As the previous episode of Glass Fleet had Michel’s defeat Count John Falls ships in battle, this episode of Glass Fleet with one of Vetti’s military people giving a report of what happened between Count John Fall, and People’s Army. As one of Vetti’s miltary leaders is giving the report to Vetti, I thought that [...]

As the previous episode of Glass Fleet ended with Michel’s home coming under attack, this episode starts with Michel helping the resistance Count John Fall (who appeared in episode 5). What caught my eye in the opening bit of this episode is that Count John Fall mentioned that a person named Goruda, which must have [...]

As the previous episode was frustrating for me to watch, I thought that this episode of Glass Fleet gave a decent insight of Michel and her family background. As most of this episode is dedicated to Michel and her family, Vettai is given a brief appearance in this episode, where he is meeting Rachael. As the [...]

As the previous episode had the Puppet Squadron disguise themselves as merchants, as the episode plays out, their goal is to capture Michel, and return her/him to Vettai. As Michel is seen helping is alleged brother on board Cleo’s glass ship, I was very interested in fact in that this mysterious individual was Michel’s brother, [...]

As the previous episode was one big battle between Vettai and Creo, this episode starts off with the glass ship, taking on another aristocratic general in Vettai’s army. My thoughts regarding the big aristocrat leader that is pitted against Creo’s glass ship in this episode is that, I think that Count John Fall is meant to [...]

As the previous episode of Glass Fleet had Vettai and Creo about to battle one another, this episode is mainly centred on the fight that occurs between the two. Despite that is episode mainly focuses on Creo and Vettai fighting one another in this episode, I liked how this episode dropped some clues in the [...]

As the previous episode of Glass Fleet was an episode where the animation was pretty bad in general, I thought that this episode’s animation was set at a reasonable standard. After the events of the previous episode, this episode starts off with Vettai and Ralph talking to another. The conversation that Vettai and Ralph have [...]

As the previous episode of Glass Fleet was the standard first episode, where there’s lots of character introductions, and where you are thrown into the middle of the show, this episode continues with some more character introductions (introduces Creo and his crew members), while the plot of the show also gets a bit thicker (when [...]

...too darn hot here again today -- 98F (37C). Hopefully there won't be another run of 98 (37C), 100 (38C), 102 (39C), 99 like there was last month. Hopefully the AC at home is working again when I get back there in a few hours... AC went on the fritz yesterday and only worked on and off, so it was a nice humid 85F (29C) in my room for most of the day (and night). That'll sap your motivation to do anything... did read through half of Zero no Tsukaima, so I'll be able to write a bit about the first episode of the anime later on today, as well as finish up Haruhi and maybe the other things left over from the spring season that finished up. And on the schedule of new shows for today (might not be able to watch them today, though, depends..), Coyote Ragtime Show and Bokura ga Ita.And in other news, Anime Expo is going on so there's some license news and such to report: ADV: Nerima Daikon Brothers - After a few eps it kinda got old.... Paniponi Dash! - GJ! Y'all have fun subbing it and translating all the stuff on the blackboard ;) Say they're still doing the ARIA manga, no comment on whether or not they have or will try to acquire the anime. FUNimation: Glass Fleet (Garasu no Kantai) - Did anybody watch this? Geneon: Black Lagoon - I hear it's good, yes? ;) Paradise Kiss Seven Seas: Kashimashi manga Shinigami no Ballad novels - Glad somebody picked it up :) Kodomo no Jikan manga - A few months back, Kaworu Watashiya wrote in her online diary that an English translation was going to be released, but I didn't believe it when I read it. Hmmm.... I still have a very hard time seeing this actually being released and put on bookstore shelves. And that's about it for now. If there's any more news out of Anime Expo I'll add it ;)

Someone once told Michelle that when people die they become stars. This explains SO much about Michelle… Unfortunately, I don’t have much of an idea what happened in this episode; the dialogue was beyond me for most of it and I wasn’t very interested. I would have been totally willing to give up on [...]
