| 5:31am | [Ascaloth] Final Critique: CLANNAD (TV) and CLANNAD ~After Story~ | | | | October 4, 2007. That was the day Kyoto Animation aired the first episode of a much-anticipated anime adaptation of one of Key Visual Arts’ most beloved story, the third visual novel released by them, CLANNAD. It was the first anime series I began covering on a weekly basis for RIUVA, and it was... | | |
| 9:14pm | Druaga ends |  | | | Kuro said it for me too: Well, all in all, a surprisingly engaging Gonzo series, just sadly ruined by another nonsense ending by Gonzo. I finally undestood the hate of GONZO swirling around the Internet. The problem is how they paint by numbers instead of actually painting, so to speak. Utu’s... | | |
| 1:12pm | Druaga no Tou ~The Sword of Uruk~ Review - 80/100 | | | | The Sword of Uruk is the continuation to the surprisingly good Aegis of Uruk, which aired last year. It left us with quite a cliff-hanger, and it’s in any case worth the watch to see how everything plays out in the end. There are quite a few surprises along the way, but somehow the Sword just... | | |
| 8:47pm | Tower of Druaga: Sword of Uruk 11 |  | | | Summary: IRL, Kelb gets beat up by Gilgamesh, while in the Tower Neeba gets beat up by Cilgamesh. Neeba does alright with the help of Succubus and Kai, but once Might the Fool is ordered to distract Neeba, Cilgamesh is able to take everyone out. Jil’s party arrives on the scene right as Cilgamesh... | | |
| 12:19am | Spring 2009 Series Preview - No Funny Business | | | | Memories of Green ~ The Spring 2009 Season Is Here At Anime History This Saint Patrick’s Day Weekend. Every 3 months I do one of these.every three months, and now I’m doing the grunt work too. Last time I tried to do my review in jest along with some researched observations and got flamed... | | |
| 3:18pm | Druaga no To - The Sword of Uruk - 11 |  | | | Neeba fights against Gil while Jil and the others rush to do the same. Impressions: It was kind of obvious that things were going to turn out this way. Although Neeba was setting out to defeat Gil, his motives were obviously messed up and skewed. He’s pretty much pure evil now. When Henaro picked... | | |
| 1:29pm | Kurogane no Linebarrel Ends |  | | | Okay series, just standard Gonzo lame ending. At least it’s not as bad as Sword of Druaga (as I am expecting from episode 11). Kouichi gets to become his “seigi no mikata” and scores with Kizaki at the end (at least that’s what’s implied) and everyone lives happily ever... | | |
| 2:00am | The Uber Late Kure-nai Anime vs. Novel ‘Deep Frying’ Part 1 | | | | The Unnecessary Prelude A post months in the making, that’s what this is. This, my friends, is the very example of totally uber-slow blogging. Please don’t try this at home, or wherever. Still, I’m more than glad to *finally* have this out of the backlogged post queue! Oh and those who are... | | |
| 7:00pm | Druaga no To - The Sword of Uruk - 10 | | | | Jil and the others infiltrate the final floor and castle of the tower in order to confront Gilgamesh. Impressions: This episode was alright, but overall it didn’t impress me a huge amount. It seemed to be pretty much all about them going from outside, to inside…. Yet still not getting to confront... | | |
| 6:00pm | Druaga no To - The Sword of Uruk - 09 | | | | Jil learns of what happened to the others in his stead and decide to chase after Kaaya, who has been abducted. Impressions: This series is really progressing nicely I was originally concerned with how fast it was moving, wondering if they would have enough time to conclude thing, but right now they... | | |
| 6:00am | Tower of Druaga: Sword of Uruk 10 | | | | Summary: Cilgamesh states that he will be God, once he is free of wussy emotions. Outside, Jil aggroes all of Cilgamesh’s CG guards (Demoniacs?!) as Melt goes for Coopa, Uragon sides with Henaro, and Gremica flakes out as well. Henaro demonstrates her lack of tactical skills as she leaves Tear... | | |
| 5:04am | Tower Of Druaga & Making Your Animated Gifs Smaller | | | | Beware, large files ahead. So I was reading Zyl’s posts about his first and second attempt at making animated gifs, and I noticed the huge file sizes. Even though he had re-sized the image to 248 x 140, the first gif was almost 1.9 MB and the second was a whopping 3.5 MB. Even my own attempts,... | | |
