| 10:41am | Shigofumi: Episode 2 | ![zeNIME [z for aNIME~] zeNIME [z for aNIME~]](/images/icons/blogs/zenime_z_for_anime.png) | | | This episode resolves the shocking end of the first episode. We learn about Ayase’s motivation for killing, and her reaction to the Shigofumi she receives from Shouta. A very dramatic ending to this mini arc, and hopefully a preview of the greatness to expect from the rest of this series.Rating:... | | |
| 2:32am | Shigofumi - 08 |  | | | Recently, some concerns about the shift in focus in this show have been brought up. All of these concerns can easily be addressed, however, by the main premises of the series. This would of course be.boku boku boku boku boku boku boku boku. | | |

| 12:37am | Winter Season Checkpoint | | | | We’re well past to midpoint of the Winter 07-08 anime season and since it’s Friday and there’s no Clannad to post about, I figured I might as well try out one of these mid-season impression things, a brief on my impressions on some of this season’s offerings and carry overs from... | | |

| 4:42am | How NOT To Stop Bullying, Lesson One | | | | Do not stab bully with a screwdriver. This is counterproductive. I feel very, very unclean right now. I think I need to have a mini-Passover or something. I didn’t think Shigofumi would be able to top the second episode’s father-selling-daughters-for-s ex-and-money revelation, or would... | | |
| 7:07pm | In My View: Why Bandai Visual concerns me | | | | (This is my slightly less informed opinion based on this post and thesecomments.) Ahhh… Bandai Visual, you crazy, crazy company. To be fair, I haven't really spent a whole lot of time thinking about Bandai Visual. True tears and Shigofumi haven't really been on my radar much. Not because I hate the... | | |
| 6:15am | Shigofumi ep. 5 |  | | | [ Episode 5: I’m Home ]This was a nice change to the previous episodes that dealt with serious cases. Just like I thought in the previous episode, Fumika and Chiaki get to work together! Though the delivery is really odd since the recipient is a cat and, well, cats can’t exactly talk or read... | | |
| 6:08am | Shigofumi 7 - Glass-Half-Empty | | | | This episode of Shigofumi is an improvement over the last one, which felt hasty and disjointed, but it still isn’t a return to the intensity and quality of the first few episodes. Despite delivering the largest dose of development to the ongoing plot, wading deeper into the mystery of Fumika’s... | | |
| 4:10pm | Shigofumi ep. 4 |  | | | [ Episode 4: Tears ]Yet another great episode of Shigofumi. Man, I just can’t stop loving this show. Fumika, despite not being exactly talkative, is one of the best female characters of the season. I’m quite interested her in past but I’ll come back to that. The central characters of... | | |
| 3:18pm | Shigofumi ep. 3 |  | | | [ Episode 3: Friends ]This episode deals with the delicate issue of suicide. I didn’t particularly look for the alteration that was made to this episode but it was enjoyable nonetheless. Maybe it’s just me but I found Sen’s shigofumi to be hilarious for some reason. I mean really, he... | | |

| 12:30pm | Shigofumi (Letter from the Departed) | | | | Shigofumi, one of my favorites this year. Behind Gundam 00 and True Tears. For one, i think that this series is a very meaningful one. It talks about our everyday life and what people regreted not doing when they were alive or regreted what they did. Anyways, after watching this series, it's like telling... | | |
| 4:04am | First, we put Fumika in a box. Then, we set a vial of poison in the box… | | | | Then, we set the vial of poison to open if a certain sort of atom decays in the next hour. Is the Fumika alive or dead when you open the box? Can you even tell? That seems to be the question posed in Shigofumi 5, wherein a deeper plot concerning the shadowy origins of Fumika are revealed, by the boy... | | |
