  The main male protagonist with a penchant for everything Canada. As promised in my last blog entry for Legend of Legendary Heroes, I am going to review Katanagatari today. Written by the same person who also does Bakemonogatari (those two titles are not related though – but comparisons will be inevitable), this anime then [...] Related posts:Review: Tears to Tiara (ティアーズ・トゥ・ティアラ) Review: Rozen Maiden (ローゼンメイデン) + Träumend (ローゼンメイデン ~ トロイメント) + Ouvertüre (ローゼンメイデン・オーベルテューレ) Review: Kaze no Stigma (風のスティグマ) Review: Bakemonogatari (化物語) Review: Kino no Tabi (キノの旅 – the Beautiful World) Related posts brought to you by Yet Another Related Posts Plugin.

The main title male protagonist, one of the two best characters in this anime, fully laden with cuteness from outside. But he has a dark pastime… The last review for this year before I hightailed my way to Christmas and New Year celebrations would be for the partially censored version of Seikon no Qwaser (read: [...] Related posts:Review: Starship Operators (スターシップ・オペレーターズ) Review: Kaze no Stigma (風のスティグマ) Review: Monochrome Factor (モノクローム・ファクター) Review: Oh!

So I’m on Twitter and Scott Green tweets about this Samurai Champloo/Nujabes tribute done by a guy that calls himself Sinitus Tempo.  After listening to his “Born Legends” EP, he’s got chops. I also like how he throws in samples from the show in the mix.  The rest of the album is composed of jazz-infused [Full Article] Related posts:Samurai Champloo Composer Dead at 36 from Auto Accident Funimation to Distribute Samurai Champloo for Geneon New Funimation Releases for June: Samurai Champloo, KKM, Romeo x Juliet, Kaze no Stigma Visual Novel Developer Minori in Talks with English Fan Translation Group Halo Legends Trailer and More Information

The main male protagonist. As promised in this blog’s last entry, today’s review is for a 2008 anime titled Toaru Majutsu no Index, therefore it will compete with Wolf and Spice for the ‘Anime of the Year 2008’ title. This series side-story A Certain Scientific Railgun that I originally planned to watch after this title [...] Related posts:Review: Kaze no Stigma (風のスティグマ) Review: Needless (ニードレス) Review: Minami-ke (みなみけ) S1 Review: Wolf and Spice 2 (狼と香辛料Ⅱ) Review: Koukaku no Regios (鋼殻のレギオス) Related posts brought to you by Yet Another Related Posts Plugin.

 I like how she has no legs. I don't usually do a lot of these sorts of posts, but I'm REALLY excited about the upcoming Kaichou wa Maid-sama anime, and the drama CD has some really phenomenal talent-- most notably Tomokazu "Kyon" Sugita as male lead Usui --so I've wanted to know if he would take on the role in the anime as well.Well, word just came out on Natalie.mu, and unfortunately no Sugita. Usui will be played by Nobuhiko Okamoto, who played Shin in Persona -trinity soul- and is currently playing Luke in The Sacred Blacksmith. I'm a little disappointed there, but let's see the rest of the cast:Reluctant heroine Misaki Ayukawa will be voiced by Ayumi Fujimura ( Nabari no Ou's Raimei, Kaze no Stigma's Ayano Kannagi, Tegami Bachi's Niche). On the drama CD it was Sanae Kobayashi ( D.Gray-Man's Allen Walker). I've liked pretty much every role that I've heard Fujimura play, so I can't really complain here.  Er-- sorry guys, a little busy... Joining them are Aki Toyosaki (The Sacred Blackmith's Lisa) as maid cafe owner Satsuki (voiced by Rie "Chii" Tanaka on the drama CD) and newcomer Hiromi Igarashi as Satsuki's relative Aoi, originally voiced by Yuki Kaida.I think this'll be a fine cast, but I still wish we coulda gotten Sugita as Usui though. I wonder if he's too busy with Haruhi stuff?

The lecherous main male protagonist, on top of one of his sexual conquests. This review of Kaze no Stigma will be the last for quite some time, as the usual end-of-year activities eats up my free time. Kaze no Stigma is a shounen 2007 anime, which will then compete with the newly crowned ‘Anime of [...] Related posts:Review: Starship Operators (スターシップ・オペレーターズ) Review: Hoshi no Koe (ほしのこえ) Review: Speed Grapher (スピードグラファー) Review: Wolf and Spice 2 (狼と香辛料Ⅱ) Review: Monochrome Factor (モノクローム・ファクター) Related posts brought to you by Yet Another Related Posts Plugin.

The main male protagonist frolicking with his willing and submissive boyfriend as the foreplay for… The next random anime I picked from my backlog is Monochrome Factor. This is a 2008 anime, so I suppose that it will compete with Wolf and Spice for the ‘Anime of the Year 2008’ title.
