| 12:00am | Hitohira 2: Fake....one? (まがい・・・・物？) | | | | Two words to summarize the highlight of this first episode: Impressive visuals!In my opinion, the first few minutes of this episode have the same feel as those Chinese martial arts/"wu xia" series. In those series, often the main hero/heroine wanders through the country, similar to what is happening... | | |
| 12:00am | Honey & Clover Episode 19 | | | | Paradise Kiss is about a girl named Yukari who is a bit of the stuck-up studious type who gets in the mix with a bunch of free-spirited fashion design students and begins a life-changing journey of self discovery yada yada yada. I've read the short 5 volume series twice, so I'm pretty familiar with... | | |

| 12:00am | January 2007 -- New Anime | | | | After three amazing seasons of anime, the season that starts in January may be a bit of a respite. But that's what I always think, and then the shows that seemed as if they would be ordinary turn out to be great. In January, I'm most looking forward to Nodame Cantabile and Les Miserables. These | | |
| 12:00am | January New Anime -- Nodame, Manabi, and the rest | | | | As usual, I like too many shows. The winter season is usually a down time, but there are four new shows I find excellent through two or three episodes. Especially Nodame Cantabile and Manabi Straight. (Mouseover images for captions, click to enlarge.)Nodame Cantabile — Intelligent, romantic, | | |
| 12:00am | Kami-chama Karin - First Impression | | | | Kami-chama Karin is based on a shoujo manga by Koge Donbo, who's also well known for Pita Ten and Di Gi Charat. Apparently it was supposed to be a short one-shot manga, but was popular enough the manga ended up running for seven volumes, then spawning a sequel, Kami-chama Karin Chu. Is it good? Bad?... | | |
| 12:00am | Kanon 2 | | | | I say the good parts first. The best 3 minutes in each episode are OP and ED, both animation and music in those. If this would be short OVA where Ayu eats different kind of Taiyakis in strong wind and after that run in the snow this would be really good.Unfortunately there is one small problem which... | | |
| 12:00am | Kemonozume Episode First Taste (ケモノヅメ第一話初めての味) | | | | Ergo Proxy Episode 23 The Agents/代理人/deus ex machinaThe only blog left to witness the end of time!Written by Dai Sato (of course)Sorry for the lateness of this posting. However this is a complicated episode and I am not sure whether I am getting everything right. The last episode does tie in all... | | |
| 12:00am | Kyoushirou to Towa no Sora -- characters and seiyuus, w/pics | | | | I've made a page with pics of the ten main characters and their voice actors.This show is just getting better. I'm not sure what it is -- the outlandish story, the good voice-acting, the erotic atmosphere -- but the show has exceeded my expectations. So I wanted to be clear who the voice actors | | |
| 12:00am | La Corda D'Oro -- Character and Voice Actor Pics | | | | Here's a page of character and voice actor pics for Kin-iro no Corda (La Corda D'Oro) ~Primo Passo~. This is an adaptation from a girls' dating game, but it is more than just a reverse harem anime -- although it is certainly that. The heroine is wonderful, the guys are individuals, the | | |
| 12:00am | Lesbian Comix: Definition and Potential | | | | Today's review is a first for Okazu. Our Guest Reviewer, Jen, has made many dozens of comments here, but this is the first review she's written for us. I'm thrilled beyond belief to introduce you all to such an original thinker, and funny, funny gal. Take it away Jen!Forgive the schizophrenic | | |
| 12:00am | Lesbian Graphic Novels: Fun Home and 12 Days | | | | I read both of these graphic novels this week and, as soon as I put down the second of the two, I knew that I absolutely had to review them together as a compare/contrast. So, I'm shaking out my old Comparative Literature Major for today's review. It's a bit dusty, let's see how I do.Both Fun | | |
| 12:00am | Lesbian Manga: Honey & Honey Deluxe | | | | Honey & Honey isn't really a "Yuri" manga. It's a manga about a lesbian couple, Sachiko and Masako (who is bi,) and their friends, some of whom are also in a "sexual minorities" and some of whom are not - you know, like real people. It is also a biographical comic, written and drawn by | | |
| 12:00am | Looking back at New Year's Day | | | | This is a post that has nothing to do with Yuri. :-)Back in January, on the first two days of the year, I, the wife, and our friend and YC staffer Bruce all undertook something called a "Shichifukujin-meguri," while in Tokyo. That is, we walked around the section of Tokyo called Minato-ku and | | |
| 12:00am | Lucky Star -- interview with Endou Aya (Miyuki's VA) | | | | There's an interview with Miyuki's VA Endou Aya 遠藤綾 on the Lucky Star official site.The most interesting comment for me was about Konata, comparing her to eating dried squid: "The more you chew on her the more her flavor comes out." I also enjoyed Endou's comments about how | | |
