| 12:00am | Takarazuka Documentary: Dream Girls | | | | Many thanks to today's review sponsor, Bruce. The copy of this DVD that I watched is his, on loan to me until he finds space in his new place for it. :-) Thanks Bruce!Dream Girls is a 1994 documentary about the Takarazuka Musical Revue.

| 12:00am | Ten Favorite Voice Actresses | | | | On the brink of a new season, here is a look at the new shows, concentrating on staff and cast. The shows I'm looking forward to? As usual, it's hard to tell which shows will work for me, but I'm looking at Code E, Doujin Work, Kenko Zenrakei Suieibu Umisho, Moetan, Mononoke, Sayonara Zetsubo Sensei,... | | |
| 12:00am | The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya - 01 | | | | This could well be on it's way on topping my worst anime of 2006 and it's not even halfway through the year yet! Take a reject from "Key-rape" Kagihime, throw in some MOE (lots of it) and two loser ero-guys who are making a pr0n RPG hentai. A home grown family movie this ain't - it's an otaku's wet dream... | | |
| 12:00am | Touka Gettan -- seiyuu pics and info | | | | On the brink of a new season, here is a look at the new shows, concentrating on staff and cast. The shows I'm looking forward to?

| 12:00am | Wallflower becomes an anime | | | | Del Ray announced at Anime Next that The Wallflower (aka Perfect Girl Revolution) is being turned into an anime. The manga is very good, and if it gets the same awesome production that Ouran received then I think it will be a great anime. The art style is a little weird, but it'll probably be modified... | | |
| 12:00am | Winter 2007 Anime Season: Red Garden | | | | Like Code Geass, Red Garden is a series that is more properly attributed to the Autumn 2006 anime season, but I've been too lazy busy to review it until now.The plot is still a bit obscure, and I am not sure how much will be or can be explained. But in short, four high school girls learn that they | | |
| 12:00am | Winter 2007 Anime Season: Three Dribbles of Yuri | | | | Along with all the Yuri-friendly OVAs like Maria-sama ga Miteru, Ichigo Mashimaro, Mai Otome Zwei and the "keeping our fingers crossed" Ikkitousen: Dragon Destiny, and the "yuri, but who cares" (lol) Kyoushirou to Towa no Sora, and the "not really yuri, but with a lesbian character" (one | | |
| 12:00am | Yuri Manga: Iono-sama Fanatics (English) | | | | Today's review was brought to you by Infinity Studios, the publisher of the english-language adaptation of Iono-sama Fanatics.I reviewed this book originally on November 11, 2005. For a discussion of the plot and characters, please read my original review. For today's review I am going to focus | | |
| 12:00am | Yuri Manga: Red Garden, Volume 1 | | | | I liked the anime for Red Garden enough that, when a manga became available I jumped right on it. The combination of likeable characters, solid horror/action plot and Yuri worked just fine for me. The fact that the one actual lesbian character wasn't diminished in any way, did not die or become | | |
| 12:00am | Yuri Manga: Yuri Hime, Volume 8 Part 2 | | | | The second half of Yuri Hime "S" is as variable as the first. What was good was really pretty good, and what was bad was exhaustingly tedious."Interface" by Kurogane Kenn (Shoujo Sect) was unexpected in every conceivable way. The story begins with a girl walking in on another girl drawing a stick figure... | | |
| 12:00am | Red Garden | | | | Just when you thought Ed and Al had the homunculus problem under wraps, here comes another. And just when you thought the similarities end here, in comes the Alchemical Warriors.That’s where the plagiarism ends, mostly. The homunculi in Busou Renkin are born from embedding strange man-created embryos... | | |
