| 7:05am | Mango | | | | (Actual Anime Festival Asia-related stuff here.) |
| 3:17pm | Imagedump: Anime Pre-Festival Asia 2009 | | | | I had a long post planned out, but circumstances and the demons of technology have conspired against my posting it. Therefore, this report shall have to do.What is not shown there are the myriad photos of us wandering around the festival, before it is a festival. We have witnessed a sort of prepatory... |
| 1:53pm | The Line Between Hobby And Work | | | | Apparently tomorrow is Anime Festival Asia 2009. I do not blame you if you do not navigate a great portion of the site, since, coding aside, the thing is not particularly user-friendly. It's a very busy site, full of flashing and pulsating signs; the sort of site one tends to feel inexplicably sullied... |
| 3:09pm | A Devil To Survive | | | | Lest one might be mistaken in believing that my life is naught but fun and games, I should mention that since this blog is a hobby blog, it shall therefore only focus on hobbies. Real Life stuff that are Not Fun and Not Hobbies don't get time here. (Or most of anywhere, since I'd rather |
| 2:17pm | Kampfer 07 – Pocky | | | | Do people in Real Life actually play that Pocky game? I know there's the whole Lady and the Tramp spaghetti thing, which seems to be a sort of cliche by now; I don't think I've seen it truly played straight, or at least played straight without a mention of the original.But the Pocky thing seems |
| 6:37am | Kampfer 06 – Destroy~ | | | | Why are most of the customers in the Maid-ish Cafe female? Fushigi mystery.Contrary to what Kaede and apparently most of the NPC cast says, I don't really think Natsuru's Special Maid Outfit is all that attractive. It's too showy, and makes her look like she's Trying Too Hard to be sexy. Well, okay,... |
| 12:28pm | A Quirk Of Brain Chemistry | | | | I have a rather bad temper.This really should be no surprise to anyone who knows me. I think what does cause confusion among people who only read my forum postings or my blog stuff is that I have somewhat different triggers for what sets me off.One of these, and indeed a major one that will |
| 3:07pm | Kampfer 05 – Losing His Precious Thing | | | | I'm not sure that I would have done better if I had been in Natsuru's place. On the one hand, girls seem to get a lot more cosplay opportunities. On the other hand, having to keep in shape has to be a lot more difficult. Presumably part of the advantage of Kampfer-ism is the ability |
| 8:28am | Nogizaka Haruka No Himitsu Purezza – Good Enough | | | | I know it's not actually a good show, and honestly speaking I can't think of a reason why I'm even watching it other than "it's good blog fodder". Or rather, blog fodder to talk about, in the sense that I can kind of discuss the stuff around the show without actually talking about the show |
| 11:20am | The Manga Guide To Edutainment | | | | Publisher link for the whole set, at a discount to boot.There's something about putting entertainment and education together that seems to boggle the mind. Entertainment is supposed to be fun, and education isn't. Therefore, "edutainment" is usually seen to be Trying Too Hard, and only the really effective... |
| 1:01pm | Kampfer 02-03 – Pheromones | | | | Kampfer has been getting well, not rave reviews. It is, in fact, getting slammed pretty hard, in the way just about every show I like has been slammed at one point or another (the sole exception is Card Captor Sakura, which appears unslammable). The difference is that after all that slamming, if the... |
| 7:59am | Elevator Music For Everyone's Souls | | | | You can kind of tell how busy my week has been or is likely to be by checking when I post to this blog. As I keep saying, two posts a week without guarantee of quality. If both of these appear on a Sunday, it is a sign that the schedule of my life is |
| 1:28pm | Kampfer Supplemental – Shake It | | | | City of Heroes has a number of dance emotes, for a given value of "dance". This is because the animator who first manipulated the game model frames for this purpose based the moves off his own flailing attempts, and I use these less-than-flattering words because I am quoting to the best of my knowledge... |
| 4:06pm | Kampfer 01 – Innuendo | | | | We'll keep on trying. We'll tread that fine line. We'll keep on trying, until the end of time.I admit that I didn't expect Marina Inoue to voice both versions of Natsuru. When I read the manga, Guy!Natsuru seemed like he'd be voiced by a Standard Harem Comedy Protagonist Voice Actor. I shouldn't be surprised,... |
