| 7:40am | Anime Instrumentality Turns 5 – Looking Back On Our Brief History | | | | Anime Instrumentality has rocked and rolled, waltzed and jigged (the latter, possibly in a trance) its way through 5 years of existence. In that time, it has accumulated over 200 anime album reviews, over 10 concert reports, and just very recently, 1 million page views. With all of these accomplishments... | | |
| 11:01pm | Spring 2013 Anime Season Preview | | | | This is the 19th season preview listed on this website’s archives. 20 if I feel like counting the one I did for summer 2008 back on an old livejournal blog where I only covered about 3 upcoming anime and I predicted that Nogizaka Haruka’s Secret would be the next Haruhi Suzumiya. So I’ve... | | |
| 7:10pm | Interrogated By Another Blogger | | | | and thankfully it’s by Webkid94 over at Oasis Crossing and not the Recording Industry Association of Japan or something. Could you imagine?

| 8:56pm | Unfunny Internet Meme Comics #9-13 | | | | For the uninitiated, Top Trumps was a card game popular in my youth. Basically, the game is played with a set of cards that contain statistics related to a particular subject (Fast cars, or Marvel Heroes and/or Villains were popular when I was young). The idea is that the deck of cards is dealt between... | | |
| 6:21am | Ano Hi Mita Hana no Namae o Boku-Tachi wa Mada Shiranai. - 05 | | | | That was yet again amazing. Again, every character played a major role in this episode and nobody was left out. This series really never fails to pull at my heartstrings. I love how the creators actually made Yukiatsu work as a character despite his cross-dressing antics. The way he composes himself... | | |
| 9:43am | Gosick - 06 | | | | Best episode yet! Seriously, this episode was significantly better than anything we’ve seen of Gosick so far. The biggest reason was that second half, which finally took an in-depth look into Victorique’s character and her past. It’s an interesting backstory and it was well told,... | | |
| 11:34pm | Spring Season Preview | | | | Ohoho, we’re in for a treat in the upcoming season. There are 45 series in total, and a ton of those are promising to be really interesting. Sure, there is a lot of crap, but there are also plenty of powerhouse directors and writers to make up for it. that’s the great thing of getting a... | | |

| 4:24pm | Winter Season Preview | | | | The upcoming Winter Season will suck? Hell no! In fact, I see no way in which it isn’t going to be able to be better than the Winter of 2010. I’m actually very much looking forward to it. I’d like to call it the season of mysteries: there are a ton of series that really can go anywhere,... | | |
| 2:19pm | OVA Impressions: Yozakura Quartet - 01 | | | | Please, someone. Confirm that Yozakura Quartet’s OVA is going to be a long one. I mean, seriously: this is way too awesome to just end in three episodes. This was meant to be the real adaptation, faithful to the manga. There is no way that the manga is this small, right? I mean, that Supernatural... | | |
| 9:24pm | Autumn Season Preview | | | | The amount of series that will première in the upcoming Autumn season? 29. That’s about the same as the previous Spring Season. While I’d love to say that anime is getting better again, this season is looking pretty bleak, with only three series that do not focus on kids or teenagers and... | | |
| 7:09am | Top 25 Favourite EDs | | | | Compiling this list was annoying. At least with OPs, series take a lot more liberties to try something interesting. Most of the EDs however, just look and sound way too much like each other. There were a ton of the same ballads with dull images in front of them, but by far the worst were those moe show... | | |
