| 6:10am | October Summary | | | | Okay, so since this list already is huge for this month, I decided to omit the OVAs in this list, along with series that have already finished and belong to the previous season, like Chi’s Sweet Home and Wagaya no Oinarisama, in an attempt to keep this list a bit overviewable (although I do want... | | |
| 5:00am | Weekly Anime Review (Oct 19 - 25) | | | | Massive amounts of anime was watched this week by me and I still feel like I’ve not watched enough of the series because I’m skipping sequels to shows that I haven’t seen the previous season of. As a side effect of rating so much anime at this concentrated rate, I’m finding it easier to see... | | |
| 12:00am | Hyakko - 03 |  | | | Torako is informed that she has been appointed to be a morals officer by her class. Impressions: This episode was hilarious. I was somewhat worried about this series, because even after the first two episodes it wasn’t absolutely drop-dead hilarious and great. IT wasn’t horrible, but the humorous... | | |
| 2:09pm | The season without a hidden gem |  | | | One of the best things about anime is finding something unexpectedly enjoyable. After the failure of Hyakko, I triggered a surprisingly robust discussion about it on #animeblogger yesterday. All sorts of suggestions were offered, including really weird stuff like One Outs. But in the end it’s... | | |
| 3:00am | Hyakko - 02 | | | | The girls all try out together for the different clubs that the school has, and get into a competition with each other. Impressions: I thought this episode was very funny. There’s not much else to say about this show other then that. It doesn’t try and have any plot, it doesn’t focus on romance... | | |
| 7:00pm | Hyakko - 01 | | | | A group of girls get lost in their huge school on the first day. Impressions: I didn’t really know anything about this series going into it except that it would be mostly comedy and more importantly have Hirano Aya in it, so I can’t really match this show up against expectations I had. Although... | | |
| 3:57pm | Hyakko- episode 02 |  | | | Wreaking havoc in every club they go to. This episode follows the same pattern as the previous one: take a small mundane activity, then twist it and inject with enough craziness to fill the whole episode. In episode 1 the girls were looking for their classroom, this time it’s about finding the... | | |
| 5:26am | Hyakko 02 | | | | Ep.02 is about Hyakko antagonizing Tatsuki and not receiving any comeuppance (while they hop school clubs). I guess creators extracted wrong lessons from Tomo/Yomi and Konata/Kagami. The best part of the show is the commercials. I noted especially the LadyGuard: the drug that makes women pee less.... | | |
| 12:00pm | Hyakko Ep4 | | | | [Posted @ 9:00 PM]XD woots, a combi of Chapter 3 and Chapter 6 XD.Torako got pushed down by Nene XD. Scoop! Scandal!!! *snap snap snap*Screenshot these cos the mediaplayer thumbfile function doesn't do this episode justice.This episode is full of win, the flow is way better now, lol I like the scene... | | |
| 9:43am | Hyakko - Episode 3 | | | | Hyakko thus far has pretty much set out its stall as a decidedly average school-based slice-of-life anime series, which certainly hasn't managed to command the laughs of some of the other notable shows in this genre. Can episode three fare any better?In all honesty, not really, with episode three giving... | | |
| 3:52am | Hyakko begins | | | | Looks like my bright hope for the season turned out to be a dud, and I’m saying that as a guy who liked the food discussion in Lucky Star 01. Talk about dragging forever. I heard from bloggers that it gets better later, for example Kuro said about ep.02: “Oh my god, Hyakko went from “mediocre”... | | |
| 1:38am | Too Many Good Anime | | | | There are just too many good anime this season.Here's my own watch-list of raws:Monday: Vampire Knight - Guilty, ef - a tale of melodies. (2)Tuesday: Kurozuka, Hakushaku to Yousei, Mouryou no Hako. (3)Wednesday: Toradora, Hyakko, Bounen no Xamdo. (3)Thursday: Chaos;Head, Tytania, Nodame Cantabile Paris,... | | |
| 9:07am | Hyakko - A tale of introversion and bread. | | | | What follows in this post is the mad ramblings of a person who forced himself to watch something crap. Super crap. It was about as bland as a piece of bread. Bread that had perhaps been left in the cupboard too long and had gone a little dry. It was horrible. It was so horrible I cannot even be bothered... | | |
| 5:43am | Hyakko Episode 4 |  | | | After today’s episode, I was diagnosed with a severe fit of laughter. Funniest ep so far!Sadly, no new Hyakko next week, it seems. (No info on TVTokyo timetable either, it’s a huge blank shortly after Tora Dora.)I guess this is the last time I’ll be complaining about the opening. It’s... | | |
