I read this some time last year, but never got to blog about it. This dramatic manga about a guide dog and a girl who trained him lands on my favorite manga list. I have an extreme soft spot for animals… Even more so with dogs. ^_^ Re-reading this now got me crying again because [...]

Watashi no Shounen is a single-volume shoujo manga about Kazuya and Serena who are long childhood friends. Their mothers are friends and, since Serena’s older, she was given (more like taken) the chance to take care of Kazuya. This is a happy-themed shoujo that is half about Serena’s longing to become Kazuya’s girlfriend then the [...]

Oh, Ichigo fights with his inner Hollow. Though I like to see more Byakuya’s appearances but it’s really weird to see him shows up all of the sudden. Well, I’m sure Kariya is an extra but I can’t really remember about Byakuya appeared during the fight in the manga. Anyway, Ichigo is [...]

Suigintou’s character song from Rozen Maiden traumend. I LOVE Haruka Shimotsuki.
Took me a while to get this done, but since I can’t find it on google I guess it’s better late than never. LOL. Awesome song as usual from Haruka Shimotsuki and myu. Enjoy.
「彼方からの鎮魂歌」
performed by kukui
無意識の海へと 脆く傷付いた躯を沈めた
繰り返す面影に ただ愛が欲しいと願う
不安定な(ゆれうごく)命に贈る 彼方からの鎮魂歌(レクイエム)
美しく残酷な旋律(メロディ)
永遠に刻まれた 逆(さか)の十字に祈りを
強すぎる想いは歪みだす
広がりゆく波紋 同じ水面に佇んだ少女は
闇色を纏う羽 この背にも欲しいと願う
不完全な(ガラクタの)命を厭う 貴女に薔薇の誓いを
心地よく響いてる旋律(メロディ)
遠く近くざわめく 真の十字に魅せられ
流れゆく時間は 歪みだす
不確かな未来を宿す 紅い瞳に眠りを
楽園へ誘う旋律(メロディ)
伝う術を知らない 心に燈る光を
密やかに抱いたそのままで・・・

Very awesome episode. Reideen/Junki kicked ass as usual and the Jin-Rai were actually useful! That possessed unit, Hayate, can really tear down with some speed though since it was able to get beyond 5km away from everyone. Though for some reason I was expecting a larger explosion since it was [...]

Oh no, Ren lost her cool and start consuming everything in the wired world. It’s really funny to see all those people in the wired world run like mad man and screaming for their lives. At first, I match this anime with the movie called “Matrix” but now I think it’s more [...]

Expectations were high for the new Hellsing Ultimate, Volume Three OVA, and it didn’t disappoint. Volume Three in the OVA picks up at volume three in the manga:
The Hellsing organization is in shambles after a devastating attack on their London base by two powerful, but artificially manufactured, vampires. The Valentine brothers, Luke and [...]

According to Moon Phase Zakki, the latest issue of Comptiq has revealed that an anime adaptation of D.C. II is in the works. While being terribly vague (a huge understatement on my part) on the details, it seems to me that a 26-episode series is implied. Or maybe it’s just my imagination.
For the uninitiated, Da [...]

I think I may be the only person out there who finds Shining Tears X Wind quite enjoyable despite that it’s incredibly cliche. Especially the art. I’m a massive fan of Tony. I also like cute elves, so when Elwing appeared in episode 5, I knew what had to be done.

Sorry for the bad pun, but I miss our flaming-sword-wielding, melon-pan-munching, loli heroine. Well, it won’t be long now because Shakugan no Shana is slated to air its second season this coming October. So, let us all be good little torches and wait for her return and have some fun with Louise and her [...]

05/08/2007 08:14 AM EDTFigure News: Alter breaks away from the Goodsmile / Max Factory collective >>
According to a post today on the official Goodsmile info page, as of this month (May 2007) release information on new Alter products will no longer be appearing on the Goodsmile website. Their recently announced Shinku PVC, due out in August, is noted as the last figure scheduled to be introduced on the site; release announcements for all subsequent figures will be handled by Alter exclusively (though Goodsmile will continue to handle inquiries regarding earlier announced and previously released figures until the end of September).
Whether this has any direct relation to the GA Graphics fumble from earlier in the day is unclear; I'd guess there's some connection, though probably just one of crossed wires as control of the company's press releases and marketing strategy changes hands. I wish Alter all the best as they sail into the uncharted waters of independent operation, and hope the transition goes smoothly for all concerned. (no more)

I don’t normally pay attention to the background music in anime but there are just some tracks that become indelibly associated with key scenes. When I hear Salva Nos (Yuki Kajiura: Noir), I always think to myself that Kirika is going to kick some serious ass. Likewise when Foxy Doll (EDISON: Black Lagoon) comes on, [...]

No, the Manga Bible is not an exhaustive collection of manga titles and terms. It's the Holy Bible, depicted in Manga form. I can't find the words to describe how awesome that is.
