12 Days of Christmas 2013 #04 – The Power to Become Idols

I dropped Kyoukai no Kanata after its fifth episode.

Then I picked it back up for the sixth.

This was an episode that came out of nowhere. In an otherwise somewhat serious anime, there was all of a sudden a comedy idol episode.

Fall 2012 Impressions – “Lacklustre” is the Word

An obligatory, if late, Halloween anime picture. In this case, the group of girls from Hidamari Sketch.

What first seemed to be an exciting anime season turned out to be a fairly lacklustre one. So far even the best series have yet to bring out any “wham” episode. While it may be sort of early into the season, there is no excuse for any of the series to not have some kind of hook that grabs me. Sure, I am interested in them, but I would not call myself excited.

How do you feel about the fall 2012 anime season?

12 Days of Christmas 2011 – #12 – Like Love

Nichijou is easily one of the best anime that has aired this year, shattering my low expectations after the little humble OVA to pieces a gazillion times over. Featuring some of the most random scenes I have seen in anime, reminding me of the Internet for some strange reason, I instantly fell in love with it.
