| 11:12am | Mega Round-Up: January 11th | | | | Fellow anime fans, heed my words- never, ever let a massive backlog build up, for it will crush your very soul. Sadly, there is still much I have to catch up on, but in the meantime enjoy my coverage of what I have managed to get through since mid-December.Reviewed this week: Aria the Origination 1,... | | |

| 2:18am | Saigar Update: Group A Round 1 |  | | | The first of many predictions that shall be proven wrong. Dio Brando (252) steamrolls over Kenshiro (245) and Yoko (213). Actually, Kenshiro put up a pretty good fight there, but a lot of people just really love Dio. The Emperor of Britannia (514) absolutely crushed Aihara Kazuki (32) and Motsu (70).... | | |
| 6:01pm | Rosario to pantsu Vampire |  | | | I really don’t understand why this was one of the most anticipated shows of the season. The concept of monster schools has been done countless times, the earliest I remember was Shaggy and Scooby in the Monster School (yes, that’s an AMERICAN reference). But seriously, if you read the description... | | |
| 5:23pm | This anime fan forever looks back on 2007 | | | | Jesus, it’s the end of another year. I’ve had fun in 2007; being a part of the anime blogging community and writing for you, dear reader. I’m not sure I’d last long if it wasn’t for your comments, but here we are, almost two years on and still talking, ranting, in love with anime. Back during... | | |

Deep with in the heart of Akiba, also known as the Akiba@Very_Deep, a secret betting club has been predicting the champion of the AnimeBowl since the late 1980s.

| 1:00pm | Best of 2007 Anime Awards, Day 6 - Music & Voice Acting | | | | Up to this point the awards have mostly been silly and nonsensical. The final two days of our award show, however, will be a little different. We’re putting aside the random awards in favor of a few more traditional categories. Today we’ll be talking about the best the year had to offer... | | |
| 10:33pm | 2007: Year in Review |  | | | 2007 IMO was a interesting year for anime IMO, as I felt that it didn’t reach the hights of 06. Despite this, I thought that there was a return to anime that were based on manga, then anime being original. Best Male Lead: Lelouch Lamperouge (Code Geass) Runner Up: Li Sheng Shun aka Hei (Darker... | | |
| 10:30pm | Best of 2007 Anime Awards, Day 5 - Action | | | | There was a time when the genre “Action” didn’t have the connotation of mindless protagonists, clichéd “take over the world” plots, and gratuitous vehicle explosions in every other scene. Then a very silly man named Michael Bay came along, and well…the rest is history.... | | |
| 7:31pm | My Picks of Anime ‘07 | | | | Best ” OVA ” - ARIA the AriettaOk, actually ARIA the Arietta was probably the only OVA from this year I saw, but it doesn’t mean it wasn’t good. Like everything about ARIA, it was great; calming, funny, whimsical, and slightly melancholic. Fortunately the OVA did not signal the... | | |
| 9:55pm | My Top Ten Anime of 2007 (I Can't Help Myself) | | | | Especially because my list will be so different from most others, I just can't stop myself from posting it. Some of these shows have clear faults, but their strengths more than counterbalance their faults, in my opinion. Happy New Year!1 Byousoku 5cm2 ef3 Blue Drop4 Lucky Star5 Touka Gettan6 Emily of... | | |
| 9:00pm | 2007 Anime. A best of retrospect. | | | | Figured the header should be Lucky Star since you won’t be seeing it on the actual list =P With the end of 2007 just around the corner, one can’t help but look back on the year that has passed and wonder, was all that time that I spent watching this stuff actually worth it? Which led me,... | | |
