| 3:44am | ACEN08: FUNimation | | | | Aaaaand FUNimation’s panel ACEN08: FUNimation Aaaaand FUNimation, which I know has at least one announcement today (and, no doubt, a sum-up of all their announcements in the past week). Events manager Adam Sheehan presides once again, and it sounds like it’s mostly going to be the same... | | |
| 9:51pm | TJ on Speed Racer |  | | | TJ says that Speed Racer rules and it’s just the bitter moviegoers who cling to their guns and their religion well, something like that anyway (RIUVA is a team blog as well, but yes, TJ penned the post). I think he may have a point, but in any case everyone is welcome to read for themselves. One... | | |
| 6:52pm | Mainstream Society Doesn’t Deserve Live-Action Anime. | | | | I was going to say, "Americans" in place of "Mainstream Society" but decided against it even though the poor box office performance of Speed Racer was measured in the US. But I do know that it isn’t just Americans, as even here in Singapore, I hear lots of negative reviews... | | |
| 2:34am | Will Thirteen Be A Lucky Number for Funimation? | | | | This week Funimation has been announcing licenses and so far all of them have involved 13-episode sets. On Monday, it was Save Me, Lollipop (aka Mamotte! Lollipop) that will come out as a 13-episode set in December and Tuesday they announced plans to release the first 26 episodes of Kenichi: The... | | |
| 6:47pm | ♫ Music to my Ears ~ A few new singles! ♪ | | | | Seems like this month has been a good month for music releases. Most of this seasons goodies are finally coming out on CD and thanks to people like Nipponsei we’ve got them available to us on torrent ^_^ I figured it’d be worth mentioning since these are some fun songs to add to your iPod,... | | |
| 11:42am | Kurenai: here’s to the child and all she has to teach us | | | | It seems that the lolicon dabacle is mercifully dead and buried so we can now all concentrate on what Kurenai is and does rather than what the misguided individuals think it is. It’s certainly an unusual series, both in terms of aesthetics and storytelling - this is to me a shining example of... | | |
| 6:00pm | When the sky turned blue | | | | Gone a bit quiet around here, ain’t it? Last update was a couple of weeks ago, so I figured I’d pop-in a quick “Hello, not dead yet”. The truth is that, since finishing Ghost Hound, I’ve not been watching nearly enough (good) anime, so, aside from a few sarcastic paragraphs,... | | |
| 4:00am | Soul Eater ep. 1 |  | | | Series Information ANN Encyclopedia | AniDB | AnimeNfo OP: “resonance” by T.M.Revolution ED: “I Wanna Be” by STANCE PUNKS Production: BONES [ Episode 1: Resonance of the Soul ～ Soul = Eater, Becoming a Death Scythe？～ ] When it all boils down to it, only your SOUL matters.... | | |
| 6:52am | Kurenai | | | | I enjoy a narrative when it doesn’t feel compelled to proclaim itself. I feel sort of molly coddled at best and annoyed at worst when a story lays out the plot like some kind of Lego instructional manual. Just let me put the pieces together on my own, all right? I can make the pirate ship... | | |
| 2:04pm | Anime Review: Shigofumi |  | | | What is it about episodic anime that I like so much? Even discounting the comedies, few shows in my all time favourites can maintain a storyline for more than a few episodes at a time (in before ADHD accusations). Mushishi is one that springs to mind constantly, each episode a sublime story of human... | | |
| 9:27am | Crystal Blaze - 04 | | | | Heh, this episode finally featured an actually funny fanservice joke. When the horny doctor first appeared, I feared the worst, but his nurse’s BSDM have turned out to be quite hilarious. Especially the dog’s outfit was brilliant. Really, if series as Kanokon realized this, they would... | | |
| 4:13pm | The lure of light-haired lolis - A lascivious lolicious list | | | | I know it’s blasphemous to exclude Nadesico’s Ruri (who is believed to be the mother of all light haired lolis) from this list but my overflowing love for Anzu compels me. (Yes, I fully enjoyed DCIISS ep 02.) Light haired lolis (LHLs) have a special place in my heart. If an anime character... | | |
| 9:11pm | Springs impressions! You’re all probably sick of them by now… | | | | Alright, so, I think I’ve watched almost everything I wanted to watch this season. I have to say that I’m watching more shows this season than any other season since I’ve started blogging, which is not saying much, but just means I bit off way too much than I can chew. So, in a very... | | |
