1. 53RG10 on Kiminozo OVA

    In one of the weirder twists into which creators twist themselves for the advancement of franchize milking, Rumbling Hearts had an OVA. At least, unlike Manabi OVA, this one is a continuation instead of a filler driven into a hairline crack between TV episodes.

    I really wanted to like Kiminozo …

  2. Bottle Fairy

    After more than a year-long wait, I gave up on Netflix and watched Bottle Fairy on YouTube. It feels absorbing a lot from other series beyond the intentional parody. Most of the time it was like Hidamari Sketch, although it's not from SHAFT.

    The biggest question is, was Steven right …

  3. Roast on Cobra OAV; Action Anime

    Pork Cutlets rues the victory of fanservice:

    I’m here to ask, why are the good mindless action shows so underappreciated? Why don’t they dominate the damn market? Why aren’t new ones being produced every season? Why isn’t Golgo getting subbed for the love of god? These …

  4. Sekirei Drama CD cast

    Sekirei was a fun little series that opened nicely. I was re-reading my category for it just now [1], followed links, and suddenly noticed that Steven mentioned a different cast for the Drama CD. I don't have the old CD (it was long out of stock by the time I …

  5. Kaphillca on Eroge adaptations

    I am singling out Kaphillica here, but the eroge stigma is as widespread and as silly as mecha stigma, so this is only a sample:

    Despite being an eroge adaptation [true tears] is so much different from the rest. Apart from Kyoto animation adaptations of Key games like CLANNAD which …

  6. CJ on Funi's spree

    B.H.:

    Since some of the shows were older and had already been fully released, it’s safe to assume that anyone who cared about those shows had already picked them up.

    As commenters have already pointed out, some might want boxsets, for example as gifts. Also, as SDB mentioned …

  7. Evirus on Nodame Paris-hen

    The article at Karmaburn does a good job at forming the correct set of mind:

    Others offered some complaints about Nodame Paris, mostly regarding the new characters (and absence of old ones) and the look of the 3D orchestra. These issues don’t bother me because my primary interests surround …

  8. Hanners on Telapathy Shoujo Ran

    In the spirit of saving readers from watching bad shows, here are lengthy quotes from Hanners:

    Anyhow, this final episode takes us to a final battle between animals (or rather, humans turned into animals) and humans, and as a result Momoko versus Ran and Midori - A battle that the latter …

  9. Twits on White Album

    Bluemist: Wow, White Album is like a hybrid visual novel anime, character thoughts popping out in text on-screen. Interesting, if well executed.
    Hinano: White Album is the shittiest shit that [was] ever shat out of a butt.
    Totali: I bet White Album actually turns out to be awesome …
