| 8:53pm | Idolm@ster Live For You is meh - Don’t buy it | | | | Honestly, don’t buy Live For You unless you’re looking for a game where you mash buttons to the beat of the music while the female characters of your choice dance and sing.

| 5:10pm | I am so glad I can FINALLY get into the Idolm@ster franchise | | | | I usually won’t get into anything related to a franchise if there isn’t a means for me to get into the main core of the given franchise.

| 3:01pm | New Years posts - They’re overrated and cliche - Looking back on 2008 | | | | HAPPY NEW YEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!! I ended up watching more in 2008 than in 2007, but not by much. Most of it is just due to tie in movies and what not, but still watching more and is watching more of it so I cannot complain.

| 10:51pm | Prospects for Winter 2009 Anime | | | | Compared to last season’s incredible lineup, this season is looking a little sparse. Many of the new shows premiering in the coming weeks didn’t really catch my interest and those that did are mostly sequels and or OVAs. That isn’t too say there aren’t any gems but I will be... | | |

| 7:35am | Christmas 2008 Drawing | | | | Instead of the obligatory Merry Christmas post that every other blogger does by posting an anime Christmas picture they found online, I decided to make one from scratch and drew Touhou Project’s Alice and Marisa under a mistletoe held up by Shanghai and Hourai. Alice is saying 「魔理沙ちゃん、キス... | | |
| 8:25pm | Mushi-Mushi?!? ~ Yeah I’m Still here… | | | | Hey all. Sorry for the long wait between entries. Despite my lack of employment the last month has proved to be rather busy for me, between drama, family stuff, side work, and looking for new work. Anyway, it’s that time of year again, Christmas. Can’t say I’m a huge holiday fan, but... | | |

Or want to do, for that matter. He... | | |

| 6:34pm | Sasaki Nozomi -- One of the Moe-est Voices in Anime | | | | I am addicted to the lovely liquid lisp of seiyuu Sasaki Nozomi (Nanami in Bokura ga Ita). I think she and Hanazawa Kana have the most moé voices in anime.The problem is, she doesn't get many roles. I heard her most recently last Saturday, when she played Kaede in episode 9 of Jigoku Shoujo Mitsuganae.... | | |
| 10:49pm | Yukiho is Moe | | | | Yukiho is very cute in this Idolm@ster MAD with a fine choice of song to boot. One of the best I’ve seen over this packed past week over at Nico. I’m going to have to fight hard to not pick up a PSP for im@s soon. Very hard, and I don’t have the cash to spend. Tagged: cute, cuuuuute,... | | |
