| 10:35pm | A moment of stillness: the appeal of iyashikei | | | | After being lured into anime fandom through hard-edged science fiction and edge-of-your-seat action-fests I’ve always wondered how exactly I started to gravitate towards the whimsical drama and slice-of-life drama; my DVD collection and watch lists have taken on a split personality of sorts with... | | |

| 8:40pm | Chii’s Sweet Home - cute kitty anime! |  | | | If you’re behind on this series like I’ve been, it’s terribly easy to catch up, since each episode is just under three minutes long.

My answer to everything at the moment is “I can’t be arsed.” Do that post on Kurenai I promised to write?... | | |

| 11:06pm | Chi's Sweet Home - Episodes 13-20 | | | | Really, there's nothing new to say about Chi's Sweet Home that I haven't mentioned already.

| 1:52pm | April Summary | | | | So, most series have had four episodes aired now. So far, the season is looking quite promising, with many good series that have debuted. I’ve been noticing an on-going trend though, about how much more 13 episode-series appear. It’s a shame, because a lot of these series could have easily been... | | |
