Last Exile: Ginyoku no Fam – 14 Believe it or not, I take no pleasure in the heaps of abuse Fam (the character, not the show) has been receiving lately. I really hoped she’d come around and vindicate her presence in the series. The fully duality of Last Exile: Fam […] Read more
Brave 10 – 03 It’s always fun to see a good old-fashioned samurai/ninja period piece, even if this one is aimed more at Higashi-Ikebukuro than Akihabara or the middle school. As always, Brave 10 is fun in it’s slightly gender-bending and silly way, with this week mostly being taken up […] Read more
In Xanadu, a stately pleasure dome did Kublai Khan decree… Gundam AGE – 14 I guess part of the fun of being a GUNDAM fan is knowing exactly what’s coming, and waiting for it to happen. But that didn’t lessen the sadness for me one bit. Ah Yurin, sweet, Yurin […] Read more
I wish I had better things to say about both these series, as I really want to like them more than I do – especially “Fam”. High School D x D – 02 The second episode of HSDxD didn’t do a whole lot more for me than the first one […] Read more
One of the shows in this digest made some real progress this week, and it should be pretty obvious which one it was… Gundam AGE – 13 This seems to have been the episode that Gundam fans were waiting for, and it’s easy to see why. You can look at […] Read more
I think JC Staff, realizing that too much time has passed for “Shana” to ever return to its glory days as a commercial success, has pretty well decided to stop worrying and love the bomb. At this point they don’t seem too concerned with anything except throwing as much Shana-porn […] Read more
Shakugan no Shana III – 11 Shakugan no Shana has really hit its stride, with the last few episodes offering up arguably the best run since the first season. I confess, I didn’t expect Margery and Satou to be the first main couple to get it on, but since it’s […] Read more
Welcome to another slice-of-life Tuesday… Kimi to Boku – 11 I’ll give Kimi to Boku credit for worming its way into my brain a little – I’m going to miss it when it goes on hiatus for a season, which I would have seriously doubted after three or four episodes. […] Read more
Shakugan no Shana III – 10 After what was a pretty slow buildup, Shana III is certainly dispensing the action fast and furious now. Crimson Lords are kicking it fast and furious, with Fecor apparently eliminated last week and Purson being killed by Rebecca and Uvall by Shana this week. […] Read more
Kimi to Boku – 10 I’ll give this series credit – it knows exactly what the target audience is, and goes straight for the jugular. Yet another cross-dressing ep this week, as it’s culture festival time. KtB manages to get all but Yuki (who was himself dressed as Ketaro for […] Read more
