| 12:19am | Spring 2009 Series Preview - No Funny Business | | | | Memories of Green ~ The Spring 2009 Season Is Here At Anime History This Saint Patrick’s Day Weekend. Every 3 months I do one of these.every three months, and now I’m doing the grunt work too. Last time I tried to do my review in jest along with some researched observations and got flamed... | | |
| 12:00pm | IchigoYuri TGIF Updates 13 | | | | [Posted @ 6:57 PM]Hmm, nothing unusual happened in my life recently, just trying to study, catching up with family (We can always find something to talk about), thinking of what to eat/prepare for lunch every single day, lazing around on my bed, going out for grocery shopping and chatting/voice-chatting... | | |
| 9:32pm | JP.Hinano Spring 2009 preview |  | | | No matter how wrong previews get (I had high hopes for Hyakko one time, and dismissed Sekirei as a boob show on the other), they can always be made fun. Sadly, they not always are. But JP/Hinano’s one is. BTW, I could not stand School Rumble either. | | |

| 5:31am | Face Off: Ray and Mike Play the “White Album” and Riff on the 1980s |  | | | Ray:I’m wondering if I should continue to watch White Album. It’sfrankly, seemingly a little plain vanilla. Mike: You know, I think that’s a good description of it. It felt very bland and unfocused. The character interactions were very flat. Ray: Aya-chan is being the imouto character,... | | |
| 10:06pm | Hyakko - Episode 13 (Completed) | | | | So, we reach the final episode of Hyakko, and it appears that the series has pulled a bit of a Hidamari Sketch on us, switching us around to the first day of school before most of the major characters had ever met one another.While I suppose this is an interested concept to shake things up a bit, and... | | |
| 8:50pm | Anime Maker Seeks Arrest of Hyakko Critics |  | | | The maker of nondescript school anime Hyakko may very well be planning to pursue criminal slander charges against persistent online detractors who have been brazen enough to call the not universally well received anime “rubbish”. Slander is a criminal as well as civil offence in Japan, with substantial... | | |

| 8:00am | Hyakko - 13 [Final] |  | | | We see how everyone prepared for their first day of school, before the series started. Impressions: I wasn’t sure what to expect from this episode. The previous episode had a very “final episode” feel to it. The way it showed everyone together, all Torako’s friends coming together in her support,... | | |
| 4:00am | Hyakko - 12 |  | | | We learn of the problems Torako has with her family as her sister Oniyuri is introduced. Impressions: I was very surprised by this episode. It wasn’t at all what I expected. I eventually expected the show to give some focus to Torako’s sister, as they kept briefly featuring her, but I didn’t... | | |
| 12:00am | Hyakko - 11 |  | | | Torako’s class all plays dodge ball against each other. Impressions: I thought this was a great episode. I really hope they fit in more episodes with everyone together as a group like this. Although the individual episodes that focused on one character were fun, when they showcase everyone together... | | |
| 11:42pm | Hyakko - Episode 12 | | | | After the last episode of Hyakko surprised a little by turning on the humour where it had previously been lacking, the latest instalment of this slice of life series turned things entirely on their head, eschewing comedy almost entirely in favour of a far more dramatic storyline.For starters, we're finally... | | |
| 10:07pm | Hyakko - Episode 11 | | | | Well, whaddya know? After having quite the moan about how dull and unfunny episode ten of Hyakko had proved to be, so it goes and manages to improve itself in the very next episode. Not to the heights of absolute hilarity admittedly, but it made for a far more entertaining prospect nonetheless.The... | | |
| 8:32pm | Hyakko - Episode 10 | | | | Another episode of Hyakko introduces us to yet another "new" (new, as in we've seen her before but didn't really know anything about her) character, but yet again it appears to have left its sense of humour at the dry cleaners or something.This time around, the emphasis of the episode is upon Touma Kazamatsuri... | | |
| 8:22pm | 2008 Summary - Part II | | | | I originally wanted to wait with posting this until Porfy no Nagai’s final episode got released, but its time is nearly running out here. The Share-uploaders have a very cruel sense of humour: out of all the episodes they could have picked to delay, it became that one. In any case, here’s... | | |
