I’m much more satisfied with the filler this season, probably because I’m less satisfied with the plot that it deviates from. Upon watching this episode a second time, I’m finding more and more of it to be rather hilarious in its own right.
Shirley’s jealousy throughout the episode was the main point of amusement for me, [...]

I have just finished re-watching Last Exile and, I’ve been wondering what it was like for fans of the show in 2003. Did they look at the future of Gonzo with high expectations? Were they impressed with what the studio had put out so far? If so, I feel so sorry for those poor bastards. [...]

Fanservice and lulz are back with a vengeance! And so are the parallels with the first season, though I haven’t cared enough to follow them episode to episode. There are so many things to keep up with in this series that I can’t be buggered to try anymore.
So Sayoko is Lulu v2, and she’s getting [...]

I think I’m going to rant this time. We’ll take a temporary hiatus from the bad jokes and plot summaries, mainly because I just finished reading Transmetropolitan and I’m in the mood to spit on your mothers and kick your puppies.

Episode 9: Lelouch doesn’t know how to play Chess
Schneizel putting himself in check is one thing, calling “Checkmate” after doing so is another thing, and then having Lulu continue the match as though that move isn’t flagrantly illegal is something else entirely. I thought chess was some big analogy in this series, so what are [...]

I went into my local comic store with every intention of laying down 30-60 dollars on the first few volumes of Wounded Man, and after reading the scene where the main character has a woman piss in his eyes to clear them of blood so that he can hit some guy with the tree (yes, [...]

I’m behind on everything because of Touhou, but I’m trying to keep up.
Currently Up-to-Date
Chi’s Sweet Home: This remains delightful, and it’s easy to keep up with. I figured I’d just be watching it for the cat, but Dad and the pet store lady are really fun to watch. Only 70 more episodes to go :3
