| 11:43pm | His & Her Review: Special A | | | | Hmm seems like it’s been a while since the last His & Her Review doesn’t it? A few months actually. So why did it take us so long to do another his & her review? Well it’s really because Asuna & Kira are lazy hey, don’t judge. One of the 7 is missing from this... | | |
| 5:51am | S.A. Special A - Character Songs | | | | Because no anime series is complete without a collection of random character songs. Admittedly, I've had mixed feelings about all of the music in S.A. The first OP was too bubblegum pop for my tastes, and the second OP was nice (but somewhat lacking). That being said, this album was actually pretty decent.Gorgeous... | | |
| 8:49pm | S.A. Special A Ep. 24 (END) - Feel good endings for everyone! | | | | Well, it's the good end we've all been waiting for. Hikari is angry that Kei left, but she decides to go to London to bring him back. The rest of S.A. decide to come with her. Unfortunately, Hikari can't even figure out how to get to London. Enter Sui, who just wants his dear Onii-sama to return. He... | | |
| 11:18pm | Special A - 23 |  | | | So I guess they’re sorta going with an anime original ending or rather they are compressing the London arc into 2 final episodes I think. They made it seem like Aoi is this horrible beast who’s deprived everyone of their Special A and used the Takishima rich powars of domination to suspend... | | |
| 8:52pm | Special A 8: Take It From Hikari; Love Solves Everything | | | | Wakaranai The Special A take a trip to Hawaii for fun. Kei is still pretty angry about Hikari's thickheadedness, but whatever. When they touch down, Kei shuts himself into his room, Ryuu has business to attend to, and everyone else goes to participate in some American consumerism. After shopping... | | |
| 2:42am | Lost my Magic: Why I suddenly went missing from ItaKiss and the shoujo scene | | | | As you may have noticed, I’ve been on a bit of a blogging break of late, slowing the routine down to a weekly ritual chock-ful of filler. If I were more pessimistic I would chalk this up to burnout (or to Burnout, which is a fantastic visceral thrill), but really, the fact of the matter is that... | | |
| 11:57pm | Special A EP 15 vs Itazura na Kiss EP 15 | | | | Last week saw Itazura Na Kiss toss a complete shutout victory. Will Itazura get the shutout again this week or will it slip from it’s dominating performances? Rivals and Lovers // –>// –>// –> Comedy Since both shows are technically romantic comedies, we have to... | | |

We’ scrapped the weekly highlights of Itazura na Kiss in favour of a weekly battle with between it and Special A. Don’t be too upset fans of highlights & lowlights, you can still expect to see the same nonsensical,... | | |
| 1:39am | Natsume Yuujin-chou ep.02 | | | | Man, I've been too busy trying to keep up with E3 news that I couldn't even write this without being distracted every 5 minutes, trying to see if there is interesting news I should read. Also, if you've been emailing me about the past series that I covered last season, I'll try to finish them one... | | |
