| 6:45am | Anime Inbou Awards 2008, pt. 3 ~ music |  | | | Third round and this time, it’s all about the music. You can have anime with voices, but once you cue the music at the right time, you get some pretty amazing results. Kudos to all the composers and arrangers, and the vocalists for all their hard work! Firstly, we’d like to get our Top... | | |
| 5:35pm | 2008 Was So-So | | | | In terms of the anime year, the anime released for 2008 was subpar. It does not compare to the ever excellent 2007, simply one year ago! As per usual, Anime-Source is planning the end of the year survey. I’ve been brainstorming on what I might select, but from all possible titles, he “best”... | | |

| 3:04am | Impz’s winter first impressions - Akikan, the manservice show! |  | | | Ok, I feel that my eyes are actually hurting. Should I be happy that the graphics were not that good? Ok, unless I suddenly watched an early release first episode that was created by fans (I hardly think that fans are able to make it so fricking queer), I THOUGHT THIS IS supposed to be a straight fanservice... | | |
| 1:37pm | Skip Beat Ep 6 - KYOKO-SAMA vs Ruriko! CAT FIGHT = Awesome! |  | | | I have been waiting for this very moment for the awesomeness of Kyoko-sama to fully manifest. Ruriko is definitely going to pay for all the hideous things she did to the delicate, sweet and wonderfully awesome Kyoko-sama. This episode chronicles the rise of our Cinderella, an ordinary looking girl who... | | |
| 10:05am | One Outs = Total Sports Anime Ripoff | | | | Decided to watch One Outs episode 1 last weekend since it’s been subbed, and my initial impression could be summed up as: Toa is Hiruma’s long lost twin, not to mention they exude the same aura too. I’m sure TheBigN can attest to this. So you can say that we’ve got some (Hiru)MANservice... | | |
| 12:39pm | THAT Fall First Impressions: Casshern Sins, Hyakko and Kuroshitsuji |  | | | If anime is about the “WTF moment”, I think I have reached the stage of Nirvana. I just watched some of the new offerings of the fall 2008 season, and one anime struck out as one of the strangest anime ever. Instead of following traditional convention to pick a series based on prior interest,... | | |
| 2:13am | DISSIDIA FINAL FANTASY X | | | | Check out this gameplay footage from Final Fantasy X for DISSIDIA they have even put in the overdrive gameplay used by Tidus in the original FFX. Can’t wait to play this on my PSP!! YouTube video here | | |

| 7:27am | Macross Frontier: Wounded Lions | | | | The wait has been long but all that seems like a fading past for Macross Frontier is now shifting into overdrive gear, pumping the drama in huge dosage for us viewers.Like the episode name suggested and has proven, Sheryl claims centre stage as she appears to have recovered from her recent fall. But... | | |
| 6:46am | C74 - Magical Battle Arena Redux Ver. Ruru, Noyel, and Naga | | | | No clue why some people are having issues installing the patch. Everything went completely dandy for me. If you’re curious about the move in the video above where Ruru just sort of cowers, it’s a melee counter, but she just looks sad when nobody attacks her. After playing through Ruru’s... | | |
| 2:37pm | Pangya Japan: Season 4 Next Thursday! |  | | | While A18 is still fumbling with S3 (and still missing a shitload of items from S2), Pangya JP is releasing Season 4 on August 21st! Besides Lucia of course there’s a lot of exciting updates to come. So here’s what’s coming: 1) Lucia - new character, 17 year old pop idol, incredibly... | | |
| 7:45pm | Sekirei #07 — Two More Down… 104 to Go | | | | Well, I suppose if a sekirei team can win, then it’s only 100. Impressions: I don’t know after all the Tsukiumi amusement last episode, this one just seemed a bit lackluster. Things are still inexorably marching forward at least, with no real clear destination in sight. I should probably... | | |
