K-ON!

k-on2

I wonder if the excitement over K-ON! has been tempered a bit amidst all the Haruhi pandemonium. Not that one show takes away from another, but K-ON! was the big, bad KyoAni hit on the block. Now, it feels like the second banana waiting in the shadows for the next Haruhi release. You can’t help [...]

Christmas episodes in May always make me pine for the winter. But I guess any semblance of winter is now gone, as the recent heat and humidity has made me sluggish, slow and sleepy. The Sawa-chan you once knew and loved is no more.

This week’s school festival performance certainly was no GOD KNOWS or LOST MY MUSIC. I’m really disappointed that we’re six episodes in and KyoAni keeps cutting out on the group as soon as they start playing. The music video was poorly done. Seriously, just show the girls playing their instruments. How do we know the [...]

Yes! Recycled joke! I’m going to keep this joke going until KyoAni stops triggering flags.

I’m amused [...]

As they continued to grow closer, practicing for the upcoming school [...]

I wonder if this episode will spark the cult of Ui. As well as the cult of Mio’s squishy fingers.

If one could possibly become apoplectic from moe overload, I think K-ON! would be the show to push that button. There were a couple of instances during the show when my head almost went *poof!* like Mio’s. Seriously, I’m not sure if I’m going to be able to make it to the end of the [...]

I’m not going to bother writing a summary, since so many others have already done a mighty fine job of doing so (subculture, randomc, fukazenna!, Tenka Seiha et al.), so I’m just focusing on my general thoughts. But in case you’re really lazy, here’s what happened. Girl enters high school. Girl needs to join a [...]
