| 9:59pm | The Meta Effect: How Anime Blogging Messes with Anime Watching | | | | (except less serious-sounding)Sometimes anime blogging can not only change your reader's perspectives but also your own.Not even only from the commenting, or the discussions. Writing about a hobby, somehow, can manage to change how you view it as a whole.It's kind of similar to the age-old discussion... | | |
| 8:32am | Genshiken II Ep. 3: Selling at the Convention | | | | Way to start blogging at episode 3. Yeah, I know. I’m finally back to following a series regularly though, considering it’s been a few weeks since Lucky Star and Claymore ended. I had been following Dennou Coil as well, but somehow it just didn’t keep my interest all the way through.... | | |
| 6:49pm | Through Three, Fall 2007 | | | | Oh no! It's the dreaded but ever-popular "here's what I think about all the new shows in a season that I've barely seen an hour of" post!Perhaps it's one that can be considered overdone in the anime blogging world, but it certainly serves a purpose. A blogger's watchlist can say a lot about their tastes... | | |
| 12:34am | Series Review: Doujin Work | | | | "Young ladyyou dropped your ero-hon."Chalk another one up for the 'eh' pile.Doujin Work, contrary to appearances, is not a yaoi show; but this sort of perversion makes up a decent amount of this comedy show about a girl trying to strike it big in the doujinshi (fanwork) industry. The connection should... | | |
| 12:44pm | Final Thoughts: Doujin Work | | | | When her friends introduce her to the world of creating and selling your own doujinshi, Osana Najimi is immediately entranced- think of all the money she could make! With this in mind, Najimi prepares to enter the world of ‘doujin work’, but can any amount of practise and research compensate for... | | |
| 3:00pm | Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei ep. 7 |  | | | [ Episode 7: One Morning, I Woke Up and Opened My Eyes I Was Carrying a Mikoshi ]The first half of this episode was focused on drawing doujinshi and reminded me a lot of Genshiken and Doujin Work for obvious reasons. I also managed to learn quite a few things during this episode. Such as | | |
| 9:55am | Weekly Round-Up: October 12th | | | | Damn you anime, I want to live! Due to an unmanageable amount of releases this week, some titles have been postponed until next round-up.Reviewed this week: Baccano! 8, Doujin Work 8-12, ef- a tale of memories 1, Gundam 00 1, Kaiji 1, Koutetsu Sangokushi 14-15, MariMite OVA 5, Mokke 1, Mononoke 10-11,... | | |
| 5:45am | Budget humour | | | | (Progress: 12/12)Looking at the line again, it's funny if taken out of context, but for the record, I wanted to state that Najimi was the unwitting benefactor of lulz, like, oh I don't know, William Hung.Doujin Work has appeal because it's outrageous. Perhaps it's not outrageous as it could have been,... | | |
| 3:11am | I Think I Really Might Know What It’s Like To Be Najimi |  | | | Finishing up the Doujin Work anime (nothing special, but a decent watch), I was wondering what could have been had the show incorporated more of Hiroyuki’s brand of humor into it. But it’s better to think of what is rather than “what if’s” I guess, even if they do bring... | | |
| 11:59pm | Genshiken II - 01 |  | | | Man I love Genshiken. I read the manga a year ago but I haven’t revisited it so this doesn’t seem TOO stale to me. Then again I only remember the stuff that involved Ogiue and Sasahara or Madarame and Saki (such a sad shipper I am.) I gotta admit though I think Genshiken portrays the whole... | | |
| 5:09pm | Slice of Life vs Sketch Comedy | | | | After re-reading TheBigN’s post about slice o’ life shows, I came to the conclusion that it’s rather undeserving to slot in productions like Lucky Star, Azumanga Daioh, or even Doujin Work as this genre. It may be seen as apt because these shows are often about “life”,... | | |
