[ Episode 20: Rose Maddered-Color War ]
This episode was filled with Wilhelmina-awesomeness! ^__^
If there’s one thing I love about Shana are the fights. Whenever one takes place it is sure to be quite exciting. This one is no exception and I never took my eyes off of it for a second. Wilhelmina is very impressive [...]

[ Episode 48: Bonds ]
Man, pretty much nothing happened in this episode. Yeah we got to see/hear why Sai is the way he is and then hear a absolutely pointless speech from Naruto about how he’s going to “take back” Sasuke from Orochimaru. Even in the manga now Naruto still doesn’t seem to understand that [...]

Rating: 9.2/10
Impressions:
Hiromi is love! Aiko has definitely lost what little chance she had with Shinichiro, while it doesn’t seem like Noe is having much luck either. I guess the next few episodes are either gonna have Shin break up with Noe, or re-realise his love for her. I like the former idea much better, as [...]

Seriously, that’s one thing that I can never do properly.
For example, look at this picture. How old do you think she is?
I guessed 20-21.

When I first saw a piece of cover art for Madame Mirage, I thought is was some kind of Carmen Sandiego bit. Brunette with a wide-brimmed hat, champagne flute in hand, surrounded by tuxedo-clad assailants. How will Carmen get out of this predicament? I was wrong, of course. The two have little in [...]

03/10/2008 12:19 AM EDTHatenkou Yuugi: “Go for it, tentacles! I’m rooting for you!” >>
Baroqueheat is probably the best character of Hatenkou Yuugi. Quite the saucy lad indeed.
Aside from the first episode, I think this has been my favorite episode of Hatenkou Yuugi yet. It was a simple tale of wanting to see the sky (which reminds me of sola), but, as always, the actions of Rahzel, Alzeid, and [...]

***pictures to be added***
With so many seiyuu (voice actors/actresses) up and about for both anime and Japanese dubbing, it’s about time someone started recognizing the great talent that has emerged. Not everyone can make it as a seiyuu, and, obviously, not all seiyuu can go above and beyond simply being a “fitting character voice”. As [...]

Here are some awesome character bento designs for the Kamen Rider Kiva. First up is the charaben taken off Bandai’s Charaben Weblog.
Next up is the charaben made by youme-san, pretty neat looking as well. Makes me wonder why my mom doesn’t make me bento lunches like this.
But my favorite Kiva character bento is this one [...]

Summary:
We get a bit of resolution to the Ai fiasco, as Ai tries to break up to Miyokichi but gets denied. In response, Miyokichi asks Noe to curse his heart so that he won’t be hurt when Ai leaves him. Interestingly enough, Ai decides she has graduated from Shinichiro, so I guess she [...]

*Sniff* Omedetou *Sniff*
I’m really, really, glad I decided to catch up on ARIA the ORIGINATION first. The anime that always makes me smile didn’t disappoint. With deftoned’s teaser, I had an idea of what was going to happen, but this was a lot grander than what I initially thought. The word “Prima” was floating around [...]
