Quibbling over an analogy...
ha. ha.
Check out the debates in the paper of record today for the lolz.
By the way, Last Exile 2 is pretty nice going by the first ep. Weird though that the first thing you see is some loli chick's pantsu. i'm also quite sure the Miyukichi princess was going commando in the lake scene. Too strike witchy?
Fate/Zero's ok. Tad slow. Watching nothing else at the moment.
Life's good.

Beyond the clouds blah blah blah
Trying to resist spamming Mio's images here...
Just finished watching this show. The visuals are pretty, but the plot... not too bad, but the climax was weak and very cliche. Storyline was relatively simple enough, and throughout the middle of it, very depressing, but overall, it was an enjoyable experience. Oh yes, some of the music, like the violin part played by Sayuri and Hiroki later was nice, and the ending was nice too. The voice for Sayuri is pretty sweet too, great for movie-style show. One lacking part was we never got to see what the enemy was doing ultimately, and hence tension was kind of lacking. Only depression.
But I quite like it.

Sekushi
I dun know what else to say actually. Rierie's a healthy girl? This 10th anniversary photobook will be on sale 28 May 09.
Long time no post actually. Been at the end of some really stimulating criticism at work. Never felt so good getting my ass pwned before. Lame yaoi jokes aside, i'm really fired up about the upcoming projects. Been feeling like there's something to be done that can really make a difference somewhere down the line. Even though whatever we do now might end up in the trash can with the next change of command, that's not something i'm worried about now.
[However, that won't stop me from drooling over sekushi rie nee-san characters in Hatsukoi Limited (Yamamoto Misaki) and Asura Cryin (Kurosaki Shuri). Two sekushi rie nee-san characters plus Maria all in one season! Bumper rierie harvest, i would say. And that's on top of the upcoming photobook. *drools*]

Wow
Wow it's been quite some time since I've posted. Busy busy busy stupid exams. New season just started, so I shall comment on the 3 shows that I've caught so far.
HnG2:
So far... this season of HnG has been quite the same to me as the previous season, save for the lack of "genki-ness" as previously mentioned. Character designs are quite similar, though why, oh why did they change Maria's uniform to blackish?! Blue was very fine, thank you. Isumin was cute, though kind of lacking in lines, and little screentime. Izumi stole the show for me though. ED was noticable for the emphasis on Hinagiku, though since Hina and I got not much affinity, it doesn't really work for me. I can imagine the millions of Hina fans grinning in glee though.
K-On!:
Awesome. Saw the preview and immediately discovered who will be my favourite one already. I believe this is the first time this happened to me. ED was catchy and caught my interest fast, and of course, Mio being the main character could be the reason for its awesomeness. OP took a little longer to grow on me, but the catchy tune helped and some Minami-ke vibe. Show was simple enough, and I thought the seiyuu work was pretty cute at some parts. "nani sore ba iin daro~?" Aww...
FMA Brotherhood:
Yay for the return of the Elric brothers (and Winry). It wasn't a particularly interesting episode, I feel there is a bit too much emphasis on the Chibi-Ed joke. Can't say I appreciate the change for Winry yet, but can't wait to see how the new Winry would be like. Storyline was so-so, kind of like setting up the stage for the next episode. Oh yes! And Roy Mustang's aide is cute standing there by the side. She needs more screentime. OP and ED aren't worth mentioning.
Can't wait for TMOSH2. Considering between Hatsukoi and Valkyrie too.

Winter 2009 Study Guide (Part 2)
Rideback – Must Know. Ogata Rin (Mizuki Nana) is just too GAR. I know chicks can’t be GAR by definition but I can’t find a better word. Rin is quickly becoming my favourite Nana role. The first few eps looked like they were about a young ballerina who retired due to a torn ankle ligament then discovers a new passion in motor racing. What made this series a Must Know was how Rin really seemed to be enjoying herself on the bike (I’m not being sick or anything. Really.). Her passion, never-say- die attitude and the way she pulls off spectacular ballet-inspired stunts with her mecha-bike Fuego makes me feel like I’m watching TTGL all over again. Rin’s got Spiral Energy, man. It helps, of course, that she wears an otherwise rather modest white one-piece dress, except that it tends to flip up nicely in the wind as she tears down the road, for those interested in the service sector. Animation wise, the show looked fine. The CG mecha-bikes didn’t look out of place at all, so kudos to Madhouse, or whoever did the CG.
Ep 4 was a bit less enjoyable bcos somehow terrorists got into the picture and there were battles involving the mecha-bikes. There were hints of this in earlier eps, but I was just hoping they would ignore the terrorists and just get on with the racing. Oh well. We’ll see how it goes from here on. Let’s just hope Rin doesn’t get recruited into Celestial Being as a Gundam Meister. That’s when I’ll stop watching.
Maria Holic – Must Know, cos I’m partial to yuri. =) I dunno whether the original manga had such a random off-tangent style of perverted humour or it was Shaft’s doing, but the show sure reminded me of Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei. I’m not complaining though, I love this show. The dick-grab in ep 1 had me in stitches.
Almost the entire cast being SZS alumni certainly didn’t help to differentiate the two shows. Miyukichi is wonderfully menacing in an off-handed kind of way as GOD, while Marina was delightfully poker-faced and foulmouthed as the meido. Maybe she can play both Kana and Chiaki in Minamike. Kobayashi was good too, switching btw bishoujo and otoko modes effortlessly. I keep forgetting the name of the main character’s seiyuu, but I know she played Tamaki in Kurenai. Her ero-jiji act was nose-bleedingly good haha.
Druaga 2 (Update) – on the verge of being downgraded to Good to Know. As expected, once the RPG plot starts the fun stops. We need more scenes of Kayi jabbing Fatina’s butt to boost this back to a definite Must Watch. Bespectacled OL Coopa was a highlight. The OP, Question, is growing on me. Awesome song to go with the opening animation, which has become the best part of the show, as of ep 5. Got to say the fight involving the shadows was quite creative though.
Minamike Okaeri – Must Watch. Same old M-I-N-A-M-I-K-E!!! Even the OP theme sounded the same as Season One’s. Needs more Mako-chan, Touma alone is carrying the responsibility of generating gender-bending fun. Probably needs more Haruka as well. Can’t have enough Banchou Haruka.
More to Come…

Winter 2009 Study Guide (1st Edition)
Pretty self-explanatory title. (not really, since I’m explaining it now, but wth) Topics assigned “Must Know”, “Good to Know” and “No Need to Know”. “Must Know” means it’s appearing in the test for sure, “Good to Know” means mug this you’re gunning for a good grade, “No need to Know” means if you know this you’re either really bored or a distinction viva candidate. Basically, this is a suggested priority list for the busy guy.
Druaga 2 - Must Know. The first ep of was awesome. Then again, the first season’s ep 1 was awesome too. Oh well. Even then, this first ep is worth a watch for its own sake regardless of how the rest of the season turns out. On to the specifics (some spoilers):
1) OP animation ROCKS. There are even little comedic moments inserted throughout that 90-second long sequence. (FatinaXroper tentacle rape dakimakura, lol) Who wouldn’t be interested in a spin-off series with the Druaga guys as normal, maybe slightly MMORPG addicted, high school kids? The song was okay, I guess. Maybe not as catchy as Swinging(?), cos I can’t quite remember what it sounds like right now.
2) JilxFatina Woo Hoo! Coconut Jam and Jil were both a bit too nice for anything exciting to happen the first time round. JilxFatina, on the other hand, is somehow just the right comedic mix of tsundere and cluelessness. Down side is I’ve got a feeling we’re going to end up back at the season one pairings again somewhere down the line. “Neeebaaa~!” (yucks)
3) Unemployed ex-heroes! Job Change Time!! Imagine if FFT had an advanced job class like Souvenir-Peddling-Tour-Guide or Hikkikomori-Living-Off-His-Girl. Interesting take on how our heroes are getting on in their currently mundane lives. I seriously dun want them to go off on some other adventure cos this is just a darn lot of fun, but alas…
4) LOL Utuu’s actually a handsome dude! Those who recognized the signature deep voice of Kyouran’s Lion-san before the in-show revelation would be basking in otaku pride right now.
5) New loli chara with morphing boob size. Actually she’s got both loli and adult forms somehow. The most entertaining new character. I mean, she gropes Fatina, does totally random loli stuff and says “GAO!”. What’s not to like?
6) Sorry, this video is not available in your region… =( WTF? So the Crunchy distribution thingy didn’t work out or is Gonza just racist? Haha. Haven’t been keeping up with my anime industry news lately. Anyway… get your plane tickets to Japan ready! =p
Marimite – Good to Know. Same old Marimite. Probably a bit hard to get into without watching the previous 3 seasons, downgrade to “No Need to Know” if you haven’t been following the series. Love the yuri imagery.

Asu no Youichi – Good to Know. Pretty standard harem fanservice show. Looks good to me. I’m not too picky about my fanservice. The guy has sword techniques named “Hayate” and “Nagi”, but, no, I don’t think that counts as a HnG reference. Satou Rina is in another onee-san role (nice…), Hanazawa is another loli, Tamura Yukari is some doujin-drawing hentai girl, while Tomato seems to be all over the place and I can’t recognize her voice. One funny bit in Ep 1 was when the guy was trying to find the loli’s onee-san through descriptions of her boobs, i.e. “What about this one? Too small?...”.
Sora wo Kakeru Shojo – Good to Know. Sci-fi Moe? I dunno. The show’s got frantic pacing and lots happening in the first ep. Gives me Idol Master Xenoglossia vibes, and I can’t say that’s a good thing. I’m more interested in the voicework though, the cast list is fantastic. Yukana was somehow outstanding though she only had one line, haha. Getting Fukuyama Jun to play the crazy narcissistic(?) AI was a great idea too. Note the very obvious rierie ninja cameo (Counselor B or something, hope she gets a regular role). Others I can name off-hand are Endo Aya, Nonaka Ai, Nanri Yuka (!), Yukari Tamura, etc etc. Looking forward to some great performances, though I seriously have no idea what this show is about.
Akikan – Good to Know. Watched this a few days back and, frankly, I can’t remember much. Seems like fanservice but there’s more male nudity than anything. Prepare for strategic concealment of male genitalia. Fukuyama plays the wacky male lead. I think he’s more entertaining in such crazy roles than in the LuluXSuzaku emo shit.
Shows waiting to be watched / Shows I’m pretending I haven’t watched: Maria Holic (awesome Show actually), Kuro Kami, White Album, Shikabane Hime (doesn’t really count as new since there’s not even a break in btw seasons), Natsume Yuujinchou (not done with first season).
Notes: This is a work-in-progress, updates to be issued as necessary. In fact, no show is going to get a “No need to Know” by the first episode unless it is really bad or yaoi. The length of an entry is possibly a good surrogate indicator for my interest in the series, or I could be cutting corners so I can go play Capitalism II.

Merry Christmas!
(Not that i give a damn actually, but it makes a good title when I can't think of anything else.)
Nine days till Rierie hits the big THREE-O. I've been enjoying her role as Yuri sensei, Toradora's resident 30 y/o ticking biological time bomb. Didn't think she needed to act for that one. =p
Earlier in the month, in a blog post regarding a live-recording for Hayate Radio, Rie quipped that she's totally pumped at getting such young roles (Maria, 17-sai) when she's already pushing 30. As usual, she'll 頑張って行きます～～！
(The post featured a rierie in Miko mode too, but no pics here cos i left the high quality version behind at home. Maybe later. I'm loafing at work now. Edit: fixed.)
Btw, she claims to have spent Christmas eve playing Dissidia: Final Fantasy. How romantic. I love her even more now.

Macross Frontier!
Ok finally finished Macross Frontier (at long last)! Wow I actually missed out quite a bit by not finish this, some of the songs are nice! Now I kind of understand why all the Sheryl fans are all crazy over Motteke! song.
But a song that really caught my ears is Ai Oboete Imasuka. Oboete imasuka! Oh Anata no Oto is not too bad too.
As expected, the plot is... not outstanding and the "plot twist" isn't much of a twist anyway. Vajra becoming human allies? Sigh... Grace the evil one? Wasn't this rather apparent already, only surprise was how that Leon died. Too fast.
Take it as a 25 ep musical and the show excels. So far MF is the show which clocks most songs which I relatively like (not surprising considering the crazy number of songs in the show).

Doujin lyrics for the ToraDora OP
Not by me, found the mp3 for this Chinese cover together with the lyrics *cough* “somewhere”. No credits came with the package, though I’d really like to know who the crackpot who came up with this crazy version of an already crazy sounding song was. 佩服，佩服. What I really enjoyed was the bloodthirsty violence that erupted over dumplings. Somehow I find that strangely realistic. And definitely fitting for a Kugimi show. The lady who sang it wasn’t bad either. Well, at least it sounded like a lady.Here it goes, sung to the full version:
Edit: Here's the short ver dubbed over the OP animation by MoonMai.
燃烧 现在就燃烧
莫名其妙被人踩了一脚
菜刀 快拿出菜刀
喋血街头后染红了心跳
bye i bye i
今天嗅见味道 心血来潮
抛弃大小姐的 矜持和外套
墙几米高 匍匐街角
成功认定目标 东北水饺
从小的家教 告诉我不能半途而逃
(不能逃 不能逃 绝对要吃一个饱)
但是看人潮 如此之狂暴 世界仿佛充满了野生强盗
(我们饿了)
于是收起了代表人类的微笑
这种时候不(需要)谁来为人师表
举(起了)双(手后)伴(随着)环境胡乱吼叫
饥饿制造 真实社交
请你收(回去)代表人类的肢爪(念:找)
这种时候该(祈祷)不要被踩烂脚
如(果有)哪(个人)破(坏了)大小姐粉红鞋凹
小心菜刀 火箭炮

bye i bye i
人们看见水饺 停止争吵
收敛禽兽态貌 手脚仍缠绕
照这样也好 我的目标
本来就是吃饱 并不是暴躁
终于轮到了 伸手拿属于我的水饺
(不要跑 不要跑 要保住矜持骄傲)
斜刺黑影飘 如此之狂嚣 伸手瞬间破坏排队的辛劳
(纱布卧槽)
于是收起了理智构筑的段桥
这种时候不(需要)发扬雷锋遗诏
举(起了)菜(刀后)拉(扯着)犯人陷入泥沼
红眼外交 鲜血迢迢
请你收(回去)代表人类的肢爪
不要以为大(小姐)天生不会发飚
如(果有)哪(个人)破(坏了)大小姐粉红鞋凹
小心鬼妖 望山彪

The Limitations of OS Information
First up, we have Rierie news. After another 3 weeks’ absence on her blog, finally an update. Said she was too busy with work to update, ごめんねーー＾＾； Also said she’s got zero breaks during the whole of Dec, so it’s a real test of her stamina. Looks like we won’t be getting any more updates in Dec because of that, but she promised to work real hard on her anime, radio and TV programmes (that double R thingy) to make up for it. 
Pic of Rierie with Koyama and Hirohashi, her Akasaka co-stars. Actually I wonder what she’s busy with since this season, besides the sucky Akasaka, she again did mostly ninja cameos, e.g Toradora, Yozakura. Contrast that to earlier this year when I could count at least four prominent roles off the top of my head (HnG, Kimikiss, Mnemosyne, KimiAru). Seems like a slump? Then again, she’s got other engagements like miucomi and stuff which I don’t bother tuning in to, so it might possibly be a shift in focus after the agency switch. Who knows?
Oh, mentioned she’s hosting the net radio for online game Get Amped 2 as well. Check out the voice samples on the game’s page. She sounds like a gangster Suigintou.
Speaking of gangsters I’ve started watching Gokusen on crunchy roll. Rather ancient (by internet standards) drama about a Yakuza daughter who becomes homeroom teacher to a bunch of high school delinquents. Hilarity ensues. Kind of like a female version of GTO. Kagamisumi will be interested to know that the female lead played by Nakama Yukie (below) sports jet black twin tails with megane.

There’s an anime version in 2004, but that’s ancient as well (again by net standards). Dun think I’ll be following up on the cartoon version cos it happens to be one of the few shows where I think the 3D actress looks better than the 2D character. Haha, rare point for the 3 dimensional.
Lastly, random Youtube stuff:
Mami says p*nis! And got told off by Ayako. Hahaha….
Saiunkoku OP live by Hirahara Ayaka. Hajimari no kaze. 声音酷酷的蛮喜欢.
愛しい人へ live, Seirei no Moribito ED by Tainaka Sachi. Love her songs, except the hideous ones for F/SN.

Emo Sounds Too Cute
Watched The Sky Crawlers last night with the kagamisumi.
Won’t try to review it cos I’m too lazy to think. To put it in a nicer and more pretentious manner so that I’ll hopefully appear less dumb, I don’t see a need to analyse everything down to every nitty gritty detail. Maybe sometimes there’s just no “who, why, when, where, how”. Without thinking at all, I sat through the whole movie simply enjoying the ambience.
And right now I know not why I am so sad. =p Guess it’s one of those movies which leave a long aftertaste.
With that out of my system, it’s time for random stuff which may or may not have anything to do with anything else.
Mendelian inheritance says like begets like. Therefore lolis give birth to lolis.
Wait, or was that Lemarck?
People who don’t stay for the credits miss the ending.
I’m suffering May’n fatigue. Time to move on. Yes, kagamisumi, you can stop shouting “May’n’s over there!”. I won’t fall for it. My sources say she’s gone home.
Emirin's birthday was yesterday.
That onee-san from the ROC rep office is my new idol. Oh, the eloquence! Diplomats and actors/artistes have much in common I believe.

With that out of my system, it’s time for random stuff which may or may not have anything to do with anything else.
Mendelian inheritance says like begets like. Therefore lolis give birth to lolis.
Wait, or was that Lemarck?
People who don’t stay for the credits miss the ending.
I’m suffering May’n fatigue. Time to move on. Yes, kagamisumi, you can stop shouting “May’n’s over there!”. I won’t fall for it. My sources say she’s gone home.
Emirin's birthday was yesterday.
That onee-san from the ROC rep office is my new idol. Oh, the eloquence! Diplomats and actors/artistes have much in common I believe.

Busy and Slack
You missed one pic. Sign seven extras. Wait, since it's one of rierie going Kira!, make it 21.Michiko and Hatchin is a pretty good show, definitely worth a look at least. Got to admit that the presence of sekushi nee-san always sways my vote somewhat though.
Oh ya, please please cut the tsundere song and Miyukichi's "FU*K!!" for me once you get to Yozakura ep 6. I wanna use it as a HP ringtone.

Trawl...
Wow, amazingly today, just a brief scan online yielded an amazing field of pictures.
Without further ado, ikimashou!
Wow... Rierie... speechless.
Tomato's smile as sweet as ever. She seems to like pastel-ish colours for background.
Kawaii! Don't know who though.
AHH AHHH AHHHH!

AHH AHHH AHHHH!Anyway, I've finally finished Nodame S1 after a long long time. Ending was sweet, rather saccharine, but still nice. The style of humour is fun and cute, and so far, Nodame herself can carry the whole series despite being rather quirky and weird. Her obsession with Purigota is rather... -_-" Chiaki is an ok male protagonist whose rise to fame-dom is rather expected and ok to watch. I like how the characters interact among themselves. Oh and the Special is funny, though I would have thought Nodame would have known of Chiaki's phobia of the sea already.
Toradora-wise, I still think Kushieda Minori is a much cuter character than Taiga herself... And I await with bated breath how Ami would develop as the series proceed on.

Drunken Blogging
I’m now hooked on 雨が降る(?), the Linebarrels ED by Sakamoto Maaya. Really beautiful song. This is another example of a sucky show with great music. I swear there were others but I can’t quite remember right now. Brain’s a bit addled by alcohol.
Other new songs that are on my playlist this season:
Motto hade ni ne, Tomato Haruka (Kannagi OP). This one got on my radar more because of the dancing in the OP than anything else. Catchy tune, but I’m kind of getting sick of it already.
Discotheque, Mizuki Nana (Pantsu + Vampire OP). Dancing… Churu churu churu payapa… the choreography for the OP and Nana’s PV are identical if I’m not wrong. Love the churu churu churu payapa. Dun like the censor bats.
Pre-Parade, Kugimi + Kitaeri + Hocchan (Toradora OP). I just like the “pari-pari” bits. Otherwise quite retarded.
Forgot the title, Kemeko Gang (Kemeko DX OP). Crazy. Mad man. Imelda. Jesus, jesus, jesus, kami-sama!
Just Tune / Nagareboshi, can’t remember off-hand (Yozakura Quartet OP/ED). Can’t quite remember which is the OP and which the ED. Both are decent but not breathtakingly decent. Meaning they are not indecent. I might be drunk already.
Town Anthem aka Tsundere Song, Hime-chan (Fukuen Misato?), (Yozakura Quartet Insert). Tsun tsun dere tsun dere tsun tsun. Tsun tsun dere tsun dere tsun tsun. I seriously hope this comes out in the OST somewhere. Come to think of it we still dun have that musical number from Kurenai. Totally unacceptable. So unbecoming.
Northern Cross, May’n, (Macross F ED / Insert / whatever). Macross is over? Oops. I can sing the whole song now though. Somehow the tongue twistery bits are really fun to sing. Would you pay 100 bucks to watch her sing it live? Somehow I’m starting to think my $8 two-day pass isn’t even going to get me standing room during the gig. Time to break out my PLA surplus binoculars. Wait. Was it Soviet? Can’t quite remember what the PRC guy peddling it for 20 bucks said.
Gravity, m.e.o.v. (Raki Suta insert). Full version just came out. Amazing that the LS Holstein (I dun mean miyuki) is still being milked after one year. My favourite LS song, besides Sore Ga Ai Deshou, which doesn’t really count actually.
And thanks to okto’s split from Vasantham, I no longer get to watch anime in the office (though I caught bits of Tytania on NHK the other day. Dun think its airing, just some documentary.)

蓝绿各打五十大板
Was bargain hunting for cheap retro games and found Giren’s Ambition PS2 version. Not really retro but it is at least six years old so what the heck. Burned pretty much the whole weekend playing, but got a bit sick of having dirt cheap Type-61s overrun my shiny Zakus through sheer numbers. Makes sense, since for the same weight-class a tank would probably be the more efficient design, it’s just less shiny and less popular with the kids.
I remember one show which did try to “realistically” portray its mecha though. What the scriptwriters for Gasaraki came up with was that humanoid mecha, Tactical Armour (TA), are specialized weapons designed for urban ops in which the TA relies on its flexibility to beat the tank’s superior armour and firepower, e.g. it can fire around a street corner but the tank cannot. What they forgot was that Taliban militants armed with RPGs and IEDs can be stealthier than any mech, even those equipped with mirage colloid / minovsky / GN particle camo. Can’t really blame them, the show was produced pre-2001. Then again, a squad of TAs proceeded to pwn an entire mechanized battalion in wide open desert several episodes in, so what can I say besides “hey, at least Sunrise gave us Gintama”.
Mighty busy with Indon class as well; up to my neck with revision and homework I’m supposed to be doing but obviously not. I don't even want to think about the reports that are very behind schedule and the weekend duty coming up. Fuck, i just did.
Instead of mugging for my vocab test later in the afternoon, I shall now write a rabu reta to Rierie in Bahasa Indonesia. Behold the power of procrastination:
Rierie yang tercinta,
Anda wanita yang tercantik (dan tergarang) di dunia ini. Saya cinta kepadamu untuk selama-lamanya dan tidak akan lupa kepadamu. (Tapi saya juga suka Miyukichi. Dan Kugimi. Dan Mami. Dan Ayako. Maaf.)
Kentang.
Ok, random pic spamming time.

Minorin and Sakakibara "live" in Taipei this Dec. That's good, they avoid mass protests that the DPP is trying to pull off. But who knows what will happen in Dec? Taiwan is so fun.

Mami's room layout apparently, though a few years old. She's got a huge bed. Hmmm....
Meronpan. Wow! Meronpan. Yay! Superduper yummy! (i'm singing the Paddlepop ad jingle from aeons ago if you haven't realised. Anyone knows if they've changed it?)
PS. Title is no indication of my political inclinations, just tot it's a cute little slogan. (Btw, i'm pan-blue cos green is just such a hideous colour.)

2008 Fall
So far I've only caught a few shows this season, and there are so many more left...
Clannad AS: As expected from KyoAni, this one delivers and I am enjoying this season of Clannad. I'm a little jolted by the RakiSuta faces in ClannadAS 03 though, as it was rather unexpected. All the characters are cute as usual, except Kyou seems to have morphed a little into "dark" Kyou, which is scary... Tomoyo is rather aloof though. Probably a post-Clannad 24 effect. Kotomi-nano is still very cute. Nagisa became rather endearing, and she should wear her new hairstyle more often! I shall not venture into Mei and Sanae's territory lest I start blubbering here.
Kannagi: Great OP, fun storyline. Nagi is quite a amusing character, though I wonder how the story will progress from here as there doesn't seem much that both of them can do other than hunt bugs or start uncovering Nagi's past and fighting "bugs" ala Shana. From the OP, it may well take a Slice of Life-ish comedy turn and then things may be looking good (maybe).
Toradora: Wasn't particularly drawn into this show as I keep getting Shana-vibes everywhere. Actually, just from Taiga alone. I have a little more interested in the Taiga's friend and that is not a good thing I think. Male protagonist is very dull.
To Aru Majustsu no Index: Cute and cute, Index is cute, lightning-girl is tsuntsun and there is a crazy smoking loli who is a teacher which scares me. Male protagonist isn't too bad. Storyline so far is very Shana-ish (again, what's up with that? Must be the JC Staff effect) and the antagonists are beyond dull. Next episode with some nice swordplay may be more fun, but then again, I'm not really into sword-swinging-shojos (I don't hate them, but I don't award points for that). Still, there's quite a bit more character development and history to look forward to, and the animation so far is nice, so it's been enjoyable.
And that's all I've managed to catch up to this season. 4 shows is mad, and still got more. Last season I only caught how many ah... So many kena temporarily dropped. Oh well.
And I spammed Utawarerumono today. A crazy 13 episode marathon to reach the ep15 mark now. Aruru-chan wa kawaii! But the middle of the series is starting to become a little sian because nothing much is happening besides some soldiers slashing each other and house-burning. Also getting a lot of supernatural elements coming into play suddenly which makes the power balance in the show go out of whack. The crazy emperor of the too-long-to-remember-the-name country also has a horrifying which grates me every time he laughs. I like how the transition Hakuoro had from village head to emperor is carried out though, how life changed for him and Eruru/Aruru, how responsibilities changed, and the calm samurai-general is quite a cool character. Yuzuha just needs to open her eyes ala Nunnally.
Oh and the twin archers are cute.
Yes and their gender are (rather) undefined.
So, they better be onna no ko's.

Mutilasi Rambutan
The Fall 08 study guide has been reviewed and reissued, with changes to the following items.
Tytania – Good to know. Dune-ish Space Opera. There was some attempt at showing large-scale battle tactics but I can’t guarantee that degeneration into mobile suit/knightmare frame duels wouldn’t happen. At least there aren’t any mobile suits yet.
Ga-Rei Zero – Upgraded to Must Know. The action is well choreographed and smoothly animated, plus the WTF factor has got me totally hooked. I have no idea where they’re going with the *spoiler* high body count of characters *spoiler end* and I can’t wait to find out.
Skip Beat – Upgraded to Must Know. The protagonist is a spunky mad girl who is mad. Think of her as a powered-up version of Kasahara from Toshokan sensou with a much less innocent, and crazier, motivation.
Kurozuka – Level of advice remains unchanged. I see a naked woman in ep2.
And the following additions.
Tentai Senshi Sunred – Might need to know. A spoof of the tokusatsu, i.e. “power ranger” genre. The hero Sunred lives off his girlfriend. The evil monsters have part-time jobs at the supermarket because scheming to take over the world doesn't pay very well. Short episodes good for a laugh when you have 15 minutes to spare.
Stitch – Mana ada subs?
Meanwhile, at the Tokyo Game Show…
.jpg)
…Rierie Vs Amisuke Part 2. Can you feel the animosity radiating from Rierie’s cleavage? Let’s just hope Asumi managed to escape the collateral damage.
Refer below for a brief history of the Rie-Ami Feud (?)
.jpg)
The fact that both were looking in opposite directions during the Kimikiss interview has been cited as evidence of less-than-pleasant feelings between them. What a shining example of investigative journalism. Rierie does look bloody fierce in the video though (it’s somewhere on youtube or nico).
My hypothesis is that Rie looks pissed bcos she sprained her neck, which also explains her inability to turn around and face Ami. And no, Kagamisumi, I dun think she’s pissed at Ami for stealing her loot on Monster Hunter because that is just so juvenile. You make her seem as if she’s some 29 year-old gaming otaku who wastes her life away in some MMO-
Oh.
Shit.

My Head Hurts
A topsy turvy schedule alternating between day and night shifts over the past 2 weeks has split my head in two, i think. Ouch.
But that won't stop me from watching TV!!!
Kagamin, here's your Fall 08 study guide as promised:
Akaneiro ni Somaru Saka - No need to know. Double Rie + Emiri fails to save this show.
Casshern - Didn't watch. It's on TV on Wed nights though.
Chaos Head - Good to know. The bloody loli murder mystery nonsense has my interest piqued.
Clannad - Duh.
Ef - Must know. Seems to be both a sequel and prequel to last season. Naked girl self-portrait wins all.
Ga Rei Zero - Good to know. Brilliant(?) shock ending to first ep. Minorin appears in 2nd ep.
Hakushaku to Yousei - No need to know. You jump i jump, shojo-ish stuff.
Hyakko - Good to know. SOL-ish comedy ala Manabi Straight.
Jigoku Shojo - No need to know. Season 2 DVDs are still sitting on my shelf nearly untouched.
Junjou Romantica - Up to you.
Kannagi - Must know. The OP itself is reason enough to watch if you ask me. Go, Tomato!
Kemeko - Must know. Crazy show with crazy nearly naked girls.
Gundam - Didn't watch.
Kurogane no Linebarrels - No need to know. Great cast, but i dun like the designs, both the character and main mecha. The grunt robots were quite cool though. Going by the first ep, the protagonist is bloody retarded.
Kuroshitsuji - Good to know. Think of it as a semi-gender-swapped HnG with black humour. Watch out for Emirin as clumsy meido.
Kurozuka - Yet to watch. Fast forwarded through it, looks very dark. might watch for Park Romi.
Macademi Wasshoi - Might need to know, but likely to be crap. Feels like a ZnT rip-off.
Mouryou no Hako - Yet to watch. Fast forwarded through it, looks very dark. Might watch if there's yuri.
Nodame - Must Know. Gyabo!!
Noramimi - Didn't make it through season one.
One Outs - No need to know. Didn't like baseball to begin with.
Rosario + Vampire - No need to know, but i'm following for reasons previously stated.
Shikabane Hime - Good to know. I guess you've already got your mind made up on this one, since it fulfils your fetish for seifuku and long black hair all at the same time.
Shugo Chara - What's that?
Skip Beat! - Good to know. Inoue Marina is delightful as the lead, but it's still shojo so probably have to watch out for sparkling guys and stuff. Watch this on TV on Fri nights.
Tales of the Abyss - Yet to watch. RPG-ish stuff tend to turn me off though. Druaga wouldn't have been very good either if not for the humour.
To Aru Majutsutsutsu no Index - Good to know. Naked loli. i guess that's enough reason for you, but just for the record there's Satou Rina too.
Kyou no 5-2 - No need to know. Almost exactly the same as OVA, which was way better (read: ecchi-er).
Toradora - Must Know. Shana/Louise returns. Plus there's Tanaka Rie sensei. Watch this on TV on Thu nights.
Tytania - Yet to watch cos i somehow confused it with Hakushaku to Yousei. Hey, Tytania is a yousei what.
Vampire knight - Screw it.
Yozakura Quartet - Good to know. There's rierie (ninja cameo) and miyuki, plot wise nothing much yet. We'll see.
And some extra stuff to feed your aforementioned fetish.
Even the pantsu is black.
