I know it's not actually a good show, and honestly speaking I can't think of a reason why I'm even watching it other than "it's good blog fodder". Or rather, blog fodder to talk about, in the sense that I can kind of discuss the stuff around the show without actually talking about the show [...]]]></description>

City of Heroes has a number of dance emotes, for a given value of "dance". This is because the animator who first manipulated the game model frames for this purpose based the moves off his own flailing attempts, and I use these less-than-flattering words because I am quoting to the best of my knowledge the [...]]]></description>

We'll keep on trying. We'll tread that fine line. We'll keep on trying, until the end of time.
I admit that I didn't expect Marina Inoue to voice both versions of Natsuru. When I read the manga, Guy!Natsuru seemed like he'd be voiced by a Standard Harem Comedy Protagonist Voice Actor. I shouldn't be surprised, considering [...]]]></description>

Kuroko is not the first teleporter who gets that onomatopoeia stuck in my head. Chances are I've used this reference before, and I will use it again.
My primary familiarity with A Certain Scientific Railgun is from the manga version. Well, obviously, since the anime just started airing. Despite the title, I have the impression that [...]]]></description>

I admit that this is a little late for my usual two-posts-per-week. Let us just leave it at "Real Life" and move on.
Zettai Heiwa Daisakusen translates roughly to "Absolute/Ultimate Peace Plan", which happens to be the primary premise of the manga: two countries were at war, but peace was quickly declared when it was discovered [...]]]></description>

And all he wants to do is sing. Or swing, maybe.
For some reason this show feels over-animated to me. The art style takes a little getting used to, since I usually see it when used for scenes with a great deal of movement, when you don't have the luxury of examining every line in detail. [...]]]></description>

I'm a little iffy about the leads. They're not bad, but Saku and Mihoshi just don't really interest me all that much. It feels like they're missing something, some strange chemistry that makes other couples work. Hime is also a little too tempting a target for the plot gods to mess about with in a [...]]]></description>

One of the front-running candidates for the third spot of my Favourite Anime listing (behind Card Captor Sakura and Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya) is Hidamari Sketch, and the main reason it hasn't been shunted into the position yet is because I'm not entirely sure why. This isn't exactly a reason in itself to deny greatness, [...]]]></description>

Why do so many bishoujo games have a token cute animal (for varying degrees of "cute")? The Key anime adaptations featured theirs, with Piro in Kanon, Potato in Air, and Botan in Clannad. Nursery Rhyme has Azu, and Heart de Roommate had Toshibo. I first noticed this during the fake opening for the last Haruhi-chan [...]]]></description>

A bit later than the curve would suggest, but I've started on Spice and Wolf. Note that I said started, as in "watched about five minutes of the first episode before I had to go". I have heard tell that this anime concerns itself with being informative and educational rather than entertainment, which I admit [...]]]></description>
