| 12:20pm | September Summary | | | | + September 2007 Rankings + And finally the Spring- and Summer-seasons have ended. Last month, I received the comment that my ratings have been a tad too high, though I must say that they’ve possibly become even higher. But then again, September has been the best month in terms of anime for... | | |
| 2:16pm | Kaze no Shoujo Emily Review - 94/100 | | | | Kaze no Shoujo Emily, or Emily of the New Moon as its English title, is the third of what I’d like to call the “big three” of the spring-season 2007, along with Toward the Terra and Bokura no. These three form the cream of the crop of the series that have been released for the past half year,... | | |
| 10:30am | Seirei no Moribito - 26 | | | | In the middle of this season, I didn’t think that the current Spring Season of 2007 could live up to the awesomeness of the previous Spring Season of 2006, but now that nearly all of the major series have finished apart from Kaze no Shoujo Emily and Dennou Coil, my mind has changed. The major... | | |
| 10:46am | Nanoha StrikerS Ends! It Could’ve and Should’ve Been Better, But Passes. | | | | The Nanoha franchise, if you ignore the elements of loliconism, is a fantastic foundation upon which new series can be created. The universe and premise is very suitable for successful high-octane action series as it contains the desirable elements of magics (super powers), girls (good looking girls)... | | |
| 9:08am | Claymore - 26 | | | | And so it has finally ended. Spoilers will obviously follow, but with this series it’s not like you can’t guess what happened. Personally, I’m not too happy with the ending. Not only did it leave even more threads open than I expected by not killing Priscilla, it also couldn’t... | | |
| 9:12pm | Bokura no Review - 95/100 | | | | Bokura no, is the second series to finish of what I’d like to call the “big three” of the spring-season, along with Toward the Terra and Kaze no Shoujo Emily. For me, these three series stood out like no other for the past two seasons, and they just kept delivering quality over and... | | |
| 8:27pm | Bokura no - 24 | | | | What a magnificent and absolutely incredible ending!! Okay, others may disagree, but there’s a very good chance that Bokura no has the best ending of the year for me. Obviously spoilers are going to follow this post, so this bit of text is there to fill up space for the blog-aggregators, in... | | |
| 9:47am | Tokyo Majin Rocks. Claymore Sucks. | | | | This is the period of time when many anime series end. The numerous quality 26 parters from the spring season, the not-so-quality 13 parters of the summer season etc. Having seen so many ends and with more to come, it’s quite an emotional period for me because I almost always cry at well-done... | | |
| 3:59pm | Voices of a Lucky Star: When it’s all over we still have to clear up |  | | | As I write this I’ve just finished viewing the last few episodes of Lucky Star. a.f.k. has been good and all, but unreliable and temperamental (you know it’s getting dumb when they delay subs due to “it being licensed” twice) when it came to the last stretch. Props to Guerrand... | | |
| 3:18pm | Toward the Terra Review - 94/100 | | | | Those who’ve been frequenting my blog for the past few months probably have seen me ramble about the “big three” of the spring-season: Bokura no, Kaze no Shoujo Emily and Toward the Terra. While a lot more excellent series have been released in the past Spring and Summer-season, these... | | |
| 10:32pm | Bokurano 17 and 18 | | | | “in the back seat there was a gun/Words were passed in a shotgun blast/Troubled times had come” Wow, talk about plot progression! There appears no downtime from my change of domain name host either (I figured that since my web host now does domain names too, I might as well transfer the... | | |
| 9:16pm | Bokura no - 23 | | | | I’m not sure why, but my mood seems to be extremely random and unpredictable when it comes to final episodes. Bokura no, though, still had me as pumped as ever with its semi-final episode, and I’m really looking forward to see the end of this. I actually remember making a few predictions... | | |
| 9:24pm | Blue Submarine No.6 Review - 84/100 | | | | Blue Submarine No.6 is Gonzo’s first ever anime-production, according to AniDB at least. It was made in the time when they weren’t notorious at all, and I must say, I’m impressed. I expected a standard action-flick without substance, but the story and setting actually turned out... | | |
| 7:17pm | Bokurano 15 and 16 | | | | I now know what Peter S meant when he said in his comment that episode #15 had a plot twist! It all comes out after a gangster named Tamotsu is released from jail and returns to his former employer. The old boss suggests he ‘goes straight’ and sets off to look after an old friend and her... | | |
