1. Orion and Guff on FMA

    A blog that was dead since last year suddenly came to life and produced a post on FMA Brotherhood 01, of all things. The power of alchemy!

    Apparently, Hughes is alive and well for some reason. So, must be a remake. Also:

    The most interesting of the new cast is …

  2. Naruto Shippuuden 101

    Checked out the contemporary Naruto, found that it stacks well against the vintage one. I hit a rather sedate episode though.

    In some sequences, it's noticeable that animators save on line drawing and compensate with fluid movements. Aroduc highlighted this issue (alongside comically deformed hands) in his review of K-ON …

  3. Poor Ashakura and Achakura

    Not sure if I came to hate anime in general like Charles Solomon, or I'm getting tired of the same joke chewed over and ower, but this does not amuse me.

    At least Churuya received some smoked cheese this week.

    UPDATE: Jaalin says:

    The sheer amount of emotional trauma these …

  4. SZS OAD

    At the meeting a week ago, I caught a two-part DVD special Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei, which in better times would've been called "OAV". Weird stuff. It seems like humour for the sake humour, and a very heavy-handed presentation at that. So, not my cup of tea. On the upside, I …

  5. SDS on Toradora

    Why is it that three quarters of bloggers summarizing Toradora think it necessary to engage into tedious retelling? Even a refined blogger like SDS does it, and the advocacy suffers a great deal as a result. Tell us what you think about the show, we can read synopsys at Wikipedia …

  6. It's more than 48 in this Spring

    Remember how Hashi-hime listed 48 new shows? Today Moero Amazon opens Cooking Idol Aoi! Mai! Main!. Cabbage! Cabbage! Raechel Ray, eat your heart out! The series appears not to be listed. Hashi, why do you hate Chisa Yokoyama? Also, how many more are there left below the radar?

    UPDATE: Mattew …

    Big guns really come out today for Toradora. Here's Bateszi's take:

    Then we have Toradora. I watched the final four episodes this morning and not expecting much at all, I was surprised by the impact it wrought on me. I’ve been back and forth with my opinion of Toradora …

  8. Stripey on Toradora

    The first graf is this:

    After marathoning Toradora over the weekend, I finally understood what the fuss/buzz was all about. It is indeed a superb series - one of the best anime romances I have seen. Melding great writing, intriguing characters and focused storytelling, Toradora has been a truly memorable …
