(I’m looking forward to Smiley’s Precure. Apparently the Cure colours will be grey, brown, and grey-brown.)

| 12:06pm | Ao no Exorcist Review - 75/100 | | | | Shounen isn’t my favourite genre, but I have enjoyed plenty of the better series in the genre. Ao no Exorcist is a sneaky one though: at first it first seems to avoid a lot of the overused cliches that plague the genre only to fall into them anyways. What sets Ao no Exorcist apart is that... | | |
| 11:34am | Sacred Seven Review - 65/100 | | | | The biggest disappointment for me for this season is an easy one: Sacred Seven. For starters, consider that my two favourite Sunrise series of the past decade are Bakumatsu Kikansetsu Irohanihoheto and Zone of the Enders. This series had the director of the former and the main writer of the latter.... | | |
| 4:24pm | Winter Season Preview | | | | The upcoming Winter Season will suck? Hell no! In fact, I see no way in which it isn’t going to be able to be better than the Winter of 2010. I’m actually very much looking forward to it. I’d like to call it the season of mysteries: there are a ton of series that really can go anywhere,... | | |
| 4:31pm | Funimation Box sets - True bargains or a discount in quality? | | | | My latest anime DVD haul was received in a mix of joy and apprehension. Joy because I could finally chuck my crappy subs but apprehension crept in when I realised SHUFFLE! was packed onto 4 discs while Soukou no Strain - 2 DVDs. Such compressions are typical of bootlegs but unheard of in legit DVDs,... | | |
| 5:01pm | Tsundere for Tsukihime? | | | | This purchase is no coincidence. Bought 2 days after Zyl put up my ancient review of Tsukihime, I’m certain my good comrade-in-anime revived something more insidious than just a forgotten relic of the past. Flooded by memories of the bishoujos of Tsukihime (especially the meido-twins), I found... | | |
| 4:16pm | In consideration - 5 DVD boxsets from TheRightStuf | | | | Save for the Shuffle! DVD bundle, TheRightStuf 12 days of xmas sale was a rather disappointing affair for me. The only other item that mildly tempting was the DNAngel Boxset offered on the 13th day but since it was not on my to-get list, I hardened my heart against acquiring it. Then came TRS’s... | | |
| 4:50pm | Funimation adds a crap load of new videos online | | | | Basically every series of note that they hold has a page and at least trailers up. There also have the first two subbed episodes online for Gunslinger Girl IL Teatrino and Romeo X Juliet, the first six subbed episodes for Shigurui, and the entire Soukou no Strain series subbed. Here are the list of... | | |
| 4:26pm | 5 Fall series to catch - Stripey’s pick | | | | It looks like I wouldn’t be reaching for that Spring/Summer stash soon given the promising Fall series I’ve previewed so far. Here’s 5 series I’d be catching in ascending order of love. 5. Kannagi (Seen 1 ep) - Mahou ~miko~ shoujo FTW! While the premise is not all that compelling... | | |
| 10:19pm | Condensed Review: Soukou no Strain | | | | Blonde hair and an unusually fast red war machine? Pros and Cons + a hint of Gunbuster in the DNA ++ Frances Hodgson Burnett is spinning in her grave + CG mecha which manage to look good (they’re intended to seem ethereal) - too much exposition in one place - fanservice spike not closely tied... | | |
| 12:59pm | Casshern Sins - 03 | | | | Short Synopsis: Casshern meets a man who travels alone. Highlights: Subtle drama rocks! Overall Enjoyment Value: 8,5/10 Am I the only one who finds it ironic that the series with the most original and appealing character-design of the season is a remake of a series that came from the 1970’s?... | | |
| 9:38pm | Ga-Rei Zero episode 2 ~ Killing has never been so easy | | | | I shat bricks! I really hope that I am not biting off more than I can chew for one season but here you have it, I have decided to take up this series as well based on what I thought was quite a stunning first two episodes. One of the reason why this series sticks out from the pack like a sore thumb... | | |
| 8:57am | Shutting the Files: CG Mecha Done Well | | | | Paperwork just got hardcore. I personally struggle to be convinced by the heavy use of CG when animating mecha, as it usually lends an unhelpful weightless or ethereal quality to giant robots. I’m told that this is actually because CGI looks too good, and therefore very out of place. There are... | | |
| 3:44am | ACEN08: FUNimation | | | | Aaaaand FUNimation’s panel ACEN08: FUNimation Aaaaand FUNimation, which I know has at least one announcement today (and, no doubt, a sum-up of all their announcements in the past week). Events manager Adam Sheehan presides once again, and it sounds like it’s mostly going to be the same... | | |
