| 6:18am | Funimation’s New Show A-Go-Go Day 10: Samurai Champloo | | | | Well, this is really confounding. Not only did people blow the Soul Eater clue, but the Evangelion clue, which begs the questionwhat were those clues for (or what did they mean) or are we not done with this New Show A-Go-Go thing? In any case, Funimation (supposedly) wraps up their 10 day announcement... | | |
| 6:04am | Funimation’s New Show A-Go-Go Day 9: Gungrave | | | | Well, someone blew their clue guessing on this one.

For now, I’m dozing off with some online gaming... | | |

| 7:18am | Funimation’s New Show A-Go-Go Day 7: The Count of Monte Cristo | | | | Maybe Funimation should have put out more challenging clues. Once again people guessed the Funimation clues right and once again Funimation rescues a GONZO show previously licensed by Geneon - this time it’s Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo. This is the final Geneon rescue that the clues... | | |
| 3:42am | BladeBlur’s Annual Anime Theme Songs 2008 Awards |  | | | Because I have my own needs! I have done this a year ago at the boards of Naruto Fan so I figured, why won’t I post the awards here for this year?

| 12:03am | Soul Eater Wallpaper 3 | | | | I was looking at my computer desktop last night and realized I needed something new. After looking around at what I had on hand, I ended making more Soul Eater wallpapers. For some reason, it’s easy to find lots of nice artwork from that show.
