| 8:36pm | You mean I’m supposed to have a LIFE? Sigh… |  | | | No, this not going to be an emo, weepy, “I hate the blogosphere so I’m quitting KTHXBAI” post. This is an optimistic but realistic “I wish I had more time for fandom and anime in general but life’s kinda taking over” post. Sigh. In case you’re new to BH (or... | | |
| 10:05pm | Deborah Fourzan Still Missing | | | | Author’s Edit: She’s been found! Via ANN. For those of you that haven’t been paying attention for the last month, on February 2, Deborah Fourzan went missing from Tecumseh, OK. Why does this have any bearing on you at all? Well, in her note upon disappearing, she mentioned that... |
| 6:50am | Great Teacher Onizuka Review | | | | Eikichi Onizuka. 22 years old. Even as Japan keeps turning out more new anime, there’s still perfectly good series out there from the past, and that’s especially true for people who might have been introduced to anime just recently. It’s hard to believe that GTO will be 10 years old this June,... |
| 5:59pm | TV Tokyo’s Overseas Plans | | | | Via ANN. So TV Tokyo is going to try and focus on overseas marketing in order to increase its revenue. One of their executives cites this as the only way to preserve the industry in the long run. Now the question is, is this a good idea? Well, look at the American industry. It’s not doing... |
| 5:55pm | Maria Holic episode 6 | | | | HOLY CRAP I DID NOT SEE THAT COMING!So yes. I did not to get episode 5, because a) I was busy with shameless shipping, and b) not that much happened anyway. At first, I was... |
| 1:25am | Shamless Shipping ‘09 #7 Rue and Mytho | | | | If there was a couple I’d have to place as one of those most beautiful couples I’ve ever seen, it would go to Rue and Mytho from Princess Tutu. Although this is helped by their numerous number of outfits. As for the couple themselves, there is unfortunately very little to say; they’re... |
| 3:01pm | D.Gray-man Manga and Anime Dub News! SQUEE! | | | | First (and most importantly) - Hoshino Katsura’s publication of the D.Gray-man manga will resume in Weekly Shounen Jump on March 9, not in April as originally rumored. She had been allegedly suffering from a wrist injury. The hiatus in question began in November (If I remember correctly) with... | | |
| 8:46pm | Shameless Shipping ‘09 #6 - Yukino/Kanade | | | | Lesser known ONA Candy Boy has a lot of sweetness and romance for those who aren’t prejudiced against its main characters. The Sakurai (fraternal, though both girls) twins, Kanade and Yukino, have been together their whole lives. They haven’t really needed anybody else, because they’ve... | | |
| 12:59am | Shameless Shipping ‘09 #5 - Simon and Nia | | | | We all knew this was coming. In reality, it’s not shameless shipping, as the couple is very much canon. Still they’re my favorite couple ever, and perfect for Valentine’s Day. At this time, I’m sorta of the opinion if you don’t know who Simon and Nia are, you should... | | |
| 2:06am | Shameless Shipping ‘09 #4 - Iku/Doujou | | | | I’ve already pimped this pairing pretty hard, but like with any under appreciated couple, you can never really pimp it too hard. And one needs some GARful shipping during a series in honors of the sappiest holiday in human history, anyway, just to keep y’all from getting cavities. Toshokan... | | |
| 1:46am | Shameless Shipping: Fakir/Duck | | | | Ah. Nothing like a boy and his duck. Princess Tutu is a very difficult anime to explain, especially without spoiling anything. Although in truth, my favorite part wasn’t the story itself, but the characters and the way they changed and developed. One of the most notable is the relationship... |
| 11:01am | Shameless Shipping ‘09 #2 - Taiga/Ryuuji | | | | One of my favorite things about Toradora is how it’s still relatively unpredictable. Or, rather there isn’t any blatant foreshadowing. For example, with Zero no Tsukaima, the viewer is introduced to LouisexSaito right off the bat, and every other character is obviously a rival —... | | |
| 6:43am | Tales of Vesperia Movie Announced | | | | Via Kotaku. I really can’t summarize it more than they did, so I’ll just tell you a bit about it. Tales of Vesperia is the latest flagship title in Namco’s Tales series. The Tales games are RPGs done with a real time battle system, which seems to improve with every iteration,... |
| 10:40pm | Shameless Shipping ‘09 #1 - Stein/Marie (Minor Spoilers) | | | | Confession time: I never even got around to watching the Soul Eater anime. (I have familiarized myself with the later plot points in the anime, though, for the sake of writing the post.) To be honest, I live for the monthly manga installments, but I regret not getting around to watching any of the... | | |
| 10:44pm | Ohayocon 2009 Report | | | | I heard there was a convention this past weekend. It certainly seemed like it. Maybe I’m getting jaded by other conventions, but this seemed more like a ridiculously huge social gathering than a convention. Anyway, continue on for my (and CJ’s!) report. I arrived on site a little... | | |
