Alternatively titled, Why is Kirino such a bitch? Lately, the string of OreImo episodes (the last being 9 so far) have led me to believe that, well, she is. She has an absolutely terrible personality around Kyousuke; whenever he’s around, she’s obnox...

anipost.tumblr.com Alright, so I finally got off my lazy bum and started up this project. But truth be told, the idea’s been brewing in my head for about 2 years now. Nowadays, anime bloggers are getting to know each other more and more personally –...

note: the cover actually says “He died in battle. He was born in victory.” Lately, bookstores here (actually just one chain of bookstores) have been bringing over small amounts of less-known localizations of manga and light novels like the Faust anth...

So damned average. Unlike feel.’s* other work, which sparked quite a bit interest (in all the wrong ways), Fortune Arterial doesn’t stand out at all. Sure, Lia sang the opening, and the animation was pretty consistent throughout, and the soundtrack w...

I was sorta looking forward to Milky Holmes, based solely on my prior knowledge of it having a team of four lolis. And that it’s based on one of several bazillion trading card games from BushiRoad. But it’s really all about the lolis. Or so I thoug...

Some a couple years back, I read a guy’s post on his impressions of the manga, and I really wished that they’d make an anime of the manga. Fast forward to now – they have! Shinryaku! Ika Musume is a gag anime that embodies two ever-growing trends in...

Happy 萌 Day! At least for the guys in GMT+8! I guess that’s it.

Quite literally so. Ore no Imouto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake wa Nai, or OreImo for short (thankfully), is one of the more anticipated shows this season, along with The World God Only Knows (which I’ve yet to get to watching). The main character, Kyous...

I finally got to watch one of my more awaited shows this season during a bit of a break at school. Since it was a full two and a half hours or so, I figured I might as well go somewhere quiet, with not a lot of people. Hoo boy, I made the right call....

Following some of TLWiki’s translators and other staff being hired by JAST USA, just last July of 2009 or so, another group’s been hired to help with adapting and localizing visual novels/eroge – No Name Losers (NNL). For those less knowledgeable on...

Just a while ago, there were a few guys tweeting about something called “Recettear” on my timeline. But wait- the only “Recettear” I know is that shopkeeping RPG from 3 years ago! And well whaddayaknow – it’s one and the same. Except this time, it’s...

After a rather lengthy week-long FPS binge break, let’s get back to discussing audio! Next on the list is amplifiers – why you may need one, the kinds of amplifiers, and a short list of popular amplifiers. It’ll be a little short, unlike all the othe...

Sony MDR-CD 900ST Anyway, picking up from the last post, I’ll be discussing digital-analog converters or DAC’s. We’ll start off with the basics and then move onto the different forms of DAC’s. I’ll also talk a bit on the advantages and disadvantages...

AKG K501 (may be NSFW) After getting down the basics and on how to pick a headphone, let’s take a step or two back and look at the process in which music is transformed from a bunch of zeroes and ones to the soundwaves coming out of your speakers and...

Sony MDR-XB700 Today I’ll be discussing how to pick headphones! I’ll be giving a general idea on what to do to when getting a new headphone; only dynamic headphones in this entry though. Not sure what dynamic headphones are? Read my earlier post for...

click for full size Headphones have long been considered a moé point when it comes to anime-styled illustrations and such. However, this time I’m not going to wax poetic (again) on their aesthetics. Instead, I’ll be taking a more practical approach t...

After watching Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou 04, this one picture stuck to my mind – “I know I’ve seen that sort of shape somewhere!” After a bit of research, I stumbled upon the Guangzhou Tower. Okay, so they’re not all THAT similar. There are numerou...

Something that’s always been on the back of my mind is localization methodology. Particularly, Japanese language pop culture media, like anime, manga, games… You know the drill. Now that I’m getting ready to start re-translating Koi Koi Seitokai, thi...

evil I’ll say it straight: I’m quitting anime. So a lot of people might be asking what gives. What is the reason for this turn of events? In my stay at university, away from the confines of my all-male alma mater, Xavier school, helped me to realize...

So how did everyone else spend theirs?

Just a short list of things I found interesting: The color and finish of Filicia’s fountain pen are somewhat similar to a Nakaya Long Cigar in Aka-tamenuri or Heki-tamenuri. It could also be a Neo-Standard. The nib looks to be either stainless steel...
