| 7:32pm | Jigoku Shoujo - 76 | | | | Short Synopsis: Yuzuki is!%$#%#$@$@#!@#!#$@!@#!!!!! Episode Rating: 9/10 (Fantastic) Holy. Freaking. Heck! Oh my god, what an utterly incredible episode. I would even go as far as saying that this has been the single best episode that I have ever seen from Jigoku Shoujo, and with such an amazing series,... | | |
| 6:25am | Top Picks – Winter 2009 Anime, Part 1: Cast and Character Awards | | | | If I was giving an award for best hair cut, the guy on the left would win.The winter season, as conventional wisdom goes, is one of the weaker seasons for new anime. Oftentimes this generalization has some truth to it but this time a combination of sequels to good shows and a handful of new hits made... | | |
| 2:51pm | TBE’s Mega Spring Anime Preview 2009 |  | | | A tad late for this but is better than never, March is here and what are our own picks of the anime in Spring. A quick breakdown on the list and I realized that there a couple of interesting animes out there. Lets see what we have in our mega spring anime preview. Titles are arranged randomly. Navigation... | | |
| 12:44am | [Anime Investigative Reports] Ibuki Ikaruga vs. Haruka Minami | | | | Watching anime would leave people with the opinion that parents routinely leave the care of their children to the oldest sibling. Currently there’s two different anime, Minami-ke and Asu no Yoichi, that feature the eldest sister as the head of the household while still attending high school. While... | | |
| 4:37pm | White Album - 10 | | | | Short Synopsis: Touya gets reassigned as Rina’s manager. Episode Rating: 8/10 (ZOMG Second Season!) Aah, this is just too much for me to understand. The most important plot twist of the episode was written down on paper, and I have no bloody idea what it meant. Although Hiragana and Katakana... | | |
| 3:30pm | T.H.A.T. Spring 2009 Anime Preview |  | | | Lets all welcome back one of the best harems ever, also led by an occasional trap. I’d like to first thank the huge wealth of comments we receive each time we do a preview. I spend many, many hours of my time putting these together, and it makes it feel very much like my time was well worth it... | | |
| 9:53am | Haruhi Second Season Due After All? |  | | | The latest announcements with respect to Haruhi are being interpreted by many as referring to a second season airing in April, not the generally inferred rerun of the first season. Aya Hirano is quoted as saying “Reprising the role of Haruhi was a pleasure!” Those prepared to believe anything now... | | |
| 11:43am | Shikabane Hime - 22 | | | | Short Synopsis: Finally! The cat! Episode Rating: 9/10 (fantastic) Amazing! The second season just continues to get better and better! I know I have ranted a lot about the second season so far, but the past few episodes have been utterly incredible! This could very well turn into my favourite Gainax... | | |
| 5:12am | Weekly Anime Review (Feb 23 – Mar 1) | | | | Isn't it funny how fate works sometimes.There’s two changes to this week’s anime review that I need to mention before going on. The first is something I mentioned last week, I’ve tweaked my grading scale. What happened, if you didn’t already read, is that I’m throwing out the pluses which... | | |
| 10:07pm | Natsume Yuujin-Chou - 22 | | | | Short Synopsis: Natsume buys a picture and wakes up next to flower blossoms. Episode Rating: 8/10 (Excellent) Aha! I finally see the big difference in how I’ve been enjoying the first season when compared to the second season. Those who have read my past entries probably know that for some reason,... | | |
| 9:31am | Lightning Chess: reports back from a Code Geass (S1) marathon | | | | Wait, we’re not in sad girl in snow land anymore, Totoro. Er, Toto. Ah, where to begin? Such a scope really begins to overwhelm me, sort of like how power (and revenge, and table-humping yuri urges) did to many of the characters in Code Geass. And I’m only halfway home so far – somehow... | | |
| 12:06pm | February Summary | | | | A bit of a boring list this time perhaps, since it looks mostly the same as last month’s with perhaps a few small differences. Nevertheless, this was a very good month. The winter season has proven to be an excellent one, and quite a few series spent this month getting even better than they already... | | |
| 7:59am | Someday’s Dreamers Season 2 Series Review | | | | This delightful slice-of-life show is a “sequel” but the only thing it shares with the first season is the general world setting – I don’t believe there’s even any cameos of the first season cast. Therefore calling this the second season is a bit of a misnomer and shouldn’t stop a potential... | | |
| 8:50pm | Shikabane Hime - 21 | | | | Short Synopsis: The seven stars put Makina and Hokuto in one room. Fighting ensues. Episode Rating: 8/10 (Excellent) I’m still amazed at this series. I keep having these fears, for the huge amount of pitfalls that this series can fill into. And here it comes, and proves me wrong time and time... | | |
| 12:00am | Fans of Gundam Love their Franchise Like Saji Loves Louise | | | | So yeah the blog is named after a Macross reference, but I’m a Gundam fanboy too, and part of my fascination for the franchise has to do with the behavior of its fandom. I’m not exactly jumping out my seat to applaud Gundam 00 (though I find the recent episode 20 to be quite good), but... | | |
