THAT Animeblog

Surprise!

Coming in at the second to last episode of Kimiaru is this Shinra-centered episode with plenty of Shinra service. Oh, and there is some sort of “plot” involved with her too but it was kind of boring and I was just oogling her most of the episode, as well as laughing at Ren’s lack of skill with the ladies.

I didn’t know what this is when I watched it. I now know. It’s a 3 minute per episode show about a cat who loses its parents after it forgets to follow them home. This is the story. That’s about it because I am dumbfounded on what else to say. It is strangely cute even though I do not remember liking cats that much in real life.

Neko rocks?

p/s In other unrelated news, we updated the Tentative Spring Blogging list for 2008.

This is how it ends.

Slag. Damn you Hiromi (fires AK-47 angrily into the air)! Okay now that my fury at Noe crying semi-sad tears has largely passed I think I can write a bit more about what happened. Hiromi and Shin are a couple, hooray. I can at least console myself with the fact that Hiromi has moved on a bit form her old ways, at least she knows that she was being a nasty woman, but at least she started to change. When Hiromi started confessing her faults I already saw the fist signs of Hiromi ascendant. When Shin’s face lit up when Hiromi said she loved him Noe getting a broken heart was a foregone conclusion. I guess the childhood friend thing really ran that deep. I’ll keep this short since I don’t have the words to describe the anguish I felt when Noe walked off on her own.

Why a Kotomi pic? Because I can.

Daily, the manga market gets spammed with new works, ranging from one-shots, serializations or volumes; some will have some success, some will be best sellers and some will die, forgotten in the middle of the works that surpass them. A few years back, who thought that mangas like One Piece and Naruto would last more than 10 years and become references outside Japan?

That’s why I’m always eager to check the new releases created each year: 2008 has been so far an interesting year in that matter. So I wrote this list of works to pay attention along the year , because I think they have potential to become great works.

So apparently our mysterious sweets lovin super detective loves to kidnap little girls in his spare time. Mmmmmmmmmmm

Kudos to whoever’s the first to name the Manga this image is from. *HINT* If you read one of Extrange’s posts beforehand, you can probably guess pretty easily.

Oh yeah, for those that actually read my H2O rambles, there should be a complete series review coming up…one of these days…

It’s been a rough week. This is my rant about it. Not so much about my life and whether or not I like hotdogs (*cough* ask Impz), but just some thoughts on THAT, and how me being here pertains to you.

*there are no pictures*

I’m the type of person who believes in the whole “karma, reap what you sow, it comes back around” stuff., but I’m also the kind of person who believes that the best way to live is to give and not expect a return. As a blogger, I was always prepared to give my time and energy to write, even if no one commented on my stuff or the response was negative. But, I’ve been in that dismal hole where you write and “give”, but there’s no one there to read or “take” anything. There’s a big difference between “give” and “throw away”.

At least he is not crying in defeat…

As per a few demands by the pro-Gundam 00 camp I guess it is time I explained what they call my irrational hate for the series and my lack of being fair and balanced. They bothered to read so I must respond. There are things I like about the series and more that I do not. It would be a more simple matter if the UN guys sucked as hard as those CB terrorists, but I still like Sergei, Katie, Patrick, Ali, Soma, and Graham. They are why I watch this series and every time they take a back seat to Feldt crying or a Moreno eulogy I am filled with rage and honestly as a soldier I am supposed to have an abundance of aggression, its just that my job gives me direction as to where to aim it. So is there legitimacy for the Gundam 00 hate? I say that there are plenty of reasons…
