Those were the biggest meat buns I’ve ever seen. The hours are slipping away and I have to be up early for a bone-crushingly full day tomorrow, at Fanime and otherwise, and I’d really planned to make this a fairly short post on MGX. But dammit, now I just want […] Read more
List of people not to piss off: 1. Killua Zoldyck I can’t recall the last time I laughed so hard at something non-comedic as I did at the last scene of this episode of H x H. It wasn’t so much that it was funny, but it was just so bodaciously awesome […] Read more
I think in order to enjoy F/Z to its fullest, you need to be either a major sadist or a major masochist. Happily though, either would probably work. It’s not like he ever makes it easy to forget, but Urobuchi-san certainly likes to remind you with brute force just who’s […] Read more
Holy time skip, Pig Boy! Only time for a brief check-in with the craziness this weekend. As you know AW was sort of on the chopping block for me after the last couple of episodes – I just wasn’t finding myself very involved in the story anymore. But I have to confess […] Read more
An amazing night of AO goodness at Fanime tonight. Fanime put together an E7: AO event this evening, screening the first three eps of the series. As well, Funimation had a rep there (no plans for the stream to catch up, unfortunately) and the Guest of Honor was Koyama Shigeto. […] Read more
Good afternoon, Lost in Americans! It’s a cool, cloudy day in San Jose California as my first ever Fanime kicks off. I’ve attended a few events so far – Matsumoto Leiji panel, opening ceremonies, etc. – but the big one for today is the Eureka Seven: AO event scheduled for […] Read more
Wherever The Truth is from, apparently they need more lolis. Speaking only for myself, this might have been the most “Eureka Seven” episode Astral Ocean has offered yet. – complete with a massive plot bomb, much of which was incomprehensible to my feeble brain, at least so far. I guess […] Read more
Sometimes the term “femme fatale” can be taken quite literally. Just a brief check-in with Lupin III this week I’m afraid, as I’m trying to front-load the schedule as much as possible in preparation for Fanime this weekend. I was very interested to see Okada Mari’s old pal Nishimura Junji […] Read more
Daddy issues… It’s back to the main plot for Sankarea and no disrespect to Ranko, but it’s not a moment too soon. There’s so much that still needs to be covered (and I’m not even a manga reader) and so little time to do it. There’s some buzz that this […] Read more
A brief note to all the readers: I’ll be covering Fanime 2012 this weekend. As a result some of the normal Friday-Sunday posts will likely be delayed, and/or a bit more abbreviated than usual. Of course, I’ll also be providing coverage of the event and a summary on Monday. Read more
