| 10:39am | Keitai Shoujo - 04 |  | | | Ok so this week I got to this pretty early. Anyway I found this week to be interesting and rather comedic with the whole kuma-san pantsu joke. (I also like how Keisuke called them Tsuppan) So basically for 2 mornings in a row, Hiro on his way to school sees a bunch of little kids flip up | | |
| 8:22am | もってけ!セーラーふく (Motteke! Sailor Fuku) Lyrics | | | | Huh?! No sausages? To think all these while, people thought the first phrase of the song was “I Like Sausage”, but sadly It isn’t! Well~ If you watched the LUCKY☆STAR OP carefully and see their actions and compare it with the lyrics, it kind of make sense. | | |
| 6:59am | Wacom Pen Tablet |  | | | View the rest of this post ( 6 images )Got myself this Intuos PTZ-630 pen tablet by Wacom early on in the year when Azami sensei and I started to work on Mirai-chan. I just found it more convenient to sketch directly in photoshop rather than on paper and then do a scan. The pen tablet also allows | | |
| 5:40am | Darker Than Black Episode 1 - The Star of Contract Fell? (First Half) | | | | OP - HOWLING (abingdon boys school) - yay for posh British women! The OP animation itself leaves quite a lot to be desired - too much CG cityscape, not enough animation - but it does, I suppose, and given this is an Aniplex-sponsored show there’ll be a new OP halfway through that they might | | |

| 5:08pm | The Making of Gunpla | | | | Here’s a pretty interesting video of a Bandai plastic model design factory in Shizuoka prefecture, which by the way is just south west of Yokohama (capital of Kanagawa prefecture) and I know that because I just had a test on Japanese prefectures in school today.

| 11:10pm | D.Gray-Man episode 22 | | | | Heh, time for another D.Gray-Man. I haven't done one of these for a while, but here it is. This episode is particularly awesome, as Allen's new powers awaken!

| 10:28am | Impressions: Hayate the Combat Butler |  | | | I thought the job of a butler was to butle?Kugimiya Rie returns to her standout role in Hayate the Combat Butler: cute loli tsundere. And hearing her again was probably the best part of the episode. I won’t lie, even though I like Hayate, the first chapters can be downright boring. So, | | |
| 10:15am | Glass Fleet - Episode Five |  | | | As the previous episode was one big battle between Vettai and Creo, this episode starts off with the glass ship, taking on another aristocratic general in Vettai's army.My thoughts regarding the big aristocrat leader that is pitted against Creo's glass ship in this episode is that, I think that | | |
