The highlights are of course Canaan from the Type-Moon team, Umineko from Higurashi creators and SHAFT's second TV show this... | | |
| 11:41am | Valkyria Chronicles - 02 | | | | Short Synopsis: Alicia tries to use the tank to bring everyone to safety. Episode Rating: 7/10 (Enjoyable) I must admit that blogging this show is going to be a huge gamble. At this point, I myself am not yet convinced of this show, but first: about the series I’m not going to blog: - Slap... | | |
| 9:33pm | Manga In A Manga | | | | I heard you like manga, so I’ll put a manga in your manga, so you can read while you read.I think it’ll be interesting if the duo behind Bakuman ever decide to release a fanbook that will contain some of the manga series done by the various mangakas in the series. If the Kujibiki Unbalance... | | |
| 3:39pm | Getsumento To Heiki Mina | | | | Lunar Rabbit Weapon Mina AKA Getsumento Heiki Mina was a ficticious anime that was featured in the TV series Densha Otoko. And just like Kujibiki Unbalance, it was realized as a real anime series. As always, super nice characters from Okama, who seems to have a thing for girls and food | | |
| 10:57am | The post for the study of the adaptation of visual media | | | | Or just another post with scattered thoughts comparing the Genshiken manga and anime. Manga and anime spoilers abound. Fateful Encounter. In the manga, we were not shown how Saki and Kousaka met in university. The anime opened with her trying to pick him up but then having him recognize her as a childhood... | | |

Tastes differ, but the shows I myself am most looking forward to are:the mysterious moe romances ef - a tale of melodies and Clannad - After Story the absurd comedy Hyakko (with Orikasa Fumiko and Hirano... | | |
| 1:52am | One of the few gripes I have with Genshiken | | | | In the earlier volumes of Genshiken, there would always be writings by the various members of Genshiken pertaining to particular topics, and always under a psuedonym. They were always a fun window into each character, and early on it was interesting figuring who exactly was who. Ogiue never had a chance... | | |
| 3:53pm | Otakon 2008 - My annual pilgrimage to the East Coast’s Otaku Mecca |  | | | First Alphonse Elric I’ve ever seen = WIN. I am rather amused to admit that this past weekend (August 8th - 10th) taught me something very interesting about myself: three days with no Internet access and no way of checking THAT is enough to drive me up the wall. I really, truly adore you traps,... | | |

| 8:10pm | Kujibiki Unbalance v2 | | | | Sometimes I wonder about the collective opinion of “they”. According to that mass of nobody in particular, Kujibiki Unbalance pretty much sucks. Maybe they are right and most of the people who watch it will bleed from their eyes, but I don’t know, as blasphemous as it may sound, I... | | |
