Who would fardels bear,
To grunt and sweat under a weary life,
But that the dread of something after death,
The undiscovered country from whose bourn
No traveller returns, puzzles the will,
And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Than fly to others that we know not of?
Thus conscience does make cowards of us all… – Hamlet

I hate you, Wildarmsheero
Posted in Anime on January 21, 2009 | 13 Comments »
No, seriously. I hate you. I used to respect you, but not anymore. You tried to tell me you were black like TheBigN, but that was a horrible lie. You failed me. I hate your hair.
I owe a lot of my fandom to Wildarmsheero. Back when I was a noob on Megatokyo Forums, I made [...]
Belated Final Impressions: Kannagi, Kurozuka, Hyakko
Posted in Anime on January 20, 2009 | 6 Comments »
I’ve finished up a few series, but my total backlog on current shows is still around 35-40 episodes ;_; Thank god I’m watching almost nothing from the winter season, and by almost nothing I mean like 6 or 7 series, which is only half of what I picked up last season. But enough about that, [...]
Kurokami – Anyone else hate this?
Posted in Anime on January 14, 2009 | 14 Comments »
Can someone please point me in the direction of some good posts on the first episode of Kurokami? And by good, I mean anyone who agrees that it’s absolute garbage. I did some quick browsing, and all I saw were people who were mildly impressed with it or actually entertained by it, so I’m clearly [...]
No more episodic blogging for me
Posted in Boring stuff, Personal on January 12, 2009 | 7 Comments »
If anyone actually read and enjoyed my Casshern’s Sins posts, I’m sorry, but I’m not going to be blogging it anymore. Frankly, I hate episodic blogging. When I blogged Code Geass, I did it for 3 reasons:
1. An experiment in trying something new.
2. To do something fun, and for the first half of the series, [...]
Obligatory 2008 post
Posted in Boring stuff on January 9, 2009 | 10 Comments »
Oh, 2008. Another year goes by and I still haven’t seen Spirited Away.
I started 2007 by listing some numbers, so let’s do that again.
Pre 2008: 82 TV series (in the middle of 13 more), 25 OVA, 33 movies
Post 2008: 139 TV series (watching 10), 44 OVA (watching 3), and 41 movies
Neither of these lists count [...]
My favorite 10 Anime Songs of 2008
Posted in Personal on January 7, 2009 | 6 Comments »
Hey! This year’s post isn’t all songs sung by little girls, so maybe people will actually agree with me on some of these picks.
10. Seikan Hikou & What ’bout my Star – Nakajima Megumi (Ranka Lee) – Off the Macross Frontier OSTs
Macross Frontier had a ton of good songs. I figured I’d put one of [...]
Something off about Minami-ke Okaeri
Posted in Anime on January 6, 2009 | 8 Comments »
There’s something off about the latest season of Minami-ke, but I just can’t put my finger on it. The humor is what I’ve come to expect out of the series, and while the first episode was lacking in Mako-chan, it made up for it by ending with another incredible Hosaka scene. The jokes weren’t the [...]
White Album First Impressions and a Bad Pun or Two
Posted in Anime, tagged white album on January 5, 2009 | 4 Comments »
This will be my third new series of the season. Akikan was godawful, and surprisingly enough, I’m on the fence about Maria†Holic. We’ll see how things turn out.
Ok, on to White Album, which had a pretty good first episode. As I’ve heard mentioned by a few other people, the male lead is rather flat at [...]
My last post has already been said better-or-I miss the 80’s.
Posted in Boring stuff on January 5, 2009 | 2 Comments »
I’m terrible about reading other anime blogs, so I usually follow a trail of links until I hit something good, and this time the trail was rather short. I went from my referral page to this post on ani-nouto, and from there to this post on Tenka Seiha. You can completely ignore the latter post [...]
