| 5:28pm | Last night, I suddenly thought it… | | | | Last night, I suddenly thought it would be a great idea to create a secondary blog for non anime and manga-related material, completely ignoring the fact that a) I may not even have the time or stamina to maintain it and b) anything posted to this blog will probably be pointless ramblings devoid of | | |
| 11:56pm | Thursday Notes (October 5)... | | | | Feeling a lot better now, so I'm slowly getting back into the usual routine here and think I can get back started with the blogging again tonight :) I'm somehow going to do a wrap-up of all the stuff that ended last week, maybe separate entries, maybe one big entry just to catch up. As for the new | | |
| 6:36pm | I Felt Like Ranking Studios, So I Did | | | | Having come through a rather extensive completed series marathon, thanks to the seasonal transition anime lull, I totally had the feel that anime studios are not equal. So here’s a quick rating of the top five, ranked according to the Riuva studo point system - +5 for an awesome anime, +3 for | | |
| 1:09am | Otogi Juushi Akazukin - 14 - Gretel | | | | This was such a cute episode. And a great one as well. It’s a great one this time, and it really reveals some very interesting things about her past with Hansel. She loves her brother because when they were even smaller than they are now, they used to be very close to each other. Hansel was | | |
| 1:22pm | September Summary | | | | Why did so little anime change their OP or ED after their first half ended? For as far as I know, only xxxHolic showed us a new ED after episode 14. I like it when a series does this. It symbolizes change. Anyway, now that that random comment is out of the way, here’s once again the summary of... | | |
| 1:00am | Otogi Juushi Akazukin - 13 - Fandavalians have “interesting” rituals | | | | Finally we have the Akazukin-episode, though she didn’t get any character development like Shirayuki, Ibara and Ringo did when they got their own episode. This episode was rather meant to show what would happen to Ibara and Shirayuki if Akazukin was absent from the three musketeers. Well, | | |
| 11:40am | Wednesday Notes (September 20)... | | | | Been a while since I've posted something, hasn't it? Sorry 'bout that (^^;;) I haven't exactly been feeling all that great over the past week -- not able to sleep well, not able to eat a lot, so on, so on, and it's taking a while for me to get over it, but hopefully I'll be feeling better | | |
| 10:41am | Nipponsei Weekly Review: Diebuster OST, ARIA Vocal Tracks |  | | | This week’s installment of my look at anime CD’s released that interest me. My reviews shouldn’t be taken all that seriously as I am not a music major. If you like the anime you will probably like it’s music. Let’s get started.I think it’s pretty noticeable that | | |
| 7:07pm | Otogi Juushi Akazukin - 11 - Baru. In a dress!? | | | | Ah, okay. Akazukin and the others weren’t heading for Cendrillion’s castle, they were heading for the magic school, in the hope that their teachers might be able to find out her location. This episode was a Ringo-episode, though almost every character played some kind of role in it. | | |
| 7:55pm | Otogi Juushi Akazukin - 10 - An Ibara Episode | | | | Lots of talking this episode, which made the overall story rather hard to understand. It’s an Ibara-episode. Souta and the others end spending the night in a village, in which a special flower grows. It’s called the Sennen Tsubomi. They meet up with a girl, who’s responsible for | | |
| 1:25pm | August Summary | | | | Even though setting up a post like this one takes a while, I love making these kinds of statistics. ^^; + Top 10 Anime With 1 Episode Released + I’m still hoping for Gintama, Yoshinaga-chi no Gargoyle, Hime-sama Goyoujin and all of the other neglected shows to get subbed. In any case, I think... | | |
| 4:28am | Otogi Juushi Akazukin 9 | | | | Staff: 脚本:広"光毅 "出:大西景介 作"監督:飯飼一 Walking along with a Juusi~, juusi~ and a zukkyun~, zukkyun~, Akazukin and the others have no idea where the heck they're going. Luckily for them, a boy named Hans comes by on a cart and gives them a ride | | |
| 10:27pm | Otogi Juushi Akazukin - 09 - Shirayuki!! Cute!!! | | | | A Shirayuki-episode. And a great one. The group runs into a boy, who offers them a free ride. He also seems to be running a restaurant, so the group decides to eat there. In the end, it turns out that they don’t have any money. Ringo then asks the boy (Hansu) to let them work for their meal. | | |
| 11:00am | Otogi Juushi Akazukin 8 | | | | Souta, Ringo, Akazukin, Shirayuki, Ibara, and Val-sama slide on the Otogi Road (read: a ridiculously long slide) into Fandavale. However, the road starts disappearing and soon they fall off, but thankfully Shirayuki provides for a somewhat soft landing with some snow. Meanwhile, at the castle, | | |
