| 5:05am | Day 1: Puella Magi Madoka Magica the Movie: Rebellion | | | | Is that year again, where anibloggers come together and write twelve blog posts for the 12 days leading up to Christmas (well, I’m few days behind but whatever). Let’s start off with something I just watched today. This post will be filled with spoilers.By Aoki Ume First, I would like to... | | |
| 2:12pm | Winter 2014 Season Preview | | | | The Winter 2014 season promises some very good second cours of Fall 2013 shows - and thank goodness for that.Winter isn't normally one of the highlights of the anime year - it and summer are pretty much a crapshoot. You get fewer series to begin with, which cuts down the odds of getting... | | |
| 11:18pm | Winter 2014 Anime Season Preview | | | | Welcome to The Cart Driver’s World Famous Anime Season Preview: Winter 2014 edition. If you are a regular of these most prestigious of lengthy blog posts, you will know that I like to let my cynical side take over and run amok over Japan’s latest animated offerings. Not this season though.... | | |
| 2:46am | Tensai Bakabon | | | | The early years of TV anime were occupied mostly by sci-fi and hero-style shows inspired by Tetsuwan Atom such as TCJ's Tetsujin 28-go and Toei Doga's Space Patrol Hopper. By 1965, audiences were getting bored with the formula, so a new type of show was attempted: the comedic home drama. Tokyo Movie... | | |
| 3:48pm | Has Kyoto Animation gone south? | | | | This is how I feel watching every KyoAni series for the past few seasons. Kyoto Animation has built quite a reputation for itself. A small production studio that began with anime series such as Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu, Air and Full Metal Panic: The Second Raid ― the third example being one of their... | | |
| 3:32am | Kill La Kill 5: I See What You Did There | | | | It seems like Kill La Kill is in a perpetual struggle to top itself in almost every regard. Fight intensity, brilliant musical score, wildly experimental visual design. Kill La Kill is the zenith of anime in our era, with all the techniques that have been developed since the beginning of the medium... | | |
| 12:30am | The Top 10 Best Anime Seasons of All Time | | | | It seems that as the seasons come and go, everyone has a different opinion on the current season of anime. But as soon as one season passes, and the next one comes, hardly anyone goes back to look at the seasons holistically. After all, once a season is over, the entity of the season becomes irrelevant;... | | |
| 6:00pm | Why ToraDora is (Currently) the Best Romantic Comedy | | | | Ever since my bashing of Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun, Clannad, and hell, even OreImo to a degree, people seem to think I just straight up despise the romance and drama genres themselves. That really isn’t true, I just think those shows had awful writing. Genres just dictate what the show is about and... | | |
| 4:21pm | Yozakura Quartet #05 — Donut Power | | | | What is this? Aquarion? Reminder. With Daylight Savings, everything effectively airs an hour earlier. Impressions: All the mixing timelines and reboots of this show are too hard for my poor brain to keep straight. When Akina and gang were gasping about Hime being non-human, which is apparently a... | | |
| 8:12am | Various Stats From the Second Round of the Anime Music Tournament | | | | We’re picking up steam now. The second round of the Animusic Tournament has already finished and we’re barreling through the third round as I write. Thanks to the seeding, the first round saw only a few truly tough match-ups to choose from; but, with each round going forward, it will get more and... | | |

| 4:37pm | Three-Episode Test – Fall 2013 |  | | | Luckily, there’s a lot of anime this season I usually drop shows whenever I feel like it, since I don’t have time to watch too many shows. This season I decided to try watching three episodes of each show that piqued my interest before dropping any of them. So here’s my thoughts on... | | |
