Here’s something that occurred to me the other day when I was stumbling as usual through the fiction-writing process: speculative slice of life anime and manga, even those with some emphasis on festivals, rarely include an event analogous to Christmas as manifest in the United States. This is not to say that gifts aren’t given [...]

It’s like the Bespin fight, with more schoolgirls
That’s a Star Wars reference, for those plebians among you. Episode six of Maria-Sama ga Miteru does indeed mark not only the halfway point for the newest season, but also the darkest hour (though perhaps that’s actually the next episode), in which the characters are backed against the wall. I started typing this with no clue [...]

Haibane Renmei 5 — Renmei Harder
It’s time to put this gross love-child of jam bands and pot-head philosphy majors to bed, to bed I say! Beneath the cut, live-updated, lies the twitter-blog for the final two episodes of Haibane Renmei.

Haibane Renmei 4 — Beyond Thunderdome
Volume four of my epic scourging, like that of the great heroes of old, continues here. If you want to follow along, I’ll update the post as I watch, rather than waiting until the end. EDIT: It’s no longer being live-updated, so you can read it, confident you are seeing the whole of my thoughts on [...]

Haibane Renmei post three, for lack of a better title
If you’re waiting for amelioration, this post has it: I find some things to like here, finally. Also, experimenting with pure twitter-blog at the end. That is, if you check, I’m actually not finished with the episode yet, and will update periodically throughout viewing. EDIT: Okay, finished now. If you prefer your blog-reading to be normal, [...]

Once more into the breach and all that jazz
Clearly we need to get a few things straightened out before we continue. If Haibane Renmei is too much of a sacred cow for you to bear seeing it made fun of, don’t click through to the rest of this post. If you believe everyone must have the same tastes you do, and you love HR [...]
