| 9:28am | Series Review: Bokura ga Ita | | | | Bokura ga Ita wasn’t one of the series I was actively following as it was being aired, but an abundance of time over the winter break led me to catch up and the final episodes were subbed yesterday. Bokura ga Ita is a romance/drama anime that, unlike the majority, features an early confession | | |
| 9:00am | Bokura ga Ita - 25 |  | | | Nana regrets telling Yano that she is ok with him leaving and tries to figure out what to do and what would be best for Yano.Impressions:Again, I found this episode to be rather boring actually.

| 12:59am | Bokura ga Ita End and Reflections | | | | In a hurry so this is gonna be short. Forgive me.The last two episodes of the show ere quite nicely done.

| 1:40am | Bokura ga Ita 24 | | | | Fortunately, the episodes are coming out reallllly slowly, since this episode sure as hell is becoming a lot more boring, especially for the first part. The latter half was pretty nicely done, because all the bullshit has finally been RESOLVED, for now.It appears that Yano’s mom is on the | | |

| 10:15am | Music Picks for Dec. 30th |  | | | After some thinking I’ve decided I’m gonna stop doing music reviews every week. My reasoning for this is that I know next to nothing about reviewing music, and don’t want you readers to have to stumble through my attempts at it. Instead, I’m gonna pick out what I’m | | |

Even though that time seemed to be so faraway now, we used to exist in that time. Then, we were there. We spent our time together. Do you still remember?”It ended, just as it was at the start. Did you enjoy the journey of Nana, Yano, Takeuchi and Yuri?I | | |

| 12:17pm | Bokura ga Ita - 26 (Finale) |  | | | That ending was terrible! This makes this whole anime series even worse! Although I hear the manga story is more promising, leaving the show on this kind of note is ridiculous. Okay so Yano is offering Nanami a trip to the zoo PLUS a trip to the hot springs. He even promises he won’t do | | |
| 9:34am | Giving to Thyself | | | | Let’s be honest here, the holiday season has nothing to do with the various religious events or good will towards your fellow men normally associated with the times.
