| 12:00am | Hitohira 05 | | | | The best episode yet. I only get this full, emotional feeling in my chest from the best shows: Simoun, NANA, Bokura ga Ita. If this keeps on, Hitohira may be on its way to joining them at the top of the list.Great direction, pacing, and use of music, sounds and silence. And fine voice acting, not | | |
| 12:00am | Ikki Tousen 1/7 Ryomou Shimei PVC | | | | If you've never seen Ikki Tousen, trust me, you haven't missed anything (except lots of panties and cleavage ^^).

| 12:00am | Kanon 2006 3 - Strange illness | | | | The harem tendencies most fully embraced in the early parts of Kanon are probably the parts that would turn people off the most. Yuuichi flits from girl to girl like any other harem anime.It gets to the point where we get an establishing shot every 5 minutes or so which we can directly correlate to | | |
| 12:00am | Kasimasi ~Girl Meets Girl~ - 02 | | | | It should be obvious that popular media tends to exalt the dominant social group. Consider, for example, how much of, say Hollywood filmmaking, or American science fiction, is about how cool white males are. (Sometimes white males are dopey but lovable instead. Those movies are dismissed as "chick... | | |
| 12:00am | Massive MP3 Download Update | | | | These are all the single song MP3’ss I’ve uploaded to the blog over the past couple days. I’m gonna do the same thing with the manga and anime. I found a better download host for the files. Megaupload is still cool but divShare doesn’t delete files and you get a cool box and all... | | |
| 12:00am | Murder Princess Manga and Anime | | | | After the end of a long day trekking around Tokyo, and a visit to the Meiji shrine on what was perhaps the busiest day of the year, I, my wife and our intrepid friend Bruce decided to brave the crowds in Harajuku, for a spot of used manga shopping at Book-Off. It nearly killed us, but the wife did | | |
| 12:00am | Shuffle! 9 - Flat chested alliance fight! | | | | Staple of Harem Shows #324 - Beach Episode!!The obligatory beach episode gets off to an awkward amusing start when topless God- and Demon-chan chase each other across the beach in an entirely heterosexual manner while the rest of the eye-candy - uh, harem watches on.We get about a million body pans | | |
| 12:00am | Spring 2007 Anime - 10 favorites, 26 reviews | | | | I've seen 2-4 episodes of almost everything and now know which of the new animes I like best: Touka Gettan (pic), Hitohira, Lucky Star, sola, Seirei no Moribito and Emily of New Moon, with Darker than Black and Hayate the Combat Butler close behind.

| 12:00am | Suzumiya Haruhi Live Event a Big Hit | | | | Some people described it as the best anime live event they had ever attended. It was the long-awaited Suzumiya Haruhi no Gekisou 涼宮ハルヒの激奏 show last Sunday, featuring the entire main cast of Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu, and especially the | | |
| 12:00am | Touka Gettan -- episode 6 of 26 | | | | For the English wiki, I've been translating and expanding the Japanese wiki's pages for each episode. I thought I'd spend a few more minutes and put episode 6 into a blog post. There's another summary in the Subculture Anime Blog.Ep6 is less mysterious and more comical than previous episodes. | | |
| 12:00am | Winter 2007 Anime Season: Red Garden | | | | Like Code Geass, Red Garden is a series that is more properly attributed to the Autumn 2006 anime season, but I've been too lazy busy to review it until now.The plot is still a bit obscure, and I am not sure how much will be or can be explained. But in short, four high school girls learn that they | | |

| 12:00am | Yuri Manga: Hayate x Blade, Volume 6 | | | | What do you get when you cross independent, strong female characters who tend towards violence and are more than a little cracked, a school festival, maid costumes, a kidnapped kindergartner, 80 eyeglass-wearing fangirls and a whole lot of sword fighting? Why, you get Hayate x Blade, Volume 6.We | | |
