| 11:00pm | SHAFT - Studio Studies Part Three | | | | Now that I’ve covered what I consider the best along with the most influential studio, I have to talk about my personal favorite, SHAFT.

| 6:51pm | Fall Season 08 Impressions and other shows | | | | Let us just go straight to the point. Shall we? Aye. Toradora: I have never seen Zero No Tsukaima and I gave up on Shana after the first season; hence, I am not exactly sick of tsundere characters.

| 4:04pm | ef - a tale of melodies 04 |  | | | More colors in the OP this week. Honestly, I don’t really pay that much attention to it.

Himura wants... | | |

| 9:32pm | ef ~ A Tale of Melodies #04 — Much Ado About Nothing | | | | Getting a little bit crazy all up-ins here. Impressions: Man, not much happened here at all. In between going crazy, Kuze leads on Mizuki for the entire episode, including kissing his ‘princess’ while she’s sick (ew, cooties phlegm!) and then says that he likes her too, and that’s... | | |

The episode started off with Kuze having a violin recital, presented in an abstract world scenario, then suddenly collapses. This has something... | | |
| 3:32am | ef ~ A Tale of Melodies |  | | | It’s completely not weird that one of the main relationships the show focuses on is between a high school freshman girl and a guy who is at least 25 with a room full of school girl outfits. Thank god for those beautiful sunsets; they can make anything good in the right light. | | |
| 11:45pm | Ef a tale of melodies 4: that was SO GOOD | | | | I was really impressed with this episode. The music, the art, the atmosphere, the everything.

| 10:49pm | ef - a tale of melodies - Episode 3 | | | | To call the opening couple of episodes of ef - a tale of melodies a slow-burner would probably be something of an understatement, given the series propensity to feed us only tiny parts of the story while preferring to dazzle us with its artistic merit - A plan which, as I mentioned last time around,... | | |
| 2:31pm | [Ascaloth] ef ~a tale of melodies~, Episode 3 | | | | Things are progressing fast on the Kuze-Mizuki side of the series, so much so that it’s hard to believe that it’s only Episode 3.
