Da Capo II Second Season - 06

Published by Hinano under Da Capo II

While trying to find a god damn upload of this episode, I ran into some videos of people playing the game. So I randomly clicked on one and less than a minute in, it occurred to me that Yume looks like she’s 12. I have to say I’ll give the props to the anime team for making everyone at least LOOK their age. The only character who I feel looks better in the game than the anime is probably Koko. I feel she looks kinda buff in the anime but cuter in the game. Yume looks 12 and everyone else’s head just looked incredibly deformed to me during the dialogue scenes. It was so revolting that any desire I had (which was low to begin with) to even try the game out pretty much jumped out the window. This week’s episode was only awesome because Jyuunichi ran us down memory lane of the original Da Capo and talked about “girls being able to read minds who sing well”, “a girl who loved bananas”, “the sisters who ate nabe” and “cats who turn into human girls”. Ahh thank you Jyuunichi, you’re the only thing saving this for me from the brink of total doom.

Kimi Hannin Janai Yo Ne? - 05

Published by Hinano under Kimi Hannin Janai Yo Ne?

Blah so last week I was hoping that this week they’d dig deeper into stuff about Sakura’s past but the “aliens” basically wiped out all thoughts she had of it. Wait so what now? Are they gonna just throw it on the backburner until like episode 9 or something? :mad: The only pleasant surprise was that this week the first time Sakura was “wrong” but then was right the 2nd time. The sap story this week is the daughter killed her father because he left their mother when she was young. Also I LOLed at the alien otakus who threw water balloons at the lady because she wanted to cancel their little alien convention. :lol:

Just a couple songs from Japan to keep you festive this Sunday.

In other news, Sen no Kaze ni Natte is finally out of the top 50. Let’s hope it stays that way. :mad:

Junjou Romantica - 05

Published by Hinano under Junjou Romantica

I think it’s about time I dropped this show. Well, I have to admit I actually laugh at lot at the arcs with Usami and Misaki episodes, but like this week focused on Hiro and that other dude..and it was SOOO emo and stuff. It’s just something I guess you’d have to like BL to actually enjoy and well I’m finding myself “meh”ing over it. Basically the other dude comes back from America and Hiro is all tsuntsun that he didn’t send him any letters until the end. He then even goes as far as changing his phone # and moving just so that guy can’t come after him. In school he tries running away but he’s all like “oh noes if he grabs me again I’ll be seduced into buttsecks..even though I really want it”. Yea so Hiro-tan is all tsuntsun but he totally wants it, which is a big eyeroller to me. At the end of the credits they showed that Misaki spilled udon all over Suzuki-san and now became the replacement for Usami to molest at night for 2weeks. :lol: Continue Reading »

Shugo Chara - 31

Published by Hinano under Shugo Chara

This week basically follows volume 5 beginning with the arc about Yaya and why her shugo chara is a baby. Basically she’s just an immature brat who can’t get over the fact that now her little baby brother is getting the parents’ attention instead of her. On the other hand Amu was able to pick up on this early on making her extra cool and spicy in my book. :lol: I thought Yaya would show us her transformation this week but maybe I’m jumping ahead of myself. Next week they’re going to cover Rima and her “bara bara balance” routine.

Persona -Trinity Soul- 19

Published by Hinano under Persona

So if you think we’re getting resolution to the “wtf’s” instead we’re getting more wtf’s to add to our already growing list. This week features the fact that random people who “went missing” years ago are now coming back…but in the bodies of different people. In this case, Takurou’s father comes back in the form of a young woman. Imagine the look on Takuro’s face when some chick runs up to him going “I’m your father, you’ve grown so big!” :shock: Continue Reading »

Anime Blogger Panel at NYAF! Who’s with me?

Published by Hinano under Conventions, Unsorted

So DS brought up this idea: Let’s run an anime blogger panel at new york anime festival! I thought “eh why, it would be all boring like that ANN panel last year” but then I thought from another point of view… It can be BETTER than the ANN panel cause we don’t need to talk about main stream licensed shit. We can talk about actual blogs that blog about anime, editorials, flames, imoutos, NicoNico memes and the whole thing about starting your shiny new anime blog. Continue Reading »
