| 11:30pm | 57 Fall Anime -- story, staff, cast, trailer, pic | | | | There are more new shows this fall than in any season over the past few years. But I'm not sure the quality -- or at least the appeal to my taste -- will be that high. I don't see any shows I expect to be as good as the great shows of this past summer season, such as Aoi Hana and Bakemonogatari. But... | | |

| 5:05am | Yoku Wakaru Gendai Mahou begins |  | | | What is up with the idea of episode zero recently? It used to be uncommon, but after Haruhi it became the norm. I cannot say that I’m very happy with all the yelling and exaggerated reactions. Both representatives of previous generation of busty women are defective (petty crime on one side, bad... | | |
| 8:19pm | Reviews on new artbooks | | | | 半月 -HANGETSU-, one of the artbooks that, regretfully, I didn't buy. More on that later. Of course, by new, I mean newly acquired.

| 4:56pm | Chäos;HEad, Episode 1 | | | | In the anime business, we often see VN adaptations, mostly eroge.

Certainly we’ve seen... | | |
| 6:23am | First Impressions: Clannad ~After Story~ & … | | | | But no, Dango Daikazoku isn’t the ED anymore. ;_; The new season’s here, but like any season where things don’t look too familiar, it can be hard (at least to me) to stop nitpicking at things and choose something that you can find worth watching. That usually works out with people,... | | |

| 2:00am | Is There Such A Thing As A Superior Genre? | | | | This struck me in the midst of a conversation that I had with a particular friend while discussing about our favorite anime shows. As we were talking about favorites, the discussion eventually led to ‘genres’ as my friend spearheaded it with his statement that none of his top picks are... | | |
| 5:00pm | Autumn series 2008 ~ Where the orange leaves fall | | | | Uu! Uu! Cute girl! And just as we are about to finish summer and bid goodbye to those lovely, sunny rays (for some parts of the world anyway), Autumn is here again to bring us a bucket load of 30-something new series.
