| 2:17am | CLANNAD ~AFTER STORY~ ep. 12 |  | | | [ Episode 12: Unexpected Incident ] Half way there. Wow, this episode was unexpectedly heavy. It was disappointing for me to see that all Yuusuke got was a flashback; not even a whole episode for his background. I wished they could have delved deeper into that. They pretty much sped through it and... | | |
| 5:00am | Yozakura Quartet Review |  | | | Nothing like finishing two crappy anime series in the same month, and Yozakura Quartet was just as bad, if not worse, than Birdy the Mighty Decode. You’d never know it from reading the manga, but Yozakura Quartet is just a meandering mess that feels like one long filler arc in a bad, long shounen... | | |
| 1:40am | Yozakura Quartet 12 (Final) |  | | | Summary: Hime smacks Enjin around a little, but before Akina can tune Enjin, Enjin uses his most powerful attack on Akina. Incredibly, Akina falls for the Gin impression yet again, and gets sucker punched in the belly for his trouble. Enjin then goes off to beat up the elders, but Hime gets there... | | |
| 1:28pm | Kabitzin’s December 2008 List |  | | | Christmas has passed, and we’re wrapping up the end of 2008. There were some pretty good episodes this month, although there was some shuffling in my top five this month. Unfortunately, now we enter into that dead space between seasons, so next month will probably be very sparse. Top Five... | | |
| 10:48pm | Yozakura Quartet ep. 11-12 [END] + Review |  | | | HIIIIZUUUUUMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII II [ Episode 11: Your Front ] Fuck yeah, shota god. You actually did something cool for once. And whoa, an actual fight scene between Kyousuke and that other guy. It was pretty short, but sweet nonetheless. But where the fuck did Touka come from? Did Hige (the bearded... | | |
| 10:07pm | Yozakura Quartet - Episode 12 (Completed) | | | | So, as we reach the climax of Yozakura Quartet, so the series is perfectly poised, with Enjin about to do battle with Hime as the cherry blossoms bloom around the town, and the rest of the gang closely involved too in their own various ways of course.Given this promise of an all-out, action-packed episode,... | | |
| 3:10am | Yozakura Quartet ep. 10 |  | | | [ Episode 10: A Thorny Road ] The show is traveling down a thorny road indeed. The more we delve closer to the finale, the more I lose interest in this show. If I were to sum up my thoughts about this episode into one word, that word would be: meh. I honestly don’t really care what’s... | | |
| 9:00pm | Weekly Anime Review (Dec. 8 – Dec. 14) | | | | One of the lighter weeks in terms of number of episodes that I watched in a long while but the over quality was still very high. What made it feel even less was that almost half of the new anime I watched this week (Index, Toradora, Soul Eater, Xam’d, Clannad) was watched with my sister. Since we... | | |
| 1:29am | Yozakura Quartet 11 |  | | | Summary: Kangetsu Shidou, Ao, and Kotoha form Team Bear and try to locate the source of the demonic power by driving around aimlessly in Shidou’s tiny car. The going is rough because the blobby shadows all jaywalk, but fortunately Yae jumps on the hood and clears a path. They finally decide... | | |
| 2:14am | Yozakura Quartet episode 11 ~ Massive cannon of doom, goodbye Tokyo Tower | | | | What the heck? Have they forgotten how to draw faces? Now this was awesome and it about damn time that a decent fight has occured in this series. Seriously, kyousuke should have been the male lead of the series, not Akina. Kyousuke is a hundred, no, a thousand times the man Akina could ever hoped to... | | |
| 11:33pm | Yozakura Quartet - Episode 11 | | | | After "Blob Monster-gate" in the last episode of Yozakura Quartet, I was hoping for better fare this time around, and although said blob baddies did reappear again in this episode this penultimate instalment wasn't all that bad on the whole.With Hime still laid up in a hospital bed, despite her protestations,... | | |
| 5:23am | Yozakura Quartet 10 |  | | | Summary: The elders are prepared to sacrifice the town to save the world, but unfortunately they are easily distracted by Enjin’s powered up geckos. Hime has a flashback to when she had a throat wound, and Gin and Akina gave her a scarf to cover the scar. Unfortunately, either she over-trained... | | |
| 3:55am | Yozakura Quartet #11 — Nurse Flop Attack! | | | | Juri, you are the best thing about this show and I will miss you. Impressions: Man, why couldn’t the entire series have been like this episode? Well, minus Tomokazu Seki, but I think I’ve irrationally ranted enough about him lately. Shinozuka actually fought this episode instead of just... | | |
| 1:14am | Yozakura Quartet 09 |  | | | Summary: Mina and Kana can’t control their vampiric tendencies, Touka busts through her shackles and can’t control her strength, and various other youkai have been having trouble with their powers ever since last episode. Juri and Kotoha theorize that everyone who came in contact with... | | |
| 8:23am | Weekly Anime Review (Dec. 1 – Dec. 7) | | | | Why do bad guys almost always have white hair?Let’s get this out of the way before I get back to the top picks of the fall season.This was another good week of anime watching. Two shows I didn’t list below but I did want to mention was that I finished up a re-watch of Library War and the first season... | | |
