A Seasonal Review: Spring 2012

I’m a bit late. Sorry. That’s mainly because I have been extraordinarily busy, and last season had a ton more good shows than usual. I was planning to finish more of them before writing this, but it doesn’t appear that that’s going to happen. Oh well.

I’ve loosely ranked the season’s shows from worst to best (rough guide: A=awesome, B+=great, B-=good, C=decent, D=bad, F=fail). The numbers in parentheses are how I ranked that series’ first episode at the start of the season. Let’s see how much things have changed.

I’ve tried to keep this post concise. Let’s begin!

So bad I couldn’t finish the first episode: Shibainuko-san, Saint Seiya Omega, Pabu and Mochizu, Naruto SD, Gakkatsu, Arashi no Yoru ni: Himitsu no Tomodachi

Dropped after the first episode: Hiiro no Kakera (29), Acchi Kocchi (28), Folktales from Japan (25), Kuromajyo-san ga Touru!! (24), Gon (23), Kuroko’s Basketball (20), Zetman (19)

Still Planning to Watch Eventually / Excuses

Honestly, this is probably not going to happen anytime soon. This show sucks.  Continue reading A Seasonal Review: Spring 2012 →

Site Announcements

Lots of exciting things going on in the anime blogger universe.

  1. I have a new layout! Special thanks to Ahelo of Traveler on Revenge for designing the gorgeous new banner! He made three more as well, which I am looking forward to rolling out in the future! All of these banners are beautiful, and I’m quite happy with how the site looks now. If you’re wondering, I made the background image, and I don’t think it’s too shabby either!

    Let me know what you think of the new layout, and if there’s anything I can do to improve it.

  2. I wrote a guest post with Cholisose on the movie Angel’s Egg. We had quite different opinions, so check out our discussion!
  3. I was a guest on an internet radio show,  run by JoeAnimated of We Remember Love. I spoke with Joe and Aeroblip of Desu Ex Machina. You can listen to our discussion here. Prepare to be disappointed by how my voice sounds.
  4. I may have mentioned this before, but I wrote a post a while back at Beneath the Tangles on Aquarion Evol. Check it out here!
