| 10:00am | Umi Monogatari - First Impressions |  | | | I thought these first couple of episodes were great. It’s pretty much as I suspected as far as the Mahou Shoujo aspect goes but there is also an interesting, although not unique, comparison going on between seas life and “sky” life that I think will be interesting to see more of. Having these... | | |
| 9:03am | Canaan - 02 | | | | Okay, so this season I’m going to be blogging Canaan. It’s supposed to be a short series, and I’m not going to be expecting the most amazing things from it, but instead what I want from this series is the things it did well in its first episode: fun and well directed action scenes.... | | |
| 9:27pm | A Celebration of Mahou Shoujo | | | | Now as someone who has read my Twitter will know – the webpage for the Nanoha movie has recently been launched! Now for those of you grumbling that StrikerS was a pile of old codswallop, let me tell you this – it’s the original loli-riffic models ^^. The premise is that the story is set between... | | |
| 7:31am | 07-Ghost - 02 | | | | Short Synopsis: Teito ends up at a strange church. Episode Rating: 7,5/10 (Good) I may be a bit late in noticing this, but this season features a lot of shows with excellent soundtracks, doesn’t it? We have Pandora Hearts, Phantom, Shin Mazinger, Full Metal Alchemist, Cross Game, Shangri-La,... | | |
| 12:58am | Mahou Shoujo Magical Index |  | | | Index finally gets her mahou shoujo incarnation, which must come as a relief considering how sidelined she becomes in her own series (particularly in the light novels). Even here she seems to be playing second fiddle to Hyouka however More of Index and company on the Channel. Related posts:A Certain... | | |
| 4:40pm | Lyrical Nanoha 4th Series: Mahou Shoujo No More | | | | Popular eroge derived mahou shoujo anime Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha is to receive what is being billed as its “4th series”, although the new production will actually be a comic, at least to start, a change which has surprised fans. Less surprising to fans, but possibly problematic to some, is... | | |
| 9:00pm | Princess Tutu: A Review, As Best As I Can Approximate One | | | | There are probably spoilers in this “review,” because, frankly, it’s hard to avoid them with Princess Tutu. I didn’t spoil anything super-major, I don’t think, but tread carefully, those who are wary of spoilers. I remember, way back in 2002 (when Princess Tutu had started... | | |
| 9:50pm | 9th Day of Christmas: When Plaid Was Popular Again |  | | | Running for over a year (60+ episodes) and still going is the magical Shugo Chara!, which was significant to me in being the new, modern staple of the mahou shoujo genre since Cardcaptor Sakura. Here the down-to-earth Amu just tries to live her life but is suddenly thrust into a world-saving mission.... | | |
| 11:00am | Mahou Shoujo Ai 3 Total Fiasco | | | | As reported here recently, new tentacle raep eroge Mahou Shoujo Ai 3 managed to somehow ship without the actual game CGs included, almost reducing the eroge (a genre certainly dependent on visuals) down to the level of the text-based MUDS popular in the 1980s. Not unexpectedly, the reaction of otaku... | | |
| 2:48am | Mahou Shoujo Ai 3 Ships Without Pictures | | | | Just released tentacle raep eroge 魔法少女アイ参 / Mahou Shoujo Ai 3 has forgotten to include the actual game CGs in the game by the looks of things, for not a single erotic illustration appears throughout the game; all that is provided is a blank screen to aid player onanism. The issue... | | |
| 4:54am | ANN hates Nanoha | | | | I lol’d. ANN once again proves that their reviewers, well stink. I chuckled many times while reading Mr. Kimlinger’s review. Do I have a biased vantage point? Of course. Do they as well? Of course. But then again, when has an ANN reviewer actually said something worth taking seriously?... | | |
| 11:10pm | 5 Anime I’m Thankful For | | | | Obligatory Thanksgiving post of some sort is obligatory, y’all. Happy Turkey Day. 5. Uta Kata Uta Kata may not have been the best magical girl series ever, but it at least managed to break the annoying cute-hyper-girl-goes-to-school -has-a-talking-cute-thing-and- transforms-into-something-cute... | | |
