What in the world did I just watch? It’s been a frantic day and I’m tired and all, but boy – that was about as content-free an episode of any anime as I’ve seen for a while. I feel even better about comparing this series to “Seinfeld” a few weeks back, because the […] Read more
A list of the series Koyama Shigeto has worked on is a veritable Hall of Fame for modern anime. Seirei no Moribito Neon Genesis Evangelion Tengen-Toppa Gurren Lagann Eureka Seven/E7 Astral Ocean Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex Oreimo Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt Star Driver Heroman Michiko to […] Read more
Tenzin! Greetings All. Here’s another bulletin from Fanime 2012… Another fun day of geekery at Fanime 2012 today. Great to be surrounded by anime people – it’s such a rare occurrence in America. On the video side, caught up with some vintage Rurouni Kenshin in the “Nostalgia Room” (sigh) and […] Read more
There are seasons where Space Brothers would be in the running for the #1 spot on my list, but even I tend to take it for granted sometimes with so much competition this Spring. I really do have to keep this one short, but it’s no reflection on the episode, […] Read more
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
