A third season of Gyagu Manga Biyori is quickly approaching. Sadly, the second season was never fully subbed, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see the new season suffer the same fate. As is rather obvious from the title, Gyagu Manga is a gag show that reminds me a good deal of other shows I’ve [...]

Spring Season ‘08. Watching everything that isn’t awful
Posted in Anime on February 24, 2008 | 6 Comments »
This is the season of pretty boys apparently. There were about 10 more shows I was considering watching before I saw the character designs and couldn’t tell the guys from the girls. Again this season, I’ll be checking out a great deal, and then picking up other things later on recommendation.
A complete list with dates [...]
12 Kingdoms, School Days, and Kino: The Good, the bad, and the beautiful
Posted in Anime, tagged Kino no Tabi, School Days on February 18, 2008 | 7 Comments »
I have no excuse for the delay in posting, as I could’ve updated awhile ago, when I finished the first two of these series. I was pressured into giving 12 Kingdoms a shot, and I finally decided to watch School Days because it was supposed to be laughable. I wasn’t overly impressed on either front.
12 [...]
Mnemosyne: Beautiful, Brutal, Badass
Posted in Anime, tagged Mnemosyne on February 12, 2008 | 7 Comments »
I remember this Mitch Hedberg line where he said he used the word “totally” too often. I think for me, the word is “badass,” but when I watch things like Mnemosyne, I can’t help but blurt it out naturally. With a monthly release schedule, I’m going to probably forget all about it between episodes, much [...]

Authored by the mind behind Minami-ke, Kyou no Go no Ni is a four episode OVA about a couple of fifth graders, mainly Ryota, a boy who is haplessly caught in one bad situation after another. Or should I say, one good situation after another. :3
A summary in pictures.
It’s like Colorful, but with 5th [...]

It’s the time of year that inspires me to go out and watch a wider range of series, yes, it’s the time of the Anime Grand Prix over at Megatokyo Forums. A time not only spent on pushing your favorite characters to win by image spamming and the like, but also to take note of [...]
My favorite 10 anime songs of 2007/08
Posted in Anime, Personal on February 5, 2008 | 6 Comments »
So I know someone who said they were going to do a top ten songs of 2007 but hasn’t gotten around to it, and I just ended up wanting to do something similar myself. Note: this list will be mainly composed of songs sung by cute girls, and not very diverse. Tell me if you [...]
February Anime

I’m keeping up with more shows at one time than I ever have before. Most of them are either sequels or shows that are stilling running from previous seasons.
The winter season has been relatively disappointing.
Aria the Origination – Needs more Athena.
Bamboo Blade – Subs are slow so I often forget what’s going on when the [...]
