The Bakuman death march continues…

Yumekui Merry, episode 3: Merry in the Sky with Donuts

by RP January 21, 2011

It’s been a while since I’ve written about a show I liked. I feel rejuvenated. Although ironically, I could totally use a good night’s sleep.

Bakuman, episode 15: The way of the characters

by RP January 17, 2011

I really liked the first 8 minutes of the episode, then Miho showed up and… I’m just going to forget about the last half of the episode. Ok, she wasn’t awful, but soooo boring. I feel like the Starbust zombie. Boring. Miho is boring me to death, and I’m already dead. She’s boring me back [...]

Yumekui Merry, episode 2: Nightmares and nymphs

by RP January 16, 2011

After debating on whether to pick up a show or not in the Winter season, I decided to go ahead and blog Yumekui Merry after seeing it build on a pretty solid first episode.

Bakuman, episode 14: Let’s draw level grinding RPGs!

by RP January 9, 2011

Bakuman is back for a second coeur, with a better ED, but pretty much the same, embarrassingly, terrible OP.

Gosick First Impressions

by RP January 9, 2011

I think the death knell for a mystery is to have unintelligent writing. You can get away with bizarre plots and unlikeable characters, but the writing has to be smart. It has to stay at least one step ahead of the viewer, otherwise the brilliance of the detective extraordinaire will be for naught.

Yumekui Merry First Impressions

by RP January 8, 2011

I admit I don’t know much about Touhou or the Touhou look, but I’ve seen several comments comparing Merry’s look to the Touhou look… in which case I have to say I really dig the Touhou look.
