1. Kabitzin on DD2 01

    He minces no words:

    I get the feeling that Eclair will be largely forgotten this season, aside from being the bro-chick of the group, but it was cute to see she was still wearing Shinku’s disgusting sweatband on her wrist.

    Yeah. And now I have to rewatch it, because …

  2. AKB0048 begins

    Having seen 3 episodes, I know how Nova deceived me, and I know why he did it. It's all right.

    There are many ways to love AKB0048. One is to look at the manual and agree with J.P.: "how can anyone hate a show with micsabers, ita-mecha, cylume claws …

  3. Bateszi on Sankarea

    Says he's "utterly torn" because it's "exploitative":

    It’s not just the fan-service (of which there’s many a scene full of jiggling breasts and panty-shots) but how it exploits Sanka’s zombified state as a cheap excuse to have her be molested (or molest others!)

    Also:

    There’s a …

  4. Schneider on SAO 01

    He mosly contrasts Sword Art Online with Accel World for the article, and finds SAO lacking:

    Make no mistake: Accel World is a pretty serious game. There are stakes, and you can be kicked out of the game permanently. But the show never forgets that it’s about game. That …

  5. SDB on I cannot H 01

    Says he "felt soiled". Apparently the concept of sexual recharge was not executed well. Seen commonly in anime, in my humble opinion, one of the better versions was offered in the original Sekirei. Remember when Sato tells Tsukiumi (a powerful, but as-yet-unattached sekirei): "you might want to turn your eyes …

  6. Who is Karen Iwata?

    Take it from a seiyuus ignoramus: one of the biggest things that I marked about AKB0048 01 was how Nagisa's voice was far too big for her character, even after the 4-year timeskip. The effect is somewhat similar to what many were observing about Urabe (CV: Ayako Yoshitani). The most …

  7. Yumeka on Mouretsu Pirates

    In short, a disappointment:

    I liked the first two episodes of Mouretsu Pirates when we saw a lot of the fascinating high-tech world it takes place in and focus was on Marika and her relationship with her mother, friends, etc,. But 20+ episodes later, as much as I wanted to …

  8. Bloggers on early AKB0048

    I already blogged Nova, who spoke to my sensibilities. Nothing about Nova's narrative changed after seeing the material for myself, but I am not entirely satisfied for other reasons and tried to find some good naysaying. Unfortunately, the pickings were slim.

    Peter S. disappoints completely. Take a load of this …
