2013 Anime Year in Review – Wrap-up

January 2, 2014Guardian EnzoUncategorized2013 in Review, Anime, reviews, Season Reviews
Comments (18)

Four words I never thought I’d say pertaining to anime – thank goodness for summer. As I speculated in the 2012 edition of this post, 2013 didn’t turn out to be quite the year 2012 was.  But thanks to a better second half than first, it recovered from looking like […] Read more

2013 Anime Year in Review, Part II: #11-20

This was one brutally hard list to compile. Without a doubt, the cuts for this list were even harder this year than the ones for the Top 10.  Looking at the first 10 as compared to last year, I think they come up short as a group.  The second 10 […] Read more

2013 Anime Year in Review: The Top 10

There’s really only one thing wrong with this year’s #1 series. Once Shin Sekai Yori was revealed as my #2 anime for 2013, there certainly wasn’t much mystery left about the last entry on the list.  It could only be Coppelion.  Or… not. #1 – Hunter X Hunter 2011 Believe […] Read more

Fall 2013 Straw Poll

The people’s choice was clear this time around. Thanks for participating in the straw poll, which gave a clear win to Kyoukai no Kanata.  Happily, that’s the one on the list that looks like it’s going to make the cut – the last two eps have been much better.  Yozakura […] Read more

Fall 2013 Check-in

There’s a decidedly retro look to Fall 2013 – if you ignore the avalanche of bad CGI, anyway. More so than in most seasons, Fall 2013 has played out largely as I expected – so far anyway.  There are a lot of shows that fall into the broad “good” category, […] Read more

Summer 2013 Check-in

August 3, 2013Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, reviews, Season Previews, Season Reviews
Comments (57)

It’s a bit tough on me as a blogger, but by Summer’s usually low standards this season looks quite good so far. After what can only be called a fairly disappointing Spring, Summer 2013 has a chance to make up some of the lost ground.  Spring tends to be anime’s […] Read more

Spring 2013 Check-in – and Spring 2012 Retrospective

April 28, 2013Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, reviews, Season Previews, Season Reviews
Comments (44)

Three weeks in, Spring 2013 looks pretty good. My take going into this season was that it looked solid – much better than Winter, but not as loaded with intriguing series as Spring of 2012* (the best season in five years, probably).  At this point that’s still where I stand, […] Read more

Best of the Best: 2012

It’s “Oscar” season, once again time to look back and single out the best of the year in anime.  And the winners are…    Best Song: “”Above Your Hand” by Annabel – Sankarea ED I absolutely loved this ED, both for the song itself and the animation sequence. Honorable Mention: […] Read more

2012 Anime Year in Review – Wrap-up

Comments (15)

Without a doubt, 2012 was a very good year to be an anime fan. A while back I made a post about what I consider the best anime season ever, Spring of 2007.  In that post (which was right about the beginning of Spring 2012) I speculated that the coming […] Read more
