Sword Art Online 02 — Social Ineptitude

Sword Art Online,

Over 75% of the voters in my poll wanted me to blog Sword Art Online. I’m not entirely sure why it’s so popular, but I guess I’ll blog it. I don’t play MMOs at all, so you’ll be getting the perspective of an outsider here.

I thought I was socially incompetent, but these MMOers make me look like a rock star. Our hero has been in the game world for over a month by now. He is going to kill the first floor boss. And what is our hero most concerned about? That he’ll be the last one picked at the playground and won’t have anyone else in his party. Basically, after an entire month in the game world, he still hasn’t made a single friend! Continue reading Sword Art Online 02 — Social Ineptitude →

Gundam AGE Renounces the Devil and All His Empty Promises (a.k.a. Gundam 00)

Discussion,

Gundam 00 was one of the most vile and despicable shows to come out of Japan in recent years. I see Gundam AGE as a response to and a renunciation of the ideas in Gundam 00. Let’s put aside for a moment my blinding hatred of Setsuna F. Seiei and the fact that Gundam 00 simply sucked, and look at the main themes of Gundam 00 and how Gundam AGE renounces each.

I’m looking for three more shows to blog this summer. I’m not really sure what to pick, so I thought I would ask my readers. Go ahead and vote for at most three. This poll is non-binding, but I will take it into consideration. Thanks for your help!

I’ve already decided to pick up Tari Tari and Humanity has Declined. Space Brothers is still carrying over from the fall, but it’s starting to bore me and I’m thinking about dropping it. If no one wants me to continue that will make the decision easier.

You can also try to convince me in the comments. I’d especially appreciate it if someone wants to convince me to blog / not blog Muv-Luv, I really liked the second episode but I am afraid to blog it since I heard the rest of the show is nothing like it.
