Nana, Now We Are Getting Somewhere

February 24, 2010

So I finished disc 2 containing episode 5-8 of the Nana anime series. I really do not know what they were thinking for episode 6 and 7. They were basically repeats of disc 1 episodes 1-4. I thought I had entered some Déjà vu moment or something.
I had to read my disc a few time [...]

Kanu from Dragon Destiny

February 22, 2010

I started watching the next installment of the girls from Ikki Tousen:  Dragon Destiny (DD). Wow, they ampted up the fanservice in this series. But I still forage ahead to get a better understanding of why a character like Kanu Unchou is so popular.
There have been so many figures of her by several different manufacturers [...]

Darker Than Black Anime Music (yea!)

February 18, 2010

How exciting! I’ve made it to a new arc in Darker than Black. It took until the 15 episode for the music to change. I’m loving Kakusei Heroism: The Hero Without A Name by An Café.
My sister’s friend is really into An Café. I think that’s funny because I didn’t think we had anything in [...]

Nana Anime and Mid-Calf Boots

February 17, 2010

I just completed the first 4 episodes of Nana. The first 2 episode I was becoming familiar with the characters by the 3rd and 4th episodes I was ready to beat Nana (non musician Nana) up. OMG, another one of those whining characters who has the wrong impression about her life and then spends the [...]

Blassreiter and Amanda Werner Figure

February 15, 2010

Last month I finished the anime Blassreiter. I really liked it. When I watched the first episode I wasn’t really into it because I was watching it while eating lunch and I wasn’t expecting that much carnage. So, I had to stop the DVD and move on to something less bloody. After finishing my lunch [...]

Happy Valentine’s Day and Nintendo DS Marriage

February 14, 2010

Happy Valentine’s Day to those who celebrate it and those who don’t (like me) find a great anime to get you through this lovey dovey day (it helps).

Speaking of love, check out this video. It’s about a guy who really loved his Nintindo DS character and did something about it.
It’s truly amazing how [...]
