Tooryanse – Cultural tidbits

By Maipeisu | Published: August 31, 2008

It’s no secret; I love anime. I mean, if I didn’t love it, I damn sure wouldn’t be here, right? But sometimes I need to take a step back and ask myself why I love it so much. More specifically, why is anime so frigging addictive? What is it about Japanese animation, compared to Chinese [...]

Code Geass R2, Episode 21- The Ragnarok Connection

By Calawain | Published: August 31, 2008

One for the road Charlie, we loved you. Wow, now I’ve seen some really great trolls on 4chan and the like but I’m not sure anyone has trolled me as much as Sunrise just did. This is seriously epic-level trolling of everyone who watches this show. That being said this episode had so much [...]

World Destruction Ep 8: Ri A is less tsundere now and lol for the silly CPR

By Reverse Vampire | Published: August 31, 2008

What? Delivering a simple love letter to your client this time? So sorry for the (very) late post on this week’s episode. Damn you subbers, you’re all so slow in publishing the subs to us. And before I forget, all pictures shown here are credited to Crunchyroll. After watching this episode this makes my desire to [...]

Macross Frontier 21: Elopement with Brera…? Bye Bye Ranka

By Crusader | Published: August 31, 2008

If only your actions were as beautiful as this picture Ranka… Much to my joy Ranka finally did do something other than cry, unfortunately in doing so she just shot to pieces whatever hope there was for any development between her and Alto-hime. Getting on the bus did not do Minmay any favors and jumping on [...]

Itazura na Kiss 20: the Old Bag annoys me…

By Crusader | Published: August 29, 2008

Wow Chris called it first… So this post is again late mostly because the DoD ID Card folks were closing earlier than they used to, much to my misfortune I had to make an unplanned over night stay. It also didn’t help that I was playing Castle Crashers with some friend the previous night. So here [...]

To Love-Ru Episode 21 – So you want to make your own alien hotel?

By Shokkeru | Published: August 28, 2008

At least they were smart enough to add this line in the episode… but that’s pretty much it. Before you all ask me why I’m still blogging this series let me say this… While I do think this series has gone down the toilet several episodes ago and has no chance for redemption, I feel that [...]

Natsume Yuujin-chou, Episode #08 – “…Better to have loved and lost…”

By Maipeisu | Published: August 28, 2008

I realize I bash this series sometimes, but it really does have a lot of substance. Looks like I'll have to eat my words this week ^^ Takashi-kun's latest adventure moved me nearly to tears. He meets another masked lady-youkai (a firefly, this time) hunched tightly against a man sitting at a lake. She is stunned [...]
