| 8:43pm | Otaku Camp 2008 - Denkare - Upcoming Summer anime - KyoAni? | | | | This time around I’m contemplating otaku camping outside of our basements, searching for the next best eroge music production group, looking over the list of Summer 2008 anime, and wondering whether KyoAni has a special place inside the hearts of anime bloggers. Folks, for once I have an interesting... | | |
| 2:21am | what i was forced to watch this week #23: chrono crusade |  | | | If there’s one thing that always makes me scratch my head, it’s the choices that Gonzo makes when adapting a manga into anime. Obviously, there’s just completely idiotic tranwrecks like Rosario + Vampire where they just turned it into a fanservice fest or how just about the only thing... | | |
| 10:17pm | soul eater is the reverse rosario + vampire |  | | | So you know how every shot of Rosario + Vampire is framed in a way so that you can see panties. Or should I say, the skirts are so short that it doesn’t matter how the camera is angled. You’ll still see panties. Even if it was an overhead view. Meanwhile, the manga has the occasional... | | |
| 5:00am | Interview 08: Read Or Daijoubu |  | | | Er, I guess we had to take 3 months off after that last Tripeman-filled interview, but this month we’re back and chatting with the supremely gifted DS of Daijoubu. While many of you may know him for his dango-filled artwork, there is much more to the man. Yes, behind all the funny comics lies... | | |
| 3:08am | A Librarian’s Lament: Watching Anime, Thinking Critically | | | | I can’t remember if I’ve used this image before or not, so if I have, here it is again! Partially inspired by the discussion on this post and partially inspired by being really bored at work and thinking back to a conversation with a coworker whom I explained the literary/artistic value... | | |
| 5:30pm | Rosario + Vampire 8 | | | | She said teach her! As we begin, Tsukune is getting harassed by his teacher for not being up on his studies. The students make fun of his forgetfulness as well. The teacher then walks up to Tsukune saying if he doesn't work on... | | |
| 2:09pm | Kanokon - First Impressions |  | | | This was certainly….interesting. It pretty much turned out the way I thought it would, being full of ecchi moments and rather slapstick comedy. However I didn’t think that it would be THAT ecchi. Still, while this show doesn’t look like it will achieve greatness and become a wonderful series I... | | |
| 1:23pm | Gakuen + Shoujo = Wheeeee! |  | | | There are so many gakuen (school life) + shoujo (girls) animes this season, many of which are adapted from very famous and/or popular manga. Which would you – the shoujo anime lover – choose, I wonder? Here, I’ve gathered three popular shoujo + gakuen animes this season and made a comparison... | | |
| 9:12am | Some thoughts on a couple of the new season shows(Warning NSFW images) | | | | So, a new season has started with a lot of new series starting. Some are second seasons for earlier shows while some are completely new. I´ll try to write down what I think of three of the shows that I waited to start airing. They are To Love Ru, Kanokon and Code Geass R2. We´ll start with To Love... | | |

| 11:21pm | Monday Premieres: BL, Vampires & Grim Reapers |  | | | Monochrome Factor - I didn’t know anything about this show going in, and coming out all I could think of is “Yaranaika?” LOL is this a BL anime?? I’m googling everywhere and nowhere does it list it as BL, but it’s hard to think of this as anything but gay when some gay... | | |
| 4:24pm | Kanokon, at a glance | | | | Nyan nyan, nyan nyan, ni hao nyan When I initially wrote this opening paragraph I filled it to the brim with praise for Kanokon, framing it as a lighthearted ecchi series with school comedy elements and the potential for an engaging plot by putting its fantasy undertones to use. But then, crap, I remembered... | | |
