| 8:50pm | Still Alive? | | | | Yes, I am still alive and so is this blog. I did not update this blog for a month due to my laziness (this is really not a good excuse). Anyway, after my final exam was done, I was going to just relax a little by watching some anime, but it turned out that I could not stop watching a series after another... | | |
| 10:48pm | Are We Just Gravy? The Importance of American Market to the Japanese |  | | | Japanator’s Dick McVengeance issued a challenge in the comments of his response to my fansub controversy. He wanted to know if the American DVD sales of anime actually meant anything to the Japanese. Was the American market really important to the global anime economy, or were we all just gravy... | | |
| 5:33pm | Marimite in Lucky Star |  | | | The cameo in Lucky Star obviously helped Marimite to grab the eye time. But the funny part is, what Lucky Star represents is essentially absent from Marimite’s action; it forms the unseen background. Konata becomes a fan of the concept commonly associated with the show, but not the show itself!... | | |

| 3:11pm | Thoughts on Otakon 2008 Day 2 Part 1: Wish I Was There From Day 0 |  | | | By TheBigN(egima!?) So I had preregged for the convention and everything, but I was still kinda worried about if I was able to actually go or not. This is usually caused by a combination of bad timing and irrational fear, but since nothing was really going on in medical school for that upcoming week... | | |

| 12:10pm | Natsume Yuujinchou episode 3: Houston, we have comedy | | | | 2008 has been a Good Year for anime so far. We’ve had Geass R2, Kaiba, Spice and Wolf and many other really good shows. What 2008 has completely failed in is bringing us some decent comedy! I mean so far we’ve just had two sequels with Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei and Minami-ke, neither of which... | | |
| 3:11am | A world without skirts, etc. | | | | I’ve been doing my bit to support legal anime downloads by keeping up with Strike Witches at BOST. I’m still not convinced that the series really needed to be made. Conceptually, it’s delicately balanced on the borderline between absurd and dumb, but, as Steven says, you’ve got... | | |
| 4:00am | Anime Expo 2008 - A Whirlwind of changes. | | | | So, AX08 has come and gone. Now the dust has settled and the lines are drawn… or something like that. Though, what came of this years AX, is the fact that Funimation has become the biggest anime distributor in region 1, with Bandai Entertainment not far off. We had some exciting licenses, Hayate no... | | |
