| 10:22pm | Shikabane Hime: Aka - Episode 11 | | | | Last episode we were introduced to Shichisei, an organised group of Corpses looking to team up with the betrayer priest we saw earlier in the series with a view to destroying the Shikabane Hime (and, of course, the Kougon cult with it). Circular as these things are, we also come to the realisation that... | | |
| 5:10pm | 2008/2009 Winter Anime Menu | | | | Super delayed preview, as always! woohoo!! Better late than never, right? It’s that time of the year when the chefs get together and actually post something to bring you this comprehensive list of animes due this season. Without further ado, we bring to you this almost complete list of this sequel-filled... | | |
| 8:22pm | 2008 Summary - Part II | | | | I originally wanted to wait with posting this until Porfy no Nagai’s final episode got released, but its time is nearly running out here. The Share-uploaders have a very cruel sense of humour: out of all the episodes they could have picked to delay, it became that one. In any case, here’s... | | |
| 8:01am | Top Five Anime for Fall 2008 | | | | I’ve been reluctant to post my top 5 shows for the fall season for various reasons but with the first of season’s shows ending – it’s time. One of the reasons for the delay was that this has been a good season for anime and it made it hard to whittle the list down to just five. Another reason... | | |
| 1:40pm | 2008 Summary - Part I | | | | Well, it’s the time of the year again for the obligatory posts that look back at the highlights (and some of the lowlights) of the past year. This time, I decided to split this entry in two halves, otherwise the list would simply become too huge. I’ll post the second half tomorrow, after Porfy no... | | |
| 1:10pm | Shikabane Hime: Aka - Episode 10 | | | | It may have happened a couple of episodes ago now, but Minai's "death" (I'm not sure if you can say that someone who is already dead has died, but never mind) still reverberates around this episode. In particular, Keisei seems Hell-bent on finding out how she was disposed of despite Ouri putting her... | | |
| 3:08am | 39 New Winter Anime -- full previews: staff, cast, pic, story, trailer | | | | The winter season is usually the least exciting of the year, but there are always surprises. Last year, there were true tears and Spice & Wolf. Here are some of this year's possibilities, followed by a complete preview of almost all the new shows:-- Genji Monogatari Sennenki is a new anime based... | | |
| 3:27pm | December Summary | | | | For December, I decided to write my summary a bit earlier than usual, so that I can gather a bit more time to work on my 2008 Summary, where I list my highlights of the past year. Overall, this has been a very straightforward month without many big surprises: the series that I expected to do well did... | | |
| 7:28pm | Shikabane Hime Review - 85/100 | | | | Gainax’ latest series: Shikabane Hime. The first thing that you need to know before watching this is the following: Shikabane Hime is NOT the next Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. While it still has a lot of very stylish action, this series is much more than a simple brainless action series, and... | | |
| 6:54pm | Shikabane Hime - 13 | | | | Short Synopsis: Recap Overall Enjoyment Value: 7/10 (Enjoyable) So yeah, it’s Chrismas evening, so it was something to expect. Nevertheless, for a recap it was a good one: it came at the right time and it felt like it made sense: Keisei has just kicked the bucket, so of course Ouri is going... | | |
| 2:36am | Weekly Anime Review (Dec. 15 – Dec. 21) | | | | I’m got a few hours before I have to worry about Santa showing up so lets try getting my weekly anime review written today. I have the feeling that I won’t be able to find the time to write this tomorrow: Feast (including homemade kolbasz) + Mom’s Christmas cookies + Awesome gifts (already got... | | |
| 11:17pm | Shikabane Hime: Aka - Episode 9 | | | | After seemingly starting out as something of a pure horror/action series, Shikabane Hime: Aka has gained a surprising amount of emotional depth in recent episodes, and largely speaking this continues to some degree into episode nine.Before all that though, we do get a decent chunk of that horror/action... | | |
| 7:59pm | Shikabane Hime: AKA Wallpapers | | | | Since I could not find anywhere decently sized images, I sat down today and used the captures from the raw opening and ending along with GIMP to produce some wallpapers. Some rather reveling captures of Makina! Also our two tragic male leads, along with my favorite shikabane-hime. Here is also the opening... | | |
| 1:51am | 53RG10’s Top Ten Anime Songs {Fall ‘08} | | | | The end of the season is coming near, and that means I have had my share of anime OP and ED’s to listen to, so I once again bring you My Top Ten Anime Song for the previous anime season! Although I didn’t watch most anime this season, I paid a listen to all the OP and ED’sbut of course,... | | |
| 2:05pm | Shikabane Hime - 12 | | | | Short Synopsis: “It” has happened. I’m not going to spoil here what exactly “it” is, but you can pretty much guess. Overall Enjoyment Value: 8,5/10 (Awesome) After the previous episode, I already had some suspicion that this episode would be awesome, and indeed it did... | | |
