Samurai High School (J-Drama): Pretty Much Live Action Anime

By Mabdese | Published: November 19, 2009

One of these things is not like the other~ Something that has always perplexed me is why anime fans don’t watch more Jdramas. I’m sure this could be for any number of reasons but many dramas are based off anime (Hana Yori Dango, Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon, GTO, Nana, etc.) and some seriously seem to have [...]

SDF Macross Episode 27 – It’s the End of the World as We Know It

By ExecutiveOtaku | Published: November 18, 2009

Given the grand scale of the events of episode 27, I felt it would be best to just do a one episode post this week.

By Mabdese | Published: November 15, 2009

I love you Iroyogi-san, don’t change. So I’m doing a little catch up since I joined the team mid-season. I really wanted this to be a Samurai High School post but some unfortunate things that made me feel a bit like I had Kobato’s common sense happened and I won’t be able to post it until [...]

Kimi ni Todoke 06: Bravely Bold Miss Yuuka…

By Crusader | Published: November 15, 2009

When Sawako was loli she was able to play with all the other kids… T’was a most glorious episode as the first of Sawako’s foe’s felt the sting of defeat and were SMASHED INTO ATOMS by their own pride and subsequent inferiority to Yoshida. After being battered and bloodied for their infantile assault on Sawako Kazehaya [...]

Editorial: Defining Moments in Being a Fan

By ExecutiveOtaku | Published: November 13, 2009

As fans we all have certain moments while watching anime that really capture our hearts. A moment or a scene that we really experience as closely as is possible with a fictional event. Everyone has their own. They may not always be the most technically well done scenes, the most artistic, or those with the [...]
