    Thought I gave up on cons, but LCAD announced a panel "IDOLM@STER videos". My only weakness! If any animebloggers plan to come, hit me on e-mail, plz.

    UPDATE: Las Cruces hosts the only Pizzeria Uno location in the state.

    UPDATE 2010/01/31: Well, that was fun, but unfortunately …

    At the club today, our local industry insider (whose name, unfortunately, I did not catch) announced that a new station started broadcasting: 91.8 The Fan. Although the site was attractively designed, finding their stream was a chore (I only saw a Flash applet), so I hopped on their IRC …

    Seen a funny missive today from the owner of RACS:

    R1 studios are not going to be able to build a future on paid downloads or advertising revenue shares. That strategy caters mostly to the folks who are currently stealing Anime, and is DOA. From my point of view, I …

  4. Jessi's capsule (p)reviews

    My favourite hater of good anime also has a LJ. Yesterday she sent up what amounts to a list of capsure comments, and I am weak for them. Scroll down where she becomes tired and terse. Many are quite witty!

    Also:

    Kampfer - Trap anime, too lollerrific to pass up. Probably …

  5. Will the real Cuc please stand up?

    I have a little "database" of anime series with capsule descriptions, which lets me scan lists quickly. I aim for capturing the essense of perception, e.g. Michiko and Hatchin is labeled ``GTA: San Andreas'' (which actually refers to the PA strip, not game). But most are referential: Potemayo is …

  6. LK2 on Nodame (at-last-cant-wait) Finale

    I chuckled at this:

    So, this is the seventeenth season of this series, about some chick who plays piano and some guy who stabs people with a conductor’s baton. The chick used to be lame as shit, but in the new series, she’s taken a level in badass …

  7. Nova on Omamori Himari

    Jinx.fi:

    The visuals are plain at best and character animation is wonky, with jerky movements and frequent drawing errors. [...] Omamori Himari is an awful anime without a doubt.

    Not sure if we can trust Nova on this, or anyone really: Aroduc rejected Kimi ni Todoke based on "artistic demerits …

  8. Sage on Nyan Koi

    Not that I cared much to begin with, but just for the record, as seen at Tenka Hametsu:

    And you know what’s the problem with this show? Every “help-a-cat” episode is the very definition of filler in any show. “Monster-of-the-week” syndrome. And the other half of the show is …
