| 4:22am | Junjou Romantica - 03 |  | | | This week seems to focus on another BL pairing so now I have to remember even more names! The episode begins by showing a ronery guy without his buttsecks partner thinking about the hawt night he had before. For some reason in the flashback one of the dudes must be into S&M cause he’s got... | | |
| 2:51pm | THAT Blogging schedule for Spring 2008 |  | | | Dear readers and writers, As our blogging schedule is officially screwed, I am setting one up to accommodate everyone (and also to prevent massive orgies on some days). This is the tentative schedule, NOT subjected to change. This means you, THAT Anime Blogger, better follow it. The time in brackets... | | |
| 9:59pm | Junjou Romantica Episode 2: And on to the bed… or sofa | | | | (Apologies for the rather late post. I was going to post yesterday night, but the blog was down, and I had work all day today. And apologies too for not returning comments from the last episode. I’ve been ultra busy. I’ll try to do better this week.) Warning! Episode 2 has a bit more steam than... | | |
| 2:12am | Junjou Romantica - 02 | | | | For one reason or another, over 200 people want me to blog this show so I guess I will. Although since I’m not really into BL it’ll probably be a big sarcast fest, although I have a feeling that’s why people voted “HELL YEA!” anyway. So anyway the episode begins with... | | |
| 7:32am | Monochrome Factor 1 | | | | There are no females depicted in this image. The protagonist, Nakaido Akira, is a bit of a delinquent. He is on the roof playing instruments with other students when his classmate, Suzuna Aya, comes to fetch him. She's pretty short tempered, so Akira escapes to skip school and go home. On the... | | |
| 4:18am | First Look Fair’s Shoujo Special: Itazura na Kiss and Special A |  | | | This certainly seems to be the season for the return of shoujo romance and other female-oriented anime (i.e., BL in Junjou Romantica and vampires), after a good long run of shounen romances for the past two seasons. How are two of the most prominent ones stacking up so far? Itazara na Kiss This really... | | |
| 4:41pm | My Two-Sided Relationship with Junjou Romantica | | | | Junjou Romantica at its finest. Much has been said about dissing-or-dismissing a show for what it’s really worth, simply because of the genre it falls under, a point of contention in the blogosphere for who knows how long, and a topic tackled by Stripey-nii and Owen a few months back. As much... | | |
| 6:32pm | Junjou Romantica vs Impz - The viewing of BL | | | | The most reader-friendly image I can find for a splash image before the cut. You have heard from Briar and her entry on Junjoun Romantica.. Now it is my turn, the guys’ perspective of BL (yes, surprise!). As a promise to my girlfriend (the other promise being blogging Angelique which I decided... | | |
| 3:24pm | Junjou Romantica Episode 1 – BL bordering on Yaoi | | | | Warning: This is in-your-face Boy Love, bordering on yaoi in terms of steaminess. If you are homophobic and/or violently allergic to male-male romance, I advise you not to watch the anime. Yes, I’m blogging this very controversial anime. At least for an episode or two. I can say that I’m doing... | | |
| 7:34pm | Junjou Romantica #01 — It’s Raining Men | | | | Or would you prefer a Village People joke? Impressions: Guinea pigs are one of my favorite pets. They’re extremely docile and very sociable animals and unlike most other rodents, are highly emotive through purrs and squeals. Also unlike hamsters or rats or other disgusting pests, they’re... | | |
| 2:19am | Junjou RoMANtica 01 - Surprise Buttsecks! | | | | In the DVD version, this scene will be brightly lit. Well what did you expect? It’s a yaoi/BL anime based on a yaoi BL manga. It reminds me of Gravitation a lot because at first the protagonist is like “I DON’T LOVE MEN” then he suddenly realizes he wants some in his butt and... | | |
| 1:38am | 2008 Spring Season Week 1 Comprehensive Wrapup | | | | Too. Damn. Many. New. Shows. Aroduc tired! Well, I’ve watched everything new except for Junjou Romantica, which I can’t imagine I’ll actually follow Golgo 13, which starts tomorrow, Kyouran Nikki/Chico which start on Saturday and Penguin Girl which starts in two weeks. I’m... | | |
| 11:27pm | Soul Eater: Late Night version and other Spring Updates | | | | For those who haven’t heard already (or didn’t read the tiny hint I gave in my previous Soul Eater post), Soul Eater is set to air on two different days each week. On Mondays, the regular daytime version is released, and on Thursdays a “Late Night” (LN) version will be released.... | | |
| 12:45am | spring 2008 preview: eh, maybe |  | | | What I’ll actually watch: Macross Frontier (4/3/08) Code Geass R2: Code Harder (4/6/08) Golgo 13 (4/11/08) The first two are pretty self-explanatory. Code Geass was the best anime of 2007 and all, and Macross Frontier is well, Macross. Macross Frontier got a ton of bonus points when I found... | | |
| 8:58pm | 49 New Anime: preview, staff, cast, story, pic | | | | As usual, what looked like a poor season is actually shaping up to have a number of interesting shows. Nothing so far looks like an instant classic, but there are always surprises. And with 49 shows (including OVAs), there could be plenty of surprises.Hirano Aya returns to anime in a big way, starring... | | |
