| 5:57pm | Full Summer Anime Preview -- staff, cast, trailers, pics, stories | | | | For me, the best way to guess how good a coming anime will be, is by looking at its staff: the director and writers and animation director and sound director, and so on. People who have made good shows before tend to make good shows again.I sometimes start watching a show for its voice actors, but I... | | |
| 1:32pm | Kabitzin’s June List |  | | | There has been less anime for me this month since Code Geass and Macross Frontier both took a week off, and the subbing of Kamen no Maid Guy and Nijuu Mensou no Musume seems to have slowed to a crawl (with a little activity this week). I was out of town for several stretches as well, but I did take... | | |
| 2:38am | Sketchbook ~full Color’s~ 01: Deeper Than Ergo Proxy | | | | Title: Just for laughs. On a musical note: fast forward to 19:58. Do those first three notes sound familiar? It’s the beginning of Elfen Lied’s OP, Lilium. I’m late on this anime, and thanks to TheBigN for telling me to watch this. Anyway, BigN was mentioning the difference between... | | |
| 9:57pm | Shounen Rival: Manga Spotlight |  | | | None of them is as shitty as Naruto, thank God. Urgh, it’s been so long since I’ve decently blogged something (thanks to a nasty case of Writer’s Block), but that doesn’t mean I haven’t been paying attention to my beloved mangas. Recently, my focus was on top of Shounen... | | |

| 6:15pm | Kaioshin’s Top 10 Super Mario Galaxy Songs | | | | There was one game that was released last year that I think without a doubt deserved the title of Game OST of The Year for 2007 (Even if Skyfall claims it’s generic action game music) and that was Super Mario Galaxy. That’s why in keeping with my recent Top 10 lists I wanted to talk about... | | |
| 3:34pm | The Best Japanese Albums of 2008 (Part 1) | | | | We are only half-way through the year 2008, six months since our look back at The Best Japanese Albums of 2007, and already the world has seen the release of some of the best music ever. OK, I suppose that may be a bit hyperbolic, but my point is this: The world cannot wait until the end of the year... | | |

| 5:23am | Kaiba #6 | | | | I don't think I'd be able to come up with something to say about each and every episode of a TV series if it didn't feature the unflagging richness and relentless stylistic unpredictability of Masaaki Yuasa's TV shows. Each episode is filled with an abundance of things that make it stand out as a unique... | | |

| 11:59pm | Maid Machinegun - A Lesson in Akihabara Culture |  | | | Okay, so my last two reviews of light novels have turned out to be a couple of big disappointments for this anime blogger. Because of that, I had decided to leave the novel reviews for the New York Times and stick with just comics and cartoons. But I became interested in Del Rey’s Maid Machinegun... | | |
