Yotsunoha (OAV) – Pseudo-Lolis with kansai-ben are fine too!

As I was browsing through the links for Hatenkou Yuugi, I found a mysterious anime that I have not seen before. Since I am born with the curiosity of a cat, I decide to check out what it is. It turns out that it is Yotsunoha, an original anime video adapted from a PC H-game [...]

A first hand look at an “amateur’s visual novel” – Hisashiburi’s project SVN

I like lolis. Green haired preferably but purple haired lolis are fine too. It is perhaps by sheer chance that I stumbled upon the blog named Hisashiburi. It is definitely a welcome change from most of the common anime blogs that I see all the time. When I mean all the time, it is the tried [...]

The origins of the spring onion song.

Manga Bites: Shinseiki Evangelion – Gakuen Datenroku

I wouldn’t be surprised if Shinji shoots his head and summons Eva-01… This was the year of ‘96. I barely had entered my teen years and the only decent stuff on public TV was Samurai X (Rurouni Kenshin) and animes like Tenchi Muyo and Lost Galaxy. Then, without any kind of advertizing, [...]

Saiunkoku Monogatari II Episode 37 – “目は心の鏡”

After the recap episode explains Ryuuki’s history as an emperor (I make it sound like he is no longer the emperor of Saiunkoku, heh!), this episode goes back to the main story. For a short recap, Ryuuki collapsed right in front of the temple from exhaustion and the high altitudes. What will happen when [...]
