Robotics;Notes – 08

December 1, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, reviews, Robotics;Notes
Comments (14)

The pieces continue to be fit together in increasingly interesting ways. I have a lot of respect for Robotics;Notes.  It’s not taking shortcuts either with its storytelling or character development, not (often, anyway) resorting to low-hanging fruit for audience gratification, and seems to be putting it’s stock in a slow-build […] Read more

Psycho-Pass – 08

November 30, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, Psycho-Pass, reviews
Comments (23)

As the old carnival sign says, “This is a dark ride”. This was another thought-provoking, interesting and smart episode of Psycho-Pass, which continues to descend further down the rabbit hole of Urobuchi Gen’s psyche.  It was a flashy episode too, full of signature moments and speeches and crescendos of violence.  […] Read more

Shirokuma Café – 35

November 30, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, reviews, Shirokuma Cafe
Comments (5)

“Sasako-san – doko no aru daro?” Look out Handa-san – looks like you have some competition. Shirokuma is another one of those shows that’s so easy to watch and enjoy that you don’t have to think too hard – it’s great at providing the simple pleasures.  But this one does […] Read more

Chuunibyou – 09

November 30, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, Chuunibyou, reviews
Comments (5)

If there were any doubt that Chuunibyou would be pursuing the romance angle in its final arc, I think it’s safely dispelled now. Chuunibyou has been a study in extremes for the most part.  In the first six episodes it was very silly and pretty funny a good percentage of […] Read more

Jormungand: Perfect Order – 08

November 28, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, Jormungand, reviews
Comments (8)

If it seems as if there’s one character in Jormungand that’s always a step ahead of everyone else, that’s because there is.  Her name is Koko, but I don’t think she’s loco at all. In Norse mythology, Jörmungandr (Old Norse: Jǫrmungandr, pronounced [ˈjɔrmuŋɡandr]), often written Jormungand, or Jörmungand and also […] Read more

Sakurasou no Pet no Kanoujou – 08

November 28, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, reviews, Sakurasou
Comments (13)

Whatever else you may think about it, watching Sakurasou is certainly never a boring experience. As this episode played out, I was reminded of the start of the old nursery rhyme “There Was a Little Girl” (actually a poem by Longfellow): There was a little girl, who had a little […] Read more

Ginga e Kickoff – 28

November 27, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, Ginga e Kickoff, reviews
Comments (9)

This ep was definitely a gift for the soccer geeks in the audience. I’m going to risk repeating myself now that we’re 28 episodes into Ginga e Kickoff, but for a serious fan of sports anime, what it offers is so rare that it’s hard not to keep talking about […] Read more

Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun – 09

November 27, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, reviews, Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun
Comments (14)

There’s no need to mince words – every week I grow more impressed by just how excellent Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun is. There are a couple of ways one could go about trying to explain the appeal of this series, starting with the most obvious: list all the things it does […] Read more

Sukitte Ii na yo – 08

November 26, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, reviews, Sukitte Iia na yo
Comments (24)

That was a difficult episode to watch – mostly (but not entirely) for the right reasons. The contrast between the way the two shoujo romances this season approach their material could hardly be more stark, and while it’s not fair to either series to judge them based on the other, […] Read more

Little Busters! – 08

November 26, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, Little Busters, reviews
Comments (17)

Probably the best episode of Little Busters! so far, though that should hardly come as a surprise. It would be easy to sum up the strength of this episode with “Duh – it’s Kud!”  And while our little Euro-Asian hybrid is without question the most entertaining of all the girls […] Read more
