| 5:05am | Shikabane Hime: Aka ep. 10 |  | | | [ Episode 10: Stars to the Earth ] Oh my. Hokuto is a cutie! So with this episode the major antagonists are introduced and it is revealed that they also are responsible for Makina’s death (and her family’s). They seem like a rather powerful bunch though the strongest of them doesn’t... | | |
| 4:45am | Shikabane Hime: Aka 04 |  | | | Summary: Idol Osaki Kun is (ironically) dropping her new album Life, and getting ready for a concert. She was sick for a while, but now she’s back as a shikabane. It’s cool, though, cause the mafia is willing to kiss up to her for power. Moreover, the mysterious evil guy from last time... | | |
| 3:45am | Shikabane Hime: Aka ep. 9 |  | | | [ Episode 9: Make my chest flutter ] What thewhere did she come from? This was a pretty quiet episode and also a very weird one. I say weird because one of the recurring characters was a female that fell for Makina because she saw her killing a Corpse. Yeah, that’spretty odd if you ask me.... | | |
| 11:04pm | Shikabane Hime: Aka - Episode 12 | | | | The last episode of Shikabane Hime: Aka left Keisei and Makina in a rather precarious position, with Ouri used as a "tool" to kill the former, allowing him to simply wander in and stab Keisei without any trouble.Thankfully, this Contracted Priest is made of sterner stuff as well as being as prepared... | | |
| 11:15pm | Anime Inbou Awards 2008, pt. 1 ~ genre |  | | | Every year, fresh from the Land of the Rising Sun, an overflow of anime in all directions surges out, and we, as technophiles, catch those torrents. In the year of 2008, there was quite many hits and misses. There’s no in-betweens, no so-sos, no kindas, sortas, or littles. Well maybe but I’d... | | |
| 3:23am | My Random Snapshot of AnimeNano | | | | I used to check AnimeNano very frequently, but not so much recently. In the meantime all kinds of new blogs and controversies have popped up that I know nothing about. Anyway, what I thought I’d do is click on AnimeNano and see whats there on right now. And then I’ll, like, write about... | | |
| 8:38am | 2008: Year in Review |  | | | 2008 was a interesting year for anime, as there were sequels to previous seasons of many series this year, along with new orginal shows, and manga adapted shows also. I thought that as a whole, anime in 2008 offered something for everyone. Best Male Lead: Lelouch Lamperouge (Code Geass R 2) Runner... | | |
| 7:00pm | Shikabane Hime: Aka ep. 8 |  | | | [ Episode 8: Tranquility ] What an oddly titled episode. Wow. I can honestly say I didn’t see what happened in this episode coming at all. Isaki got snuffed out by the punks he roughed up in the previous episode which in turn caused Minai go from a Shikabane Hime to just a normal Shikabane.... | | |
| 8:14am | Winter Season 09 | | | | We’re finally at 2009! The new series that will air look very promising with shows such as Shikabane Hime Kuro and Birdy the Mighty Decode 02. Shikabane has already aired and is still in the process of subbing, so I’ll wait for that to start off the new season. I’ll have a more detailed... | | |
| 7:05am | Shikabane Hime: Aka ep. 7 |  | | | [ Episode 7: The False Soul of Language ] Makina kicks ass even with ONE arm. This was yet another great episode. If there’s one thing Shikabane Hime excels in it is definitely action. This episode re-introduces Minai and Isaki who have taken over the duties of Makina and Keisei since they’re... | | |
| 6:00am | Shikabane Hime: Aka ep. 6 |  | | | [ Episode 6: The End of the Rampage ] Dual Shikabane Hime Beam! Best episode yet! Also, best fight yet! Makina really had a tough time with that Corpse-car and even lost an arm to it. Thanks to Keishi though, she was able to finish it off. The best stuff though was when everyone confronted Akasha.... | | |
| 5:20am | Shikabane Hime: Aka ep. 5 |  | | | [ Episode 5: Betrayer Priest ] Er, shouldn’t that be Traitor Priest? A corpse-car/van/SUV? Haha, that’s hilarious and yet terrifying. The new Shikabane Hime is pretty interesting though I don’t understand her reasoning for luring Oori into that car as yet. Does she already know... | | |
| 3:55am | Shikabane Hime: Aka ep. 4 |  | | | [ Episode 4: The Cruel Hymn ] Talk about singing your heart out. This episode’s Shikabane was a former idol by the name of Osaki Kun. Of course, her will that kept her alive was that of wanting to sing. Her song was both beautiful and sad once you get a better understanding of the lyrics and... | | |
