Now, don’t let the title fool you. I like Tokyopop. I like their treatment of Loveless, and I applaud them for the excellent no-holds-barred attitude they have for the racier and less socially acceptable aspects. However.. they have serious issues. I remember being annoyed with these same problems in the first volume, but I [...]

Okay, screw the multiple proposals. Screw all the people who are to conquer Firiel and Roux. Screw Roux’ and Firiel’s crumbling relationship, only because Roux doesn’t want to get her involved. Heck, even Firiel crying was not needed to make this episode absolutely awesome. All I needed was Adale in bunny-ears. I’m never really into [...]

Just went through parts of my blog. It seems Blogger sorta 'saves' my old posts. Save meaning the layout, the colours and even my header. So, if you actually go to my olders posts, you will see my old Ah! My Goddess banner instead of the latest one. And the whole blog will be in yellow. Oh, and the sidebar lists of latest posts won't be updated. The only place my "Latest Posts" list is up to date is the main page. I tried clearing my cache but it didn't seem to work. Anyone know how to solve this? If you do, please do tell. I really appreciate it. Anyway, just a little heads-up. Sorry bout that. =) P.S: Oh, and I'm listed on Anime Nano now. Thanks Hung, and for those who have anime blogs, get your site listed too. It's cool, trust me. >>> Miscellaneous Tags: Blog , Blogs , Blogging , Miscellaneous , Blog Problem , Updates , Tenjou

You know, for the stuff I missed out on before, I'm really in favour of these re-issues. But I wonder, with all these re-issues popping up nowadays (e.g MP-01 Optimus Prime, Meg from Alter, Saber from Clayz), are these figures I'm collecting going to be worth less and less as time passes? I wouldn't say I'm doing this for the re-sale value, god knows if there even is one, but it's nice to know these PVC figures I buy at rather high prices are actually still worth something. Oh well, this figure of Kos-Mos is something I don't mind getting as a re-sale. It's got a nice sexy pose, one you wouldn't normally see Kos-Mos doing. It was released way back in December 2005, and whoever's seen it should know it's quite well sculpted. I want one! Name: Kos-Mos 1/8 scale PVC Manufacturer: Alter Date Released: December 2005 Re-issue Date: November 2006 Price: 4800 Yen >>> Toyzlog Tags: PVC Figures , Figurines , Toys , Anime , Anime Toys , Japanese Toys , Alter , Xenosaga , Kos-Mos , Tenjou

I went for the first time last year and had a blast. Not my first convention, but it was much larger than AUSA, let me tell ya. Though dissappointed in the musical guest (The Indigo), I nonetheless got my hands on somethings I was gunning for: A Seigaku T-shirt (*sigh* one size too small (M)) [...]

So it turns out that poor Satoko-chan is actually a victim of abuse by her so-called uncle. Oishii-san and Takano-san seem to be much more evil in this arc, while the Kantoku is being presented as the “good guy” for now. Quite a lot of emo facial distortions by Satoko this episode, and I’m very [...]

This episode marks the end of the Ensei arc. He reveals why he came, and takes off at the end of the episode. Unfortunately, my crappy Japanese skills weren’t enough to find out why he came in the first place, but apparently, his task was to deliver something. Ryuuki also managed to produce a law [...]

Only one season ago and the hell girl series, Jigoku Shoujo, was a rousing success surely destined for gold stock status at the ASX. Flash forwards to now and it's desperately scraping it's way out the pits of bronze, where only the most questionable series languish. What exactly happened? It gave the fans what they wanted. It was an interesting concept with a simple format. Each week some

I now unashamedly love School Rumble. I have to admit, in the first season, the first few episodes took a while to get into, but once I got into it, it just kept getting better and better. Second season? OP and ED took a while to get used to, but now they're in my head at [...]

The strings of a Spanish guitar float in the air. A chambermaid steps into center stage. She dances. With her lightning-quick moves, graceful leaps, and peculiar partner, the stoic Roberta outclasses the temperamental Revy. In fairness, it is Revy’s heroics, which caused her injury and concussion. Revy surprises audiences with instinctive protectiveness, [...]

Damnit. I’ve been getting way too much spam from a certain IP addy from Amsterdam. Thank goodness for Akismet. Still, I must find better plugins to prevent this type of attack. T__T

Actually, Ichijo was sneaking around the woods this episode, involved in some suspicious activities. The students were divided into teams of four by [...]

Those damn Na Tunk slave traders are out kidnapping women again, but one particular piece of cargo is heavily chained. Unfortunately, the chains are made out of really cheap metal, and the woman is able to free herself and claw-slaughter all the sailors. When Benawi and Kuruo reach the scene, the woman is [...]

I feel the early stages of Postpartum depression coming on. Just one more episode…ngh. Noein’s overall creepiness sure as hell didn’t disappoint. I literally recoiled in horror when he came sloshing forward out of the bright light like some kind of skeletal fetus. I kept half expecting placenta remnants to start gushing out but you [...]

When I first heard about Black Lagoon I thought to myself: oh great, another Cowboy Bebop clone. I placed Dutch as Jet, Revy as Faye, Benny as an older Ed, and Rock as a Spike-in-training. Damn, was I wrong. Black Lagoon is just a mix of hardcore, no-holds-barred action, foul, harsh language, and enough intriuge to fill [...]

WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD Alritee, now that both Air Gear and Soul Link are out, first up is Air Gear. This whole ep is about Ikki’s ditzy homeroom teacher (the one that always seems horny but in reality, is actually afraid that all guys are trying to rape her -_-;;). From what I believe, this is [...]
