| 12:05am | zero no tsukaima season 2 wrapup |  | | | Last year, Zero no Tsukaima was one of the summer’s pleasant surprises. At preview time, it seemed like it was just going to be Harry Potter meets Shana meets Fate Stay/Night meets meets meets, but it won a lot of people over with its characters and its application of real-world logic (instead... | | |
| 1:22pm | Zero no Tsukaima 2 Ends! It’s So Deus that it’s a Zeus Ex Machina! | | | | Despite the rubbishness of the overall pacing, where too much time was spent on side characters like Agnes, I still kinda liked Zero no Tsukaima 2. It’s perhaps the sequel effect, where one finds the familiar elements nostalgic and is tricked into liking the series in spite of the flaws. The... | | |
| 8:30pm | Zero no Tsukaima Futatsuki no Kishi: A whiff of betrayal | | | | When Zero no Tsukaima's first season was still airing, I stumbled across a thread that summarized events in the light novel up to its seventh volume. Since they never took place in the first season's run, and with no guarantee of a second season at the time, I proceeded to forget about most of it.What... | | |
| 5:01am | Zero no Tsukaima ~Futatsuki no Kishi~ - 11 |  | | | Saito and Louise are sent on a recon mission, but Louise goes with Julio instead in order to save Saito from having to participate in war, giving Saito the wrong idea about her feelings. Impressions:I really love all of the focus they are putting on this whole issue of nobles and dying for reputation... | | |
| 1:34pm | Zero no Tsukaima 2 11 |  | | | A cease-fire is called for the Silver Pentecost holiday, and Louise is miffed that they are taking care of the peasants that Albion’s army abandoned. She blabs about how great it is to be a noble, and Saito gets angry that she favors war over celebration. When Henrietta proposes a recon mission... | | |

| 6:55am | Exciting New Anime I Want to Watch this Fall | | | | Maybe not so new, since some of them are sequels, lol (: Anyway, here’s a Fall Preview of sorts, but only about some (5) of the few series that so far seem like ones I’ll want to check out. Genshiken 2: This is so exciting, more Genshiken! I mean, this is the series that, more than... | | |
| 9:33pm | Zero no Tsukaima II - 11 |  | | | You know it’s pretty obvious the only plot left for this show is “I’m royalty therefore I’d rather die with pride than live as a coward” bullshit. Along with that is Saito and Louise’s “different” ideals on this matter in order to create a conflict so... | | |

| 7:00am | Zero no Tsukaima ~Futatsuki no Kishi~ - 10 | | | | Louise and Saito go on a mission to help against the war on Albion, but end up crashing on the snowy mountain side. Impressions:To be honest, this episode kind of confused me. I mean, the basic premise didn’t, and it’s not as though there were some big plot developments that were really that innovative,... | | |
