To Aru Kagaku no Railgun 12-16: Of Big Fights and Beaches

By Crusader | Published: January 24, 2010

Bring it down Biribiri. It’s been a while since my last Railgun post, most of it was because I was trying to over come my disappointment with Kuroko over her un-lady like behavior in 13 and dismay that Mii was in love with a dude… The BIG FIGHT with the hyper ugly baby thing was satisfying [...]

2009 Honor Roll Part I: The Strategists, The Ruthless, and The Heroes

By Crusader | Published: January 19, 2010

Unlike that honor these do not require a beheading… With the passing of 2009 we thought that it was time to recognize those who showed individual competence during the course of the year. While it is the habit of many to judge series here we prefer to recognize the characters that made their shows a little [...]

Sora no Woto 03: Quinine is a Helluva Drug

By Crusader | Published: January 18, 2010

Seems Noel took one valuable lesson from Gulf War I, don’t sleep in your tank. I am pleasantly surprised that three episodes in I have yet to find reason to shout WRONNNNNNGNGGGGG! at the screen for something woefully inconsistent with military life as I know it. So far it is is in line with instances of [...]

While granted there are those who blast it as a joke on military life, I think they have first off never seen an Air Force Composite Unit and second even [...]

Kampfer 12 (Final Thoughts): Turnabout Furry (SUGOI Late)

By Crusader | Published: January 9, 2010

WTF? Indeed… Yeah I know this is pretty damn late in the game but duty calls and I am still trying to make up for all that lost time. Well the final episode of Kampfer was an unrelated extra episode, but it was nonetheless enjoyable as role switching revealed how Hara-kiri Taiga had been coming up [...]

Sora no Woto 01 – LISTEN TO MY TRUMPET!

By Crusader | Published: January 8, 2010

Well it looks like we have a post war situation here… So while Sora no Woto has earned the ire of many as being K-On, other than the character design it seems different enough. Besides unlike your average scum sucking self serving self righteous Jihad-kun type protagonist Kanata has one thing that makes her so [...]
