| 8:27pm | Magazine Extras: Animedia May 2011 – Surveying 100 Voice Actresses | | | | I used to get Japanese magazines like Newtype, Animage, and Animedia every once in a while – usually around the start of a new anime season but also sometimes for the extras.

| 6:54pm | Mixing drama and comedy in anime |  | | | A common element of anime – or any TV show or movie for that matter – is the mixing of comedy in an otherwise dramatic story. Usually the overall story and themes are serious, but the show also has its share of comic relief and slapsticks to break up the tension. For me, the mixing of drama... | | |

While I’m sure we can all think of things that make an anime “good,” I think the traits that make an anime “memorable” are different In this day and age where we have... | | |

| 1:38am | Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai – First Impressions (Episodes 1 and 2) | | | | This is just the beginning. I’m a year late to the party, but I’m not going to miss out on this for any longer.

| 11:14pm | The Best and Worst of 2012 Anime | | | | As 2012 finally comes to an end, I felt that this year is rather subdued for Anime. Although there were some Anime that received some rave reviews that I didn’t watch, I was still satisfied by what I have already watched. Not only that, I only dropped one show this year compared to two in 2011. Still,... | | |

| 5:25am | Fall Anime Watching Report | | | | We’re entering the final month of the fall season so it’s time for me to come of the woodwork and write a bit about what I’ve been watching (and falling behind on).

| 3:13am | Nogizaka Haruka’s Secret ~Finale~ – Episode 2 – Saved by the Bell | | | | Unfortunately, Hazuki was a bit chain-saw crazy in this episode. Make this stop! This drama is putting me to sleep… While this episode wasn’t horrible in terms of fanservice (besides the out of place hentai movie the three male classmates were watching), it definitely felt serious because Shiina... | | |
| 8:31pm | Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu - Finale - Episode 2 | | | | If the Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu story looked like it was always going to present a foregone conclusion, the first episode of its Finale OVA threatened to throw a spanner in the works - not just by being rubbish, but also by seeing Shiina confess her love to a shocked Yuuto, and right in front of Haruka... | | |
