9. Mitsudomoe 01

   Mitsudomoe 01 pulls all stops right from the start and never slackens. And despite the utter idiocy of the script, I was laughing hard. The same happened with Minami-ke, but fortunately in Mitsudomoe they do not have anyone particularly poisonous. Nobody is too good either. Hitoha is very far from …

10. Max Heart ends

    Does it make sense to watch Max Heart without watching the original Pretty Cure? This question was answered in the affirmative for other series before, at least by some. And the DTO debacle helped.

    

    The grind was soul-crushing. If the 39 episodes of Akazukin were tough, the 47 episodes of …

11. A chartfag announces Yotsuba anime

    Someone posted the following for the Autumn 2010:

    

    English chart? Nutty mind? Sunrise? This got to be fake.

    And a quick visit to Chartfag shows that Fall 2010 is not available.

12. Aroduc on Mitsudomoe 01

    He says, "this has the same staff as Minami-ke and it shows." Aww, snap. I hated Minami-ke.

13. Early bloggers on Ookami+7

    Must pay attention after considering it previously, although of course having no time to sample the series on my own I just rely on BRWs.

    Aroduc:

    The narrator in general I could definitely do without. [...] It’s about as well-animated as you’d expect from JC Staff. The action was …

14. DiGiKerot on NIS and Toradora

    Speaking at #animeblogger, DiGiKerot said that the ghosting is plainly visible on a PC, less so on a consumer TV (although is present there as well). Since you have to be a real videophile to see all of 625 lines, the ghosting basically becomes obvious during the fast movement only …

15. Bakemonogatari Finale... Wait, What?

    Divine posted a recap of ep.15 (heavy spoilers), which apparently was delayed by half a year. In it, he mentioned vampires. Ugh. I hate vampires.

    Bake has some of a tortured history here. It excited bloggers when it aired, then there was Cuc's recommendation, CKS' blogging and finally the …

16. J.P. on YKK anime

    When he's right, he's right. Also:

    But at least I didn’t fall asleep like I did when I tried to watch Mushishi.

    Unfortunately, I watched Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou years before Mushishi, so I did not have a chance for such witty comparisons.

17. SW2 trailers

    Via John, a trailer and fragments of OP and ED are uploaded to the official website. The setting and the story are more of the same (Suwa is missing). It would be a big yawn if I did not remember J2 — the sequel that overturned everything we knew about same-old-same-old …

18. Cat Shit One at Youtube on 7/17

    At-freaking-last, or at least so says animeanime.jp. Dunno what "haishin" (配信) is, but "muryou" (無料) sounds good, even if for one episode only.

    John also reports on the trailer, which is really just the stand-up act by Paki and Botatsky. BTW, the former touts a beaten-up "battlefield …
