I love ABe

I finished Lain last week but found it hard to think of anything to say. I loved the character design and practically every other visual aspect of the show. The way the story played out was extremely captivating, though the viewer probably shares Lain’s frustration at the constant bombardment of new and confusing ideas and [...]

I never use the Categories, so I’m narrowing that list down and using a tag cloud over to the right instead. Nothing wrong with a little organization. In other news, Shakugan no Shana started up again with a decent episode, so maybe they’ll keep that up.
And an edit: Apparently only so many tags can fit [...]
