| 5:08am | Ab.net has been down. Impz is doing smartie work. Anime updates. My lord @_@ |  | | | That happens if you don’t give Yotsuba her anime blog! One day, the green lolis will turn deadly and bite Dreamhost! Well, that is perhaps a fragment of your (and hopefully my) imagination but the host has been particularly unstable. That is the key reason why THAT Anime Blog has been down. Hence,... | | |
| 10:01am | Ooedo Rocket - 24 | | | | Interesting, it’s quite possible that out of all the shows that will be ending in a few weeks, Ooedo Rocket will have the most unpredictable ending when it comes with a few nice twists this episode. While the final two episodes for both Bokura no, El Cazador and Toward the Terra are promising... | | |
| 10:12pm | Bokurano 13 and 14 | | | | “You hide your eyes but the ugly truth just loves to get in the way” Ah, back to normal. My fave subbing group for this show seems to be really on a roll with releasing new episodes so expect more angst-ridden Bokurano goodness before the week is out. Anyway, these episodes reveal quite... | | |
| 9:10pm | Bokura no - 22 | | | | This episode was truly magnificent. Even though there are only three episodes left, Bokura no spends an entire episode on Jun’s past, but boy, does it turn awesome. I love how well his character has been developed up till now, this makes his background even sadder. The creators did a wonderful... | | |
| 3:01pm | Darker than Black (22), Bokurano (13), Ergo Proxy (finished-finally) | | | | My summer anime hiatus was punctuated by episodes of Darker than Black and the occasional Lucky Star, but now that I'm back to my normal school routine I am more or less back in my old anime routineI'm still loving Darker than Black. Bokurano and this show were the only two series... | | |
| 1:45pm | Kaze no Shoujo Emily - 23 | | | | Yay! Yay! Yay! The Teddy-episode! Interestingly enough, this episode turned into a tragic love-story when it doesn’t focus about his problem with his parents, unlike the others, but about his relationship with Emily. In the last episode, we already saw hints that they liked each other, and they... | | |
| 8:53am | Anime Company Champion of 06-07 |  | | | This is one thing I’ve wanted to do for a long time (I’m big on lists, didn’t I say that?) So I’m going to do it in my free time tonight and then head off to bed. I’ll /try/ to write up a entry for Zombie Loan entry tommorow. I’m really busy with school so only expect... | | |
| 9:56am | Claymore - 23 | | | | Most of the times, I’m not that inclined to agree with manga-readers when company X changes the storyline of anime Y a bit. NHK ni Youkoso and Death Note, for example turned out perfectly fine, with a few flaws here and there, perhaps. xxxHolic and Bokura no also proved to be perfect adaptations,... | | |
| 9:55pm | Bokura no - 21 | | | | First, the good stuff: The episode immediately begins with Kanji’s fight. There’s only one thing he did between his selection and his time to pilot: ask Tamotsu to kill his mother. Kanji’s case is similar to Kirie’s in a way: they both didn’t have any friends outside... | | |
| 9:43am | Byousoku 5cm: I miss you, I miss you so far |  | | | I have about nine entries in my feedreader’s Byousoku news bin that I’ve skimmed through briefly for fear of them influencing my review (yeah, you people sure can write). They’re all related to 5cm, but I’ve noticed two things they’ve neglected to point out, and this will... | | |
| 8:29am | August Summary | | | | + August 2007 Rankings + Okay, last time the ratings were a bit confusing so let me explain them for a bit. They’re out of 10, just like the school-system. 6,0 is average, and you really shouldn’t look for likable series below it. Anything above 9,0 is awesome, hence definitely recommended.... | | |
| 3:12pm | Bokura no - 20 | | | | Whoa, plot twists! Before I start with them, I must say that I finally realized how incredibly versatile the second half of this anime had been. It started out as a case-based series, then, with Kirie and Maki it turned into science-fiction, then with Takami and Aiko, the political undertones of this... | | |
| 3:35pm | Honey and Clover Live Action Movie - Et tu, Brute? | | | | In my idealist world of adaptations, movies like the abomination that was the Death Note live action would never exist. It was good as a movie for movie’s sake, but not good enough for my higher standards. Neither was it a case of source material fan bias — for what it’s worth, the... | | |
| 7:36pm | Dennou Coil - A Circle of Children - 13,5 | | | | Recap. It’s nothing special, though. Unlike Bokura no, this really isn’t a series where a recap works. Basically, it was aimed at young children, to explain the plot and characters a bit to them. Throughout, we see a few shots of the voice-actors for Isako and Fumie, explaining this, sometimes... | | |
| 5:35pm | Bokurano 18 - “Reality is often painful” | | | | Hah, I have been a little slow with writing out entries, especially when the workload is starting to increase bit by bit. Nevertheless, it’s a good thing that I am still not drained enough to stop blogging. The summary will be shortened since I am somewhat lacking in time, but it will cover most... | | |
