Weekly Digest: 11/12/12 – Btooom!, Zetsuen no Tempest

November 12, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, Btooom, Digests, reviews, Zetsuen no Tempest
Comments (12)

Any week that marks the return of Evangeline Yammamoto is off to a good start. Btooom! – 06 Btooom is a classic dilemma – I really want to dislike it, but I’m fairly engrossed every time I watch it (when I’m not just grossed, anyway).  It’s a well-made action thriller, […] Read more

Little Busters – 06

November 12, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, Little Busters, reviews
Comments (11)

Wow – that conclusion sure arrived a lot faster than I expected. As with just about everything else with Little Busters!, I’m very much of two minds about this episode, and the entire Komari arc (both episodes of it).  On the one hand I can very much feel myself being […] Read more

Hunter X Hunter 2011 – 55

November 11, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, Hunter x Hunter, reviews
Comments (32)

With this many iconic characters running around, the hard part with H x H sometimes is figuring out who the star of the episode was. As always with this series, it’s a mark of its greatness that it can offer an episode with no action in the middle of an […] Read more

Uchuu Kyoudai – 32

November 11, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, reviews, Uchuu Kyoudai
Comments (4)

Another week, another gem.  Ho, hum. One of the things that stands out about Space Brothers is the attention to detail – not in the animation (I love the space shots but the backgrounds do get a little fuzzy in four-cour anime with limited Blu-ray sales) but in the writing.  […] Read more

Chuunibyou – 06

November 11, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, Chuunibyou, reviews
Comments (10)

There are few shows doing idiocy as well as Chuunibyou, and there’s definitely something to be said for that. It occurs to me that this show would get a lot more interesting if it were revealed that Rikka (or even Yuuta or, God forbid, Dekomori) actually had magical powers.  I […] Read more

Shin Sekai Yori – 07

November 10, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, reviews, Shin Sekai Yori
Comments (21)

I’m not sure if Shin Sekai Yori was in what I would call a slump – more like “slightly less great” for a couple of episodes – but it was fully back on-track for this one. Damn it, how does SSY keep making me think the episodes are 5 minutes […] Read more

Robotics;Notes – 05

November 10, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, reviews, Robotics;Notes
Comments (13)

I know a government conspiracy couldn’t be too far off… It’s looking like a pretty darn good season on NoitaminA after all.  Psycho-Pass is rounding into form nicely, and I’ve loved Robotics;Notes right from the beginning.  The thing about this show is that even when things get heavy (and the destruction of the solar […] Read more

Psycho-Pass – 05

November 10, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, Psycho-Pass, reviews
Comments (5)

If Minority Report Mated with UN-GO and gave birth to Urobuchi Gen, Psycho-Pass would be pretty close to the result. Fundamentally, I think Psycho-Pass comes down to this: if you think a sci-fi film noir written by Gen and animated by Production I.G. is likely to be interesting, you’re going […] Read more

Shirokuma Café – 32

November 10, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, reviews, Shirokuma Cafe
Comments (5)

There’s just nothing like real artisan lemur cheese. This was a pretty lighthearted and simple edition of Shirokuma this week, with two stories that definitely placed the comedy first.  We had a sort of slightly off-kilter take on “The Secret Garden”, except that everything in this secret garden is edible […] Read more

Fall 2012 Check-in

November 8, 2012Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, reviews, Season Reviews
Comments (28)

Somewhat tardy, here’s the Fall 2012 check-in – and a pretty solid season it is, on the whole. My read on Fall 2012 going in was that it was deep in potentially good shows, while lacking candidates for real greatness.  On balance I’d say that expectation has largely been met […] Read more
