9. To Heart video legend

   Anyone who has seen To Heart knows that video looks somewhat bleak. Fans also may know about the massive restoration effort. The nearest to the official story that I was able to find is located at the official website (100% flash — but the important catalog is available in PDF). Reprinted …

11. Hourglass ends

    In the end I marathoned the remainder of the damn thing in two days, since I leave for Tokyo tomorrow and I didn't want to leave Hourglass of Summer hanging. God that was long. The amazing part, by the way, is how the OVA lasts for 2 episodes only. I …

12. BEI licenses Rocket Girls

    My wildest dreams have come true (via — only found it through a backlink, because DiGiKerot's summary mentioned Geass and nothing else).

16. J.P.Meyer on Jubei-chan

    Looks like he liked it:

    Jubei-chan is a very Daichi-y anime. It has some spunky characters that get into slightly absurd comic situations (his sense of timing also greatly heightens the absurdity) with occasional flashes of serious business and occasional flashes of absurdist comedy during the serious business.

17. The Redundancy of Anime Notebook

    Actually this post is not about Ani-nouto in the same way Damien's post is about the technicalities of Moe Check. Instead, I just want to make a play on a play on a meme, in a post about a different but related meme: Kyonko. There is also a second play …
