Archive for the “Anime” CategoryNo lead-ins, no explanations this time. Let’s cut to the chase. Early lineart for the GUNDAM 00 SEASON TWO MOBILE SUITS has been RELEASED!
That’s right, lil’ Setsuna. You KNOW you want to see this. Commentary straight from a raving Gundam fanboy after the break! With exams hanging over my head, I felt like I couldn’t enjoy anything, not even my favorite anime…
But now that they’re done and I’ve proclaimed my joy to the world, let’s get to my long-overdue review of the fifth episode of Kanokon! Lelouch… we need to talk. Lately, I’ve been hiding a secret from you.
Yeah. See, things between us haven’t been moving as quickly as they used to… we had a good thing going before this spring, but now I need someone who can really make things happen. There’s no point arguing - in fact, there’s already someone else. Lelouch… I’m leaving you for Suzaku! I’m getting around to this episode a little late - in fact, Kanokon’s latest episode has already aired in Japan as I write this - but it took a while for Ayako to release fansubbed torrent links, and then some final exams hit me.
Seriously. I know you think I was being lazy, but college can be pretty harsh sometimes. It was totally out of my control. Besides, ecchi is just as good a few days later as it is fresh from Japan! So let’s cut to the chase. I didn’t blog episode 3 of Code Geass last week. I don’t feel very bad about that, either.
Good question, Lelouch. Probably because I was lazy, just like Sunrise was last week when they decided to steal half of the episode’s plot elements from Death Note. But who am I kidding? I’ve been looking forward to episode 4 all week. Let’s get to the review. Episode three of Kanokon seemed to take a strange new direction for the series. Where were the panty shots? Where was the comedy? Where were the kiss scenes, even? There were just some uninspired scenarios and some out-of-place attempts at plot and character development, and I was left wondering what had happened to the Kanokon I knew and was beginning to love. And then, suddenly… As I mentioned earlier, Kanokon is the second of two anime premiering this season that I intend to keep track of on a week-to-week basis. Kanokon doesn’t have anything close to the deep storyline or explosive popularity of Code Geass… but the ecchi is fantastic. I love ecchi - love love it - and Kanokon promises to be one of the best ecchi series in recent memory. I’ve been looking forward to this week’s episode of Code Geass R2 all week long, and I’ve been looking forward to blogging it since Taishou’s creation. Geass R2 is one of two anime premiering this season that I plan to keep track of from week to week. |
