| 5:00pm | Telepathy Shoujo Ran - 26 [Final] |  | | | Ran tries to convince the animals that humanity is worth saving. Impressions: I thought this episode was great as just a stand alone episode, or more precisely, as an episode of the three episode arc. However it still really failed to do a lot for a series ender except a small unimportant epilogue... | | |
| 2:37pm | Telepathy Shoujo Ran - 25 |  | | | Ran, Midori, and Rui try to find the cause of the quake and the mystery of the sudden appearance of animals.

| 10:54pm | Telepathy Shoujo Ran - Episode 26 (Completed) | | | | Had this been a thirteen episode series I would probably have been more forgiving, but as it is I have to say that I'm both glad and relieved that Telepathy Shoujo Ran has come to an end. I hate to steal the thunder of a fellow 'Blogger who mentioned this series in passing recently as the dullest anime... | | |
| 6:40pm | Telepathy Shoujo Ran - Episode 25 | | | | At last, we move fully into Telepathy Shoujo Ran's final story arc, inevitably bringing back Momoko (who frankly has been the only half-decent "baddie" in the series anyway) to cause some chaos, the beginnings of which we saw last episode.After building up the tension last time around, the immediate... | | |
| 3:27pm | December Summary | | | | For December, I decided to write my summary a bit earlier than usual, so that I can gather a bit more time to work on my 2008 Summary, where I list my highlights of the past year. Overall, this has been a very straightforward month without many big surprises: the series that I expected to do well did... | | |
| 8:44pm | Telepathy Shoujo Ran Review - 80/100 | | | | The latest NHK-series: Telepathy Shoujo Ran, a charming mystery shoujo series about the titular character who is blessed with the gift of telepathy, among others.

| 8:08pm | Telepathy Shoujo Ran - 26 | | | | Short Synopsis: Ran and Midori use the power of love to get rid of the fox deity (hey, what else did you expect? An “Everyone dies”-ending?) Overall Enjoyment Value: 7/10 (Enjoyable) Ah crap. Of course, I should have noticed. That’s one major headdesk moment. Remember the episode... | | |
| 4:43pm | Telepathy Shoujo Ran - 25 | | | | Short Synopsis: All over town, people are turning into animals. Overall Enjoyment Value: 7,5/10 (Good) Ah, of course. Finally we understand what was up with the dog and the lighter in the very first episode: it foreshadowed the very final arc. Hehe, nice touch. In any case, in the final arc of the... | | |
| 7:00pm | Telepathy Shoujo Ran - 24 |  | | | When a mysterious earthquake occurs at night, it spurs several things in motion. Impressions: I was pretty impressed with this episode.

| 10:37pm | Telepathy Shoujo Ran - Episode 24 | | | | An episode of Telepathy Shoujo Ran without Ran hearing voices would be like well, quite a good episode of Telepathy Shoujo Ran, most probably. Okay, to be fair the voices are largely kept to a minimum this time around, and if nothing else we at least look likely to be finishing the series with a story... | | |
| 12:00pm | Telepathy Shoujo Ran - 23 |  | | | Ran hears the voice of someone in distress and tires to help him fulfill a thousand year old promise. Impressions: For a usual episode, this was pretty good, of course it didn’t’ have anything that is that critical and important, it was just a normal episode for this series dealing with a random... | | |
| 11:27pm | Telepathy Shoujo Ran - Episode 23 | | | | It's time for episode twenty-three of Telepathy Shoujo Ran, and the heroine of the series is hearing voices again - Shouldn't she have been locked up in an asylum for this by now?Anyway, this time the voice in question belongs to someone whose soul has been locked inside a haniwa - A man who is on a... | | |
| 1:00pm | Telepathy Shoujo Ran - 22 |  | | | Ran and the others look for a mysterious snow woman when they are skiing. Impressions: This episode was alright, but again as most other episodes of this series it seems to fall into the same pattern of some random mostly unimportant mystery that they solve. Although this particular mystery wasn’t... | | |
| 10:12pm | Telepathy Shoujo Ran - Episode 22 | | | | Another episode of Telepathy Shoujo Ran means another holiday for Ran and company - Just how many holidays does she get off school? And how can they afford these things?! It's the one mystery I really find myself wishing this series would tackle.Anyway, if it's any consolation at least this holiday... | | |
| 8:53pm | Telepathy Shoujo Ran - 24 | | | | Short Synopsis: Animals start acting strangely in Ran’s hometown. Overall Enjoyment Value: 7,5/10 (Good) Well, it’s finally time for this series’ finale, and as it turns out I was wrong about the amount of novel volumes: there are just eight of them, not nine. The final arc, if I’m... | | |
