| 2:13am | A shounen action series … | | | | about baking bread? Serious baking is not for the faint-hearted. Azuma Kazuma, the protagonist of Yakitate!! Japan, is a sixteen-year-old with an immense talent for baking. He’s bumptious, naive and not terribly bright, but he is extremely dedicated to his craft. He has a special gift, “solar... | | |
| 6:26am | Instant Manga Reviews: Melty Blood and The World’s Best Surgeon | | | | I caught something at Otakon and I’m still feeling kinda bad, but I’ll try to get enough power to write it up by listening to No Border on repeat (although kransom and others pretty much got all you’d care about). Meanwhile, here’s some stuff I meant to post about ages ago. Melty... | | |
| 7:31pm | Hidamari Sketch x365 #06 — This Episode Made Me Sleepy Too, Sae | | | | Be more interesting, damn you! Impressions: A very Sae/Hiro centered episode, though part 1 was pretty much exclusively Sae and part 2 Hiro. This would normally be a good thing, but it really felt like they phoned it in for this one. I don’t know maybe I’m just getting a little tired... | | |

| 4:00am | Inspiring Characters in Anime |  | | | Do they exist? Yes they do. But they’re few and far in between. 1. The cast of Honey and Clover are everything that most anime male leads are not. They’re funny, sociable, independent, quirky, and professional [some of the time]. In the end of the first season the main protagonist goes... | | |
| 3:45pm | Riuva Techs Up! Now With Expensive Equipment. | | | | I made my decision, placed the order and the goods have come! True to otaku hikikomori-style, I bought my new camera via the excellent Bargain City, which was selling the Canon 450D at standard retail price but threw in a bunch of freebies. The usual camera stores much-vaunted by the seasoned pros had... | | |
| 2:37am | Iron Wok Jan - Random Comments | | | | So there are a lot of series about cooking out there. Cooking Master Boy, Yakitate! Japan, Kitchen Princess, (Fighting Foodons?) to name a few. But I had never heard of this series until I stumbled upon it somewhat by accident. I also wound up with volume 5 or something (I don't really remember). Either... | | |
| 2:15am | time for the summer 2008 anime preview/pre-ridicule! |  | | | Man, waiting until other people have written very thorough previews is the way to go. I still get to get my completely unfounded ridicule on, yet I can at least know what shows are about and who is starring in them! Because let’s face it: the whole point of these kinds of posts is just to make... | | |

| 5:45pm | Quickie: Tales of the Abyss Update: Some Staffers | | | | Moon Phase has more details on the Tales of the Abyss anime, although still no say on OVA or TV anime. But the big news is that Sunrise will do the animation. The director will be Kenji Kodama, who directed City Hunter and Case Closed. Yoshihito Hishinuma (InuYasha, Yakitate!! Japan) will do character... | | |

| 4:03pm | Yakitate!! Japan | | | | Azuma Kazuma is a young man with a dream- he wants to create “Japan”, a bread that can stand alongside the likes of French bread, German bread and English loaves as a national icon.
