1. New Game

    The New Game is a CGDCT, no more, no less. Only now the action is set not in a school club, but in a workplace. To keep the desired effect running, the show plays with the infantilism a bit, even up to office workers discussing if this or that coworker …

  2. Interviews With Monster Girls is actually

    Demi-chan wa Kataritai anime? Why, I would've never guessed. From the headlines, I thought it was some kind of knock-off for Everyday Life With Monster Girls. The English title was apparently invented in the bowels of Kodansha.

    The Demi-chan manga is rather cute, mostly. The detectives were terrible, and I …

  3. Running manga

    Recently, I found myself reading manga quite a bit, and possibly at the expnse of the anime. Most of it is rather so-so, but I found 3 series available online that are worth reading raw.

    #1 is Oshiete Galko-chan. It was featured at Ani-nouto previously, and although officially it comes …

  4. Usagi Drop ends

    Let's stick to basics in this one.

  5. Digibro on character design of Gurren-Lagann

  6. Omo on Girlish Number

    Gotta snipe this bit of a longer post:

    Which is also to say, Girlish Number takes a rather cynical and unfortunate example. If things were like this from the beginning this industry would not have blossomed like it did today.

    This recalls very much in my mind Yano's observation about …

  7. The Behind on Euphonium

    The Behind of the Nihon Review posted a usual season summary, where a couple of grafs caught my eye. In particuar, the second opinion by a staff blogger Reckoner:

    Euphonium’s second season has yet to truly justify its own existence. Now that Kumiko and the concert band have made …

  8. Kuro on Vivid Strike

    Kuro tweets:

    In other news, Twitter killed animeblogging and then suicided. GAB is far too politicized. I suppose I'll keep the GNU/Smug.loli thing going for now. It's not like I have many years left to play with it. At least that one provides an RSS feed.
