1. Aroduc on the end of Juuden-chan

    He's seen it all (including the thick hook for the next season), and now I must quote at length:

    If there was ever an argument for the advancement of censorship in anime, Juuden is it. So many episodes would have been been much improved by the simple removal of anywhere …

  2. Evirus on Macademy Wasshoi

    Due to circumstances, I studied the origin of "WORSE THAN COSPRAYERS" tag, and found this:

    I don't know how I made it through the first episode. It's God awful. It's worse than Cosprayers, easily. It might even be worse than Limeiro CROSS.

    But, but... Both SDB and Aroduc loved Macademi …

  3. Bateszi on Scrapped Princess

    A twit: "Really loving BONES' animation for Scrapped Princess; traditional fantasy anime like this rarely looks as beautiful." Funny, I remember Scrapped Princess for its terrible animation lapses. The nature setting was mostly ok, but nothing too amazing.

  4. Honey and Clover II

    As was rehashed a million times before, there's no "II" in Honey and Clover II, the story was artificially interrupted for some technical reason on the break of broadcast seasons. So, it makes no sense to watch the first half only. It's the kind of idiotic trick you'd expect from …

    An item from Autumn preview:

    JP’s thoughts: This is possibly the only show this season that coming into the season …

  6. Evirus on Taishou Yakyuu Musume

    About halfway through the season, he says that "Taisho Yakyuu Musume is the best new show airing during the Summer 2009 season" [Emphasis mine — Author]. I just knew it. Unfortunately, I don't have much time for this kind of thing... For example, I'm building a storage cloud in my study …

  7. Is Ponyo a Classic?

    As quoted by Don, Jonathan writes:

    I had to drive over 20 miles to reach a theater that was showing Ponyo. Meanwhile, every single theater in the area is showing another Disney movie about violent, flatulent guinea pigs. Now of course, Disney knows a lot about marketing animated films, and …

  8. Honey and Clover S1

    Seen the first half of Honey and Clover at Hulu. The biggest impression is, Hulu sucks enormously. You can tell that it's made by incumbents. Firstly, what the heck is with only having the first half? It makes even less sense than posting the first half of Vandread. Secondly, pausing …
