| 10:05am | Kaiba Review - 95/100 | | | | Welcome and say hello to one of the best anime of 2008, and along with Haibane Renmei and Hi no Tori, my favourite anime of only 12 or 13 episodes long. Kaiba is the product of director Masaaki Yuasa, who was the one behind Kemonozume, Cat Soup and Mind Game and it shows the result of when an already... | | |
| 9:35am | Kaiba - 12 | | | | Short Synopsis: Neiro tries to tell Kaiba his secret as Kaiba and Warp go out of control. Highlights: Not all questions answered, but this series somehow gets away with it Overall Enjoyment Value: 8,5/10 And so it’s unfortunately over. It was to be expected that not every question would be answered... | | |
| 8:02am | Genius Party - 06 - Happy Machine Review - 80/100 | | | | It’s back to the surreal with Masaaki Yuasa (Kaiba, Kemonozume, Mind Game)’s addition to Genius Party. He probably wrote this before he started working on Kaiba, and it’s very apparent that he wrote this in a stage where his distinctive sense of style was maturing. Happy Machine... | | |
| 4:47am | Kaiba ep12 (end): 카이바 12화 (완결) | | | | Click pictures to enlarge them. Spoilers ahead so please be cautious. So Kaiba ended. This never was my favorite show to blog but I ended up watching the entire show for some reason. When this show first aired, people either raved about unique and som.. 글 전체보기 | | |
| 4:40pm | Kaiba Episode 9 - Attack Warp! | | | | With the various Dadas under his control, Popo starts to put his final plan to take over the planet in motion - by getting Neiro to kill Kaiba and vice versa. Having brainwashed Neiro (and Cheki, after she tries to convince Neiro not to go through with it), the two ex-lovers confront each other as... | | |
| 12:10pm | Natsume Yuujinchou episode 3: Houston, we have comedy | | | | 2008 has been a Good Year for anime so far. We’ve had Geass R2, Kaiba, Spice and Wolf and many other really good shows. What 2008 has completely failed in is bringing us some decent comedy! I mean so far we’ve just had two sequels with Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei and Minami-ke, neither of which... | | |
| 12:10am | Weekly Review (June 29 – July 19) of Anime Watched | | | | Various reasons account for the lateness of this post and I almost wanted to let this feature slide but I’m going to try to keep it going. I also didn’t watch too much anime outside of the entire full metal panic series so even though this covers 3 weeks, there’s not that much to cover. Kaiba,... | | |
| 8:34am | Haibane Renmei Review: To Err and to Forgive (91%) |  | | | The fellowship of the wing How could I have sat on this sublime theological parable for so long? I had long heard about not only the artistic brilliance of Yoshitoshi ABe’s creation–something I certainly would believe given that his Serial Experiments: Lain is one of my favorites as well–but... | | |
| 1:41pm | Kaiba - 11 | | | | Short Synopsis: Popo continues his plans to overthrow the heavens. Highlights: This is what you get if you build up properly Overall Enjoyment Value: 9,5/10 Holy crap! This episode was utterly utterly incredible. The best episode of Kaiba yet, and with an already incredible series, that HAS TO SAY... | | |
| 6:52am | Kaiba ep11: 카이바 11화 | | | | Click pictures to enlarge them. Spoilers ahead so please be cautious. Hmm see, now here's the problem with Kaiba. Overall story wasn't bad at all. Plot twist and characters relationships were interesting and the fact that you can't trust what you se.. 글 전체보기 | | |
| 3:52am | Kaiba ep10: 카이바 10화 | | | | Click pictures to enlarge them. Spoilers ahead so please be cautious. So, we get to know what exactly happened between Neiro and Kaiba. While almost everything seems to connect, I'm still not sure how they are going to use the plant "kaiba". In any cas.. 글 전체보기 | | |
| 4:12am | Mike’s Belated, Grand High Roundup of Summer 2008 | | | | AX 2008 and its associated coverage put the new Summer 2008 season on hold for me. I’ve finally gotten around to actually watching a few of the new shows, though, and these are my thoughts. (An entry here does not guarantee regular blogging later.) All impressions are drawn from 1 or 2 episodes.... | | |
| 3:16am | Kaiba 8-9: Who’s Who | | | | A Warped Kaiba (harharhar) How long has it been since I wrote an actual, well, anime review? It’s fitting that my first regular, non-video entry has to do with my favorite show so far this year. The way the plot is at last starting to pick up is fascinating, partly because of the characters involved,... | | |
| 10:02pm | Kaiba Episode 8 - In Sheep’s Clothing | | | | Ah, this is the point where Kaiba starts getting even more complicated than usual So, Popo is running the One Thought Group (well, how ELSE are we going to translate issoudan? Leaving it in Japanese doesn’t make sense when there isn’t a single Japanese person in the cast) on a hypocritical... | | |
| 12:48pm | Hook, Line and Sinker | | | | Flyin in ur otakusphere shooting at ur postz. I’ll take the bait:[L]iterature (as a medium in general) is more cogitative than other media and that its primary purpose is to instruct before it entertains (at least it is for the books I read). [. . .] I’d argue that this is proven by the fact... | | |
