| 1:46am | Random Musings - The State of the Blog |  | | | On this day of Barack Obama's inauguration (I had to stop myself from titling this post "State of the Union"), here are some notes on myself and the series I'm blogging:I said last month that things should be better for me schedule-wise in this new year, but it hasn't quite turned out that way. As some... | | |
| 4:56am | Weekly Anime Review (Jan 5 – Jan 11) | | | | A very light week of anime this week for me. I pushed my watching of many of the new winter shows into the current week so I could try to finish a few lingering shows of 2008 I wanted to get too before 2009 started. I was only partially successful, Shigofumi got watched finally but I still want to get... | | |

| 3:45am | Soul Eater ep40: 소울이터 40화 | | | | Click pictures to enlarge them. Spoilers ahead so please be cautious. Now that the story has separated from the original manga, things got much more interesting (since I don't know what will happen anymore). Well, so far, it is not so far from what I e.. 글 전체보기 | | |

| 6:45am | Anime Inbou Awards 2008, pt. 3 ~ music |  | | | Third round and this time, it’s all about the music. You can have anime with voices, but once you cue the music at the right time, you get some pretty amazing results. Kudos to all the composers and arrangers, and the vocalists for all their hard work! Firstly, we’d like to get our Top... | | |
| 7:17pm | Favorite Anime of 2008 | | | | As if anyone cared, here's my personal list of top anime of 2008.I'd say "best" anime, but "favorite" is more accurate. I can't imagine how to be objective about this. We all have our own likes and dislikes. Even adding up points in various categories -- animation, story, characters, etc. -- seems pretty... | | |
| 3:04am | Top 10 Anime of 2008 | | | | It’s that time of year againtime to rank the top 10 shows of 2008. Of course, the usual caveat: this only includes shows which I watched, which this year was only about 20, so it was a kind of slow year for me. Nevertheless, this list still boasts a pretty impressive list of shows. 10. Birdy... | | |
| 1:15am | There’s Something “Different” About These Voice Actors… | | | | Back when the Soul Eater anime began airing, one of the big topics going around was Maka Albarn’s voice actor. Maka was Omigawa Chiaki’s first role in anime and it showed. Some called her voice work terrible or amateurish, I referred to it as a very natural-sounding voice. For those who... | | |
| 5:35pm | 2008 Was So-So | | | | In terms of the anime year, the anime released for 2008 was subpar. It does not compare to the ever excellent 2007, simply one year ago! As per usual, Anime-Source is planning the end of the year survey. I’ve been brainstorming on what I might select, but from all possible titles, he “best”... | | |
| 5:02pm | Top 10 Anime Openings of 2008 | | | | Yesterday I presented my list of the top 10 EDs of 2008. Now it’s time for what I thought were the top 10 OPs of 2008. Once again, I’m judging these more on the music than the animation of the OP. Also, once again, they have to be songs that premiered in 2008. #10 - Kaiba “Never”... | | |
| 5:07am | Soul Eater 36-38 |  | | | With our three heroes running out of attack options against Mosquite, Soul Eater decides to take a risk and use the power of the black blood through his (terrible) piano playing to activate chain resonance with Black Star, Maka, and Death the Kid. The risk paid off, and the three are able to turn... | | |
| 5:46pm | Top 10 Anime Endings of 2008 | | | | I thought I’d make some top 10 lists for 2008, and the first is the top 10 best ED songs in 2008. The only requirement is that they premiered in 2008 (sorry Shion and CLANNAD EDs!). I’m also judging it more on the song than the animation of the ED. In any case, let’s get to it... | | |
| 5:48am | SOUL EATER - 39 | | | | Summary:Having figured out where Ashura is, Arachne, Giriko, and Mosquito pay a visit to a mountain stronghold. | | |
| 3:31am | Anime Inbou Awards 2008, pt. 2 ~ character | | | | The second part of AIA ‘08 focuses now on what makes a show unique and that is the numerous amount of characters, each with their own personalities, preferences, hobbies, you name it.
