A while back in June 2009, I wrote a lengthy editorial on how fanservice can ruin the overall story of an anime. Well, this becomes a reality with Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu.
I have watch both seasons and the first season was far better besides a few panty shots is that they focused on the over [...]
With the last article, I decided to write a response to the author of “The Golden Waste” as he seems to be ranting about people not buying licensed anime for some reasons. Everyone should be buying licensed anime if they like the show and/or want to support the studio, there is no way around with [...]
After reading this particular rant, I believe that it haven’t covered the most important area. Sure, Anime have gotten cheaper, but they remain more expensive than a whole season box of a US series like Heroes or Lost which have alot more episodes and I end up spending 40-50 dollars for the whole season. Sure the [...]
Time flies when you are having fun and blogging. When February came, I went… Oh shoot! It have been a year since I have started blogging about Anime exclusively. The blogging started in February 17, 2009 when I decided that putting my Anime stuff with all the rest of the stuff on my old blog [...]
Melative Library is a Melative Client that came in the making after finishing MAL Client OS X on January 10, 2009 and evolved quickly shortly after the Unofficial MAL API broke and there was no usable API.
Although my fellow friend on Melative/IRC, kimaguresan is planning to write a article on this, I decided that I should share my own thoughts on why Crunchyroll is not only killing fansubs, but killing licensed DVDs and disadvantages.
Everyone can say that Crunchyroll is the best thing ever since you have to pay 6.99 a month [...]
With the recent outroar with the MyAnimeList switching to a new layout and breaking the Unofficial MyAnimeList API, what is there left for me? With the new layout being harder to use, no complete official API and my wasted 3 months in making my own MAL Client and being broken after that I have [...]
This is annoying. The guy adds new stuff instead of fixing broken stuff. Makes me want to write my own MAL…

This is something I didn’t realized when I woke up and after watching some anime, my MyAnimeList client broke for some reason… Well of course!
Earlier today, MyAnimeList, one of the popular Anime/Manga cataloging website [...]
For the start of this year, I have made the blog even more open by providing other ways to use your identity. In the past, you have to type in your name, URL and email address, especially if you on a different computer. Also, I only allowed Twitter users to use their identity without [...]
Before 2010 comes, there is something important that our fellow anime blogger RyanA in his post, Don’t Rely On Twitter, he mentions that in 2010, more people will rely on Twitter and abandon their anime blogs.
If you don’t know, Twitter is a microblogging service that most people say what they are doing. However, more and [...]
I have started to blog back in October of last year, mostly about topics not about anime. Suddenly, my interest for anime came back when I discovered better anime such as Suzumiya Haruhi, Lucky Star and soon after Kanon and also Clannad/Clannad After Story. This is when I started to blog about anime in middle [...]
Today is December 24th, which means it’s Furukawa Nagisa’s birthday… Happy Birthday Nagisa!
If you don’t know who is Nagisa, she is the main heroine in Clannad
While we on the topic of Christmas, I feel like reviewing some Anime’s with a Christmas Episodes…
Well, Nogizaka Haruka had one, but filled with fanservice… Well, all Christmas Episodes always [...]
MyAnimeList clients are at their infancy. Before the API came out, MAL Updater was your only choice and it only worked on Windows. The problem is that not everyone used Windows and used different OSes. MyAnimeList is a staple for most anime viewers and bloggers out there who use it to keep track what they [...]
The Bad, The so-so and the Good moments in 2009 Anime from Clannad After Story, Suzumiya Haruhi, K-ON!, Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu Purezza and Seitokai no Ichizon.
Having discovered the greener side of Anime and also Visual Novels of Key/VisualArts with my first encounter with Kanon remake by Kyoto Animation and soon after, the epicly long Bishoujo visual novel, Clannad, which was completely clean that I played for several hours (think of the Tetris Effect, I was so addicted to it.) Eventually, [...]
