The Impz's right hand man posted a longish review of iDOLM@STER Xenoglossia, which neatly explains just why I was right to drop it after ep.8. I think I got the best part: Haruka's cuteness, the excitement of iDOL launch, and the pretty animation. Yuri and action/detective do …

Good news: Rie Tanaka receives some lines. Bad news: most of the rest.
Notes:
- "You are I are in the navy, so you don't have to call me Major" -- "Sakamoto-san" seems to be good enough. Kinky Japanese.
- Wilke seems to take the need to herd cats in stride, but I …
J.P.Meyer on reset endings
Seen at Minaide Hazukashii:
While reading Stripey’s post (and the comments) on rewatching My-Hime, the inevitable discussion popped up: what’s the deal with the ending? [...] The debate basically boils down to one of two sides: either the ending sucks because it’s a reset ending or it’s …

I promoted the same idea for a while (there was a post a year ago), but there was always an element of a white lie to it. My efforts were not systematic, and result was not very satisfactory. Evirus jumps into the pool completely.

Hinano writes that Rie Tanaka is coming to NYAF. I think it's a big news. Although we have new (relatively) people coming up all the time (for example Aya Hirano), Mrs. Tanaka is one of the very few seyuu who I even bother to remember. She has a place in …

I should have added these to the previous post, but I lost the piece of paper with them. Yes, I'm that senile. Consider this a ploy to up the post count.
- Sakamoto's uniform is buttoned on the "male" side, which is probably logical for Japan. I heard the yukatas has …
The Pink Sylphide on Druaga
With the Eva streak happily over, The Pink Sylphide turns towards Druaga, The Tower Of. The entry lacks screencaps, but it should be easy to fix...
The more lines Ahmey speaks, the better she’s revealed to be as a character. She’s the experienced one, even if she’s …

Even more awesome... to balance the badassery... this red headed Annie Oakley of a dark tomorrow seems level headed, smart and... shockingly... out and out pleasant!!
I don't know who Annie Oakley is, but I laughed.
UPDATE: Chizumatic provides the necessary information about Annie Oakley.

For an anime I'm supposedly dropping, I pay too much attention to Strike Witches. I'm not alone though. Whatever the fetish is, something caught a few imaginations in it. Check out the picture:
Google was unable to crack the "luftsieg", which I take a sign of being written in Gelman …
