The Place Promised in Our Early Days
It’s been a while since I saw an anime that I’ve really enjoyed, one that would give me cause to pick up a wooden placard and preach about it to random people on the street like a raving, Armageddon-prophesying madman. Alright, I admit. I wouldn’t do that. That said, it did get me thinking about doing such a thing. Perhaps a simpler illustration would serve better: not since Code Geass have I been so impressed by anime. Nuff’ said, methinks.

Spice and Wolf II
Huh. I just realized that I never made a post on the first season of Spice and Wolf- and here I am jumping into a review of its second season. Ah well. Speed review of season one, people? Here goes:
Craft Lawrence, white-haired but no geezer, is a travelling merchant whose dream is to make it big and have a shop of his own. One day, while camping somewhere between towns, he wakes up to find a naked girl in the back of his cart. Her nudity doesn’t hold his attention for long, though- she has a tail and animal ears. So begins Lawrence’s journey with Horo the wolf-goddess… Bah. That felt like something an underpaid bit-column newspaper writer would mash out. That was how I meant it to be though, so I guess I shouldn’t be complaining, haha. Continue reading Spice and Wolf II: Futures Trading, Medieval Politics, and Inter-Species Courtship
Tieria's Gravure Debut
“For this post, I will be conducting a dissertation on the art of cross-dressing without ending up looking like a certain idiotic former soldier-turned-butler. I shall begin with the basics of makeup…” Oh shut up, Tieria. He’s one of the main characters in the series I’ll be ‘reviewing’ today… I wonder where he snuck in from. Ah well. Just try to ignore him… Continue reading Gundam 00: Gravure Idols, Rock Bands, and Scrap Metal
Nabari no Ou
Before I go on, a few words: It’s been about a month since my exams, but I still haven’t gotten around to moving to wordpress.org. When will it happen? I keep saying ‘soon’, but nothing has happened yet. And I did say I wanted to move this holiday. Oh well.

(be)witched
Found this excellent picture floating on the internet, for everyone who hopes Lelouch is still alive and kicking. So what if you can’t read Japanese? It’s a marriage certificate! What more do you need to know other then that the dream couple of Code Geass has finally been united [...]
シー・ツーの脆弱な夢
また変な夢を見た。主役は「コードギアス 反逆のルルーシュ」のルルーシュ、シー・ツー、そして….もう一人の新キャラクタ。予告以上。
シー・ツーが黒の騎士団の指令本部に入った。だがルルを探していた彼女は、恐ろしい者をみてしまった。
シー・ツー「ルルーシュ、ここにいると思った。お前とちょっと用事があるんだ．．．きっ．．．ルルーシュ。そいつ、何者だ」
彼女が見たのは．．．自分自身とユーフェミア姫の組み合わせの．．．生命体。そいつを人間だなんて認めたくなかった、彼女は。
シー・ツー「ルルーシュ、なに、それ」
本を読んでいたルルーシュが彼女のことを気づいて、その本をテーブルにおいて、冷たい目でシー・ツーを凝視した。
ルルーシュ「きにいらないのか、シー・ツー」
シー・ツー「言うまでもないじゃないか。私を誰だと思うのか」
．．．実は今の会話はすべてアドリブした。その二人は何を話していたかはぜんぜん知らないけど、シー・ツーは多分、こう思う：
シー・ツー「しってたんだ。ルルーシュが私に言ったことを．．．仲間なんて．．．俺はもうお前しかないとか．．．全部．．．多分．．．嘘だっただろう。この自分しか愛さない男の言葉を信じた私としては。。。」
日本語がやばくなちゃってごめんなさい。クラスを辞めたからも一年たっただろう。JLPT2級をうけたいのにどうすりゃいいのかよ～
