Tried out watching SW2 02 at Rutube. Subs are pretty bad in the liberties they take in order to add the spice. In America, translator's butt would've been handed to him on a platter in various forums.
I'm sticking with raws for now. But it's good to have some backup …
read moreThe difference between the two is pretty clearcut: Ichizon was funny.
Ichizon was nasty garbage (what's worse, in a moment of weakness I fell for peer pressure and tried it twice). With that in mind, and knowing that my and Wonderduck's tastes are usually diametrically opposed, I am …
read moreOne thing I’m quite liking about Campanella is how they are doing a better job of depicting an RPG game than most other RPG game anime adaptations. Ironic since it’s actually an eroge in origin.
My luck with the quote-unquote "RPG" genre was mostly bad …

Every blogger who's not sick, on hiatus, or a plain hater goes gaga about Amagami SS... even Omo. Although granted, he's more concerned with TV ratings, but still. Kuro has the screencap of what the guy with a handle of an NCR SCSI chip proclaimed a new fetish. And I …

He says in a post at MMM:
The second season has completely departed from the manga, and the results are far more promising than I expected. [...] I don’t know who’s writing this, but I’m impressed so far.
More to the backlog?! But I wanted to catch up …
read moreThe article at Sea Slugs spoils so heavily that I am not sure if I need to watch the episode early. Might as well wait for Crunchy. But still, choice screencaps! Also, among all the retelling I failed to understand if Mio's Striker failing was a defeciency in her magic …
