking up in the morning to find Hagino still gone, Mari has breakfast and does her laundry with no idea what Hagino is really up to. | | |
| 5:02am | Blue Drop 02 |  | | | Mari has a hot dream about Hagino tentacling her in the ocean, and wakes up in a much better mood. Mari is genki now, and starts calling Michiko “Micchi” as a pet name. We get a bit of Mari’s backstory, and learn that she is the lone survivor of the tsunami that devastated her island.... | | |
| 11:01pm | The Anime Review #4 | | | | Blue Drop Ep. 2 I'm relieved the school aspect is still the most prevailing in Blue Drop. Not to say I'm worried about the sci-fi trappings lurking, well, beneath the surface, but it's really the experiences Mari has at her new school that interest me the most. Hagino is also fascinating... | | |

| 6:56am | Fall Season III |  | | | Let’s see around 10 new shows added to my list I suppose that’s fair xD Hmm let’s start with the ones I’ve decided not to follow: Goshuushou-sama Ninomiya-kun: Too much fanservice. Plus it’s a bit embarrassing when your mom is sitting right beside you while you’re... | | |
| 12:33pm | Blue Drop 2, My new roommate? | | | | This episode picks up with Mari waking up the next morning after following Hagino to the docks and seeing her with the strange under water ship/sub/craft? Mari can’t seem to tell if it was real or a dream, and she starts having dreams/visions from her missing past. Mari attends class for the... | | |
| 9:25pm | Kaiji: first impressions | | | | Not much has wowed me this season. Granted, Gundam 00 started well, ef and Blue Drop intrigued me and even Clannad promises good things but there wasn’t the equivalent of, say, Gurren Lagann or Dennou Coil to make me feverishly check daily for torrents for the latest episode. It’s all going... | | |
| 7:23pm | Blue Drop Episode 02 - Lavendula | ![zeNIME [z for aNIME~] zeNIME [z for aNIME~]](/images/icons/blogs/zenime_z_for_anime.png) | | | The Ending Sequence becomes the Opening Sequence, more questions are left unanswered, and Mari takes a happy pill. Other than that, there were lots of blushy faces, and Hagino makes suggestive advances to Mari again. Still waiting for Hagino to propose to Mari, though. Other than that, it was a rather... | | |
