Mouth of God: Mangaka Avatars In Anime Adaptions
Bad things happen when a manga author doesn’t like the adaption of their work. Kare Kano, GAINAX’s promising shoujo romcom adaption, was hamstrung when Tsuda Masami complained that it focused too much on comedy instead of romance and refused to allow...

The Oonuma Shin Brand of OP/ED
Warnings for this post: there’ll be a lot of youtube embeds, and to get the point of the post, you’ll have to watch most of them. This post features some presumptuousness on my part; I’m going to say things like “this is Oonuma’s doing” or “this is S...
The Maturing Shinbogasm: Bakemonogatari—Dance in the Vampire Bund
Dance in the Vampire Bund is a showcase of Shinbo’s maturing as a director. His career has followed a strange and interesting path up until now, and hit a sort of new stride in 2009′s Bakemonogatari before leveling out into Bund.
Say it with me: "SHI...
Fuzakenna Version 3.5
Maybe you’ve noticed, but in these past three months, Fuzakenna has slowed down considerably, and the ratio of quality posts has been on the ugly side. At first, this was due to me writing a novel and getting back to school, but as time’s gone on, th...

Girl Friends + Vicarious Escapism + An Otaku Au Naturel: SO RONERY
Why am I alone in my room on a somber rainy day, dinner barely touched, listening to The Smiths? Because I’ve experienced ghostlightning’s definition of ‘guilty pleasure‘, I suppose. It was something I didn’t think I could experience because I don’t...

Honeymoon Salad fucked me up. I can’t decide if it’s thrown me off my groove, or into a new, more powerful groove. It could be good...

(800) Days of Fuzakenna! And Eight Awesome Eighth Episodes of Anime
I tend to miss my blog’s benchmarks. I realized in June that my third anniversary had passed in April, and I’m not sure when I broke 300,000 hits, but I’m already halfway to 400,000. But most of all, I’ve missed my specially-numbered posts, or realiz...
How To Watch Kure-nai And Like It
Kure-nai is one of my favorite shows and features the best writing of any anime I’ve seen; however, it’s an understandably difficult show to get into, and many of those who watched it back in 2008 strongly disliked it. I’ve read many of the problems...

Completed: FullMetal Alchemist Brotherhood – The Anime Juggernaut
There’s a very good reason that FullMetal Alchemist: Brotherhood is the #1 highest-rated show on MAL – it’s an anime that has everything Western fans have been looking for in a show for years, and as such has managed to raise the bar for plot-driven...

Finish or Fail 20 – Natsume Yuujinchou – A Terrorist Plot to Infect Me With “The...
This’ll be a short one, because Natsume Yuujinchou is delightfully iyashikei, and I feel like I couldn’t talk about it properly if I weren’t just being chill about it.
Looking pretty Ginko there, Natsume.
I decided to watch Natsume Yuujinchou as par...
Great Scenes in Anime 1: Gakuen Alice ep. 8 – “Can I Call You Jii-chan?”
This is the first in a post series I’ve been hoping/trying to do for a long time, called “Great Scenes in Anime”. As the name implies, it’s a series dedicated to taking a deeper look at some of my favorite scenes in anime. For the most part, these wo...
A (Hopefully) Comprehensive Primer on the Sexual Psychology of Otaku
Today, I spent about 40 minutes floundering as my psychologist bombarded me with questions about anime sexuality and otaku psychology. I had to try and explain moe to him in one sentence, then sort out the meanings of fantasy and reality for a while,...

Otakon 2010 – Mono no Aware
My Day 0 post can serve as an introduction. I’ve also posted about my haul and my karaoke performances. Here goes the daily details – please note that this post is pretty messy and long. I kept putting off writing it, but TheBigN is still doing his t...
Digiboy’s Character Database of Love – 1. Orihara Izaya & 2. Kuhouin Murasaki
Twice in the past, I’ve blogged extensive lists of my top 100 favorite anime characters, and I’ve regretted the decision to set that 100 limit for a while; partly because a favorite character list is bound to transform every time I finish a show, and...
The Step Between ‘Favorites’ and ‘Obsessions’
I’m sure it happens to all of us – we watch an anime, and it completely bowls us over in it’s awesomeness. The show changes our perspective on how great anime can be and effects us on emotional and personal levels we may not have thought possible, et...
Otakon 2010 Post One: The Haul
I’m gonna be segmenting my Otakon coverage, partly because the thing as a whole is so massive, and partly because I want the sense of accomplishment from writing an Otakon post tonight without the incredible amount of work it’d take to do it all at o...
Finish or Fail 19 – If Only A Certain Scientific Railgun Had Been More Like Kami...
I’m happy about having watched Railgun, because I’m a huge fan of A Certain Magical Index. The franchise has been one of my biggest fandoms from the past 6 months or so, and it’s got a lot of great culture surrounding it. Albeit, while I did enjoy In...
I Have Reached Otaku Nirvana
This coming Thursday, I’ll be on my way to Baltimore to attend my third straight year of Otakon. In light of this, I put some effort into watching a spot of fine anime to get my otaku juices moving – after all, for about three weeks, I’d been neither...
Finish or Fail 18 – Durararararararara!!
I knew exactly what I was gonna get from Durarara, and I got just that. Baccano is one of my top 5 anime and enough to have me riding Ryohgo Narita’s cock, so I was excited as hell about Durarara, and it delivered on what I wanted. It didn’t do it as...
Roberta’s Blood Trail and The End of the World – God, I Love Violence
Black Lagoon is one of the few shows I marathoned in 2008 that I can still remember quite, well in spite of only rewatching half of it (and reading the first volume of the manga a couple times). I remember it because Black Lagoon was a turning point...
Shaking Hands and Trading Jerseys: Congrats, Yi!
So, today my run of the Aniblog Tourney came to an end. It was quite a shocker, too, because I was keeping a pretty wide lead for nearly four days, totaling around 450 votes, which is close to the amount of votes I had in all my other matches combine...
Ookami-san and Seven Companions 1 is Great, But Something’s Not Right…
First things first: Aniblog Tourney. I’m up for my quarterfinal match against Listless Ink. It’s unbearably close so far, which is everything I’d hoped from my most worthy opponent to date. Head over there and cast me a vote (or 3) if you haven’t alr...
Completed: Angel Beats! – Watch the Bathos Drip Forth Like the Petals From a Wil...
bathos n.- 1. An abrupt, unintended transition in style from the exalted to the commonplace, producing a ludicrous effect.
2. Insincere or grossly sentimental pathos
I’d say both definitions are fairly appropriate for Angel Beats – which isn’t a bad...
F*ck You Guys, I’ll Make My Own God Damn Ultimate Post! With Hookers! And Blackj...
About a month ago, my good buddy (well, he was) Ghostlightning and I were discussing the Aniblog Tourney. GL told me about his plan, wherein a separate tournament would be held from the main event, and it would involve some of the people still in the...
Amazing… This Is Getting Exciting!
For weeks now, the Aniblog Tourney has raged on. It’s been a great ride, rife with truly intense matches, and many of my brethren have fallen. However, I still stand, and intend to go the distance. The trouble is, I haven’t had a real match yet – all...
Completed: B Gata H Kei – How To Make An Excellent Show With No Rewatch Value
(Note: I couldn’t decide how to title posts for shows that I finished which aren’t part of “Finish or Fail” series, and I didn’t want to call them “Reviews”, so I’m instituting the “Completed” title for them. Also, there will be spoilers, but they do...
Summer Season 2010 Anime Preview
It’s been a while since I did one of these. When I started this blog I did them rather seriously, and then I gradually made them sillier until I stopped altogether. This was mostly because I didn’t like most of the season previews I read, but the sen...
