March 2008 Anime and stuff
Current Clannad: Fine. Last arc killed two birds with one stone, I guess, so now we’re on to Nagisa. Dragonaut: Yes, I’m still watching this, 21 episodes in. It’s so horrible, but it’s so bad it goes full circle and becomes good again. Ghost Hound: Each episode is well...
February 2008 Anime
Current Clannad: It’s good. I think it has nice characters and a number of good scenes, but thus far the main stories have been kind of weak. Dragonaut: I don’t even know why anymore… Ghost Hound: Still moves at a snail’s pace, but that doesn’t really bother me at...
Minami-ke Okawari and Hakaba Kitarou
It goes without saying that Doumo’s rendition of Minami-ke was brilliant, and that such brilliance would be difficult to replicate, especially by a completely different studio. Though, surprisingly enough, Asread’s doing pretty alright. Asread is a fairly new studio, with their resume being chock full of a lot of...
Winter Season ‘08 (part 2)
The second, and probably last round of reviews for the winter season. Only two this time– probably not going to watch much more than this unless someone decides to sub the new Gegege no Kitarou and/or Noramimi. Gunslinger Girl -Il Teatrino-: And I thought they were over-reacting. Then I...
Winter Season ’08 (part 1?)
The winter season has started, but unlike every other blog I’ve come across, I am in fact not watching every show that rears its poorly animated head. I am a very discerning creature, and after about four or so years of seriously watching anime I can tell just from...
The Year in Review: My Youth in 2007
2007 was really fucking uneven. The first few months got by on the better titles that carried over from 2006, but between April and August it was something of a wasteland. I managed to get my fix for good modern anime by way of genius works such as Gurren...
Comic Site Rant: The Comiket of Despair
Original Post First comic of ’08! It looks kind of bad! It’s not totally horrible, but it’s not totally good, either. I do like Tina’s yandere face in panel 4, though. After reading this comic over and over, I realized that it’s actually just this comic + this comic....
Art Site Update: Chiaki (kind of NSFW)
Update Woop...
Comic Site Rant: The 1000th Summer
Original Post Squeezing in one last comic before the new year. I like this one quite a bit. It didn’t call for much in the way of backgrounds, but I like how that first panel turned out. Sure, it’s all blue, but that’s because it’s cold! Line art isn’t...
