Kamichu! – episode 2
July 15, 2005 on 1:08 am | In Kamichu! | Comments Off on Kamichu! – episode 2“Please, Goddess”
Better than the first episode, but damn if this anime isn’t interminable. Seriously, this episode went for about fourteen years.
You know, one can only take so much of “slow magical girls with hearts of gold” before it gets old. Yurie is slightly sweet, but she is more dull; her voice actress, MAKO, does very little to help the situation.

Folks, if you’re going to Kamichu!, don’t use the original group’s releases!
UPDATE: Man, how am I going to get any work done with Half Blood Prince out this weekend?

“Missing one another”
The music in this episode was particularly good.
Honey and Clover – episode eleven

The triumphant return of Shuu-chan! Back early from his trip to Mongolia, Hanamoto comes bearing gifts. Unfortunately, he posted the letter alerting the others of his return just before he left, so it arrived just as he did.
Kamichu! – episode 1

I hate it when I have no idea what’s going on after the first episode.
Essentially the same team as Read or Die gets together to make anime about a girl who wakes up one morning and decides she has become a god. She can’t quite figure out the god of what, though.
Emma – episode 9

“When we cooks enchant the nobles with our dishes, we are the same as them.”
Sure it was a cook that said this, but I think it’s a valid point. I can comment on the social mores of this episode out in the open, but really … there’s a lot more beneath the surface.
The Snow Queen – episode 1

It’s like stepping into the seventies! Dezaki Osamu, legendary director of Rose of Versailles, Aim for the Ace! and, in modern times, BlackJack, has come up gold with this anime adaptation of Hans Christian Andersen’s dense 1845 Fairy Tale.
Honey and Clover – episode ten
July 2, 2005 on 4:22 pm | In Honey and Clover | Comments Off on Honey and Clover – episode ten“We cross the sky.”
The official stance in this episode is that the group of five has been together for two years now. It’s a nice episode with a good montage of Hagu-chan to put things in perspective, as well as showing the more depressive side of Morita.
Burn Up Excess

Honey and Clover – episode nine
June 27, 2005 on 11:13 pm | In Honey and Clover | Comments Off on Honey and Clover – episode nine
Nine episodes in, Honey & Clover has a second Christmas episode. So many series don’t get even one, and here we are now. About fifteen months must have passed since the first episode.
