| 5:01am | Eminent Off-Topic List | | | | Originally I was going to write a list, but I got too TL;DR with the first item so the rest will not come, at least for now. It’s hard enough for me to work myself to talk about off-topic things as is I just got the Echo of War Legendary edition in the mail the other day. Finally got through... | | |

| 6:12am | Series with Horrible Ending |  | | | We've talked about the worst anime but how about the ones which start out good and then turn to poo? The ones that immediately spring to mind for me are Macross Zero and Top Wo Nerae2 - both started off great and then turned into a steaming pile of baboon droppings towards the end. Replaced poo image... | | |
| 6:10am | October Summary | | | | Okay, so since this list already is huge for this month, I decided to omit the OVAs in this list, along with series that have already finished and belong to the previous season, like Chi’s Sweet Home and Wagaya no Oinarisama, in an attempt to keep this list a bit overviewable (although I do want... | | |
| 11:03am | Understanding Star Wars through Anime | | | | I finally got to see the new Clone Wars computer animated film, which just opened here. One of the minor agonies of being a Star Wars fan in Japan is having to wait an extra long time for films to open, because George Lucas likes Japan and always wants to personally be here for any of his film releases.... | | |
| 4:40am | Is the death knell for scanlations and fansubs approaching?? | | | | Of late there have been a large number of C&D (Cease & Desist) letters being sent to various groups in both the fansub and scanlation scene. Gonzo especially have been targeting groups that are doing their series. All but one group complied with the notice, one however stated they would keep... | | |
| 5:01pm | ‘Linebarrels’ Goes English | | | | It’s probably safe to guess that Gonzo’s new Linebarrels of Iron anime project– announced ages ago, so don’t worry if you don’t recognize the name –will be offered up in English in short order, judging by the official website, which has a remarkably complete English-language... | | |
| 4:43pm | Glass no Kantai Review - 75/100 | | | | I’m surprised that it’s taken me this long to realize, but a common theme of a Gonzo-series seems to be subtle jabs towards aristocracy. The best example of this is Trinity Blood: in that series, the Vatican is an important party, and yet the Pope is a shy and incapable 12-year old boy... | | |
