The post at Hontou Ni is obviously written by a true fan, and is quite readable despite the length. Links were generously scattered too. I'm glad Ani-nouto was useful for something at least, and I don't mind people liking the Paris-hen. Zyl is in a good company: Evirus thought that …
read moreAroduc on SoraOto
Actually I've read about Sora no Otoshimono at Moero Amazon before Aroduc posted, but I figured it made no sense to link since it's all in Japanese and I was too lazy to quote and translate properly. Also screencaps of someone's deformed chest with a chain running between breasts should …
read moreCoriolis Force
Before I had a chance to admit my defeat about "koriorifoosu ni chuui" (see picture), they spoiled it by translating a similar sign in Starship Operators 04. Turned out they meant Coriolis Force.
Looking at the speed of movement in the corridors, things must be falling extremely slowly, even with …
read moreKurogane on Starship Operators
Unfortunately, there were some mild spoilers in the write-up, beware.
Overall, it feels like an incomplete series though, as the end is rather ambigiously done. It would have probably fared better if they animated the rest of the novels which deal with the crew’s fate afterwards, from what I …
read moreMiss Fuyuu likes Sacred Blacksmith
Sometimes I'm badly burnt by this genre (e.g. Symphonia), but I try anyway. And if a girl is not bothered by the breastplate, it should be safe to watch. Although certainly, the ending is a big question as usual. But when it's not?

TJ Han and Aroduc on Nyankoi 01
This is getting funny.
The character designs are nice, the animation is crisp and the comedy is funny. In fact, it’s quite a bit like Seto no Hanayome, feels totally like it style-wise.
There weren’t any really terribly embarrassing production moments that I can …
read moreSage on CANAAN
The half-dead blogger woke up to pan CANAAN. Apparently, after good couple of episodes, someone "became so batshit insane because of her unrequited lesbian crush that it was just too creepy", the protagonist and the titular character was "the most bland and uninteresting ... in the whole show", and the antagonist …
read moreBanner 01 vs Starship OPS 01
To verify my impression of S/OPS, I reviewed the opener of Banner of the Stars. As expected, it is an outstanding piece of work, and I liked it better. That said, it's a bit different.
The most obvious part is that there are only 5 characters to present. This …
