| 10:46am | The first semester in Japan is almost over - Let it end already | | | | Something I definitely am not getting anything of over here. So the semester is almost over here in Japanland where I am living for the year on study abroad. The entries I did earlier this semester all seems like a weird mix of blur and culture shock because I cannot really understand where I was... | | |
| 8:28pm | Weekly Digest - 11/30/08 | | | | Time was something I thought I could use hither dither. If I had a pile of work to do, I would think that I had more than enough time to do it so I would go and watch Anime or read Manga. It’s becoming more and more evident to me that I can’t think that way. There’s a word for this:... | | |

| 10:27am | My Hopes for 2009! | | | | 2008 unfortunately hasn’t been a great year of anime etc for me. With me forced to drop many things out of sheer boredom, hasn’t been so bad this season, althrough I have only managed to just watch the episodes, but not review them. (Except To Aru Majutsu no Index dunno where that went).Therefore,... | | |
| 1:01pm | Negima - Volume 1 | | | | Negima is also a special manga series to me. After finishing reading Love Hina (Which took me a fair while as I wasn’t really into the manga yet), I just happened to find the first volume of this in my local library. I remember finding this volume rather interesting and then going on to read every... | | |
| 2:05am | Magza: Negima | | | | After 200 chapters of wondering, we finally see why Nagi’s considered a hero. Ah, I’ve always been a bit of a fan girl for him, so this made me really happy. Chapter 229 teases us with a message from Fate Tertium to Negi, which involves the truth from 10 years ago! The end of chapter 233... | | |
| 4:46pm | AFA 2008: The day before… |  | | | God, I’m crazy tired. Thank god Singapore and thank god Hakuro for Internet access. It’s been a hectic first day with me travelling from KL to Singapore and directly heading to the event venue with nary a break to catch the press conference and to interview May’n in person. While... | | |
| 2:45pm | Negima! 233 | | | | Oh my, Anya. Is that you?! No wonder she’s been missing all this while. I was starting to think Akamatsu forgot about her totally. (btw her lines in Ala Alba OAD 02 are quite a bitch LOLOL) It’s been a while since I posted about Negima, since they were going in to the flashback arc. Personally,... | | |
| 5:57pm | Weekly Digest: 11/16/08 | | | | One thing I’m sure most Anime viewers like about Anime is that it is virtually a part of our imagination. In my younger days I have wanted to use to “Kamahamaha” or however you spell it. Other things that glistened in my mind was the ability to fly and transform. To this day, I’ve... | | |
| 5:28am | Negima Onsen Oppai Anime OAD |  | | | Volume 24 of the Mahou Sensei Negima manga comes accompanied with an OAD (OAV), which is to say the publishers have devised a crafty way of making fans of either version pay for both. Whatever the case, both versions are packed full of ecchi content, with plenty of exposed breasts and an onsen special,... | | |
| 9:06pm | What’s old is new again with extras | | | | The Genshiken Official Data Book is due December 16 in English, providing profile details, side stories, and even an interview with Love Hina and Negima creator Akamatsu Ken. I already have the book in Japanese, so I was a little on the fence about re-buying it in English, but then I went to Del Rey’s... | | |
| 5:31am | The Daily Dose |  | | | Manga Announcements:• Full Moon wo Sagashite mangaka Tanemura Arina will be launching a new manga in January called Sakura-Hime Kaden in the shoujo manga magazine Ribon. Saboten no Himitsu's Haruta Nana and Aishiteruze Baby's Maki Youko will also be starting new manga series in Ribon in the new... | | |
| 11:00pm | SHAFT - Studio Studies Part Three | | | | Now that I’ve covered what I consider the best along with the most influential studio, I have to talk about my personal favorite, SHAFT. SHAFT was formed in 1975, which comes as a surprise to me because besides their first single-handed production in 1987, Yume Kara, Samenai (which I only just... | | |
| 5:06pm | Yuri on the Chalkboard Week 4 | | | | As a change of pace, I decided to draw a comedic yuri picture instead of a serious one this time. This week I drew Konoe Konoka and Sakurazaki Setsuna from Mahou Sensei Negima about to perform a “Pactio.” Original pic below: I forgot what chapter of the manga this comes from but I believe... | | |
| 5:03am | To Aru Majutsu No Index 2: Innocentius |  | | | Whew, getting back on track now. So much for the sudden leap of chapters for Index, manga-wise, though it didn’t really leap as far as Toradora did. I don’t like Styl taking the spotlight that long anyway.Seriously, the fight this time around was a bit intense, yet also a bit strange, maybe... | | |
