| 3:36pm | Ufotable is the Best Studio Ever and Makes Kyoani Look like Gonzo. | | | | Yes, that’s right! The greatest anime studio on Earth, or in the history of this blue planet full of fat otaku, is not the likes of Pixar, Ghibli, erm GONZO, Sunrise, Kyoani, Bones or even MADHOUSE, IT IS UFOTABLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEE. Why, I hear you cry like monkeys without pancakes. That’s... | | |
| 6:52pm | UFOTable - Studio Studies Part Two | | | | The greatest studio currently operating? Probably. UFOTable is, at least in the West, one of the lesser known production companies that has developed a hardcore cult following in the last few years. The company formed in 2000 and there is little information in English about the staff. From what information... | | |

| 9:08am | Review: Kara no Kyoukai movie 2 | | | | Watched the movie this morning after waiting in a line for an hour with a bunch of nerds who were doing things like reading the Spice and Wolf novels and playing PSPs. Part 2 concentrates almost exclusively on the initial meeting between Mikiya and Shiki. Mikiya pretty much instantly falls in love... | | |
| 12:56pm | Review: Kara no Kyoukai pt. 1: Overlooking View | | | | When planning my trip over here to Glorious Nippon, I had initially scheduled something very foolish. That is, I thought that I’d be able to go catch Kara no Kyoukai on the night of the 28th at the 10pm showing, despite having to be up the next day at 6 for comiket. I’m not entirely sure... | | |
| 2:38pm | 2007 Summary | | | | And so it’s finally time to say goodbye to 2007. It’s been another great year, and what way to close it off better than with the obligatory end-of-the-year-rankings and -awards. Like mentioned before, this post has turned out a lot bigger than last year now that I’ve had multiple days... | | |
| 3:27pm | Year in Review: United and Live | | | | So why am I talking about Manabi Straight besides I like it a lot? I don’t know. Manabi Straight is a subtle thing. Sometimes I fear that the more I talk about it, the more it gets cheapened. And a good joke explained is rarely funny anymore. Maybe I can say something about UFOTable. Manabi Straight... | | |
| 6:36pm | Tales of Symphonia - 04 | | | | As usual, the episode had its good and its bad points, but I don’t care! At the end of the episode, the creators finally showed what I’ve been longing for ever since this series started: Regal and Presea! They should come in action on the next episode. (Because yes, Tales of Symphonia... | | |
| 11:46pm | Coyote Ragtime Show II |  | | | Finished Coyote Ragtime Show. Ejector seats. You never see any shows with those. It’s either escape pods or go down in flames. Fantastical futuristic technology but we can’t improve on safety at all. Go figure. Moving on, head in a cage character. That really is a bit Macabre. I know it’s... | | |
| 12:36am | Coyote Ragtime Show |  | | | So started something. Again. Oops. Coyote Ragtime Show. Not bad. Very high action introduction following the police woman. It’s all sort of one giant massive build up to “Mister”, introducing the most important main character. Who really doesn’t feel that important, probably... | | |
| 1:35am | Looking forward to… |  | | | So in awhile expect my finished product of my top anime series from this year to be finished. It’ll be out in December some time. It’s a very hard list to make. Whereas this one is super, super easy. I checked out animesuki and MOON PHASE to see what I might want to watch in the next year.... | | |
