There's another trailer (h/t Chris Beveridge). Not much new from PV(1). The chipmunk girl is still missing.
read moreNazo no Kanojo X 01
For some reason, the one thing that got stuck in my mind about Mysterious Gf X was Otou's initial reaction (on Twitter, quoting approximately from memory): "icky trappings aside, it's just a bad relationship, man". He later completely recanted, so it's not even the truth, but it kept the …
read moreJason Miao on Nichijou
Calling Nichijou a moe anime is like calling a pug a cat. Nichijou is troll anime: it’s about the best of friends trolling each other.
A good analogy (and not a sports one, natch). I think there was more to it, as KyotoAni persistently tried to demonstrate …
read moreMirai Millenium
I did not realize that Mirai Millenium was actually a thing. Glad that the failure of Chinka did not discourage him. The picture above is from a pilot trailer. We know that not every pilot makes it to full production, but still, it's encouraging.

The Animenation John made the following remark in his reblog of 2nd season announcement:
The first anime series ended abruptly without any resolution or climax.
Now I'm mad. I hate when this happens, and nobody who recommended Chihayafuru bothered to mention it to me.
Although, in truth, I should not …

I was shuffling some old notes today. As you may notice from pad-anime.txt.diff, large chunks of notes periodically disappear (they are marked with "-" and colored brown). That means they go to an private archive. So, today, I moved a couple of links to make the pad more readable …
read moreOne-color School
The three-color system is so pervasive, that now I notice exceptions. So far there's only one: Ousai Academy of S.Y.D.. Pictured: Mitsuba, who is a year off the other members, if I understand it right. I may be wrong about her in particular, but there aren't any diffierent …
read moreSchneider on AKB0048
The AKB0048 landed in my queue after Kuro shared the picture of goddamn assault mikesaber. But until now I found nothing rebloggable... Except Nova's tryptich, perhaps:
What I watched: AKB0048. What I expected: Idolm@ster Space Edition. What I got: STALINGRAD.
The force with which it hit Nobar was rather …
read moreThe Other Meta
I was rewatching Sunred just now, and I thought that the voice of Miki, a colorful side character in ep.44, sounded familiar.
The show's page at ANN was useless, but fortunately the titles are easy to read: it was Sakura Nogawa. For a moment I imagined it could be …
read moreDD2 PV
A trailer for Dog Days 2 is made available (h/t John).
Becky (and Shinku's sister) travel to Biscotti; Princess confronts Becky. They do not show who wins, but since Shinku has to return, your guess is just as valid as mine. But we may safely say that Eclair loses …
