DREAMING DREAMING そして扉が… ひらくよ~ I realize that it’s already April 2nd in Japan, but since it’s still Sakura’s birthday/CLAMP Day here at least, I should get off my lazy bum and continue with these posts! Now that our little detour in Hong Kong is over and done with, the second season blogging of Cardcaptor Sakura is […]
Read MoreImage Credit: 蒼天空 from Pixiv …Illness when writing that mess aside, I don’t think it needed to be any clearer for comprehension. I was going to do another Cardcaptor Sakura post or a Fate/stay night Unlimited Blade Works post, but in light of certain reactions to my previous Kantai Collection post from denizens of the anime […]
Read MoreSakura goes to Hong Kong! When we last left off on my rewatch-blog of Cardcaptor Sakura, the first season of the series had concluded with Sakura enjoying her final moments of Christmas day. In the original television broadcast of Cardcaptor Sakura, the anime was put on-hold until April 6, 1999 for its second season. Gekijouban: Cardcaptor Sakura […]
Read MoreBig giant NO Hope everyone had a Happy Halloween! Though more than a day late, I felt compelled to honor the horror festivities we had this season using this humble little Japanophile blog of mine in some way or another. Rather than diving into some bizzarro horror manga by the likes of Itou Junji and such, […]
Read MoreThe suffering continues… My interest in actively discussing Puella Magi Madoka Magica died down significantly during the past couple of years. Don’t get me wrong, I loved the original anime series and enjoyed watching both of the Puella Magi Madoka Magica The Beginning Story and the Puella Magi Madoka Magica The Everlasting Story films, but […]
Read MoreDAT FACE Yeeeeeeeeah, the European Collector’s Edition of Bravely Default: Flying Fairy totally isn’t worth being jealous over. What was Square Enix thinking when they decided to bundle this monstrosity among the other goodies? Couldn’t they have gotten Figma? Or maybe even Alter? Square Enix, here’s some advice: what looks to be equivalent to a […]
Read MoreOH DEAR GOD WHAT Now, as some of my readers might know, I have no problems with watching shows aimed at a more feminine fanbase. In fact, I love them as much as more testosterone-ridden GAR shows that are on my list (Samurai Champloo, Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, GaoGaiGar, etc.) But this. This is different. This […]
Read MoreAnother series to get out of the way before I write about the current anime season — friggin’ mermaids on an acid trip, twelve minutes each week. There’s really only one way to describe this show, and that is: insane humor.
Read MoreNo, we didn’t go to the maid cafe. T_T Truth be told, I was looking forward to going to Anime Expo 2013 during the earlier parts of the year — going to Fanime again this year was somewhat of a last minute thing. We ended up not having enough funds to afford going to LA and […]
Read MoreQuiet, Calm, Deadly. The Ninja, Kaede. The dark types are such fun sometimes. The evil looks in their eyes, the dark stoic deadpan in their voice, the ungodly fear that she might just kill you before you manage to break through the evil fog of emotions. All this goes into a rather intense emotional experience as […]
