I tried to turn this post into a parody of A Visit From St. Nicholas, to no avail. At any rate - the list has been compiled, the requisite energy drinks and granola bars purchased, and tomorrow I sally forth at 4:30 AM for the brave new world that is the third day of Comiket 71. Wish me luck. A report will be forthcoming...

Okay, so you're not really getting a sneak peak at anything special. What I've posted below is my "article" for J-Music Ignited's End of Year dealie -I usually do research/profiles for the site-. Seeing as I couldn't help but mention anime and seeing as I spent my time trying to create it rather than making [...]

I don’t know if you noticed, but these are chaotic times- so chaotic, in fact, that even the great and righteous Lord Liu Bei cannot handle it all. Never fear, however, for Liu Bei is about to meet the most HARD GAY man of the era- the legendary Zhuge Liang (Huge Wang).
Liu Bei apologises for [...]

“Two thousand and six” is almost over and I feel obligated for some reason to look back on the past year. However, I am confronted with a problem that I believe happens commonly among academics: my sense of a year’s time is screwed up. For me, the beginning of the year isn’t January 1 but [...]

Darkshaunz prepares for the final farewell.
Score: 8.9/10 (animation quality seems to have dipped slightly)
After a long wait for this episode to be released, I felt a slight need to re-adjust myself after a relatively long grace period of badassery. Luckily, the action juice came early with the intense deployment of Balalaika’s men early on. The [...]

3. ARIA The NATURAL
Ahh, Venice. Shame it’s sinking. Perhaps that’s why they packed it up and moved it to Mars.
All good things must come to an end, I suppose. But when it comes to a good thing like Aria, I just can’t let go. Life without Aria? Say it [...]

It’s that time again. We’ve got Mikuru, Yuki, and now it’s the homo’s turn. Wait, who’s the one that decided he was GAR for Kyon anyway? Oh whatever. The point is he has not four, but five choices to choose from. I can recognize the first choice as the ever so awesome Johnny Young Bosch [...]

Well with the end of the year approaching and with the Fall Season over, it’s time to give my view on the notable series of 2006. Series that made you cry “MOÉ”, series that made you bash your head against the desk, series that made you want more, and series that make you cringe it [...]

Jim Henson’s 1985 film Labyrinth is one of my all-time favorite movies. Needless to say, I was thrilled to hear that Tokyopop was publishing a continuation of the story in manga format. This Christmas, I received volume one from Rachel - which made me very, very happy. So how did the first volume hold [...]

Impressions/Thoughts:
Oh my god. This episode was godly. The action was so intense I was literally sitting not he edge of my seat! The Guren Mk II vs. Lancelot battle was awesome! And of course I was rooting for Kallen. Heh, Suzaku really thought he had Zero/Lelouch but didn’t count on C.C. coming to [...]

For those interested, there’s a torrent out now on Tokyo Toshokan of Material/Zero, the little artbook that came with Fate/Zero. While flippin’ through it, I’ve noticed how every single guy looks extremely badass in suits, except Waver. He looks like this war’s Shinji. Tokiomi THosaka looks the most gar, what with his little goatee, but [...]

If you’ve been wondering where the heck I’ve been for the past few days… well, it’s like this. We’ve recently moved from one house to another, and upon arrival, I found out that our wireless didn’t work.

Episode rating: 9/10
Another Mai centric episode for great justice, also more love for Sayuri who is quickly rising in my ranks despite my initial dislike for her.
Sayuri and Kyon’ichi manage to avoid Mai’s expulsion by passing off the sword act as part of the program for the dance, this [...]

Recently, meaning today, I started reading a new manga series by the name To-love-ru. I stumbled across this series when reading a post on Hongfre. It just happened to be mentioned. Very little was said about it, but I decided to check it out due to curiosity. I’m really glad I [...]
