Second episode of Bund establishes the complete and utter ruin they've inflicted upon it.

Well, at least I have Hanamaru, BakaTest, and HidaSketch. Slutcat and Valkyria K-ONicles are decent too. Ookami Kakushi looks like Higurashi with wolf gods and scythes (and Rika in a wheelchair). DRRR!! was boring as snot for that first episode (at least, 90% of it). Not interested in Chuu-Bra!, Ladies Vs. Butts was brain cancer, and I haven't watched Qwaser yet.

Baka Test and DURARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARA were good. I didn't think DURARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARA was boring, either. You're such a kid, Dawn. I can see why you'd think that, but the characters and the setting were interesting enough to hold my attention. I think I just appreciate the fact that it's not set in a school or mansion or something like everything else I've been watching seems to be.

Right now I'm only watching Sora no Woto (http://www.crunchyroll.com/library/Soranowoto), which is definitely my favorite show of the season. I'm also looking forward to Strike Witches season 2 which I think will air this year.

In terms of DVD/blu-ray:
- Gundam Unicorn OVAs on blu-ray
- Strike Witches R1 DVD
- Marimite S4 R1 DVD
- FLCL blu-ray

Hmm...I guess the later seasons of Hidamari Sketch on R1 DVD which Section 23 should be getting around to eventually.

Good job stretching the tables.

I thought it was boring because it was twenty minutes of people gossiping in a boring manner punctuated with cheap chat room sequences, and about three minutes of anything ACTUALLY happening.

And the main character was about as interesting a drying paint. "OH WOW I'M IN IKEBUKURO" got old after twenty minutes.

Decided to watch Fate/Stay Night. However, the dub has some crappy volume control. I have both my laptop vol. maxed out & the media player vol. maxed out & I can barely hear what they're saying.

*gasp* YOU CAN'T DUB FATE/STAY NIGHT!!! WHAT ABOUT ARCHER'S BEAUTIFUL ENGRISH?!

Seriously, though, I did not enjoy UBW in the dub. I didn't really enjoy it in anything but the visual novel, though, so I guess I'm just picky.

Speaking of UBW, how 'bout that movie?

Kara no Kyoukai worked well. It was certainly the best Type-Moon animation. Hopefully, UBW will follow the production qualities of that series and not those of the Fate anime.

You're welcome about the tables, by the way. And I agree that the main character was lame and the chat-room sucked. The rest was good enough to make up for it for me, though. Especially the Black Russian dude.

BakaTest is great. HoYay, Kaori Mizuhashi, playing traps for laughs, Voyeur-kun, Infinite Division of Ramen, that table that got stuck to his hand...

You forgot Yuuji, perhaps the best character of the season.

More anime relationships need to involve tasers and handcuffs.

BUT IT'S SEVEN HOURS LONG.

Twice.


Do unconscious students get a discount? And what's the price/message for "DrunKard"s?

I loved their expressions when Yoshii got trap'd.

Actually looking forward to Soul Eater if the manga is any indication it should be interesting.
It gives one a great sense of satisfaction to do it in perfect unison. Michelle Cheung
