Mid-season Anime Thoughts Winter 2012

We are past the half way point of the anime season once again, and so it’s time for my mid-season anime thoughts post. I am following seven series this season which I think is a record for me since starting this blog, but on the other hand I’m only blogging one series. So without further [...]

Recommendation: Pandora Hearts

There are some series that take a while for you to used to; they grow on you gradually, they have rough starts, or maybe a certain character appears later on and grabs your interest. Then there are series like Pandora Hearts, where from the first few pages everything clicks. It’s hard to describe, but just [...]

Happy Birthday Vivi~!!

While the date may say the 28th, I know that most of you are still stuck in the past. Which is a good thing, cos the 27th marks the birthday of one of our longest serving and dearest friend, Vivi! Let’s join in on the celebration and wish her a happy birthday, shall we? Can’t [...]

Weekly Art – Monogatari Series

Tofu here, thought I’d share a very dear anime of mine which I love to bits (especially for a certain character named Senjougahara!) because of its unique and crazy camera angles done by the one and only SHAFT. Not only that, each character has their own arc while getting a fair share of screen time [...]

Fashionable Nudity in Mawaru Penguindrum

Mawaru Penguindrum Yuri shibari rape Ringo

Mawaru Penguindrum has always had this elegant, fabulous vibe it. It is sensual, sexy, and, above all, fashionable. Being fashionable allows Mawaru Penguindrum to be super sexual—erotic, even—without seeming sleazy. In anime, this might just be the difference in taste level between, say, shibari in Mawaru Penguindrum and panty shots in some harem anime. Yes, [...]

Weekly Art – Bakemonogatari

Tofu here, thought I’d share a very dear anime of mine which I love to bits (especially for a certain character named Senjougahara!) because of its unique and crazy camera angles done by the one and only SHAFT. Not only that, each character has their own arc while getting a fair share of screen time [...]

Mobile Suit Gundam AGE 20

Zeheart become the Red Comet complete with mask and red mobile suit. Oh yeah big bro Decil, I’m now your boss. Amazing the things that can happen while you were asleep, huh? Summary: In an asteroid field, Zeheart tests his Zedas R with upgrades to better keep up with his X-Rounder abilities, but the upgrades [...]

Canne’s distant world No.1: The war between shinobi is hell of blood

Dear loved one, please go to hell… This world was quite generic at first glance. In fact, what made it special was how this world seamlessly combined many generic features into itself. Basilisk: Kouga Nippou Chou was particularly praised for its character building rather than world building. But the world is not made of only [...]

Gantz 358

Kurono #2 buries Reika, while Kurono #1 continues to march his giant mech towards its destination. Goodbye to Reika, the hottest babe this series will ever see.  Summary: Kurono #2 carries Reika’s body out of the warehouse. Outside, the Tokyo Team battles and kills a giant monster. The team then sees Kurono and Reika, and [...]

Black Rock Shooter 04

Episode 4 of Black Rock Shooter titled “The World I Once Dreamed of Closes on Me”. Enjoy! Kagari has decided to come to school although she still holds onto some of that negative attitude which can almost be interpreted as a way to make fun of Sasaki Nozomi who’s apparently known for being quite negative [...]
