I guess the three eps leading up to this were the normal part of MGX, because this week things got really weird. I have another twist on my theory regarding the symbolism of the whole drool thing, but I’ll get to that in a minute as I think enough stuff […] Read more
Can’t say this was a hard one to see coming… Where’s Freddie Mercury when you need him? Two things mentioned here last week, a “death of the week” scenario and Tokiomi being the next Master to face the axe, are certainly looking good so far. I don’t know whether we’ll […] Read more

The short version – pretty damn great. Long version is after the jump. I’ve been touting this season as a good one since the first tentative schedules began to appear months ago, and that’s turned out to be the case. I think a strong case can be made that this […] Read more
I believe NOAA has issued a shipping forecast calling for choppy seas ahead… This post is full of spoilers about this week’s Korra episode, so beware before reading.

Trying to get a handle on this series is like trying to hit a moving target. Sankarea is another one of the weird but fascinating shows this season, quite unlike anything else I’ve seen. Sometimes I find myself wondering, “Can this possibly be DEEN?” as I watch the gorgeous landscapes and spectacular […] Read more
It’s completely natural for a very good show to have a letdown after an episode as flawless as last week’s edition of AO. The fact that this show suffered no such letdown is an awfully good omen for its future. I never expected last week’s episode – quite possibly my […] Read more
The return of the man himself arrives at last, and it doesn’t disappoint. There aren’t too many characters like Mine Fujiko in mainstream anime – a woman who will unabashedly sell her body to get what she wants. That’s why viewers calling what this series does “fanservice” are really missing the point […] Read more
In a season full of quality anime of all styles and genres, Tsuritama remains strangely and wonderfully different from all the rest. I love the fact that Tsuritama is so markedly different from anything that Nakamura Kenji has done before, yet still retains the essence of who he is as […] Read more
