I find it unsurprising that Lucky Star was nominated most, with a total of 7 nominations. Darker than BLACK followed with 5, while Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei and Death Note both had 3 each.

This time, it’s a question about which show you think has the best character designs (visually). My personal favourite would be sola, but only because of Matsuri.

The OVA has been out for a while already, and the sub for it has been as well. Truth is I’ve already watched this quite a while ago as well but it wasn’t... | | |
| 6:35pm | Remedial Anime Awards, January 2008 | | | | I realised that I have not made a single post in this blog throughout January. Minus the resolutions for 2008 post which was meant for the whole year round, I had written nothing else regarding animes. Well, I could come up with some excuse, but now that I think of it, the excuse that I'm probably... | | |
| 5:20am | sola manga licensed for North American release |  | | | I wrote last month about how Broccoli Books was seeking to acquire the publishing rights to the sola manga. Well I said incorrectly that the company licensed it.

| 2:58am | Happy Endings | | | | It was fitting that I rewatched Kita e - Diamond Dust Drops this week, living in a frozen wasteland and all. When I woke up this morning, my outdoor thermometer was registering -8 degrees F. For those of you living in the civilized world, that’s -22 degrees C. I saw something when I stepped... | | |
| 4:08am | Series Review: Myself;Yourself | | | | "What are you saying? In love, age and gender does not matter."Myself;Yourself is a strange show. It's kind of like a do-it-yourself visual-novel show would look like.You know, the kind you see in magazines and TV ads. Quick to set up, easy to assemble, and cheaper than a name-brand. Certainly, a lot... | | |
| 11:13am | sola color V | | | | Well it has certainly been a long time since this arrived. I’m rather saddened that it has taken me this long to actually getting around to open the plastic covering and have a look, and not to mention scan them. But at last here it is, sola color V!

| 4:11am | eh about ef? (Episodes 4-7) | | | | By all means, I should be entirely smitted with ef, like most of the otakusphere (to steal a term) seems to be.It's got what seems to be it all: a unique animation style, characters ripped straight from a storyline I dreamed up, parallel plots that look to tie together smoothly, and personalities that... | | |
| 6:00pm | The world is not beautiful, therefore it is; introducing Kino’s Journey | | | | I quite like subversive fairy-tales; the suggestion that there is something ugly and unknown shifting beneath a veneer of superficial beauty. This is precisely why I so admired Princess Tutu, because lurking behind that familiar style of magical girl characterization was insecurity and doubt; supposed... | | |
