| 2:05pm | ｢Saimoe ‘09｣ “Group F – Day 3″ Block ~ 1st Round Results | | | | Winners: Nodoka, Taiga, Azusa, and Ai. So just when you think K-ON was having a bad Saimoe year, two characters from the series advance on the same day. Unfortunately Index had to lose in the first round. Maybe if all those votes for Kaori went to her instead nevermind. Azunyan is just as nice. And... | | |

| 12:17am | Yahagi Sayuri -- Indispensable | | | | When Yahagi Sayuri 矢作紗友里 debuted at 19 as Karin, she knocked me out with her liquid, well-inflected voice.Now she has been a professional seiyuu for four years. She still has the strong, supple, quite high voice she started with, but the burbling liquidness has been toned down. She has developed... | | |
| 4:44am | Rosario + Vampire Season 1 – Surprisingly okay towards the end | | | | FAP FAP FAP Okay at its base Rosario + Vampire is a stupid fanservice show but if you look past all the fanservice Well, you still get a pretty bad show. But I’d say it has some good (for this show) last few episodes. What I would do is read a summary, and then start from episode 9 becuase I... | | |

| 7:30am | Spring 2009 Anime Preview and Watchlist | | | | Just within the last few days, winter’s frigid fingers have finally loosened their grip around where I live. We had been experiencing high temperatures well below freezing and that’s not conducive to getting in the spring mindset. Yesterday we got into the 50’s and today our high was 65˚F (18˚C);... | | |
| 1:41am | Rosario + Vampire DVD: Onsen Nipple Failure |  | | | The usual DVD marketing from Gonzo sees the latest Rosario + Vampire Capu2 DVD receive the removal of gratuitous censorship. However, fans have disappointedly likened the anticipated nipples added to unskilled nude filters, as they are not very convincingly illustrated. They certainly do seem rather... | | |
| 7:52pm | Tempting Figures I Shouldn’t Buy | | | | For some reason or another the other day I found myself doing the internet equivalent of window-shopping and once again was entranced by the allure of PVC beauties. I failed to mention it in my Goals for ‘09 post but I want to reduce the amount I spend on otaku goods. However any such prospect... | | |
