| 12:24am | The Good, The Bad, and the Moe: Summer 2009 Anime Rankings | | | | 17 different shows from the summer ‘09 anime season, analyzed and ranked from the bottom up. Disclaimer: These rankings are purely a reflection of our own opinions and tastes, which are admittedly rather different from your average anime fan. Just because we don’t like a particular show... | | |
| 7:40pm | GA:GADC 06-08 |  | | | I dropped each of Hidamari, Sketchbook, Hidamari x365, but GA: Geijutsuka Art Design Class is so engrossing that frustrated with Ayako’s slow pace I watch it raw — which, by the way, far exceeds my Japanese abilities. Usually my approach is to select a favourite in the cast, but characters... | | |
| 2:51pm | GA Geijutsuka Art Design Class - 11 | | | | It’s interesting that while in High School, I had no interest in art whatsoever. And yet I really find all the references of GA to different artworks, techniques and equipment very interesting to watch. But yeah, in high school I also hated reading, writing and subjects as French and German.... | | |
| 3:11pm | GA Geijutsuka Art Design Class - 10 | | | | GA really is the best 4Koma adaptation I have ever seen. And sure, the competition isn’t exactly dazzling, but it’s the first 4Koma adaptation that managed to really portray the short and snappy pacing of those sort of stories. It always brings something new to the table and never fails... | | |
| 2:51pm | GA Geijutsuka Art Design Class - 09 | | | | I’m still amazed at how much the creators are able to cram into just one episode for this series, and still continue to be fresh, original, varied, interesting, charming, and quite a few more adjectives that I’m too lazy to think of. The episode starts at the beginning of classes on a... | | |
| 5:28pm | GA Geijutsuka Art Design Class - 08 | | | | I already suspected this for a while, but now I’m sure: Yamaguchi is awesome. She’s such an adorable character in her innocence and love for art, and that dream sequence at the end of this episode was all kinds of awesome compiled together. I’m really getting more and more warmed... | | |
| 4:13pm | GA Geijutsuka Art Design Class – Art Rock | | | | For some reason, I find the GA Geijutsuka Art Design Class ending theme "Colouring Palettes" kind of catchy. Specifically, the Tomokane version has some cool guitar riffs, despite my not actually liking Tomokane (as a character) that much, at least compared to Kisaragi or Namiko (or possibly Miyabi).... | | |
| 7:21am | Summer 2009 Anime Impressions – Spice and Wolf 2 | | | | I think this will be the last summer anime impression post I do. There’s at least one other show I’d write a post up about (GA – Geijutsuka Art Design Class) but the subs have been really slow and I don’t want to wait another month to get enough episodes to be able to do a post. (I’m not... | | |
| 9:24pm | GA Geijutsuka Art Design Class - 07 | | | | As if this series didn’t already have enough characters, this episode introduces even more of them! Is that a bad thing? Not really. It really goes along with the notion that you can really meet a lot of people at school, rather than only talk to four or five people and ignore just about everyone... | | |
| 6:56am | Summer 2009 Anime Impressions – Kanamemo | | | | I’ve tried to write this impression post several times already but every time I’ve tried to, I just can’t convince myself that I’ve accurately pegged this show. Episode 5 was able to convince me of my opinion but you might be surprised to find out how. Rating: episode 1 – 6/12 B- Rating:... | | |
| 3:54am | What the Heck Am I Still Watching? | | | | Just trying to take stock of all the anime things I’m following in a serial manner. I don’t think I’ve ever done it here, but there are some loose threads I want to write down. They are ordered by no coherent rationale, but they might be, I don’t know. Mobile Suit Gundam: 8th... | | |
| 2:26pm | GA Geijutsuka Art Design Class - 06 | | | | This show is schizophrenic! It may be called GA Art Design Club, but if it weren’t for that name you’d hardly guess that the main characters are indeed those five girls of the Art Design Club. This episode again was about the other art club, in which they turn their clubroom into a haunted... | | |
| 3:53pm | GA Geijutsuka Art Design Class 02 – Pencil Of God | | | | It is said that the surest sign of a dead online endeavour is an excuse about how things are so busy in Real Life and I'll promise to update it as soon as I can, really, no problems about that, just need to find the time so on and so forth. In many cases when | | |
| 8:46pm | GA - Geijutsuka Art Design Class - Episode 2 | | | | After rather a hefty gap, it's finally time to take a look at the second episode of GA - Geijutsuka Art Design Class, although to be honest not all that much has changed from my thoughts on the first instalment really.Having said that, this episode does seem happier to spend a little more time setting... | | |
