1. Don on AsoIku

    At The Kawaii Menace, Don documents translation differences (scroll past a gorgeous stitch of Eris to reach the evidence, if you are strong enough):

    • Ayako & Co.: "So you have. Did you know that mingling with canine humanoids goes against galactic laws?"
    • Zebraman: "By the rules of the universe, making contanct …

  2. Miao slices 2010 Summer

    It's that time upon us: the thin-slicing time (at a blog that changes identities so often that we'll just call it "Miao's place" henceforth). I figured long ago that his order really means nothing, nor should it (I mean, you just look at all those haters of Mitsudomoe, they even …

  3. Mori on group sizes

    I think 3 is best for the long-term narrative construction. And one more thing:

    Five implies a sentai show.

    Right, but I was surprised to learn from Sunred that you can have a sentai group of 3 (e.g. Red himself as Weather Red, Weather Blue, and Weather Yellow).

  4. The 2010 Summer season

    This is one unbelievable season... Too much to watch. Why can't Japan kinda spread it a little?

    Mitsudomoe: A polarizing show if there was one, especially thematically. But the astonishing beauty of animation is acknowledged even by its detractors. Apparently it's a flag show for a new studio in the …

  6. Appreciate Miku Hatsune

    My new Jeep comes with MP3 CD but no USB or SD, so I went back to burning CDs (it's a purposefuly crude vehicle: no power windows, for one). Doing that, I misunderstood how the -path-list option of genisoimage worked, and thus created an ISO where all tracks were shuffled …

  7. Miao on Mitsudomoe 03

    I don't care for his attempts to ride the concept of "brokenness", but we need more blogging commentary like this:

    Dad was awesome. A role model, really. I liked how he thought it was a good idea to run through the city while clutching his daughter’s underwear a la …

  8. Nova on Cat Shit One

    Looks like he liked it:

    The combat is both thrilling and amusing to watch as cute rabbits pump jihad camels full of lead, and it shows that the production crew has taken considerable time studying modern combat tactics and weaponry. As an old military enthusiast it pleases me to see …
