Tokyo Diaries – Rikugien Garden

May 1, 2013Guardian EnzoUncategorizedJapan, Tokyo Diaries
Comments (1)

Spring is busting out all over. Golden Week continues – here are some pics from Rikugien Garden, a landscape garden in Bunkyou (five stops from my apartment) that was built at the beginning of the 18th Century.  It’s amazing how the massively crowded metropolis of Tokyo is riddled with beautiful […] Read more

Evangelion Shin Gekijouban: Q

April 30, 2013Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, Evangelion, Movie/OVA, reviews
Comments (12)

“You Can (Not) Redo” When I posted my thoughts about Eva Q after seeing it raw in a Japanese theater last December, I opened with “What the heck did I just see?”  After seeing the movie subtitled, I have two further thoughts on that.  First, I sure as hell don’t […] Read more

Arata Kangatari – 04

April 30, 2013Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, Arata Kangatari, reviews
Comments (5)

I see a lot of hopeful signs for Arata Kangatari, but the road ahead is still a puzzling one. The basic trend continues unabated – Arata Kangatari is being adapted at the rate of about 4 chapters per episode, and there are no signs that entire major plot elements will […] Read more

Weekly Digest 4/30/13 – Haiyore! Nyaruko-san, Mushibugyou

April 30, 2013Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, Digests, Haiyore Nyaruko-san, Mushibugyou, reviews
Comments (1)

Why is is that the little ones are scarier than the big ones when it comes to mushi? Haiyore! Nyaruko-san W – 04 I must confess I find the episodes focused around Tamao and Yoichi to be consistently boring, and this one was no exception.  More so than with almost […] Read more

Game of Thrones – 25

April 29, 2013Guardian EnzoUncategorizedGame of Thrones, reviews, Television
Comments (17)

“Kissed by Fire” Is it really possible that this season is half over?  The deeper into this series we get, the more convinced I am that 10 hours is nowhere near enough time to tell the story the way it deserves to be told.  But given the time constraints it’s […] Read more

Suisei no Gargantia – 04

April 29, 2013Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, reviews, Suisei no Gargantia
Comments (14)

I think Suisei no Gargantia is a good answer to the question, “What if an anime basically did what’s been done a thousand times before – only way, way better?” It would be hard to overstate the affection I’m feeling for Gargantia after watching that episode.  Truly, it was wonderful […] Read more

Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai 2 – 04

April 28, 2013Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, Oreimo, reviews
Comments (11)

I’m thinking it might be better if we skipped straight to the BD extra eps now.  Is that possible? For balance’s sake, I’ll start this post by saying something positive about this episode. Ria isn’t as annoying as I thought she’d be. I’m really surprised at how little the second […] Read more

Doctor Who Season 34 – 05

April 28, 2013Guardian EnzoUncategorizedDoctor Who, reviews, Television
Comments (8)

“Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS” “Journey” is a pretty solid episode on the whole, with its share of intriguing moments, but I’m afraid Neil Gaiman has ruined for me TARDIS-centric episodes. I’ve noticed an interesting trend this season, or at least this second half of one – Doctor […] Read more

Hunter X Hunter 2011 – 77

April 28, 2013Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, Hunter x Hunter, reviews
Comments (20)

Only two episodes in, it’s clear that “Chimera Ant” is nothing like what’s come before. Welcome to the dark side of Togashi Yoshihiro’s mind.  And since we’ve already seen some dark places in Hunter X Hunter, the fact that this arc seems such a dramatic tonal shift should give a […] Read more

Spring 2013 Check-in – and Spring 2012 Retrospective

April 28, 2013Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, reviews, Season Previews, Season Reviews
Comments (44)

Three weeks in, Spring 2013 looks pretty good. My take going into this season was that it looked solid – much better than Winter, but not as loaded with intriguing series as Spring of 2012* (the best season in five years, probably).  At this point that’s still where I stand, […] Read more
