It's been a while since my last post (as usual, this shouldn't be anything new to people who've been with this blog from the beginning). In fact, for a while I've been contemplating doing away with the blog, maybe starting from scratch, or broadening the content. However, this blog was created out of my love for the Japanese animated format of storytelling, and for that it will remain.

*sigh* I don’t feel like writing much. I just don’t have the enthusiasm. However, after finishing this week’s episode of Chokotto Sister, an idea came to mind. In episode 11, the lovely comedy seen in many earlier episodes was dramatically lessened and replaced with burning, passionate angst. Sometimes the angst simply makes the anime. Thank [...]

Hakuoro here. Although I have finally managed to add Kuuya to my harem, it is a bittersweet victory. No matter how successful I am with my harem, the demands of my monstrous HARD GAY side refuse to disappear, and I worry that it will soon jeopardise everything that I have worked for…

While browsing some moelicious books in Toranaona, I ran into this book. Actually, 「Futurecode」 is more like a "preview doujinshi" advertising other Range Murata's works such as 「Formcode」 than a real book.
「Futurecode」 is 24 pages long (cover included), B4-sized, contains 100% color...

When I saw this figure, I immediately knew what the post title would be. Though, I played around with the idea of adding "hyper-busty" instead of regular busty. Oh well, it doesn't matter a whole lot. Kotobukiya just announced a busty, bikini-clad Tama-nee PVC from ToHearts 2 XRATED. That's not to say that the figure [...]

Now, now. There is no need to cry for the loss of my wallet. It will all be better soon, I promise.
Being the philosopher I don’t claim to be, I can’t help but to think of the future. I can say that it looks very bleak for my wallet, especially since I’m [...]

This episode was snoringly boring. Though, what I did enjoy was the high quality of the art which lasted throughout the entirety of the episode. Basically there was just more story/plot development and it wasn’t done very efficiently or in any sort of speedy manner. I’m guessing they wanted to give [...]

Hey, I know you Death Note fans are going to like this one. Well, I'm assuming you will anyway. The trailer for the second and final Death Note film has been put up online. The title for the second of two films is Death Note: The Last Name. And let me just be unceremonious and [...]

This isn't even really news so much as it is an advertisement for Nissan, but it looks like Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex - Solid State Society will feature a pair of concept cars from Nissan. Look, I already told you it wasn't really news… we can talk about something else if you [...]

Impressions:
I’m glad the story is becoming far more interesting, especially as the animation is very inconsistent. It makes me wonder if the animators just slack through some episodes. While eps 9 and 10 were average in terms of character animation, I have seen a lot worse. Ah well, enough of me criticising that. I actually [...]

Freaking dialouge heavy episode - I could almost cry for the subbers. Then again, that means that it provides a lot of information, which sure enough is useful for making our deductions.
First up, we finally get a peek into the reason why these people claw their necks till they die. Literally, its an itch - [...]
