1. Sekirei ends, somewhat

    As everyone already knows, Sekirei does not really end, but rather pulls a Vandread on us. Unfortunately, unlike Vandread, Sekirei is based on a nearly endless manga, which it follows slavishly, not quite unlike Naruto.

    Somehwat surpisingly, this is the first show of the season that I completed. Sorry, Miss …

  2. Kurogane on Gurren-Lagann Parallel Works

    Kuro's post about the latest GLPW mentions how "Lord Genome's resemblance to Nia when he was young is a bit disturbing to say at least." This reminds me about an unpublished post of mine, which ran:

    I pooh-pooed the GLPW as a bunch of amusing, but derivative videos until I …

  3. Oh Edo Rocket

    While waiting for the next batch of DVDs to arrive (actually, the Saturday order is not even fulfilled... Monday spike at RACS?), I watched a bit of Oh Edo Rocket. Don was instrumental in attracting my attention to it. The show is very nicely offbeat. I especially appreciated the nipponisms …

    Hige vs Otaku:

  5. Mahou Shoujo

    I just noticed it now when Pink Sylphide updated, although apparently Crisu started the chain.

    Interestingly, Christopher prefers teaching by example, whereas just about anyone else I know would reflexively start from trying to categorize or list attributes (Transformation Sequence, Secret Identity, Magical Animal Companion, etc.) But for the expert …

  6. TJ on the Summer 2008

    TJ and his master baiting. What would the anime blogging be without them?

    Anyway, anyone who watches and enjoys that whatever Nogizaka show deserves to be castrated.

    Mental note: Nogizaka must be awesome to tick TJ (also, Omo liked it).

    On a more serious note, TJ's pretentions to discuss the …

  7. Sekirei overload

    I've seen Sekirei 07, where they started to kill each other in earnest, and decided that I had enough of that HiMEtardity. Musubi's idiotic pact with Karasuba was the final drop in the cup. So the plan was to let Karasuba kill everyone (or at least half) and then see …
