| 3:29pm | The Worst Manga Ever |  | | | Have you ever wondered what it would be like to participate in the Japanese delinquent world? With its immersive atmosphere, highly decompressed storytelling, and blow-by-blow action, Worst offers readers that experience.

| 7:42am | Summer 2009 Anime Preview and Watchlist | | | | This seems to happen every time, just when I’m finally feel like I’ve got used to the season’s mix of shows, a new season comes along and offers a completely different set of shows to watch.At the start of the spring season, I was unsure if there’d be as many quality titles as the past several... | | |

| 1:39pm | Seiyuu Surprises – Same Actor, Different Roles |  | | | Seiyuu, or voice actors, are one of the more recognized workers in the creation of anime, giving our beloved 2D characters the most obvious link to humanity – their voices. The names of many famous seiyuu are well known among the ranks of otaku, even more so in this decade than past years, but the... | | |
| 2:04am | Mermaid Fail, Encore passes, Dash FTW | | | | Seto no Hanayome Koji Oe wouldn’t mind a second season. I’m not so sure. I felt that, wrt the OVAs, the franchise has lost some of its charm. The reintroduction of the cast was somewhat tedious and the thing I particularly took exception to was how Gouzaburo has reverted back to Nagasumi-hatin’... | | |
| 5:28pm | Turns Out the Dark Horse of the Season is… | | | | You know how we tend to write off certain shows based on the premise or other attributes, before we even watch it? For example, 07 Ghost might be the new awesomemest show on Earth but because I think it is gay yaoi shit I won’t watch it much. Some people hate harem etc etc. A dark horse is one... | | |
| 2:55pm | Spring 2009 Anime Impressions – Natsu no Arashi | | | | The latest work by Shaft, Natsu no Arashi, seems to have incurred two strikes against it before it even aired. The first is the source material comes from the creator of School Rumble. I haven’t seen this show to judge for myself but I’ve come across a lot of anger over it’s “lame ending”... | | |
| 8:46am | The divine comedy of Hatsukoi Limited | | | | In accordance with the Shizu-sama Doctrine, I was going to check out Hatsukoi Limited anyway. But I kept putting it off for various reasons. High school romance hijinks are not exactly my cup of tea. My answer to the opening question in the opening moments of the series was a grumpy ぜんぜん！... | | |

| 3:56pm | First Hop for Hatsukoi Limited | | | | Funnily enough, the show taking up most of my attention this season is Hatsukoi Limited. I anticipated this anime for some time (about a yearI guess) so I know if it works out, I would be all over it. Still, I did not expected it to be so consuming! I guess I’m just a big o sap. Otaku flavored... | | |
| 4:57pm | Do You Guys Know Adachi Mitsuru? | | | | Judging from the otaku and normal people crowd’s responses in general, I found that not many of you actually know who Adachi Mitsuru is. At this moment, I bet you’re screaming "I KNOW I KNOW!!!", then OK you win. Cross Game is his most recent manga, and with its adaptation into... | | |
| 8:55pm | Spring 2009 Season Impressions | | | | But I am lazy. I guess I have been procratinating enough with this post so let’s get to it: Nova’s impressions on this fine season. The initial hitlist underwent a whole bunch of changes but turns out it was all for the better. Based on what I have seen so far I’m convinced that we... | | |
