I'm not sure if I like the Ami end. Honestly, I didn't understand it.
Otherwise, great show for a romcom. I think... I completely lost my bearings in the post-Nanoha age. I see the quality, but I don't have the gut feel for it.
Liked: Yeeees
Rewatch: Maybe, although …
It's somewhat different view than Hashi-hime's, because of knowledge of the original source, from the gamer roots and access to manga. I have no foggiest idea if Jump is any "less abhorrent" than anything.
Unlike Aroduc, I don't think that "newbie director" is necesserily bad. RahXephon had a newbie director …

UPDATE: Chris e-mails to point out that a) Neeba possibly only spent special …

Went back to watch some Fate/Stay Night out of the box I'd picked up a while back, and... I'm kind of disappointed. Not in the show (seen it already), but in the subtitling job, or the authoring job, or both …read more
J.P. twittered a link just now, where Moogy talks about the succession issue in regards to currently running Sora wo Kakeru Shoujo. I only watched some 3 minutes of ep.1 of it, and I'm considering if I should continue. So, the post was quite informative (as far as …
