| 1:33pm | Genshiken 2 げんしけん Ep. 5 |  | | | Well, this episode certainly wasbizarre. The screen time is monopolized by Ogiue’s fantasy of all the male characters in Genshiken getting it on with one another. Particuluarly, Kanji and Sasahara, since they seem to be close friends in real life. But it’s not just a quick, dirty thought.... | | |
| 12:54pm | Genshiken 2 げんしけん Ep. 4 | | | | They finally got Ohno and Tanaka together. I can just imagine what kind of gross otaku sex they had. Sweaty, unwashed flab must have bounced everywhere. Ugh. I found it hard to care about this episode because I’m not really interested in relationship anime. The tone just felt wrong, or something.... | | |
| 11:51am | Mainichi Junk: January 25th, 2008 | | | | Code Geass season 2 previewThe-O Network broke the news on Wednesday that the second Code Geass DVD Magazine (AA) contains footage from the show's second season, scheduled to air starting this April. Those wishing to remain unspoiled for the action should definitely not click on this link for more information;... | | |
| 1:59pm | Genshiken 2 げんしけん Ep. 3 | | | | And so the mini-arc of Genshiken creating their own fan comic reaches a conclusion. This was certainly the best episode of the second season. It had jokes, a light-hearted nature, and didn’t take itself too seriously. The best part of all was that it almost completely omitted Saki. Unfortunately,... | | |
| 7:05am | Genshiken 2 げんしけん Ep. 2 | | | | Where were all the jokes? This episode delved further into the difficulties involved in creating a comic book. There were creative differences, people not carrying out their assignments, general confusion, and a few hurt feelings. I imagine this has got to be somewhat similar to real life. And while... | | |

| 11:12am | Mega Round-Up: January 11th | | | | Fellow anime fans, heed my words- never, ever let a massive backlog build up, for it will crush your very soul. Sadly, there is still much I have to catch up on, but in the meantime enjoy my coverage of what I have managed to get through since mid-December.Reviewed this week: Aria the Origination 1,... | | |
| 10:38pm | Minami-ke: Okawari - 01 |  | | | OP: “Kokoro no Tsubasa (ココロノツバサ)” by Rina Satou, Marina Inoue & Minori Chihara - Holy crap! This was like the coolest thing ever, haha! It’s kind of like the Genshiken 2 parody, but not really. Anyways, I love it. | | |
| 9:52pm | The study of contemporary job prospects | | | | Genshiken 2 is like a compilation of how things work, and not just things that you’d rather not know about. Sure, there’s some self-deprecating humour in the “Dude, we’re such losers” vein, but thankfully that’s kept to a minimum. I think we’re a self-deprecating... | | |
| 2:41pm | Genshiken 2 げんしけん Ep. 1 | | | | And so I have finally reached the second season of the otaku-based anime series, Genshiken. After a pretty good first season, and a horrendous OVA, I was very curious to see which direction this new season would take. Would it follow in the footsteps of the first season, and be solidly entertaining?... | | |
| 2:29am | genshiken 2 wrapup |  | | | Generally, I’m not the biggest fan of slice of life comedies. Not saying that they’re bad or anything, but I tend to not really laugh that much at them nor do I get any real insights into everyday life from them. For every say, Ichigo Mashimaro, there’s abunch of Minami-ke’s... | | |
| 8:50pm | End of Autumn Season '07 | | | | Some pretty good series ended a few days ago. HiguKai was amazing, as well as Genshiken. Minami-ke, Night Wizard and Ninomiya were very funny and enjoyable. ef and Kodomo offered a good load of drama and the latter a lot of controversy. Finally, Sky Girls and Blue Drop can remind you the downhill that... | | |
| 7:31pm | My Picks of Anime ‘07 |  | | | Best ” OVA ” - ARIA the AriettaOk, actually ARIA the Arietta was probably the only OVA from this year I saw, but it doesn’t mean it wasn’t good. Like everything about ARIA, it was great; calming, funny, whimsical, and slightly melancholic. Fortunately the OVA did not signal the... | | |
| 7:04am | Genshiken 2, Episode 12- Final Episode and Series Impressions |  | | | Yes, I take every opportunity to put Ogiue fanservice on the front page of this blog.Ah the wonderful ride has finally come to a close for this season. This final episode is mostly focused on Sasahara and his struggles in getting a job once again. We don’t really get a final resolution to everything... | | |
