| 3:05am | Musings; moving on...? | | | | For the first time ever today I decided to open up a blog on that most popular of clients, WordPress, and I have to say I'm impressed. Although I'd need to get hosting to do anything in the way of customisation, Word Press is at least as simple as blogger, and makes even more sense. Pages | | |
| 4:13pm | Shinigami no Ballad - 03 |  | | | Summary:Momo tells Daniel that there's no such thing as coincidence because she thinks that the people a main character meets are there to guide, just like in a role-playing game. | | |
| 8:08pm | Shinigami no Ballad ep.3 | | | | This episode made me realise that despite its title, Shinigami no Ballad seems to focus more on love rather than death. The type of love in question differs from one episode to another. But in general, the death in this series is simply used to highlight the love that a character has for another | | |
| 5:27am | Shinigami no Ballad - Episode 2 Brief Impressions | | | | A pretty dark episode overall, despite the lack of a death at the end. Momo seems to be further fleshed out here, merely because she is given more screentime. Momo's role in this episode seems to be warning the dead of their impending doom and consoling those left behind later, as well as the | | |
| 10:01am | Shinigami no Ballad eps. #02 | | | | “Crying again? Geez Momo, you’re such a crybaby”“Be quiet”“You keep appearing in front of people who are not scheduled to die!” N ever thought I’ll be doing yet another review of this anime. Alas, getting your hard drive to suffer | | |
| 12:42pm | Shinigami no Ballad 2 | | | | Apologies for the delay -- trying to do too many things at once here (okay, so maybe I'm playing games too much). Anyways, this time we're introduced to Mitsuki, a 3rd year middle schooler who one night floats in the school pool as he and his sister often did. There, Momo show up along | | |
| 12:59pm | Shinigami no Ballad - 02 |  | | | Summary:Asano Mitsuki is floating in the school pool thinking about how his sister had compared a pool at night to swimming in space. | | |
| 2:18am | It's Spring Break!.... Spring Watch List... | | | | 7:09PM: And of course I don't get home until after 6 thank you very much. Anyways, more stuff came in today and yesterday so here it is:Here we have Children of Mana for the Nintendo DS. I haven't played it too much so I can't say a whole lot about it The art is beautiful, | | |
| 2:00am | Mai Otome ep.22 preview | | | | Alright, this was really really good stuff. And it underlines that all the little conveniences, plotholes and a lackluster angst arc of the presumed main character notwithstanding, Otome can change gears and revert to greatness in no time, because the overall foundation of the story is still quite | | |
| 4:40pm | Shinigami no Ballad ep.2 | | | | Woot! This is a pleasant surprise. Two episodes in and already the series take on an entirely different approach to the story. I personally am quite relieved to see this and believe that this show won't end up like the early episodes of Jigoku Shoujo, where each episode is similar to the | | |
| 1:15pm | In the Wake of the Week - RePure | | | | It's been a while since I did a post with just random anime thoughts, so might as well post one now:* Fate/Stay Night (eps 8 and 9) - Episode 8 was possibly my favorite so far, I'm kind of surprised Sakura had the guts to stand up to Rin. As a tsundere fan, Rin is definitely my favorite | | |
| 5:47am | Shinigami no Ballad - Episode 1 Brief Impressions | | | | I've been looking forward to this show since the start of HanTsuki, and it doesn't disapoint with the first episode. Like Jigoku Shoujo, death is the theme of the show, yet it is dealt with in such a different manner that the shows are hard to compare. Visually, Shinigami no Ballad looks | | |
| 8:33pm | Shinigami no Ballad - Episode 1 | | | | Did you ever wonder what happens if you mix up Final Destination and Ichigo Mashimaro? There you go with Shinigami no Ballad!It's a calm show with normal/cute characters, a decent animation (there were some nice rain shots) that creates no emotions. That's why I'm not going to watch | | |
| 7:29am | Shinigami no Ballad #01 | | | | “You really are a crybaby, Momo”“Those who died cannot cry anymore. So I cry for them” So I was browsing around the Internet, looking to download xxxHOLIC for review. Alas, it has been reserved by Raven (¬_¬), so I was desperately running around trying to | | |
