The most important part of getting to this episode was trying to avoid even the slightest semblance of any spoilers – be it the post title, or the preview sentence you see in Google Reader. But I knew some shit had hit the fan when even Divine over at Random Curiosity was posting about it. [...]
It started with Stripey’s post about what your top 5 says about you. And in my comment, I realized that of my 5 favorites, 4 came from 2007 (Code Geass, Gurren Lagann, Seto no Hanayome, Higurashi Kai), and the other candidates aired in 2006 (Haruhi season 1, Higurashi season 1). And then I realized all [...]
Yuu Kobayashi scares me. At least her drawings do. Behind those hideous drawings is a psychotic mind, I’m sure of it. However, when she goes nuts voicing a character, well, let’s just say I’m much more forgiving, because it’s so much fun. And this off-the-wall episode was probably the best episode of Nyan Koi so [...]
How is it possible that my heart is breaking so much for someone who as recently as two episodes ago was reveling in her complete depravity and lack of compassion? Also, this is now the second time that I wished I’d saved last week’s title (Moetrice’s sadness) for this week… I bet I’m also going [...]
The third episode of Sora no Otoshimono was pretty good even though there were no flying pantsu this time around, but I’ve decided to stick with writing about Nyan Koi. Both shows have been nice surprises (SNO moreso, because I thought it would be terrible), so you can’t go wrong watching either.
This is the last of the fall 2009 impressions series of posts. Is calling Kuchu Buranko pretentious fair? Is calling Kuchu Buranko interesting fair? Is calling Kuchu Buranko fun to watch fair? Hmm, I have mixed opinions on all three. 2D or 3D?
Several episodes ago, I wondered if Umineko would ever be able to develop their characters as richly as Higurashi had. I was very skeptical then, simply because of the much larger cast they had to work with. And while I feel safe in saying that Umineko will never do as good a job (although to [...]
I hesitated to write this post, simply because I still don’t know if I’m committing to Nyan Koi. I figured it was the default show I’d follow. It’s certainly lived up to expectations so far. But now I’m sort of waffling between this and Sora no Otoshimono, simply because of the equally insane, stupid, brilliant [...]
Argh, I’m very sad to see this show end. Even though the romances didn’t pan out, I hope they’ll have a second season that’ll continue the love triangle/square and settle the final Saku and Mii-chan pairing.
Geez, I don’t even know where to begin. I can’t tell if we’re getting any real clues, or the story is just meant to mess with us and throw as many random events as possible. Anyway, let’s try to put some pieces together.
