Oh, good – it’s Kaji Yuki! Why do you insist on torturing me, Japan? On the other hand, at least the good people at Sunrise had the courtesy to kill Leo quickly, so it wasn’t a total loss. I think this was something of a regression episode after the series […] Read more
“The North Remembers” In a way, it’s too bad I’ve read the five extant novels in George R.R. Martin’s “Song of Ice and Fire” series in the last nine months, because it’s impossible for me to view the TV series in the same light as I did when I watched […] Read more
It would have been a lot of fun to watch this episode without knowing beforehand what was going to happen. I wonder if that’s possible, somehow. Perhaps traveling back in time… Gonna have to be careful with the front page caps this week, that’s for sure. Mirai Nikki is one […] Read more
Have you ever felt your cosmo? Natsuiro Kiseki – 01 I certainly realize I’m not the target audience for this one, but there were enough unusual aspects to this 4 Girls@School premise to at least give me hope that it might catch my interest. The gimmick is that the girls […] Read more

This was inevitable given the popularity of the franchise, and while the first season was deeply flawed I enjoyed it a […] Read more
A new weekly feature on Lost in America where I celebrate the best of these genres, which I’ve neglected for far too long. Come on – you didn’t really think so, did you? Happy April 1st! Read more
It seems funny to have to say something that should be so obvious, but this episode really made me realize how much I missed having Killua around. With Chihayfuru in the rear-view (toss a coin, bow twice and clap twice for a second season) it’s nice having Hunter x Hunter […] Read more
“Cage of Flames” Where in the world do I begin… I have a lot of stuff I’m carrying with me going into Shin Kyoto-hen. I’ve written on the subject before, but I’m a huge Rurouni Kenshin fan. It may have been the first anime that I fully embraced as an […] Read more
