| 6:46pm | Guardian Charm Himari #09 — Delicious Flesh | | | | Oh wait, a butterfly. That’s waaaaay more interesting. Impressions: Man the ‘music’ at the start of this episode was like a drill grinding into my ears. Ow. Damn it, Zexcs. It also really says something definite about Yuuto that he has two women stripping and lesbianing it up, and... |
| 11:02pm | Touhou 12.5 — Double Spoiler | | | | In case you hadn’t caught the news, the next Touhou game is going to be essentially a sequel to Shoot the Bullet called Double Spoiler. Is Zun trying to port this series to the DS or something? Touhou DS terrifying. Well, I can’t really care too much since I really wasn’t a fan of... |
| 7:14pm | Ladies vs Butlers! #09 — Hot Steaming Frosted Buns | | | | I question if that movie was actually suitable for minors. Impressions: After the rather nice Drill episode last week, this was a pretty big letdown. Tomomi didn’t really do anything except drag Hino around while still mostly threatening him and calling him a woman. If anything, I’m even... |
| 7:41pm | Chu-Bra!! #09 — The Green Monster | | | | And back to lesbian overtones we go. Impressions: Meh. This was a pretty lame episode that returned focus back to Haruka and Yako. One is developing a crush on someone, and the other has a little spat with her male friend, which was pretty much just a rehash of Komachi and Nayu’s relationship,... |
| 7:56pm | A Certain Worthless Telepath #21 — Zzzzzzzzzzzzz… | | | | 22 seconds of plot stretched out for 22 minutes. Impressions: Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzskkn huh? Oh? It’s over? Let’s see Haruue is a very weak telepath with a very strong mental link to one of the Child Errors. There. Done. I have... |
| 7:52am | Shakugan no Shana S #02 — Helicopter Maid | | | | JCStaff has really got this time wasting thing down pat, haven’t they? Impressions: While the first special at least tried for some humor with its body shuffling antics, this just has pretty much nothing. I’m not even really sure what they’re trying to do wih these OVAs aside from... |
| 6:50am | Shakugan no Shana-tan Dos | | | | Now we’re counting in Spanish? You know, I just finished going through a bunch of project stuff, and I was settling myself down to work on getting some translation done when I check my stream feeds and oh, will you look at that. 40 minutes of Shana sitting around staring at me. EYEING ME.... |
| 2:38am | Fight Ippatsu! Juuden-chan!! DVD #03 — Pink | | | | ‘Cause pink is the love you discover. Impressions: After the all-around unpleasant second hot springs special (which was so unpleasant, I didn’t even post about it), the third one was much more enjoyable. I never liked how the show pretty much just dropped Iono’s bit after her big... |
| 12:28am | Hidden God #08 — Dissension in the Ranks | | | | Robble robble robble Impressions: Something about this episode just seemed off to me. The action was rather well done and all, especially for this series, and they’re still finally charging straight ahead with the plot, but Isuzu seems practically forgotten after spending half the show on her.... |
| 7:20pm | KIDDY GiRL-AND #20 — Nothing to See Here… | | | | Move along, move along Impressions: Well, on the upside, 80% of this episode wasn’t painfully inane. Don’t get too excited, because it was shameless time filler. Q sort of half regains her memory thanks to Letuechie blurting it all out before they wipe it away again. And that’s... |
| 6:37pm | Hidamari Sketch ×☆☆☆ #08 — Food, Glorious Food | | | | Okay, so perhaps not so glorious. Impressions: Despite not really having much of the new girls, this episode was relatively average at best, probably because they kept squeezing on the crab and eggplnt joke stones that they long surpassed getting blood and were down to grinding out bone. Yuno’s... |
| 8:03pm | The Idiot, Tests, and Summoned Beasts #08 — Bug in the System | | | | Abort, retry, fail? Impressions: Excellent episode from start to finish, so let’s go ahead and get the bad out of the way. Production was really really uneven this week. While they did a good job in the second half, the first half was severely underanimated and consisted of a rather significant... |
| 7:20pm | Guardian Charm Himari #08 — Love Love Ques | | | | Is that organized under Love Love or Ques? Impressions: Have I mentioned how hard it is to write about this show yet? At least Railgun and Kiddy Girl give me infinite number of things to mock. This is consistently (and boringly) competent and I’ve already driven the "Yuuto and Rinko are... |
| 7:18pm | Ladies vs Butlers #08 — Death by Chocolate | | | | What a lightweight. Impressions: Dare I say that this was one of the nicest episodes of this show to date? I think I do. It’s still not going to win any awards or suddenly become you know recommendable, but at least so far as this episode went, it was quite enjoyable. A lot of that had to do... |
| 8:59pm | Chu-Bra!! #08 — Ring, Ring, Ring, Ring, Ring, Ring, Ring | | | | Banana hammock. Impressions: Yet more evidence that Komachi comes from a very very troubled home. How does someone even get away with shopping for banana hammocks for middle schoolers without being arrested by the police? Unless Komachi’s brother is handing down his own old banana hammock,... |
