| 5:54pm | Weekly Anime Review (Nov 2 – Nov 8) | | | | Diet warriors attack!!The big news in anime this week, at least to me, is that it appears KyoAni’s next series will be a Munto series that expands and retells the OVA. I haven’t seen Munto but I have an excellent AMV downloaded called “Sunlight” by Premonition Studios that uses Munto and makes... | | |
| 9:12pm | Michiko to Hatchin episode 3 | | | | Ah yes, the third episode of Michiko was important because it was here that it had to show, in my eyes anyway, that the last episode wasn’t a fluke and it wasn’t going to go back to that crappy form of the first episode.And it did! This show is beginning to live up to my | | |
| 2:46am | Michiko to Hatchin 02 |  | | | Summary: 12 years ago in Vermelha, Michiko was arrested for supposedly being part of the Fantasma crime syndicate. The sergeant in charge of the capture is Michiko’s childhood rival Atsuko Jackson, whom Michiko calls “Jumbo” (per Atsuko’s huge afro). It seems that Michiko... | | |
| 6:39pm | Sasa on the Autumn |  | | | A rather longish list is up on Heterochromia. Sasa is behind on most shows, but for me it’s not a problem. I’ve just finished Toradora 03 yesterday too. I love it when people make an effort to summarize the shows briefly, even when we strongly disagree (e.g. Sasa is into yuri in general).... | | |
| 9:10pm | Michiko to Hatchin episode 2 | | | | Michiko to Hatchin returns after a 2 week absence. I would normally say ‘finally’ but the first episode hardly inspired confidence. So Michiko had a lot to prove.And boy, did it improve! Compared the the drab, badly scripted first episode, this was fantastic! This episode starts off with... | | |
| 11:33am | On “Character” III: Architecture of Signification |  | | | Now, to clarify a bit, the first post put forth a model of signification, which in itself is fairly problematic (the details thereof I’ll address below): visual appearance [signifies] personality [signifies] ideology The second post briefly investigated how visual appearance itself is a structure... | | |
| 10:14am | Michiko to Hatchin 03 ー ミチコとハッチン | | | | Rating: 03: 「Like a Desperate Pinball Machine -しゃかりきピンボー 」 BSS just made my win-list (again) for promptly releasing the subs for this episode of Michiko to Hatchin! So, thanks to them for that. Credit where credit is due, and the question right... | | |
| 11:13pm | Michiko to Hatchin 02 ーミチコとハッチン | | | | Rating: 01: 「Brown Sugar on the Run From the Law -掟破りブラウンシュ 」 Unfortunately, it’s been a while since I saw the first episode, and this does seem like the kind of show where pacing matters. The episodes so far have not been episodic in... | | |
| 8:06am | [The season in question] v0.1 Kannagi, why I think it is great. |  | | | This is an unfortunate season for me as blogger but a great one as a spectator. How could such a dichotomy arise? Let me explain: First, let’s talk about the season a bit. The season is GREAT; Barack Obama is in office, the anime is glorious, my first semester in University has been amazing,... | | |
| 7:56am | Introduction: Tril the Blogger (an Essential Demographic) |  | | | As you know, Divine was a valuable contributor here at Random Curiosity, and since his departure Omni has been looking for someone to help out. I can only hope I’ll be of some service as a new team member here, and honestly I’m very much looking forward to working with all of you. I’ve been... | | |
| 8:39am | Michiko to Hatchin [Episode 2] Finally, Right!?!? |  | | | The quality of screencaps in my first post was seriously lacking, as many people have pointed out to me. So as compensation, in classic Random Curiosity style, I’ve decided to appeal to both quantity and quality by littering this post with pics from the best looking torrent I could find. Enjoy!... | | |
| 10:12pm | Michiko e Hatchin - 02 | | | | Short Synopsis: Obviously, the police isn’t going to let Michiko get away without a fight. Highlights: Surprisingly genuine. Overall Enjoyment Value: 7,5/10 (Good) Well, since Michiko e Hatchin’s second episode took so long to come out, it’s taken me quite a while to finalize my... | | |
| 4:01am | Michiko to Hatchin, Around the Sphere | | | | Oh shlizaps! I’m basically super late to the premier of Michiko to Hatchin, but what the hell was up with the first batch of RAWS terrible, I was also in Las Vegas for 4 days. Having watched sudo’s version, and been alerted that Animanda and AonE are collaborating, I’m mixed about... | | |
