| 9:43pm | Nova’s 12 Anime Moments - Using This Post to Exemplify My Nonconformity | | | | I guess this is my official Anime 2008 Face. I’m overusing it, I know. As you can see on the topic, I too did end up spreading the cancer of 12 Days of Animu Moments or whatever it was called. This damn thing has grown popular as both posting topic and a flaming target as any even remotely similar... | | |
| 4:17am | On “Character” IV: Lead Paradigm Binary |  | | | Like a jigsaw puzzle, the structure of a cast can conform to rigid patterns. In the first post this was made evident with the brains/brawns dynamic shown by Ichigo-Uryuu and Mugen-Jin. In other action shows, however, the brains/brawn duo isn’t a necessity, and a binary will materialize in a different... | | |
| 3:02pm | Twelve Moments in Anime 2008 - #12 : Hidamari Sketch x365 11 | | | | As described by CCY over at M3 -December 14th to Christmas Day (the 25th).Twelve moments in anime, one a day.Let’s join in a display of enthusiasm and spirit~Those moments that stick with you, through your troubled times and your happy times, that really make that passion within you burn…Now let’s... | | |
| 7:15am | To Heart is rather boring |  | | | I don’t think anyone considers To Heart amazing or a must watch. Perhaps it’s simply because of age, but To Heart simply doesn’t work its magic as a eroge adaptation (not that I’ve played the game) or a slice of life show. After watching other slice of life shows, I find To Heart... | | |
| 3:42am | Where are My Hidamari Sketch x365 Figures? | | | | In today’s random thought of the day, why isn’t a single Hidamari Sketch x365 figure? Where’s my episode 1 red skirt Yuno figure? Or a Miyako Figma? I’d consider buying a figure for once, if so! | | |
| 9:41am | DVD Sales Ranking: Strike Witches & Kannagi Dominate |  | | | The latest DVD sales figures to emerge, covering the week of the November new release period, are rather interesting to behold, showing as they do the expected success of two of the titles we favour so much here, Kannagi and Strike Witches. Legend: Rank / (Overall Rank) / Sales / Total Sales / Weeks... | | |
| 5:00am | Hidamari Sketch x365 - Final Impressions |  | | | It’s a bit hard to say much about this show. This show in it’s entirely can be summed up as “slice-of-life” It really does just fit this genre perfectly. Sure there are some comedy moments in it, but comedy really doesn’t seem to be the main focus of the show at all. In fact there are many... | | |
| 9:53pm | Hidamari Sketch x365 - Episode 13 (Completed) | | | | Seeing as one of the group's Tanabata wishes last episode was for them to carry on as they were forever, I was kind of hoping for the same thing, but alas here we are at the end of Hidamari Sketch x365, this time jumping forward (or is it backwards? It's always so hard to tell with this show) to the... | | |
| 11:04am | Hidamari Sketch x365 - Episode 12 | | | | It's Tanabata at Hidamari Apartments, but for once all is not well - Sae and Hiro appear not to be talking to one another, but how on Earth could that have happened? Is it a matter of passion? A matter of surface? A matter of perverts? (You really can't beat Japanese wordplay)So, as the episode goes... | | |
| 4:38pm | Since Time Immemorial - thoughts on the blogging tradition? | | | | ←[80] Omisyth posted his (her?) thoughts on the long-lasting dichotomy of episodic and editorial blogs. As its title may suggest, the interplay of thoughts is an ongoing, consistently occurring one. Various points have been made. Kabitzin succinctly puts his opinion as “[i]t’s not that... | | |
| 1:35pm | One Year Later, A Genshiken Review | | | | It might seem a bit too dramatic for me to say that Genshiken changed my life, but as I look at the influence that Genshiken has had upon me, including but not limited to the very existence of this blog, I have to say it isn’t an exaggeration. To celebrate the one year anniversary of Ogiue Maniax,... | | |
| 10:57pm | Hidamari Sketch x365 - Episode 11 | | | | Hidamari Sketch x365, it's been so long since you last graced us with your presence, and how I've missed you soIt may have been far too long a break without a new instalment from Hidamari apartments, but episode eleven of x365 wasted no time in getting back to the joys that this series brings, beginning... | | |
| 1:10pm | Thoughts on Hidamari Sketch x365 Episode 9: Girls on Film |  | | | When I see Yoshinoya-sensei in action, it makes me feel guilty, since I feel like a kindred spirit on some senses. In terms of things that “matter”, things that she “needs” to do, she’s a chronic procrastinator. I totally understand having priorities that take personal... | | |
| 6:58am | MSPaint Yunocchi | | | | I was bored when I came across an interesting thread on /jp/ today so I decided to follow the instructions and draw Yuno from Hidamari Sketch in MSPaint without a tablet using only my mouse. After over 1000 hours in MSPaint, I have finally finished. Paint’s save function sucks so I ended up... | | |
| 3:26pm | Yuri Manga: Choir!, Volume 1 | | | | Choir! was one of the manga I picked up last month that, despite my best efforts, I found I did not hate. lol The color art on the back cover and inside really pushed my ability to tolerate and, in fact, upon revisiting this manga, I find myself repusled all over again by them. However, the manga itself... | | |
