| 2:53pm | Manga Olympics for Bloggers Poll: Round 1/Part 1 | | | | ROUND 1/PART 1 POLLS ARE NOW UP. In this post, you’ll find two polls for the Shounen/Seinen category and the Shoujo/Josei category. How exciting! There are amazing posts here, with participants really putting a lot of effort and I only say this after having read them all! I apologise for the delay... | | |
| 7:02pm | The Problem With Adaptations for Fans: Devil Survivor 2 – Episode 9 | | | | I was disappointed after watching the latest episode of Devil Survivor 2. How could they simplify the battle with Alioth down to literally 5 minutes of exposition. In the game, theres a massive battle with the beast that trumps any of the boss battles up until that point. In the show, he just merely... | | |
| 11:42pm | Bookmarked: Oresama Teacher, Part II | | | | Ever had a hard time reading a series? Just hit a wall with it and had to struggle to make it past the hump? Well, this week I’ve managed to peg myself with that series. It started out so good – I don’t know what happened! This week’s review is returning to Oresama Teacher,... | | |
| 12:25am | Skip Beat! Chapter 188: My Skip Beat Rant | | | | GGGAAAAHHHH!! Just GGAAHHHH! As you all know, I love Skip Beat with all my heart, but I swear to god I just want to hurt Nakamura-sensei when she writes chapters like chapter 188. I mean, no, nothing really happened in this chapter that's-well- blog worthy. But it most definitely is rant worhy.... | | |
| 9:54pm | Skip Beat!: Opening the Locks to Kyoko's Heart | | | | It's all coming back to it- that one moment; that first scene of both the Skip Beat manga and anime: The box that God gave everyone in the world. One that brings both joy and sorrow. A box that Kyoko vowed to lock up and never look backTill now. It all began with this box, and though many of us... | | |
| 4:26am | Oh Japanese xenophobes, you cards |  | | | Rebecca Silverman reporting for ANN: There was a rude surprise after Dengeki Daisy bested Skip Beat! and Princess Jellyfish for Best Shoujo Manga when Kaze’s president announced that Americans are idiots. He had previously worked at Viz, Kaze’s American counterpart, and said that Americans... | | |
| 6:00am | Chihayafuru – 25(Final): Kana-chan’s Dream | | | | Apparently Suo has few admirers Suo has finally shown himself and so ends Chihayafuru. There isn’t much of blatant to be continued, and there is no championship parade for Mizusawa. It was a fun ride, even if the chances for another season are slim to none. Such is the state of shoujo anime that sequels... | | |
| 9:52pm | Winter Season Preview | | | | Holy crap, the next season will be big. To put it into perspective: there will be 22 new series. All non-kiddie. The only Winter season that had more than that was the winter of 2009. Yes, we’re indeed looking at the second-biggest Winter Anime Season in history. That’s not the only strange... | | |

| 11:30am | Deadman Wonderland - 12 | | | | Well, this episode did stretch the suspense of disbelief again, but I liked it. There is of course a problem with Owl mowing down a small army in an instant, only to take a minute to punch Ganta, but heck: if it’s established that the Deadmen have superhuman healing powers I guess it could have... | | |
| 8:18pm | Manga that should be adapted into anime | | | | Another random list from me — this time, listing manga that should be adapted into anime. I have lots of favorite manga, but so far, only six that I think suitable for the anime treatment. I'm one of those people who think some manga are better off remaining manga, especially shoujo ones like Skip... | | |

| 12:55am | Outlooks for Winter 2011 Anime | | | | Looking ahead towards the new season only a week away, it looks as if there won’t be quite as many series that I’ll be following in comparison to this fall. However maybe that’s a good thing considering how I almost died trying to keep up since I’m a stubborn masochist unwilling... | | |
