| 12:12am | Obligatory Loot Post | | | | So yeah, I said I was at the London Anime Expo this Saturday where I met Ruki, nice bloke. One of the single most fun things to do at the Expo was to check out the many cosplays and try to name the most, compared to whoever you were going with. I saw some cool cosplay, like the Power Rangers, Optimus... | | |
| 12:29pm | Tuesday Rumble: May 6th | | | | Busou Renkin the gameStill missing Busou Renkin? On the off-chance that you actually are, why not imagine a world where the series has its own RPG? In the style of Star Ocean, all battles are fought in real-time, with trigger buttons used to unleash special attacks from a player’s Busou Renkin. Whether... | | |
| 12:27am | Special A - 02 |  | | | This episode basically covered chapter 5 of the manga. In regards to the beginning part with the re-introduction of the characters - it’s something they did in the manga for the first couple of chapters. It’s kinda of annoying though in the anime since like “yes we know who they are... | | |
| 6:02pm | Soul Eater - 02 | | | | As for the series I won’t be blogging this season: - Kanokon: Obviously not. Please Xebec, I know that you’re good at adapting mangas and light-novels, you showed that with The Third, but stop picking out these crappy premises! - I apparently like Blassreiter a lot more than others do.... | | |
| 5:39am | Spring 2008 Anime Season: Preliminary Viewing Awards | | | | A good evening to you all! A new season of anime is upon us, and with it a new start of madness in this blog! While we still have lots of stuff from the fall to clean out, mostly due to us falling behind when I dropped my hard drive while it was running, but that doesn’t preclude us from ignoring... | | |
| 8:58pm | 49 New Anime: preview, staff, cast, story, pic | | | | As usual, what looked like a poor season is actually shaping up to have a number of interesting shows. Nothing so far looks like an instant classic, but there are always surprises. And with 49 shows (including OVAs), there could be plenty of surprises.Hirano Aya returns to anime in a big way, starring... | | |

| 10:04am | More Watsuki Praise and a Criticism of the Fanbases | | | | Japan? We need to talk. Have a seat. It has come to my attention that you have shown a lack of appreciation for some of the finer members of your community. Among these is one Nobuhiro Watsuki. I’ve looked into the case of Busou Renkin, and my associate Dio Bravo has written up an excellent analysis... | | |
| 1:38pm | Weekly Round-Up: March 14th | | | | For some reason, over the past week or so I have developed a renewed interest in Facebook, and so I must invite you all to come and social network with me, should you so desire. In the meantime, let’s get back to the important business of discussing anime.Reviewed this week: Aria the Origination 10,... | | |
| 11:50am | Weekly Round-Up: March 7th | | | | Sometimes I just can’t help being evil; telling children about the slaughterhouse whilst they’re playing Harvest Moon, persuading them that complete Iliana rings can just be mined straight out of the earth, arguing that Albel is HARD GAY for Fayt- is there nothing I won’t do? Then again, sometimes... | | |
| 3:03pm | Spring Season Preview | | | | Incidentally, this is my 1600th post, so I thought that it would a good time for the upcoming spring-season preview, and the line-up is looking quite interesting. There are a lot of science-fiction series, and no hentai-game adaptations at all. That’s probably the first since years now. Apart... | | |
| 8:23pm | Valentines Day: Why some anime leads are better off single | | | | Have you ever watched a harem anime and thought, “Gosh, I sure wish girls would flock to ME like that!” C’mon, admit it. The fact that most harem leads tend to be loser nerd otaku types further compounds the genre as catering to the fantasies of the viewer. Or at least, that WOULD... | | |
| 11:07pm | Mnemosyne -- Sex, Violence, and a Great Cast | | | | The science fiction thriller Mnemosyne begins airing this Sunday, 3 February. An interview with cast members is studded with words like "violent," "erotic," "mysterious," and "suspense." I may not be a big fan of violence, but when it is as stylish as it seems to be in the trailer, I'll be there for... | | |
| 11:20pm | Winter Shows Snowball - Part 4 | | | | The only thing airing today was Cool x Spicy Wolf. It was really weird to see a period anime set in that time frame, and the music they used didn’t help me think otherwise. Horo reminds me of the firefox mascot lol. Lawrence was compared a lot to Lulu from Code Geass by NicoNicoers, but since... | | |
