I never thought all that much about Kimi to Boku during its run, but now that it’s ending I’ve become aware that I’m really going to miss it. Fittingly for a show that never worried too much about plot, KtB leaves the airwaves forever with an episode as thoughtful and […] Read more
As always it’s a mixed bag with AGE – there’s some head-on-desk stuff here for sure – but on balance, this is the first ep in a while that makes me really curious to see what happens next. Mobile Suit Gundam AGE – 36 Firs things first – I think […] Read more
The idea that Ishihara might not be human actually explains a lot. Mobile Suit Gundam AGE – 35 Things are definitely getting interesting on AGE, as the pieces for what look like the last extended arc are falling into place. I’m once again struck by how emotionally tone-deaf Flit is. […] Read more
Come on Girls, just admit it – you’d do the same thing, if given half a chance… Mobile Suit Gundam AGE – 34 The moment we’ve all been waiting for is upon us – Asemu (Toriumi Kousuke) is indeed back, but you can call him “Captain Ash”. He’s leading a […] Read more
I know this will come as a shock, but Zaeheart lost a battle. Mobile Suit Gundam AGE – 33 At least we’re starting to get some excuses for why Zaeheart continues to be owned by the generally incompetent Federation – some sort of mysterious plan whereby Ezelcant deliberately gives the […] Read more
As a fellow man I started to worry about Shun a long time ago. Kimi to Boku 2 – 08 Another excellent and very funny episode of KtB this week, and something of a return to the slightly bent quality the series has displayed at times. It seems that this […] Read more
Mary, Mary, where you goin’ to? Mary, Mary, can I go too? The one thing I will vow ya I’d rather die than live without ya, Mary, Mary, where ya goin’ to? Mobile Suit Gundame AGE – 31 A whole slew of new characters made their first meaningful appearances this […] Read more
Most unwise pinky swear ever… Tasogare Otome x Amnesia – 05 If there’s one series of the Spring that I’m almost exactly on the fence about, it’s this one. It pleases me, bores me and irritates me in just about equal amounts. I really do like Kirie as a character […] Read more
Another episode, another personality for Dusk Maiden of Amnesia. Tasogare Otome x Amnesia – 04 After a slapstick beginning and a fairly scary diversion, this week represents what my gut is telling me is the closest thing to a “true” face of this series – a kind of slice-of-death story […] Read more
Wow, they’re still letting Vargas drive? Mobile Suit Gundam AGE – 28 The Asemu arc wraps up in what I would say is mostly unsurprising fashion. Asemu marries the blander than milquetoast Romary (possibly the most lifeless performance KanaHana has ever given), Flit uncovers the huge conspiracy in the Earth […] Read more
