| 5:36am | Year in Review: I Feel You, (Wo)Man | | | | Life moves on and year after year I inevitably introspect into my own agenda and how anime fits (or more often than not, doesn’t) it all. I guess I’m one of those people whose brain keeps going at all times of the day, so I might as well grind those extra grey-matter FLOPS on something.... | | |
| 11:43pm | Young VA Hayami Saori Gets New Role | | | | Hayami Saori 早見沙織, 16, played heroine Momoka in Touka Gettan, and sang the ED. She was outstanding at both, in my opinion.Now she has been tapped for one of the four main roles in a new anime, Wagaya no O-inari-sama 我が家のお稲荷さま("O ur House's Fox Spirit"), about a household protected... | | |
| 8:39am | Touka Gettan 03 - Did I See That Right? | | | | Setting aside the fact that the ending to Magikano was an absolutely travesty, it was a pretty good series. But I'm not here to talk about it, am I? No, today we're talking about Touka Gettan, a series that seems to me to be very similar to Fate/Stay Night, except that it confuses me more and has more... | | |

| 6:05pm | Touka Gettan Episode 21 | | | | Wow, WTB moar Notokawaiiyonoto. The name of the colors are lovely. So is the simple b&w trick. Actually all of Touka Gettan has very good color, and it conveys this sense of an exorbitant fantasy to the atmosphere of the show. Thanks to tenacious fansubbers with a love for the strange, Touka Gettan... | | |
| 6:55pm | Claymore Anime | | | | I'm back from vacation, and lightly toasted marshmallow in color. I learned that if you have to order a drink by color, it's not so good. I dubbed my purple drink the "Robitussin Colada." But all the other colors were good. Orange was my favorite - they made a mean Tequila Sunset.I want to be perfectly... | | |
| 11:48pm | Touka Gettan I |  | | | Touka Gettan. Not only a horrendous case of a misleading plot summary, but probably on the top of my list for most confusing anime ever. Second on that list would be Fantastic Children, but it’s a long second. My beef today is withTouka Gettan. I actually started it a few days ago, after my long... | | |
| 4:32am | Weirdness for Weirdness’ Sake? | | | | Yea it’s a post on ef. I can’t help it–this is the kind of anime that gets my mind going. But what is there to say? Lacking the tools of someone who studied film seriously I can only say that much like Soul Taker, for once the direction speaks to the message of the story. Imagine... | | |

| 8:43pm | The Balanced Diet - Sorely Lacking In Kisses | | | | No, this has nothing to do with the blog by a similar name. But the idea behind this rant is the same: there are different stories out there; as a genre or a medium, anime offers some variety of themes and stories. Even more importantly, anime offers a wide varieties of storytelling. Moyashimon is... | | |
| 3:54am | Blue Drop -- Off To a Great Start | | | | Blue Drop is the show that I had the most hopes -- and fears -- for in the fall season. The first episode has fulfilled all my hopes.
