The Beginning – Strike Witches, Natsume Yunjinchou, Yakushiji Ryouko no Kaiki Jikenbo first impressions… · 13 July 2008
Strike Witches: Little girls without pants are terrifying… Alright, I didn’t want to watch Strike Witches. The trailer made me cringe and poke my eyes out with toothpicks. I can’t handle the little girls without pants! I can’t! I can’t! Give me blood, death, gore, anything but the cute, prepubescent lolis without pants! I mean, […]
A little bit of Soul Eater, a lot of Darker Than Black and why I love BONES… · 27 May 2008
Soul Eater, so it seems, is the only show this season that’s inspiring me to write anything. Granted, it’s really the only thing I’m keeping up with, but every episode just leaves me with the urge to impart on the world my two minutes of random commentary. For starters, can I just say how much […]
Soul Eater – 06, Awesome Kid! Awesome cannons! · 18 May 2008
Most people hate the Michael Bay FiOS Commercial. I’m actually quite fond of it. It’s Michael Bay making fun of himself (Awesome!), which gets ridiculously annoying after a while (Awesome!) and then stuff blows up (Awesome!). Soul Eater, is, for better or for worse, Michael Bay awesome. Hopefully, it won’t get ridiculously annoying after a […]
Springs impressions! You're all probably sick of them by now… · 27 April 2008
Alright, so, I think I’ve watched almost everything I wanted to watch this season. I have to say that I’m watching more shows this season than any other season since I’ve started blogging, which is not saying much, but just means I bit off way too much than I can chew. So, in a very […]
Baseball, Greek goddesses and Valentine's, among other things… · 17 February 2008
I’ve been sitting around trying to figure out a good way to talk about Ookiku Furikabutte for a while, but I can’t. Nothing I say seems to be right and the more I write the more dissatisfied I become with my words. So, going to back to my second grade English class, keepin’ it simple: […]
Everything, and I mean everything… · 29 January 2008
Warning: Long Post Ahead Behold! My long awaited return to blogging! I kid. Anyway… I finally got around to watching Mononoke, which, I have to say was an exceptionally brilliant piece of art, not just anime, but art. When you have a show like Mononoke floating in the same patch of ocean as ef, the […]
Dragonaut – Episode 3 · 20 October 2007
Dragonaut just got really interesting, indecently interesting. The show has a pretty weird, pretty amazing, pretty strange concept: people riding dragons. So, these Dragonaut guys are psuedo-military people riding dragons like gundams, but it’s really more like RahXephon or even Evangelion because they have this connection with their dragons. In fact, their dragons are actually […]
The 'gem' of the fall season? · 18 October 2007
It’s been a while, not a very long while, just a while. First marking period ends this Friday and it’s getting a bit harry, tests, grades, projects, parent teacher conferences and all that jazz. And, my forensics’s season started and the novices are doing better than me. That’s a problem right there. Anyways, I finally […]
Dragonaut – The Beginning · 7 October 2007
The first episode I watched of the fall season was, fortunately, rather good. I’m sure screen shots and summaries are not in short supply, so I’ll save myself the trouble. In short, Dragonaut – The Resonance is looking like the spawn of Code Geass and RahXephon armed with the tragic, orphaned hero, sunny, blue skies, […]
Tokyo Majin Gakuen Kenpucho: Tou 2nd Act – Episode 1 · 5 September 2007
This title has got to be the longest name for anything I’ve seen in the while, save for maybe Harry Potter. Even the acronym would be pretty long, TMGK:T2A. I watched the first season on a whim late one night earlier in the summer, the character designs, namely Hii-chan, caught my attention. It was also […]
