| 1:21am | Going Through My Blogroll, Part 1: | | | | So, not only do I not blog anime much myself, I also don’t read other blogs (at least not for a looooong time ^^;) [oh, and except for Hinano's game blog) So now I'll try to manufacture some material to write about by going through my blogroll. In don't know what the state of these blogs is... | | |
| 4:28pm | July 8th Vertical Vednesday: Sports Manga | | | | Vertical Vednesday, courtesy of Vertical Inc and Ed Chavez, is back for another informative around. This time, the topic is a genre of manga that doesn’t achieve much success in America for a a number of reasons, Sports Manga.

| 4:50pm | Eyeshield 21 Ends, I Am Sad | | | | There are only 3 Shonen JUMP manga series which I follow religiously. Bakuman, One Piece and Eyeshield 21. Now, I only have 2 remaining. Gone with the wind, like Sena’s run I wasn’t exactly expecting Eyeshield 21 to end so quickly after the match against the American team. I was looking... | | |
| 5:49am | I Blame The First Fullmetal Alchemist Anime Adaptation! | | | | My first contact with FMA was via the first anime adaptation which was airing on local TV 4 to 5 years back. Yes, at that time, I still watched TV. The first thing that caught my attention was the opening sequence which featured “UNDO” by Cool Joke. At that time, I was new to the world of... | | |
| 4:35pm | One Outs Strikes Out | | | | And with that, my weekly must-watch list is reduced to one. Major.This scene reminds me of a certain someoneOne Outs has been a really enjoyable 25 weeks. I’m haven’t watched too many sports anime, and with the exception of Eyeshield 21, of all that I’ve watched has been Baseball,With... | | |
| 4:28am | 2009 Spring Anime Menu: Boys Keep Out Edition | | | | Springtime is finally here (yes we’re late, don’t have to tell us), bringing with it a HEAPLOAD of animes!! ‘For You in Full Blossom’ is but apt to describe this season, with plenty of variety to cater to just about any audience. And since our beloved male chefs didn’t... | | |
| 5:33am | Mahou Sensei Negima! |  | | | Author: Akamatsu Ken Genre: Action, comedy, romance Status: On-going (Volume 26+) I’ve picked up a few shounen manga over the years. From hit titles like Claymore, Hajime no Ippo, One Piece to a few others. Somewhat recently, after trudging through Naruto and Bleach every week I decided, “Ok.... | | |
| 9:24pm | What to Do Against the Superior Race? | | | | Anime and manga that focus on competition often have a far-away goal for their protagonists, and in many cases that final obstacle is something or someone foreign to Japan. In American football, it’s African-Americans. In Go it’s Koreans. And in multiple instances of boxing, it’s ... | | |
| 12:09am | Kouji Seo | | | | This manga artist wrote many mangas that I really liked. Some of the ones I read were Suzuka and A Town Where You Live (Kimi no Iru Machi). I haven’t get read Cross Over yet but, Suzuka and Kimi no Iru Machi had been very good already. To me, the characters were very well drawn unlike a few I... | | |
| 6:44pm | AFA08 Day 1: So I Got A Media Pass? | | | | Day 1 of AFA08 had crazy queues, mainly the entrance ticketing booth. And so, I patiently queued up with my sister to get our normal tickets. Speaking of tickets, I was only told by those who had media passes that my name was on the media pass list after I paid for my ticket and entered. I didn’t... | | |
| 2:41am | Good Slow Power Creep | | | | Hajime no Ippo is getting a new anime this winter. Eyeshield 21 just finished what one might call its “Part 1.” Both have gone on for many chapters, and both are excellent examples of how to properly show the progress in skill of their characters. There are many reasons why I call this... | | |
| 7:05pm | If Hiruma Plays Baseball | | | | If so, Eyeshield 21 fans will start swarming towards One Outs. After all, it’s a proven fact that Hiruma’s king in the character popularity ranking list. Who cares about Sena anyway?After 4 episodes, I’m pretty much convinced that Toua is Hiruma’s older brother. They must have... | | |
| 6:22pm | Kurozuka Characters/Seiyuus -- pics and info | | | | In addition to its mind-bending plot, action, and imagery, Kurozuka has a cast full of top seiyuus. Here is a character/seiyuu page showing little pics of each character, with a pic of their seiyuu and info about his or her past roles.Paku Romi -- Loran Cehack (Turn A Gundam), Edward Elric (FMA), Osaki... | | |
| 10:21am | In Anime Football, You need Dragons to Score Goals. | | | | Unlike anyone in the blogosphere, I watch and enjoy the new football anime, Inazuma Eleven. It’s for kids of course, and the football makes the horrid Captain Tsubasa as realistic as a real match on TV. But there’s a certain charm that comes with such intentionally-overpowered sports anime,... | | |
| 3:13am | Shall I Compare Thee To a Summer’s Anime | | | | Thou art more workbut shorter than spring! Yes, folks, it’s time for the summer preview– a little bit early, but that’s because this time around I included shows airing this June (one of which starts tomorow), and would have included August had there been any! Yaaaaay. This summer... | | |
