For some reason I only skimmed this show a few years ago but I never dully watched it. The name has always stuck out to me because of director Shinichirō Watanabe and his involvement with Space Dandy which is one of my all time favorites. Well I finally decided to watch the show and Mr… Continue reading Cowboy Bebop (Kaubōi Bibappu)

Space Dandy (Supēsu Dandi)
I don’t know what it is about Space Dandy that drew me in but as soon as I saw the commercials on Adult Swim, I set my DVR and had to make sure I saw it the first time and then again later by DVR. Space Dandy was actually the first Shinichirō Watanabe show I… Continue reading Space Dandy (Supēsu Dandi)
My Graphic Novel Pitch
When Oni Press released the info for the open submissions, I was nowhere near ready. I had nothing at all done really. I wanted to get the game out first and then look into the novel part of this but it’s a great opportunity. If I can get my pitch straight and that may be… Continue reading My Graphic Novel Pitch
Cross Ange: Rondo of Angels and Dragons (Kurosu Anju Tenshi to Ryū no Rondo?)
Cross Ange’s subtitle had Dragons in it so I had to check it out. There really are dragons too, lots of them. Nice. Angelise is a princess who lives in a world with people who use Mana and those who don’t. Mana is the reason there is no war or pollution or so they’re lead… Continue reading Cross Ange: Rondo of Angels and Dragons (Kurosu Anju Tenshi to Ryū no Rondo?)
When Supernatural Battles Became Commonplace (Inō-Batoru wa Nichijō-kei no Naka de)
I kept waiting for those supernatural battles and well…they never came. Somehow a bunch of students have gained superpowers (this was not explained). Jurai and the rest of the literary club, plus 2 others come into superpowers and they are just learning about them and learning how to use them. The show circles around them… Continue reading When Supernatural Battles Became Commonplace (Inō-Batoru wa Nichijō-kei no Naka de)
Blue Exorcist: The Movie (Ao No Exorcist)
Blue Exorcist is a very good series, in my opinion. Shortly after the series ended, they greenlit this movie and a few OVAs which were included with the DVDs. This movie maintains the same art style and characteristics of the series. This is set some time in the future when compared to the series. It… Continue reading Blue Exorcist: The Movie (Ao No Exorcist)
Ixion Saga Dimensional Transfer (DT Ikushion Sāga Dī Tī)
Ixion Saga Dimensional Transfer or Ixion Saga DT is a show that seemed like it would be a decent show. Swords usually make everything better right? This show is based on a game by Capcom, one that I haven’t played so I can’t really comment on the game. One day Kon is playing an MMORPG… Continue reading Ixion Saga Dimensional Transfer (DT Ikushion Sāga Dī Tī)
Unlimited Fafnir (Jūō Mujin no Fafunīru)
I had no idea what to think with this one. The name gave no clue to what it was, the preview notes mentioned dragons but if you look at the cover art, it doesn’t look like there would be dragons involved. As a matter of fact, it kind of looks like some Sailor Moon type… Continue reading Unlimited Fafnir (Jūō Mujin no Fafunīru)
Triage X
It’s time for my first Spring 2015 review. Triage X was only 10 episodes so the show is over and we don’t know if there will be a season 2. They didn’t have a distributor when the season started so it is possible but most 10 show animes don’t get a second season. Triage X… Continue reading Triage X
Kite Liberator
Kite Liberator is set 10 years after the original Kite, it’s also a 50 minute OVA. This sequel isn’t about just introducing the characters or murders like the first one. This one goes in a much different direction but just as dark. The story revolves around another high school girl named Monaka, she’s clumsy, works… Continue reading Kite Liberator
