anime of 2010: fav series poll & summary

It’s here again: the poll for fav series @ anime-source.com

In the meantime, I’ll just make a summary post of sort for titles I’ve watched.

[ July] New Series Impressions

New month, new season, new shows to start on. Not a bad line-up to start with, look pretty promising.

1. Black Lagoon OVA
2. Kurenai OVA
3. The Wolf & her 7 Friends
4. Seikimatsu Occult Academy
5. Amagami SS

An Epilogue to 2009 [Part 1]

Okay, so I’ve blogged for slightly more than a year and this is the second round-up/summary article! Yeah, this year kind of lacked a punch. The prominent studio of this year seems to be SHAFT, establishing themselves with their now trademark post-modernist arts and witty dialogue. This fame is probably matched by Production IG, with shows like Higashi no Eden: simple character designs, but very detailed background. Kyoto Animation upped their stakes as the studio of moeblob shows but also suffering a certain notorious marketing strategy.

Happy New Year

新年おめでとう,皆さん~

And it’s the year of the Tiger~

遊びの時間はどこ… …？

Lesser and lesser time for blogging, lesser and lesser time for anime… … yeah, I’m still ranting about it. Look forward to the holidays…so, summary post, since I’ve been missing out on alot of series recently. Fortunately, or unfortunately, depending on the point of view and the related conscience alignment attached, there aren’t anything particularly outstanding anyway. No new series so far seemed really impressive.

Also, of the blog, I’ve also added a new page (next to the Profile): anime I’ve watched and reviewed. Feel free to comment on them in the page itself!

Memorable Scenes of 2008’s anime

Here’s my personal take on the Top 3 Most Memorable Scene for the anime this year.

1. Code Geass R2 wins hands downs. Especially this scene, where Lelouch declares :
” The whole world: Obey me!”
Fabulously epic. Wins the best quote of the year.

2. Lucky Star
The RPG scene and the Kagami-Cinderella (cosplays included)

3. Kannagi
It’s a Sony. Hell yeah.

[Anime of 2008 in a nutshell] A little ranting to end off the year

It’s already late December, and soon, the curtain to year 2008 will soon be closed and the stage is pending being given to year 2009. So here’s a little reminiscence post of sort. Well, of the anime community, 2008 on the whole has been pretty eventful, filled with considerable number of memorable series and events. Unfortunately, 2008 seemed to begin with more disappointments than pleasant surprises, though thankfully, it ended with quite a few splendid new series to pick up. So, what are the elements which defined and highlighted this year?

C.C, Code Geass
