| 7:41am | Top Picks – Fall 2008 Anime, Part 1 | | | | While I still am hesitant to list my top five shows of the season, I realized that I was much more confident when it came to picking my other awards of the season. This first part deals mainly with the characters in the anime and the second part will focus on the entire show in general and the work... | | |
| 7:05pm | Yozakura Quartet episode 10 ~ Big white fluffy marshmallowy thing… | | | | So unthreatening yet so dangerious (oh and the snow flakes from the site makes it look like a snow dino) Honestly speaking? This was quite a disappointing and boring episode to watch as hardly anything out of the ordinary “depressive” mood established in the previous episode happened and... | | |
| 9:59am | Yozakura Quartet - Episode 10 | | | | As episode nine left us with a cliff hanger, so the tenth instalment of Yozakura Quartet pushes us heartily off said cliff, with the revelation that the town elders have ordered the destruction of Nana-Gou, and with it the town itself. Needless to say this comes as quite a shock to all and sundry, and... | | |
| 12:45am | Yozakura Quartet ep. 9 |  | | | [ Episode 9: Towards the Goal ] I’m not late. You just watched the episode too early. Holy shit @ Touka. Why the hell doesn’t she fight with everybody else? She looks like she could be fucking top tier in this series. As a side character, she’s a bit too boring with having only... | | |
| 7:06pm | Yozakura Quartet #10 — Lazy Monster Design 101 | | | | "Make it big, textureless, and add some fangs." Impressions: Meh, whatever. Blah blah blah abandon city, Hime pissed at Akina, Yuuhi shows up to grope his secretary lay the smack down on the elders, everybody fights giant white things and then we’ll get to fight them some more next... | | |
| 6:03am | Yozakura Quartet 08 |  | | | Summary: Enjin wants the key to get into the room that Hime went in for the ceremony. Even though Ao frees herself with the power of static, Enjin is able to take the key from Hime and force Akina to use it. Everyone knows that if Enjin can reach the bottom room, he’ll screw with the NPK ratio... | | |
| 4:18pm | Yozakura Quartet episode 9 ~ Rampaging powers | | | | A tip, don’t annoy this girl D: So it seems like Akina had more than one chance to banish Enjin to the other world, both of which he just let him go because he felt that Gin could be savedidiot Thoughts: That said I fully understand his intentions. Akina just wants a way to save his friend as... | | |
| 11:16pm | Yozakura Quartet - Episode 9 | | | | The last episode of Yozakura Quartet left various individuals having to make tough decisions in the midst of the chaos surrounding Enjin, and so in episode nine all of those characters have to live with their choices and the fallout from them.While the town is relatively safe once again, the after effects... | | |
| 4:07am | Yozakura Quartet ep. 8 |  | | | [ Episode 8: It's time ] Enjin. Former magician. Even with so much happening, I thought this was the weakest episode so far. I mean even with the Nana-gou blossoming, you never feel a real sense of impending doom. As the weird mushy roots grow and take root of the town, instead of “whoa”... | | |
| 7:57pm | Yozakura Quartet #09 — Less Angst, More Berserk | | | | Let Touka fight, dammit. Impressions: Blah blah blah. Another week of vanilla anime lite. About five minutes of interesting scenes and 15 minutes of exposition, as usual. Stupid slow Thursdays. Touka stole my heart this episode for adding violence and wanton property destruction as her powers started... | | |
| 10:23pm | Yozakura Quartet - Episode 8 | | | | As Yozakura Quartet has largely avoided being too action-oriented so far, preferring instead to focus on the relationships, thoughts and feelings of the main characters, I was a little wary of just how well the series could pull off an episode that was entirely centred around the main plot line and with... | | |
| 5:42pm | Yozakura Quartet episode 8 ~ Flying boulders and failing fights | | | | And I’m not joking about the boulders part ^^’ “Finally, we are about to get a bit of decent action” was what I thought when this episode started but as you can probably guess, this certainly wasn’t what happenedsadly Thoughts: But even so there isn’t much to talk... | | |
| 1:57pm | Yozakura Quartet 07 |  | | | Summary: The town festival has arrived, and both the Hiizumi and Sakura families must do a special ritual 7 times in 7 days. It sounds impressive, but really all this involves is Akina opening up a door. Then Hime sits with her spear and thanks the spirits of the Nana-Gou until she falls asleep.... | | |
| 6:22am | Yozakura Quartet #08 — No! Bad Akina! Stop Sucking! | | | | Man, you were doing so well for almost two whole months. Impressions: I have to admit that as the action started winding down and Enjin started ranting and raving about how much this world sucks blah blah blah humans and youkai blah blah blah will remake the world, I got up to get a brownie sundae,... | | |
| 9:12pm | Yozakura Quartet 06 |  | | | Summary: Enjin arrives with more black feathers than Suigin Tou, but just like that he retreats. Gin’s deep lolicon longings for Ao have put Enjin out of commission, so he allows Shinozuka to go wreck some havoc on the town. Meanwhile, Kotoha is excited to be going on a business trip to the... | | |
