Guin Saga 2 - Hentai Duke’s Gladiator Games
The music for Guin Saga is epic. I think this is quite possibly the first time in a while I’ve heard an instrumental OP…which will probably get boring pretty quickly. -wry- Continue Reading »

Spring 2009 - One-liner Impressions
K-On: Will definitely be watching this, but not so sure about blogging it.
Shinkyoku Polyphonica Crimson S: Technobardic magic! Yes!
Queen’s Blade: We’ll see whether it gets too horrible, but yes for the moment!
Guin Saga: Hrm. Not quite sure wha to make of this one, yes? I’m kinda worried the twins will prove too annoying to follow, though. >.>
Saki: Quirky characters and CG mahjong! Yes!
07 Ghost: Bishounen overload! Yes!
Eden of the East: The first ep blew me away. I especially enjoyed the creative ED and…uh…interestingly-English OP. ;) Yes! (I’ll probably blog on this when ep 2 comes out, though.)
And the stuff I’m not watching… Continue Reading »

Polyphonica 2 - The Quiet Emo

Saki 1 - Eye-Gleaming Yuri Mahjong!
I liked Saki when I picked up the manga end of last year, and was psyched to find out the anime was going to be shown this season. Continue Reading »

Guin Saga 1 - Twincest and Ninjas and Ghouls, oh my!
(Just kidding about the twincest. :P) Guin Saga doesn’t immediately start off with Guin aka Conan — instead, there’s a visible lack of music, building up to an ominous thrum as we see a wave of black horses at night rushing across the land. Continue Reading »

Shangri-La 1 - Overpowered Boomerang!
I was going to title this ep “Carbon is the Root of All Evil”, but decided Overpowered Boomerang was more accurate. Shangri-La starts off with a somewhat-tantalising scene of someone undressing…we find out her name is Kuniko (though it was hard to tell from the people chanting her name), and she seems to be getting released from some kind of detention facility.
