| 11:46am | Spring 2008 series - wants and bins | | | | Whats with the randomahhh it’s spring ^^ Or not so much “bin” seen for me as I am the type who is greedy and wants to watch as much as I can, sacrificing a lot of other things *rolleyes* *cough* well, I have been wanting to write this for some time now and finally have some free... | | |
| 3:49pm | Attaining Allusions of Grandeur |  | | | some might consider not getting this to be a good thing, but I beg to differ While I was cropping, rotating, and resizing headers for the new layout I thought to myself, “How can I make this interesting?” CCY had the idea of incorporating the relevant taglines into his rotating headers,... | | |
| 3:55pm | March Comes in Like a Rigardo | | | | The problem with anime references or puns is that they usually fall apart quite miserably when you attempt to throw two or more of them together. It’s the sheer futility of making a Yoko Kanno reference in a Nanoha post title (a Venn diagram would easily illustrate the naivete behind this), or... | | |
| 10:58pm | Quick Final Thoughts - Darker Than Black and Moyashimon | | | | I’m trying to get my affairs in order so I can crack on with the April season in earnest as it’s looking rather tasty from my corner of the world (more on that another time). So, having finally started to catch up properly on all the shows I started last year and never finished, here’s... | | |
| 10:54pm | Mnemosyne 1: a sexy and sassy revival of the OAV (with added zombies) | | | | A while back on the other blog I write for I lamented over the decline of the old fan favourite, the OAV. Y’know, those short straight-to-video series that the likes of AIC and Gainax made their names on back in the old days, but don’t seem to come around very often any more. They’re... | | |
| 7:50pm | Kabitzin’s February List |  | | | I’ve caught up on True Tears, and the epic dorama of True Tears delights me as much as KimiNozo did. I also made a point to check out this crazy combat butler manga, and to me Hayate no Gotoku! feels kinda like a cross between Mahou Sensei Negima and He Is My Master. The manga art is middling,... | | |

| 10:58pm | Mnemosyne ep1 ~ Under the radar | | | | Well, almost. For the last series to air for this already buzzing season, I received a pleasant surprise when I saw this one. Set in a classic Darker than black theme murder mystery style, Mnemosyne is definitely and impressive series, aimed to either shock you to death with weapons of mass torture... | | |
| 2:45am | Saigar Update: Group D Round 2 |  | | | Manly spiral chest hair is manly. Looks like it’s Gurren-Lagann day for Saigar. Lord Genome (411) crushes Anisawa Meito of Lucky Star (163) and Hei of Darker than Black (189). Lord Genome isn’t a bad win by any imagination, but I still would of like to have seen Anisawa Meito advance. Hot... | | |

There’s no way Kamina can’t win tomorrow unless we get a huge Internet conspiracy going on. Well, it won’t... | | |
| 3:41am | Saigar Update: Group C Round 2 | | | | Maebara Keiichi of Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai (298) beats Huang of Darker than Black (107) and Masa of Seto no Hanayome (177). Really? After all this time and two saigars I still have no idea what makes people think Keiichi is GAR at all. Maybe it’s cause I found Higurashi boring and the constant... | | |

| 4:13am | Saigar Update: Group B Round 2 | | | | Ok, so I know Bruce didn’t actually win, but this is just too good a picture not to use. Look at that arm throw that rock into the face of despotism!Actually a good superbowl this year. Haven’t had one of those in a while. Too bad most of the commercials sucked. Too much Fox whoring every... | | |

Rather, if you look at the voting graph, he was never in first place at all. In fact, what’s more interesting... | | |
| 6:37pm | Shakugan no Shana movie: red eyes and tears | | | | Excuse my ignorance concerning the second and first seasons - that’s pretty much the point of this review. The Shakugan no Shana movie is, I’m guessing, a worthy companion piece for the series but I’ll leave that judgment for when I’ve got that far (and judging by the state of... | | |
