You better go check out my review of the second episode of Dantalian no Shoka over at RC, or you’ll set some of this… Read more

Blood-C – 03
Blood-C topped the Summer poll on this site for new series, and it was pretty much a whitewash. Trust me when I say, I don’t take the possibility of dropping a show like that – especially one that’s both a “Blood” and Production I.G. effort – lightly. But I’m […] Read more
Mawaru Penguin Drum – 3
There haven’t been many times in the last decade when I’ve said “That really reminded me of FLCL” – but that really reminded me of FLCL. The colors, the glossy look to the animation, and that cat – you could hardly get more Miyu Miyu than that. So, with that […] Read more
Usagi Drop – 03
It’s rare that I say this, but I think the key to success for Usagi Drop is going to be a lack of ambition on the part of it’s creative team. That’s not a criticism of what they’ve done so far – I like this series very much. Most of […] Read more
No. 6 – 03
Buzz on over to RC for my blog review of No. 6, episode 3. And stay tuned for Penguins and single Dads later tonight. Read more
Steins;Gate – 16
The theorizing and postulating and guessing and spoiling is going to be gangbusters after this episode – it’ll happen in blog comments and forums and everywhere Steins:Gate is sold. I’m not going to ignore it by any means, but the main point I want to get across here is this […] Read more
Kamisama Dolls – 3
It’s a fierce battle for the last spot in my overcrowded blogging schedule this Summer. With multiple carryovers, 3 new series at RC and several can’t-miss options here, several shows are going to face the axe, I’m afraid. After the first half of tonight’s Kamisama Dolls I was worried that […] Read more
Natsume Yuujinchou San – 03
Get yourself all pimped out and head on over to RC for my blog post on Natsume Yuujinchou San, Episode 3. Read more
Poll: Jump Break or Full Posts?
Do you prefer “jump break” posts (click “Read more” to view full post) or the entire post visible on the front page (the current format)? A tie??? You guys didn’t help me, here, LOL… Maybe I’ll use the jump break selectively for longer posts only. Please comment below if you […] Read more
Nurarihyon no Mago: Sennen Makyo – 3
This is definitely not your 2010 self’s Nurarihyon. We’ve come a long way – with a new director, a crisper pace and an enjoyably dark tone that was only intermittently felt last year, this feels like a different series. The track record for shounen manga that go to Kyoto to […] Read more
