Mouryou no Hako, Episode #02 – The Tanuki’s Trick

By Maipeisu | Published: October 21, 2008

The tanuki's magic at work. What a gem...! It's fortunate that I've been immersed in literature driven by time-divergent narratives lately, because as exquisite as Mouryou no Hako's animation is, its narrative is the centerpiece and demands a nimble eye. It is based, after all, on an award-winning mystery/horror novel written by the youkai-obsessed Kyougoku [...]

Kannagi Episode 3 – Ghost Stories

By Shokkeru | Published: October 21, 2008

Freakyz Yes! I love it! This series has to be one of the better shows this season. I love the comedy and I’m impressed by the quality of production put into the show. It may not be the best show this season and it may not be for everyone, but I really do enjoy this show.

Light Novel Review: ToraDora Spin-off! The Cherry-colour Tornado of Happiness

By Lupus | Published: October 20, 2008

I wonder how many people will read this post, let alone reply to it. This post is about the 6th ToraDora book published, and its stories take place between the end of the mid-semester exams and summer vacation. If you’re still here, it means you’ve either read the book or wants to know [...]

Skip Beat Episode 3 – The first hurdle for Kyoko

By Impz | Published: October 20, 2008

This entry will be more solemn than usual, as the episode has hit me quite hard emotionally. I still remember this particular chapter in the series because it is one of those scenes that make me love Kyoko so much. Hence, it will not do this episode any justice if I make a joking entry. [...]

Clannad ~ After Story ~ Episode 3: Let’s talk about Youhei

By jiff | Published: October 19, 2008

Another week, another Sunohara-centric episode. I know that Mei has been on a lot of people’s minds, but I’m going to go ahead and skip that discussion, as it kind of weirded me out. I’d rather focus on Sanae’s insistence that, at heart, Youhei is a good person. I know that last [...]

To Aru Majutsu no Index Episode 3 – Index is in trouble!

By Impz | Published: October 19, 2008

All right, Impz has finally sold out to the masses by blogging the 3rd episode of Index. Well, sold out might be adding quite a bit of an exaggeration because I am actually enjoying this series quite a lot. Anyway, a recap of last episode is due. Last week, Index collapsed with a huge blood [...]

Chaos;HEAd, Episode #02 – “Shogun”

By Maipeisu | Published: October 19, 2008

Zero to moe in six seconds flat. C;H #01 made it clear that (o)Taku suffers from serious delusions -- there's no doubt about that. What remains unclear is when we are being shown another delusion and when we are being craftily fed the truth. There was some speculation that the murder scene in the first episode [...]
