Oh, Genshiken, is there no awesome you can’t handle? Yes, there is no awesome you can’t handle. Luckily for me this just happens to fall into 2008, as I bought the final volume of Genshiken just a week into January. The “moment” this is about is the point at which Madarame gives up, entirely, his ambitions [...]

Moment the Third: Twelve years old and thirteen hours
I know there’s at least one Moments post out there about ef – a tale of memories 7, and for good reason. Who among us will ever forget that phone scene? I’ve hardly been able to look at text messages the same way since. But, as far as I’m concerned, Miyako’s falling apart takes second [...]

Twelve Moments 3 — thief’s life for me

Moment the Fourth: This is tsundere
I uttered a Gundam blasphemy the day before yesterday, so, to be fair, I’m going to blaspheme against all you Haruhi devotees’ object of worship: Haruhi isn’t Hirano Aya’s greatest role. Manabi Straight’s Mei Etou is. And I’m not just saying that because Mei is the tsunderekko who made me love tsundere. Alright, maybe I [...]

Moment the Fifth: “Aniki?”
Yeah, you know what’s coming. In fact, Cuchlann beat me to the punch with this moment. Perhaps needless to say, if you haven’t seen Gurren-Lagann, and you want to, you should not read on. But if you have seen it, let’s revisit that part again.
