| 9:46pm | Sketchbook at Crunchyroll |  | | | John reports that Crunchyroll began showing Sketchbook (however, no DTO again: bad Crunchy, bad rights owner, no cookie!). My own experience with it wasn’t good, but I can see a few people liking it and Crunchy is probably the perfect dumping ground for low-rating anime these days. UPDATE: Damien... | | |
| 7:40pm | GA:GADC 06-08 | | | | I dropped each of Hidamari, Sketchbook, Hidamari x365, but GA: Geijutsuka Art Design Class is so engrossing that frustrated with Ayako’s slow pace I watch it raw — which, by the way, far exceeds my Japanese abilities. Usually my approach is to select a favourite in the cast, but characters... | | |
| 12:20pm | KIDDY GiRL-AND cast and airdate confirmed | | | | http://www.kiddygirl-and.com/ has been updated to confirm the air date for the first episode as the 15th of October 2009. There is also a finalised logo, which is rather like a blinged out version of the first series logo. The main staff and cast are also now confirmed along with airtimes for various... | | |

| 8:11pm | Kurogane on GA:GADC | | | | In the post titled “GA is pretty much the best show this season isn’t it?”, Kuro exhalts: A slice-of-life show that is original, funny, entertaining and informative without being boring. That’s what my impression of GA Geijutsuka Art Design has been like. It’s pretty much the best... | | |
| 7:33am | Summer 2009 Anime Impressions – Sora no Manimani | | | | I’m slowly chipping away at the pile of summer shows I still need to review and the latest is the slice-of-school-life, light comedy Sora no Manimani.I haven’t heard much chatter about this show but that’s probably to be expected since it doesn’t involve late-bloomer crazy virgins or massive... | | |
| 6:10pm | Yuri Network News - August 1, 2009 | | | | As Yuricon is about to turn 9 years old, and Okazu 7, I've been thinking about what we've accomplished so far and what there is still yet to do. In many ways we have no influence over what happens in Japan, of course. Other than perhaps buying so much Yuri that we actually become a blip on their market... | | |
| 8:22pm | 2009 Summer | | | | This is an unbelievably full season where I feel like watching a whole bunch of shows. This is, of course, impossible. That said, I’m in denial and keep an official list that is far beyond my ability to consume. Charger Girl alias Juuden-chan: This is a deeply conflicted show that uses the formula... | | |
| 7:53am | GA:GADC begins | | | | Right off the bat, I’m going to disagree with the esteemed Aroduc about GA: Geijutsuka Art Design Class. He proclaimed: If you were expecting this to be some kind of slice of life show similar to Sketchbook or Hidamari, you’re out of luck. It’s sort of like the hyperactive and ADD child of... | | |
| 10:51am | Summer 2009 Season Impressions | | | | I’ve had this post sitting around in the drafts for quite some time now and I apologize for it being as late as it is. Work and EVE Online have wasted most of my time and energy and this will hardly change for a month or two. I will be brief with this because I feel pretty much exhausted at the... | | |

| 8:39pm | GA - Geijutsuka Art Design Class - Episode 1 | | | | Given the fact that anime is well, animated it's hardly surprising that there are plenty of series out there that base themselves around the world of art students in some shape or form, and it's even less surprising that many of these series take the slice of life comedy route to boot - Hidamari Sketch... | | |
| 11:56pm | GA Art Design Class #01 — Attention Deficit Disorder | | | | Suffer from it? Nah, I enjoy it. New Season Disclaimer: I try to watch at least the first episode of every new show in a season. However, do not expect anything I say to be fair or balanced. I value my own entertainment above all else and there are some genres or methods of presentation that I just... | | |
