Not a Review: To Aru Majutsu no Index
J.C. Staff’s track record for well done light novel adaptations isn’t exactly stellar. Actually, as of late, their track record for anything good at all hasn’t been all the great. Yet, despite a history of failure, I still come back and partake of whatever they have to offer, even...
March 2009 Anime
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...
Comic Site Rant: 君に、胸キュン。
Original Post The last comic didn’t get the kind of reaction I thought it would–that is, it didn’t get much of a reaction at all. I guess I shouldn’t assume that people know about Yoshinobu Nishizaki’s run-ins with the law, nor should I assume that people should know that...

Random 12/08/08
Since I was two episodes behind, I dropped Yozakura Quartet. Despite the harsh things I say about it elsewhere, it’s not an altogether bad show. The character interaction is great, but that’s not really enough to save it from its really bad plot. The show also has some slick...
December 2008 anime and manga
Current Casshern Sins: Great art direction but the writing is so boring. I’m pretty sure Casshern says JUST WHAT AM I in every fucking episode. ChäoS;HEAd: It’s always super special! I like this one a lot. Clannad ~After Story~: Hit and miss. Needs more Mei and/or baseball episodes. ef...

November 2008 Anime + Manga
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...
