| 5:14pm | 10 bishoujos I don’t want to be trapped in a gym shed with | | | | Dark Stripey would probably have another title for this post but for the fiercely chivalrous/honourable tanuki race, getting trapped in a gym shed with the hottest girls in animedom (in a bloomer no less) could still pose a moral dilemma. (Hey we’re still only animals mammals!) Of course some... | | |
| 2:07am | Spring 2009 Anime Watchlist | | | | With a little less than a month left until the official start of the spring season, I felt it was time to finally compile my anime watch list. Compared to this season it looks like I will be viewing more new anime but that won’t be a problem since several series from the fall and winter seasons... | | |
| 3:30pm | T.H.A.T. Spring 2009 Anime Preview |  | | | Lets all welcome back one of the best harems ever, also led by an occasional trap. I’d like to first thank the huge wealth of comments we receive each time we do a preview. I spend many, many hours of my time putting these together, and it makes it feel very much like my time was well worth it... | | |
| 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);... | | |
| 6:59am | Spring 2009 |  | | | I’ve always wanted to do one of these full previews, but usually there are some comprehensive guides out before I even start. This is my first time, be gentle! Anyway, a lot of information comes from MAL and ANN, but in (perhaps) a nicer format. I will be completely freed from my current series... | | |
| 9:32pm | JP.Hinano Spring 2009 preview |  | | | No matter how wrong previews get (I had high hopes for Hyakko one time, and dismissed Sekirei as a boob show on the other), they can always be made fun. Sadly, they not always are. But JP/Hinano’s one is. BTW, I could not stand School Rumble either. | | |
| 4:44am | Gashapon Sucks!! | | | | Sucks yens, that is. It’s been a few days since I went to Tokyo for a very short business trip (I’m already back!), and the very first thing my officemates and I did after checking in our hotel: Find a place with lotsa gashapons, because I’ll totally FAIL AT LIFE if I never get to... | | |
| 8:14pm | School Rumble Creator’s Natsu No Arashi! To Air in April |  | | | The Natsu no Arashi! official website has recently updated with full staff and cast information, listing the production studio as Shaft (Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei), and Ryouko Shiraishi (Kemeko Deluxe’s sword-wielding Ryouko) as the female lead Arashi. The Natsu no Arashi! manga is Jin Kobayashi’s... | | |
| 12:16am | Harima, WTF!? | | | | One of the great tragedies, or at least inconveniences, in life is not being able to choose who you’re attracted to. You like who you like, but damn Harima, Tenma? How can you just not see the awesomeness of Eri? Or anyone else in the show not named Tenma for that matter. At least his blindness... | | |

| 10:26pm | Maria†Holic ep. 3 |  | | | [ Episode 3: Budding Masochism ] what’s with this crazy turn of events? Lots of inner dialogue from Kanako in this episode. She reminds me of Tenma from School Rumble a bit on how far and outrageous her delusions and thinking goes. In fact, both Kanako and Tenma have a similar scene where they... | | |
| 3:46am | The Toradora Split | | | | Toradora has been an excellent series, but when it comes to it’s high school, lovecom atmosphere, can it really hang with the sentiment of greats, particularly the notorious, youthful, and vigorous School Rumble. This is by no means a true comparison, only an evaluation on sentiment. Ryan Where... | | |
| 7:10pm | Sora wo Kakeru Shoujou: WOW! Mecha IMBA AWESOME. | | | | Looking at just the title and the first 3-4 minutes of the show, one would be misled into thinking this was just a run of the mill harem. I saw the credit line though, "PRODUCED BY SUNRISE", and I immediately deduced that this was not harem, but instead a Mai-Hime-style action ecchi scifi.... | | |
