| 11:08pm | ef - a tale of melodies - Episode 10 | | | | Just as I manage to reach a point where I'd finally dropped my labelling of ef - a tale of melodies artistic merits as pretentious, so it goes and gets me wondering whether it is a little pretentious after all by airing an episode that is almost entirely shot in black and white.
