Darker Than Black – Episode 22 · 1 September 2007

Just when I thought my internet patched itself up, it broke down again. My saviors go by the names ‘NETGEAR(1)’ and ‘tanuki’, providing me incredibly slow, but functunal internet service. I did manage to download the newest Darker Than Black episode before Roadrunner kicked the bucket, thank God for that. It was a busy episode […]

Just the last three episode titles of Darker than Black (a.k.a. the end of the world) · 29 August 2007

it’s just too cute, I can’t resist the absolute adorableness, squeee >.< I’ve gone about two weeks without a new Darker Than Black episode and it’s finally getting to me. I don’t even know why there was no episode last week, but it’s practically ruining my life right now. Have I told you I hate […]

The Girl Who Leapt Through Time · 28 August 2007

Saw bateszi’s post up this morning, one of those things where you read it about and you just have to see it. Waited all day for the torrent, worth the wait, worth the wait. For all the things I can say about the film, for all my praise and ravings and adoration, the best part […]

Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann – Episode 22 · 27 August 2007

Oh my god, oh my dear god, oh my god. Did you see that? Did you see that?! So, so, they basically transformed, or combined, into Arc-Gurren-Lagann, tour a hole through time-space and annihilated a mugan ship, and that was only half of the episode! HALF! I’m just a little bit stunned, okay, alright, not […]

Code Geass – The End? No, not really… · 27 August 2007

Well, I just finished Code Geass and for all the time (about nine hours or so) I invested in the first season, I was rewarded with a most despicable cliffhanger. I can understand Code Geass’ attraction, be it aesthetic or intellectual, but it lacks a certain depth, as if the characters and story were scratching […]

Gundam 00 – "Rebirth begins through destruction" · 24 August 2007

So, unable to finish writing my Planetes ramblings, I googled Gundam 00. Watched a bunch of trailers and teasers on YouTube and it’s looking pretty good. Interesting to note that it’s the only series, so far, in the AD timeline, following the Gregorian calender instead of being labeled After Colony or Universal Century. Three hundred […]

Claymore – Episode 21 · 23 August 2007

Claymore is finally getting pretty good. Actually, Claymore’s always been pretty good, even if the whole thing was about a bunch of skinny, blonde, silver-eyed, big sword wielding, demon slaying girls. Something strangely attractive about the premise and the story and the characters. It also doesn’t hurt that both Easley and Rigald, the only two […]

Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann – Episode 21 · 21 August 2007

Elated? Overjoyed? About to throw myself off a very tall building from sheer happiness and excitement? Yes! A thousand times yes! Recently, I’ve lost the will to blog about anything I’ve watched, including the entirety of Planetes and the latest episodes of Baccano!, Darker Than Black and Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei, Gurren Lagann has just resurrected […]

Yoko's Rifle · 16 August 2007

This is from my old blog, dated July 1st, 2007, thought I’d move it over because it was amusing. Yoko Get Your Gun We all know the red haired heroine of what is turning out to be my favorite show running right now touts a large sniper rifle everywhere and is a damn fine marksmen […]

Wolf's Rain – The End · 13 August 2007

Wolf’s Rain reminded me a bit of Bebop, which wasn’t surprising looking at the people who worked on both. Though I still prefer the light-hearted and incredibly sentimental nature of Bebop, there’s something altogether different about Wolf’s Rain. It’s a modern day legend, a fairytale of sorts, a gray and bleak world where a new […]
