12 Moments of Anime: Mihoshi’s Glomp-Ability


day04-00

Oh yes, the girl has skills. Annoying fangirls at conventions wish they were as good as Mihoshi. But alas, they are not. Maybe because they’re nowhere near cute or charming enough to get away with it. Something the very cute Mihoshi from Sora no Manimani has no trouble with.

So for the fourth day (still doubled up on the fifth day) I present, once again no moment in particular, but just Mihoshi’s glomping. There’s so much of it that it might as well be the whole series…or rather, Mihoshi herself.



Shugo Chara! – Okay…you can watch this one. (Party! 07)


party07-00

This is a filler done right guys.  Nadeshiko makes her reappearance to Amu and there’s cute Rimahiko-ness going on too. No filler characters. It’s just three of the main cast, with the emphasis not even on the two secondary ones of the trio. This is what fillers can be good for. Giving development to secondary main characters and giving the fans what they want. Like when we got to see Kairi again.

Now, I couldn’t help but fangirl for this episode because it’s fun, but I suggest you watch the episode before reading, because hype can kill your enjoyment in something. Fall for it yourself.



Mid-Fall ‘09 Impressions: Still Good


fall2010-midseasonI may not like the posters, but the anime themselves are okay.

I’m still liking the current season of anime. So people who thought I was weird for getting excited about it, nyeh-nyeh and all that immature stuff. Like I said, it was looking perfect for me. And it is~

This season I’m watching more anime than I usually do and I’m not really losing interest in anything. Usually I love a season in a preview and hopefully at the beginning before it kind of wears out. Series can start out good and then just run out of steam.



Winter Anime (2010)


winter2010

My namesake season of anime is coming up! And what does it bring me…? Almost nothing of interest. Damn.

Summer and Winter are always about half the size of Spring and Fall so I guess it can’t be helped. Still, this is probably the most disappointing season of anime for me personally since I’ve been blogging. I only found one new series I have any real interest in picking up.

Though it’s all for the best. I’ll be busy in Winter. Plus less anime = easier preview = earlier post!



Yumeiro Patissiere is My Favorite Treat


yumepatif-00

Lawl. Corny post title. But this is just what this anime does to. It really does make me want to eat my favorite treats too. Not just because all of the delicious looking food that makes this anime so dangerous to watch while I’m trying to diet (but seriously, that food). It’s just damn cute and that makes want all sorts of sugary evilness all on its own. I don’t know why cute things affect me this way, they just do. I bought a whole box of munchkins to be prepared to watch the first episode of Kobato. (And no, I didn’t eat them all.)

The point is this series needed another little fangirling post because I just love it so. Why? I don’t know. My interests seem to change arbitrarily. I want to say that super cutesy anime is a constant, but it’s just not. Sometimes it will piss me off right off the bat. So why does this series succeed where so many others fail? I don’t know, but I think it’s proportionate to the amount of sugar damage it does me. The fact that it’s a perfect amount.



Kobato. 02-04 – Wish…Filler…?


kobato02-04-00

As most Kobato. fans know, the anime was technically going to adapt their other manga Wish, which actually connects to Kobato. anyway. Kobato. includes many crossovers, but like Tsubasa (and Holic) actually connected to the CCS story, it seems that Kobato. does the same with Wish.

Not that I ever read Wish. I hope no fellow CLAMP fans get on my case when I say this, but CLAMP works can be hit and miss with me. Wish is a miss…for me. Great CLAMP-ish work I’m sure, but not for me. So I’ve been meh on the whole wish adaptation all along. Not against it, just…don’t really care about it. :roll:
