| 3:06pm | Gambling Apocalypse Kaiji - 24 | | | | When most other series build up for one big event, they usually have plenty of time with one episode that’s entirely meant to build up for that particular scene. But Kaiji is different. Kaiji doesn’t need one episode, no. It needs three of them. And so we’ve passed the second episode.... | | |
| 3:17am | (Supposed to be) Short post: At the end of the anime world | | | | It’s red alert at M3 camp following the sudden revelation that all the shows I’ve been watching are ending. With the combination of some ace 1-cour shows this season with some excellent carryover shows from the fall season, the next week or two is looking to be one giant send-off to many... | | |
| 6:32pm | Gambling Apocalypse Kaiji - 23 | | | | Okay, this’ll be a short entry, since all this episode did was building up anyway. Kaiji, while still under the influence of the adrenaline from his match with Tonegawa, is screwed in the head enough to abandon the 20 million he won, just for a shot to challenge the chairman. Even though the... | | |
| 1:10am | Kaiji 23 - Tissues! | | | | Pic related, it sums up the entire episode. I was wondering how long it would take a show about giant noses to get around to mentioning tissues, apparently 23 episodes. | | |
| 4:31am | Why can’t H2O ~Footprints in the Sand~ suck more? (3-5) | | | | I was really looking forward to panning H2O. Seemingly a basic low-level visual novel conversion with fanservice and light-hearted ’storyline’ cliches abounding, it didn’t seem to offer much promise. It’s been a while since I got to break out my flaming keyboard and H2O looked... | | |
| 3:29am | Emperor and Slave: The Mindgames of KimiKiss 22 | | | | Perhaps I’ve compared KimiKiss and Kaiji one too many times for two shows which couldn’t be more opposite in genre and tone, but once again the former surprises me with how much, speaking both outside and inside of the show’s context, it handles itself in a manner that’s almost,... | | |
| 4:07am | KimiKiss 21: Holding ‘em and Folding ‘em | | | | Ignoring the fact that I seem to be mixing up two entirely different card games (and neither of the ‘children’s card game’ variety) the action at the final tables in KimiKiss seems to be heating up (or at least, not cooling down) as the final cards begin to play out. It’s easy... | | |
| 10:16pm | That Has To Hurt |  | | | That’s certainly one of the most cringe inducing anime scenes I’ve ever scene. I can handle blood and gore fine, but the idea of placing flesh on burning metal is just too visceral for me. Tonegawa may be a bastard, but he didn’t deserve that. The Chairman is the real evil. The E-Card... | | |
| 7:32pm | Slice of Life Riuva-style *Via a Nikon D40 | | | | To congratulate myself for obtaining the use of the Nikon D40 DSLR, I shot a few random pictures which should prove interesting to those interested in how an anime blogger lives life. So it’s like, you know, a slice of my life! Haha! I’ve always enjoyed sneaking a peek into the lives of... | | |
| 6:46pm | Gambling Apocalypse Kaiji - 22 | | | | One thing that I do want to praise this series about is the balls that it has to go really extreme. After the Boat-arc, for a minute I feared that Kaiji would try to stop the punishment of Tonegawa. Instead, Tonegawa has proven that he’s a real man this time, even though he lost. He was just... | | |
| 1:12pm | Real men don’t cry, Kaiji | | | | Try as he mightKaiji will neverbe asgar as Tonegawa because.real men don’t cry! Well, that hurt! Watching this scene, aside from feeling a tad uncomfortable, was I the only one reminded of Han Solo being tortured by Vader in The Empire Strikes Back? It was the chair. | | |
| 11:50am | Weekly Round-Up: March 7th | | | | Sometimes I just can’t help being evil; telling children about the slaughterhouse whilst they’re playing Harvest Moon, persuading them that complete Iliana rings can just be mined straight out of the earth, arguing that Albel is HARD GAY for Fayt- is there nothing I won’t do? Then again, sometimes... | | |
| 4:40am | My Show Is Better Than Your Show, March Madness Edition | | | | There seems to be cries every season about how the cropping of shows is worse than the last, and while this may or may not be true depending on your taste in shows, I’ve always found it hard to be lacking in stuff to put up on the screen every night. This is because while there may not be many... | | |
