| 2:28am | Strike Witches Part Deux | | | | As much as I want to dislike and discredit Strike Witches, I must admit that series a true guilty pleasure. There really was not much good–longstanding good at least, yet there was a certain fapfapfap charm about it that kept me watching. Classic example of a show with a lot of peripherals,... | | |
| 9:38pm | Names of K-ON |  | | | Since Manabi had a special scheme for names, I went to check if names in K-ON had some cute gaglet attached. But according to ANN, it turned out to be a bit of pandering to fans of rock, or an inside joke at best: The family names of the four main girls are named after former members of the disbanded... | | |

| 6:13pm | AstroNerdBoy on HoiHoi-san | | | | The post at Astronerdboy laments the lack of “a proper anime adaptation” for HoiHoi-san. Boy, do I remember that. In the world of remakes, fresh ideas at at premium, which is what actually makes HoiHoi-san’s passing below the radar so lamentable. It should be painfully clear to fans... | | |
| 10:04am | Why do People Like Saki? WHY?? | | | | Now, it has come to my attention to while people are flaming Shangri-La, many are also praising Saki. Both of these shows are by GONZO. So if people hate GONZO, they should hate Saki right? Apparently not. I fail to understand what these people who like Saki (and who presumably are the people who adore... | | |
| 4:37am | Sanya Fundoshi Fitting | | | | Eilanya prepares for some matsuri particpation, which means fundoshi. Eila seems to be relishing the opportunity to assist Sanya for some reason Another recent image by the same artist, this time of slovenly Erica enjoying some delicious cake: These are by Youkan, whose outstanding, if occasionally... | | |
| 10:02pm | Unfunny Internet Meme Comics #6-2 | | | | I wonder if anyone has ever made an anime or manga series about extreme Snap players. Probably not, I guess, though I suppose it could make an amusing one-shot parody. Actually, I’d kind of like to see an anime series about playing Hanafuda, largely because it might actually result in me finally... | | |
| 7:13am | Dark Mirage on Eureka 7 | | | | The post is laden with spoilers, which made me decide that E7 was not up my alley. “That’s some Kino’s Journey-grade material right there” — enough said. But it seems like a quality production, even if DM himself only says “definitely not a masterpiece”. The imaginery... | | |
