School Rumble (8)

The seeds are sown for what's her face's crush on Harima. I care so little I already forgot her name. What matters is that Tenma got a little closer to Karasuma. Yay for Tenma!

Genshiken (7)

The art in this episode was really inconsistent. Thankfully the ep itself wasn't good to begin with, since it had Akira Ishida doing a guest voice! Blah!

Gakuen Alice (4)

If he were a Kinnikuman wrestler, he'd be known as Nerves.

flame boy likes the hair, I figured he'd be more of a throat guy

Mikan discovers her alice thanks to the Human Torch, and is already well on her way to becoming the school's psychiatrist.

Tsukuyomi -MOON PHASE- (8)

( OP change ) ( eyecatch )

Haduki gets captured quite easily by the baddies and Kouhei and grandpa go to rescue her. I hope this rescue doesn't take up the remainder of the series - it's too early.

Games > Anime

I skipped my weekend anime blabbering because of Metal Gear Solid 3, Metroid Prime 2, Half Life 2, Viewtiful Joe 2, and Halo 2. They're good reasons, I assure you.

Grenadier ~Hohoemi no Senshi~ (6)

Old school Touka. Glad she changed her hair.

It's a balloon for cryin' out load! Just throw a rock at it!

Rushuna puts the finishing touches on the bandits from the previous episode. I still can't believe that Mikan's a freakin' "balloon user." Balloons! What's the point!?

Mai-HiME (8)

So Akane is a HiME too. Well she was, until crazy cyborg Miyu destroyed her child, which in turn took her powers, which in turn killed her boyfriend. Man, third string characters have the worst luck. I totally wasn't expecting Miyu to be an anti-HiME, if that's what she is, but I like it!

School Rumble (7)

Too much pool hockey, not enough funny.

Sunabouzu (7)

How comes she gets the dinky shaped hat!?

After a little convincing, Suna lets Taiko be his apprentice! Every episode following this one will automatically be awesome now.

Tsukuyomi -MOON PHASE- (7)

I swear this lady just can't stand still!

( fashion show ) ( OP change ) ( eyecatch )

Kouhei gets pissed at Haduki for using her mind control powers on Hiromi. All is well by the end of the episode however, making this harmless but enjoyable filler. The song used for the ED this time was the insert song from the third episode "Umi no Toriko ni Naru you ni" by Noriko Ogawa.

Genshiken (6)

I see catfights in their future! Catfights!

Kanji's sister is a slut, but at least she's a generally polite slut. I was expecting her to be a generally bitchy slut.

Ryuusei Sentai Musumet (7)

Had the explosion behind them and everything, woo!

Otomet! The Saotome Sisters totally own this show now. Shion spoke so much Engrish it made my head hurt. I love it!

Uta Kata (7)

Come on! You're supposed to be a super spy.

Ichika's red eye is getting worse, making her EVEN MORE depressed, to the point where she starts abusing her charm powers. Bad Ichika! Bad!

Kannaduki no Miko (7)

Don't change the channel! I like this station.

Miyako tries to convince Chikane to join the dark side but she turns the offer down, AFTER getting felt up. I like the way she thinks. Meanwhile, Souma puts the smack down on Loli Trash, Bootleg Da Crapo Girl, and The Mamiko all at once then scores a kiss from Himeko. Now Souma and Chikane are tied for kisses. Who'll make the next move!? The excitement is killing me(...).

Gakuen Alice (3)

the ants are regretting their pick from this picnic

I'm fine with the duckmobile, but that helmet needs much work.

After catching up with Hotaru for a bit, Mikan gets sent into the north forest by Natsume to prove herself. I forgot that Chiwa Saitou does a voice in this show. She's Sumire, the snobby president of flame boy's fanclub, and unfortunately she sucks.

Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha (7)

Don't see these shadows too often in anime.

Crono, voiced by Mikako Takahashi(Rushuna in Grenadier).

Awesome episode, but what was with all the timestamps? I thought it was a cool touch, but just breaking them out mid series was kind of weird. Anyway, I can't say I'm too excited about these Space-Time Administration Bureau people and their dimensional starship. I am however excited about Fate's super bitch mom and thoughts of her ultimate demise at the hands of the Nanoha/Fate team-up!
