Han Megumi is all mixed up with giant bugs everywhere you look these days… Haiyore! Nyaruko-san W – 11 All in all I think this was one of the livelier and funnier eps of the second season of Haiyore!, with Nyaruko at probably the least annoying she’s been at any […] Read more
Sengoku warlords just keep turning up in the strangest places. Haiyore! Nyaruko-san – 10 I’ll say this much for Haiyore! Nyaruko-san, it’s definitely embraced the stupid unreservedly again. I think the humor is about the same as it was in the first season, but a little bit of the novelty […] Read more
It’s nice to be right from time to time. Haiyore! Nyaruko-san W – 09 Another fairly forgettable episode of Haiyore this week, though it was just about saved with some more fireworks between Kuuko and Mahiro there at the end. I think one issue with this series is that among […] Read more
She’s back, whether you want her or not… Haiyore! Nyaruko-san W – 08 It’s official: I pretty much like everyone better as a potential romantic partner for Mahiro than Nyaruko – including a guy, his mother and now a Shantak. Nothing too fancy going on with Haiyore! this week, but […] Read more
Yep, definitely still in Kuuko’s camp. Haiyore! Nyaruko-san – 07 Not even Cthulhu Deities are immune from the immutable power of table tennis, but Haiyore! is back after its short hiatus this week with a pool episode that pretty much continues the theme and style of the second season uninterrupted.

I don’t think I reacted to this development in Haiyore! as I was intended to. Haiyore! Nyaruko-san W – 06 I don’t tend to think much of the episodes where Haiyore! Nyaruko-san tries to get serious, but this is one of the better examples so far. It certainly isn’t thanks […] Read more
Cyclone! Haiyore! Nyaruko-san W – 05 I haven’t generally been all that crazy about the character-driven episodes of Haiyore! – or is the plot-driven ones? In any event, less drive and more comedy is usually the forumla for success here, but for an ep that was plot and character heavy […] Read more
Why is is that the little ones are scarier than the big ones when it comes to mushi? Haiyore! Nyaruko-san W – 04 I must confess I find the episodes focused around Tamao and Yoichi to be consistently boring, and this one was no exception. More so than with almost […] Read more
Four episodes in, I’ve reached a conclusion about Majestic Prince – I kind of like it. Ginga Kikotai Majestic Prince – 04 I said in the Spring Check-in that the fourth episode was going to be very telling as to whether this series had the chops to pull off what […] Read more
The folks behind Kamisama no Memochou must be thrilled, because the series hasn’t gotten this much free pub since the anime went off the air. Haiyore! Nyaruko-san W – 03 It struck me this week that Haiyore! is really sort of cheating – in a way, they’ve found a loophole […] Read more
