| 8:47pm | Natsume Yuujinchou end: except it isn’t. Great | | | | The summer season turned out to be quite a good one, assuming you don’t mind watching two or three excellent series while ignoring countless others because you’re such an elitist you think that most of it was made of Fail. I know I’m being a bit harsh but I actually welcomed this because... | | |
| 5:00pm | Fall Anime Impressions – Clannad Season 2 | | | | Next up is one of the most anticipated shows of the fall season – Clannad season 2. The first season was partly my favorite KyoAni/Key show yet and partly my least favorite KyoAni/Key show. At the end of season 1, I was less then totally thrilled that Kyoto Animation was going to be doing the second... | | |
| 3:00am | Notes on Gundam 00 Second Season |  | | | 1. Needs a snappier title than Gundam 00 Second Season. G00SS is not a viable alternative. 2. I’m not completely sure if I’m watching a new gundam or just rewatching Zeta. A-Laws (it’s a pun, get it?) as fascist military? Check. Louis as an artificial newtype? Check. Can’t wait... | | |
| 1:27am | Birdy the Mighty Decode Review | | | | Birdy was one of the pleasant surprises of the summer season. I’d written off the show before it started for two reasons: the publicity pictures of the show were not enticing in the least and I read that there was a decade old OVA of Birdy that was not too memorable. Thankfully, I read a few good... | | |
| 2:34pm | Natsume Yuujin-Chou - 13 | | | | Short Synopsis: It’s time for the local shrine festival and Ponta gets kidnapped by a manipulative woman. Highlights: Someone hired different animators? Overall Enjoyment Value: 8,5/10 What an awesome way to conclude the first season of Natsume Yuujin-chou. The different stories weren’t... | | |
| 2:19am | Sekirei:Until next year shall we part T.T | | | | End of season oneduh is so obvious there’s gonna be a sequel..cute = sexy in Japan Hello peopleits been like ages since wrote a blog here on yukan(no its not really blissmo’s fault),I think I was more pre-occupied with my real life than the “I’ll kill you if you don’t comply... | | |
| 11:25pm | Code Geass Stops, Excited and Satisfied Kids Get Off the Rollercoaster | | | | I’m not a big theme park person but I’ve been to a few of them. At one point in my life I used to go every year. In a way, big-budget mainstream anime are a bit like amusement park rides. At least in the US, where land is plenty and people pay an arm and leg to go to them, theme parks attract... | | |
| 9:24pm | TheBigN’s Crappy One/Two-Liner 2008 Fall Preview |  | | | As I’ve stated before, I haven’t done these things before because for most of the shows, I don’t know jack about them, so I thought there was no point. Well, I still think there’s no point in the matter, but because I can’t really think of anything else to post about for... | | |
| 12:43pm | Birdy the Mighty Decode Review - 82,5/100 | | | | My three personal favourite series are the following: 1) Mahou Shoujotai, 2) Noein, 3) Visions of Escaflowne. Because Mahou Shoujotai wasn’t directed by just one guy, but a whole bunch of directors and the latter two were directed by the guy called Kazuki Akane, it’s pretty safe to say... | | |
| 12:14am | Fresh Autumn Flavors | | | | Is it already that time of year? It’s been warm lately - I’m sitting outside, enjoying it at this very moment - but the leaves are nonetheless changing color and the nights are growing cooler. The cold and snow is just around the corner. I don’t know how much value there is in doing... | | |
| 10:17pm | Honya’s Fall 2008 Watch List | | | | Epic Anime Season is Epic. Fall season will be starting in just a few days time and it is looking to be one of the best in recent memory. With shows like CLANNAD: After Story and Gundam 00 Second Season, this coming season looks like it will be Fall 2007 remix version 2.0. There are also plenty of... | | |
| 7:39pm | Takagaki Ayahi on Wrestling Radio Show? | | | | I'd read that Takagaki Ayahi (Noe in true tears) was supposed to be a fan of pro wrestling, but now she is going to co-host a wrestling-focused radio program.The show is called "Hustle Every Night" (夜ナ夜ナハッスル), and is produced by a wrestling group called "Hustle Fighting Opera." The purpose... | | |
| 10:09am | Natsume Yuujin-Chou - 12 | | | | Short Synopsis: Natsume gets a very nasty curse put on his arm. Highlights: ZOMG Second Season! Overall Enjoyment Value: 8,5/10 Ah, thank goodness this series is getting its second season. The show is nice and all, but there’s so much potential left that still needs to be touched. This concept... | | |
