| 1:26am | Not anime, but might appeal to fans of ef |  | | | by dm00 TheBigN invited me here to talk about anime, but there’s lots of that happening, so I take refuge in the fact that “anime” is the Japanese word for animation (I got into anime because I was an animation fan, though I was made one, originally, by watching an anime as a child).... | | |
| 12:22am | Tales of the Abyss - Tear~♥ | | | | Kyaaaa~ So cute~♥!! I pretty much went into Tales of the Abyss because I liked [the little bit of] Tear that I got from playing Tales of the World: Radiant Mythology and wanted some MOAR Tear. Also, at first I was a bit worried knowing that game to anime anime don’t really work wellbut... | | |
| 6:26am | Moyashimon : Tales of Agriculture | | | | This is a short 11-episode anime which is in a genre all by itself. The main character Sawaki can see bacteria and other micro-organisms. Not only that, he can also talk to them! This is a light hearted series, and the main bad guy (if there is one) is an acidic bacteria which spoils sake. Much... | | |

| 11:30pm | Moyashimon manga licensed | | | | Getting brewed all over again. Moyashimon was one of the better surprises to come out of 2007, so it’s great to hear that the manga has been licensed by Del Rey. The 11 episodes that aired last year were quite entertaining, but I always felt like we got shortchanged. The characters and setting... | | |
| 5:55pm | NYAF08: Del Rey Manga | | | | Hokay, getting started on the Del Rey Manga panel, with Ali Kokmen presiding of course. (No bow tie this time around, nor a Dallas Middaugh– he’s on his honeymoon!) Cue me acting all jealous. Moving onDel Rey is doing comics based on Bakugan Battle Brawlers and Ben 10 as part of a new partnership... | | |
| 1:00pm | Tales of Symphonia OVA sequel officially announced | | | | The Tethe’alla episodes are officially on their way! And nearly a year later, the next set of episodes are finally announced for production. I really had hoped the Tethe’alla part of the story would get done immediately after the original 4 episode finished or soon after, but that never... | | |
| 11:06am | Cool Items: Wednesday, September 24, 2008 | | | | Here are today's "really cool products" that I've picked out for you, out of the 30+ new items we've added to the J-List and JBOX.com sites today.

| 7:06pm | awa08: Dark Horse | | | | Oooookay! We’re starting with the Dark Horse panel, and they’ve announced that they will announce stuff at NYAF– whee! But I guess nothing new here probably. Nonetheless, I blog on! We’re looking at samples of various upcoming relelases, including Hellsing 9 (!), the new Ah My... | | |
| 5:00am | Happy 1 Year Anniversary Epic Win! | | | | Hard to believe that it’s already been a full year since Guff and I first set up digs here, our humble abode at www.epicwin.org. It’s been a long and somewhat rocky path, as I’m sure is evidenced by our post count in recent months, but all in all we don’t regret one second of... | | |
| 9:32am | July Summary | | | | The summer-season has always been the season of short and varied series, and in 2008, it’s no different. There’s a wide variety of genres in this relatively small season, only horror seems to be missing at first glance. So far, there are a number of potential classics lurking among them. #30 (new)... | | |
| 2:38pm | Toshokan Sensou end: B-list anime done well | | | | This is one occasion where I make a distinction between ‘A-list’ and ‘B-list’ titles - in practice, it’s a difference between checking torrents lists and online DVD stores for the latest bunch of episodes daily or catching up when I have a day or two going spare. If I hadn’t watched... | | |
| 12:48pm | Itazura na Kiss - 01 - 15 - or: what the heck happened here? | | | | I just finished watching episode fifteen of this series, and I’ve got too many thoughts about this series and I don’t feel like waiting for this series to end to share them. It’s just too much of a shame to see that a series that I once loved for its witty humour degraded so much... | | |
