1. SDB on idols


    Haruka's Fan Number One.

    There was a unduly nasty attack on Idolm@ster at Chizumatic recently, with the kinds of smear-by-association rhetoric that I would not even use on feminists. Leaving that aside, however, it was also misguided and wrong-headed in its thesis, which I think merits addressing.

    The girls …

  2. Stilts on Viewer's Imaginations

    Editorial content in my RandomC? Say it ain't so!

    The question of viewer's imagination is rather natural. I appreciate the anime that raises questions very much. Two things, however.

    Firstly, what excites one, falls flat for another. Seen the guesswork about Mouretsu at Chizumatic? And before that, AsoIku? But I …

  3. One-color School

    The three-color system is so pervasive, that now I notice exceptions. So far there's only one: Ousai Academy of S.Y.D.. Pictured: Mitsuba, who is a year off the other members, if I understand it right. I may be wrong about her in particular, but there aren't any diffierent …

  4. Reader Mail and Pretty Girls

    Just kidding, nobody sends any mail anymore. However, Chikorita #157 was essentially trolling for linkage regarding "older girls". Azusa Miura, sure, we looked at her previously, although then again, is there anyone hotter than Kotori in that show? And the prompting article left me rather unimpressed.

    I’ve noticed that …

  5. Schneider on AKB0048

    The AKB0048 landed in my queue after Kuro shared the picture of goddamn assault mikesaber. But until now I found nothing rebloggable... Except Nova's tryptich, perhaps:

    What I watched: AKB0048. What I expected: Idolm@ster Space Edition. What I got: STALINGRAD.

    The force with which it hit Nobar was rather …

  6. The Other Meta

    I was rewatching Sunred just now, and I thought that the voice of Miki, a colorful side character in ep.44, sounded familiar.

    The show's page at ANN was useless, but fortunately the titles are easy to read: it was Sakura Nogawa. For a moment I imagined it could be …

  7. DD2 PV

    A trailer for Dog Days 2 is made available (h/t John).

    Becky (and Shinku's sister) travel to Biscotti; Princess confronts Becky. They do not show who wins, but since Shinku has to return, your guess is just as valid as mine. But we may safely say that Eclair loses …
