| 2:00pm | Autumn season 07: preconceptions and the element of surprise | | | | With a forecast of chilly receptions, widespread mediocrity and a chance of a few scattered moments of greatness across all regions of the anime blogosphere the autumn season looked a little bleak, or so I thought. For sure, there’s been a lot of stuff that passed me by and provoked little more... | | |
| 11:09am | Winter Season Preview | | | | Whoa, this is one of the smallest seasons we’ve had in years! To give some numbers, this preview consists out of only thirteen series (I left out the continuations of the series that I haven’t seen like Ah My Goddess, Minami-Ke and Major, and yes, one day I WILL watch Aria). And yet, I’m... | | |
| 9:17am | ef - a tale of notes: major symbolism explained |  | | | This is another Anime Blogging Collective™ joint blogging effort brought to you by TheBigN, Roxas, CCYoshi, Moogy, Damien, and Martin. As ef is the Lucky Star of the season in that it’s a severely misunderstood anime that’s getting bad press due to badly written, snap judgement opinions... | | |
| 9:39am | Fuuko’s Arc (Penultimate) - Hitode yori dango | | | | Looking at the abortion that was my previous post on Gurren Lagann, I concur that the concept of raving about GL in blog posts was something I certainly underestimated while trying to write about 9 episodes watched in one sitting. If bloggers could be reduced to incoherent wrecks by watching an episode... | | |
| 3:51pm | What is a magnum opus? The beginning of Gurren-Lagann | | | | The comments on this post were cute. Specifically, though, I’d like to commend Higevs, Xerox, and lKnight for taking the bait. My mention of “magnum opus” was deliberately provocative, utterly random, though not without careful forethought and really a point I meant to expand on in... | | |

| 8:46pm | The Cat Returns Review - 86/100 | | | | To be honest, for the past few weeks, I’ve been watching the various Ghibli-movies and while I admit that I haven’t touched the rumoured best of the bunch yet, I’ve yet to understand why people consider them as legends. At the moment, I see them more as a bunch of movie-makers who... | | |
| 7:07am | Mirai Nikki Ch1-9: “Dear Diary: Today I died. Damn.” | | | | (Dio and I are trying a new posting style, similar to that of Orion and Guff.) One of these two characters is a good guy. Take a guess as to which.DTZ: Random blog surfing occasionally reveals unexpected delightful results. Take today, for instance. Today I visited Derailed By Darry to find a wonderful... | | |
| 3:59pm | ef - a tale of brilliant anime wasted on the masses | | | | ef - a tale of memories could very well be- no, it is the Lucky Star of Autumn. It’s easy to bash for reasons like “random visual crap”, “distracting”, “confusing”, and equally as easy to hate for the very same reasons, which are, by some coincidental measure,... | | |
| 10:14pm | The Watchings of Yesterday - 07/10/21 |  | | | Well yesterday, I did something incredibly stupid. I started another series, and after one episode, realized it could be quite tough to finish. Maybe I should have given Bokura no another episode, but I just didn’t feel up to it. I have got to stop starting new stuff like that. The giant robot... | | |
| 9:25pm | New season! (Genshiken 2! Ghost Hound!) | | | | So, as a new anime season rolls in, these are the shows that I have picked up (so far).Genshiken II: This was a given. I've been excited about this show ever since I learned that there was, in fact, going to be a second season. Somehow, I love this story so much that, although... | | |
| 5:37pm | Juxtaposing Bokurano and Claymore: The point of adaptations | | | | What I mean by “the point of adaptations” isn’t “the point where adaptations start sucking”, but more of like “what is the point of adaptations?” After all, regardless of how good or bad an adaptation will be, you’ll always have the grassroots insisting... | | |
| 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... | | |
