9. Zyl on Gurren-Lagann

   If you care about Gurren-Lagann, read Zyl's post now.

   BTW:

   The marathon almost ground to a halt early on though. I tend to be quick to judge and eager to give up; Kamina’s machismo and Simon’s I MUSTN’T RUN AWAY fits made me want to run away …

10. Famous NHK clips from TAF

    (via) The NHK clips I've seen looping in their booth at TAF are on Youtube now and someone posted a collection. Quite cool, although I hope someone else posts them elsewhere. Solely relying on spyfish80 is fraught with peril (seen at Niko-niko, too). Also: Dear NHK, please sell us a …

11. Gravion

    I survived 2 episodes. Gravion surprised me with its poor form. I'm just not used to watching anything this retarded.

    

    Futakoi was dumb in the plot and character relationships, but this is worse: incompetent across the board.

    At least I didn't buy it like Steven did. Thank you, Netflix.

    UPDATE …

12. Rage of Sasa's cobloggers

    Without extra ado, here goes an opinion on Bus Gamer:

    This show has horrible animation -- Gonzo, how low you’ve fallen, having to animate this stupid story --, the character designs are ugly, and not a single hole has been closed. Usually first episodes are the best because that’s the …

13. Dwane Day reviews what again?

    It things continue the same way, this is going to be a fixture at Ani-nouto. In the latest installment, Dwane reviews Moonlight Mile, a series even more solidly forgotten than his previous find, Freedom (which is currently being hyped by its producers at least).

    The executive summary is "do not …

14. Owen on Itakiss

    At Omaemo (hopefully it will stop migrate and rename for a month at least and so the link remain valid):

    Itazura na Kiss was, despite its appearances, epic enough to surpass Special A in every department bar character design, and even that didn’t matter as much, all things considered …

15. Astro on Real Drive

    Astro said: "My early judgement is that Real Drive is going to be a winner", then added: "I’m really digging this show - my initial impressions were on the mark it seems. [...] most of my pleasure is derived from the unique character designs and impressive musical score." However, he likes …

16. Robert on ADV and Gurren-Lagann

    As seen at Robert's (who is the "R" in RACS and thus plugs into "the industry"):

    There is also a lot of speculation around the web that ADV simply lost the R1 license and Bandai then jumped on it. This is certainly plausible, however, I would forward another theory. Perhaps …

17. Bandai Entertainment off the rails

    They continue to play with the website. Now it displays a black page saying "GiTS 2004", and the following Google text ad:

    

    I swear, this is not a doctored image.

    The ads Google selected seem quite curious too:

    • Downloads from dot-anime.us. I only knew about that site as the …

18. DiGiKerot on Gurren-Lagann's release

    Seen at Beta-Waffle:

    A lot of the Bandai Entertainment news from NYCC was really surprising. Not just the Gurren Lagann thing, as astonishing at that was, but the talk of their release patterns. Whilst being sub-only (and I know a lot of the dub community are rather disappointed about the …
