| 7:02pm | Fall 2005 titles | | | | After seeing some trailers, I’m indecently excited about seeing: Jigoku Shoujo - Looks awesome. I’ve been hearing some majorly good buzz about this show. I also like gothy type anime as well, so hopefully this’ll be good. Paradise Kiss - adapated from the Yazawa Ai manga. Loved the... | | |
| 12:00am | April Anime Preview - pics/staff/cast | | | | I'm not as high on this season as fans of shounen shows and mecha are, but I'm sure there will be some pleasant surprises. There always are.

| 12:00am | Fall 2006: the first week of new shows | | | | Somehow I've managed to see the first episodes of almost all the new anime. Here's what I thought of them.

| 12:00am | Nodame Cantabile - Characters and Voices (w/photos) | | | | On the basis of one episode, Nodame Cantabile is clearly the best show of the new season, and a worthy successor to Honey & Clover in the Thursday Night Noitamina time-slot on Fuji TV.It has the same director as Honey & Clover, Kasai Kenichi, and is animated by the same studio, J.C. Staff. And it is... | | |

| 12:00am | Spring Anime Calendar | | | | What a season. Fifty new shows, most of them appearing for the first time this coming week. A lot of shows are only going to get one episode to prove themselves.To keep things straight, I made a graphic calendar for myself showing when each series I might be interested in started, and adding the | | |
| 12:00am | Staring Down My Anime Queue (Misc) | | | | Too much anime, too little time. I have 18 anime from the Fall 2005-Spring 2006 season that I at least need to watch the first few episodes to see if they're worth completing. There's also the older anime that I want to see (ie, Full Moon wo Sagashite) and the series that I want to rewatch (with Fruits... | | |
