| 4:13am | Minami-ke Okaeri Episode 1 | | | | Hey, Noperative here! This is my first time here on the Anime MMOG (AnimeFTW to me) so I won't be going too ambitious and covering some super popular series. The anime I'll be covering is the 3rd season of the Minami-ke series:Minami-ke Okaeri. Now I'm assuming you haven't seen the previous seasons,... | | |
| 2:54am | Higurashi should have more dead people | | | | HEY, SLEEPING IS N-- eh, dude, you listening? O_OI’ll admit that I don’t watch a lot of psychological shows. Higurashi was an exception just because my friends and many others said it was a kickass Anime. And to their truth it was indeed a kickass Anime. The only thing that saddened me was... | | |

| 4:07pm | Anime Credits – School Days ED3 | | | | I posted the first ED way, way long ago, and I had kept this in reserve so long that I figured I just as well go ahead and post it eventually. I think it’s probably my favorite of the many EDs for School Days. | | |
| 12:23am | School Days Review | | | | Curiosity got the better of me and I watched this series entirely to see "what the big deal was", since it was such a controversial topic. Since I've read various things about the series in blogs and such, I already knew the basic aspects of it including what sort of | | |
| 2:51pm | Sora Kake Girl Blu-ray #4 | | | | It’s taken a few weeks, but the Royal Mails customs processing staff have finally released my Japanese media order for the month, admittedly along with a fairly significant customs charge in tow. Given how long, thin and three-times-the-size of the disks I ordered the box was, I guess it’s... | | |
| 2:00am | Sora no Manimani 4 - Starcross’d |  | | | Is this the hinge episode, where all anime comedies start transitioning to becoming More Serious? Sora no Manimani is this season’s sleeper show. Aside from a burst of initial fangirling, there hasn’t been much written about it on the blogosphere; for the most part, it’s because the... | | |
| 3:04pm | A Yuri Storyline classification System – Part 4 | | | | 1. Chase/Getting together storylinesD. Storylines where two girls meet and fall in love Ah, the romantic category. The least dramatic, but perhaps the most realistic and most touching. In my humble opinion, the best way this is approached is when the mangaka completely ignores the fact that they are... | | |
| 7:07am | Haruhi Suzumiya: Feeling SHAFTed yet? | | | | The hour of victory is near it’s up to you to seize it. Victory is almost theirs. They can taste it. That boiling blood of the fanbase. Certainly Kyoto Animation and Kadokawa have stretched the majority of Haruhi fans almost to their breaking point with their 5th iteration of Endless Eight;... | | |
| 9:03pm | Ruminations on Harem Anime, Part 1: Responsibility | | | | I’ve been doing some thinking about the concept and tropes of harem anime recently. Here is Part 1 out of I don’t know how many parts but expect at least one more. Today’s topic is the concept of responsibility in harem anime. The basic concept of a harem show is that it involves... | | |
| 9:33pm | Ask Yourself: Is That Really A Harem? |  | | | I believe in parallel dating From Baka-Raptor: I have a strict, classical view of the harem anime—the only view that makes any sense. If you think a harem requires nothing more than at least three girls chasing one guy, you’re missing the point. A harem is much more than a three-girl quota; several... | | |
| 1:52pm | SFIV Sakura Aftermatch Trailer | | | | Seems CAPCOM has released a new trailer for Street Fighter IV (SFIV) detailing events after SFII featuring our young spunky character Sakura. In this trailer she faces off Zangeif and it goes into a little bit of her back-story of her school days with her classmates and her instructor Dan who provides... | | |
| 9:12pm | Memory Quilt: Fushigi Yugi: The Mysterious Play |  | | | Another anime from my middle school days, Fushigi Yugi: The Mysterious Play I loved this anime in 7th grade, I was obsessed with the character Chichiri, and my friends and I would talk about it constantly. I actually wanted to make the patch Chichiri, but I couldn’t find a Chichiri picture I... | | |
| 12:52am | Genius Party | | | | Japan has a lot of good talent working in animation. Most people just don't know it, because without knowing what you're looking for, it's hard to locate the good work amongst the flood of productions released every year. In Japan, as anywhere, the nature of this talent is multifaceted. The focus of... | | |
| 8:59pm | Hanayashiki no Junin-tachi Manga, Volume 2 | | | | Ah, the dramatic love triangle. What would we do without you for tired, retread, yet eternally fascinating drama. I love you, but you love him and he loves me. It's been done so many times it's almost not funny. But, add in a drenching cold rain, a deathly fever and a psychotic cross-dressing brother... | | |
