| 12:00am | Tokyo Magnitude 8.0, the Set-up for Regret, and the Doomed Childhood | | | | I found myself very much taken by the first episode of Tokyo Magnitude 8.0. It got to me in a powerful way. At first, I was complaining to myself at how yet another story is set in middle school with a lot of cute girls. What I didn’t expect is a rather sober and nuanced portrayal of childhood... | | |
| 1:41pm | Suzumiya Haruhi Season 2 episode 3: Deja Vu? | | | | All of the sudden, the story took an interesting turn. Or rather, an unexpected loop of events. Scamp had shared some of his views of how will the matter would resolve though I personally believe that the writers are simply messing us up. Now that we are certain something weird truly is going on with... | | |

| 6:57pm | Spring 2009 Wrap-up: Eden of the East, K-ON! & Ristorante Paradiso |  | | | The spring season finished like a couple of weeks ago, and I haven’t blogged about actual anime in a while, so I have decided to write about the three spring shows I have finished watching (Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood and The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya 2 are still airing, and I haven’t... | | |
| 6:01pm | The Degeneration of Haruhi Suzumiya | | | | No, it's not a new novel and certainly not a new episode ending finally the Endless Eight. What follows is a point of view on a studio and a publishing house that have no respect for their customers, a recurring theme these days. So what's the deal here for those that are blissful but want to get... | | |
| 5:28pm | The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya - Season 2 - Episode 5 (aka Episode 15) | | | | "We've entered an endless recursion of time" Koizumi tells us.

| 5:18am | The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi Fans |  | | | Oh wow they actually did it. 4 episodes of the same thing. If they are trying to bring home the message that 15,513 times of repetition for Yuki was BOREDOM HELL well it’s working. The only thing I found interesting this ep was Kyon’s reference with Macross Frontier. What’s the betting... | | |
| 12:39am | Suzumiya Haruhi 2009 - 15 (Endless Eight) |  | | | I'm going to forgo a summary again since it's pretty much the same set of events, though this episode is probably a bit closer to episode 13 than last week's episode. I do want point out a couple of the differences though because they might be important. First, they seemed to focus on the clouds and... | | |
| 9:58am | The Repetition Of Haruhi Suzumiya | | | | Real Life is working me particularly hard these days.

| 6:23pm | The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya - Season 2 - Episode 4 (aka Episode 14) | | | | Well, I guess if KyoAni are allowed to create the exact same episode as last time with some subtle variations, then I should probably be allowed to simply link to my entry for the last episode and go grab a beer.Quite simply, this third instalment in the "Endless Eight" story arc of the series has nothing... | | |
