| 2:41pm | Tytania - 26 | | | | Short Synopsis: We all know what’s going to happen: the end of Zalish.

| 1:12pm | Druaga no Tou ~The Sword of Uruk~ Review - 80/100 | | | | The Sword of Uruk is the continuation to the surprisingly good Aegis of Uruk, which aired last year.

As for Father Kanae, oh god this guy is awesome. He’s almost like a less perverted version of Kanako except without the nosebleeds. Very delusional when it comes to understanding... | | |

| 6:44am | Top Picks – Winter 2009 Anime, Part 2: Genre Awards | | | | The first part looked at the characters within the show and now this group of awards (minus one misfit) looks at the series as a whole. I used many of the same categories from the 2008 best awards but I trimmed a few because there was not enough competition. For example, the category of best slice-of-life... | | |
