| 5:30pm | Night Head Genesis 05 | | | | “Remembrance” The pattern of continuing to go uphill in quality has continued in a big way with this episode. A very thoroughly good episode it was indeed. I was waiting for this show to make me feel any kind of emotion, whether it be happiness, excitement, sadness or otherwise. It was | | |
| 2:14pm | Night Head Genesis 04 | | | | “Scars” Well, this episode gave us at least a small hint at what’s really going on. I guess I was wrong about Reiko being under the influence of whatever the Minus Energy is supposed to be and we have something new to worry about, that is, “The Ark.” This show is | | |
| 7:56am | Night Head Genesis 03 | | | | “Impatience” Impat ience, eh? This show is really lucky that I have any patience for it at all with the way things are going. But I do have the patience and I still have that intrigue that makes me want to keep going. This episode really didn’t make much sense at all, but I can see... | | |
| 8:40pm | Night Head Genesis - 09 - How Far Will This Anime Go? | | | | Hmm, the current arc isn’t really that good. Not enough pain and suffering. Except for the vision with the little girl. That one was great. It seems that the main plot is something else than the dangerous disease which spread, and if things all go well, the woman who attacked Naoya will be | | |
| 8:04pm | Night Head Genesis 02 | | | | “Contact” This one was much better than the last, but there is still room for much improvement. It looks like Naota and Naoya are going to be getting into this sort of trouble where ever they go, no matter how much they try to conceal the fact that they have these powers. Hell, with | | |
| 5:55pm | Night Head Genesis 01 | | | | Director: Yoshio TakeuchiMusic: Shigeru UmebayashiCharacter Design: You HiguriStudio: Bee Media “Memory” Thi s one is based on an old Japanese live-action TV series from the early 90’s, if I remember correctly, about two kids who have the ability to use the “excess” | | |
| 3:42pm | Higurashi no Naku Koro ni - 24 - Many answers, many questions | | | | After two episodes in which the main storyline was rather ignored, Higurashi suddenly returns with an episode full of revelations and explanations. Rina’s now out of the picture, so that Rena can concentrate on other things, and she once again proves her detective skills. The Watanagashi is | | |
| 10:11am | Night Head Genesis: Episodes 5 & 6 | | | | Impressions:This series is really quite unsettling. Especially the puzzle with the doll’s eyes, and whether they were blue or red. Episode 6 was just disturbing, with the teacher stabbing her patients But it was this unsettling feeling that increased my interest in the show. I wish | | |
| 1:30am | Pruning of the List: Dropped series | | | | Click here to view larger versionIn anticipation of the arrival of Fall anime season, I’ve been pruning my list of animes, dropping some so that I can fit a little bit more into my list. I’m losing the drive to watch every single anime that comes out.It takes too much time, and | | |
| 9:06pm | Night Head Genesis - 08 - Ah, So That’s Shouko’s Power | | | | An episode focused on the main plot of the anime, instead of an individual case. A bit less awesome than usual, though. There wasn’t enough pain and suffering, unfortunately. In any case, a few things about Shouko become clear. It seems that she’s at a warp which connects the entire | | |
| 4:31pm | Night Head Genesis - 07 - Children’s Grudges | | | | Even though the coincidence is a bit too obvious, I still love the way Night Head Genesis introduces its cases. Every case Naoto and Naoya run into is somehow linked to its previous case. The killer woman was in the pub. The suicides all happened near the place Naoto and Naoya grew up. The culprit | | |
| 12:15am | Night Head Genesis - 05 - Awesome | | | | Awesomeness. Night Head Genesis proves that it’s capable of providing some highly disturbing, but at the same time very touching scenes. I’m loving this series more and more. Finally we have another show who’s trying to show the worst side of humans. That’s always good for a | | |
| 4:03pm | Night Head Genesis: Episodes 3 & 4 | | | | Impressions:I don’t get it. It’s as simple as that. I just don’t get it. The story is very interesting with all the killings and such, but there are things which I simply don’t understand. The one major thing that’s been getting at me is this elder Misaki guy. I was | | |
| 5:34pm | Let’s Get Organised! The RIUVA List of Ongoing Anime | | | | Following some others’ breakdown of what they are currently viewing, I realised I don’t really keep track of what I read and watch. I do a rough count to make sure everyday I get the daily recommended dose of at least 10 episodes but beyond that, there isn’t much data. While | | |
