| 1:27am | December 2008 News Highlights | | | | On December 9, Bandai Namco Games released a variant of a karaoke machine using its Afrec! technology. Instead of having fans add their voices to music, Afrec! allows fans to voice over anime segments. The machine was released under the Joysound label. The process for the seiyuu wannabe has three... | | |
| 3:02am | Anime Inbou Awards 2008, pt. 4 ~ oshimai |  | | | I couldn’t think of a better way to end this then calling this last part the end, so you get your oshimai instead. This final entry has a whopping eight categories so this is where the best of the best lie. Our focus here is on the story and direction of the show and overall how it was handled... | | |
| 8:26pm | Aria the Animation: Episode 11 | | | | If Aria: The Animation were a novel, it would be difficult to fit in an interlude with the pasts of Alicia, Akira, and Athena. It would disrupt the flow of the story. The same goal as it pertains to the current Singles could be reached without flashing back in time. It’s funny how a series... | | |

| 3:34pm | January Summary | | | | It’s definitely been an interesting Winter-season so far. I know that I’ve ranted pretty often about the lack of new concepts this series, but when you look at the big picture, then this is promising to become an excellent season. There are many quality sequels airing right now, and especially... | | |
| 1:15am | Tower of Druaga: Sword of Uruk 04 |  | | | Summary: No one reset the instance, so it’s an easy trek to the Shrine of Sky and Druaga respawns without his barrier (must be Rez Sickness). Jil whips out his new whip sword and goes right for Druaga’s neck. Suddenly Jil enters a bright white vision with Kai’s adult form. Kai’s... | | |
| 9:12pm | Kabitzin’s January 2009 List | | | | I finally finished up Shikabane Hime: Aka, but I haven’t yet gotten to SH: Kuro like I wanted to. From a quick scan, however, it looks like the first few episodes are mostly training and flashback episodes. I’ve watched most of the shows I was interested in, except White Album. I might... | | |
| 4:12pm | Winter '09 First Impressions | | | | Not a bad season at all, a couple of interesting shows continued[1][2], SHAFT returned with a satire, MADHOUSE with action & plot and then we also got Regios. I must admit though that the show that I anticipated the most was a huge let down. Also there is plenty of fan-service around to fight against... | | |
| 10:28pm | Druaga no To - The Sword of Uruk - 03 |  | | | Jil and his group reach the cold level of the tower where they find Melt has opened a resort. Impressions: This episode was alright, but not quite what I expected. I didn’t quite expect Melt to be so much of a bad guy. I fully expected him to be selfish and greedy, like he was in the first season,... | | |
| 11:27pm | Tower of Druaga: Sword of Uruk 03 | | | | Summary: Jil’s party prepares for the frozen wasteland of the Shrine of Emery, but are surprised to find it has become a luxurious resort. CEO Melt has become enormously rich through a pyramid scheme that piggybacked off his fame; in return for capital, he adds investors to his band of 131... | | |

| 8:00pm | Druaga no To - The Sword of Uruk - 02 | | | | Jil gets ready to climb the tower again and tries to convince Fatina to do the same. Impressions: So far this season is progressing pretty well. They seem to be going straight for the top of the tower so hopefully it will only be one or two more episodes until they are in the “Mythical Tower” and... | | |
