Tag: Michiko to Hatchin

Michiko and Hatchin at first caught my attention due to its rather obvious, but at the same time tenuous-at-best connection to one of my all time favourites, Cowboy Bebop. Initial promotional materials were peppered with western influence, and the production studio behind it all–Manglobe–had made Samurai Champloo in the...

Original Post I hate doing “plot” comics, but I need to establish them going to Japan somehow. There is however a real joke, but it’s not entirely obvious from the strip itself. The joke is that the DVD that Rets is holding is the first season of Gossip Girl....

Casshern Sins: I’m actually starting to enjoy it as it nears the end. Kind of feels pointless, though. Clannad ~After Story~: It’s kind of gotten to the point where I really don’t care, but it’s not that bad. Still very pretty. Jigoku Shoujo Mistuganae: Episodes alternate between being very...

With both the years 2007 and 2008 behind us, it’s time to look ahead to the glorious year of 2009! Well, not really, but there are a number of shows that have come out of 2008 incomplete, so here’s a rundown of the ones I’m watching....

Hey hey hey sup 09 what’s happenin bro Current Casshern Sins: Sins carries itself on art direction more than anything else, but the light musings on what it means to live are interesting. Casshern has also stopped being a pussy, kind of. Clannad ~After Story~: I have no idea...

Current Casshern Sins: Arty retro stuff. Sometimes boring, but mostly good. ChäoS;HEAd: Moe psychological thriller. I can dig it. Crannad ~After Story~: The first arc was great, but now it’s getting into “NOT THIS SHIT AGAIN, KEY” territory. Detroit Metal City: Hahahaha, the rapping episode. ef – a tale...

Original Post Sorry for that week’s delay. I hate doing that, this time especially because I just took a break a month or so ago. I’m getting weak. But that rest was needed, and now I feel pretty decent. Well, I was feeling good until I got home, loaded...

Fall season review comes to a dangerously GORY, SASSY and FABULOUS end. ChäoS;HEAd Holy social commentary Godman! Talk about engrossing.This was almost the most gripping first episode of the season just short of Ga-Rei-Zero. The real selling point for this one is that the main character is an otaku,...
