…Maybe the next antagonist will be a yak with a pair of bongos. Oops. Forgot to set my alarm. That said, Symphogear’s still not up anywhere in any form. Odd. Impressions: Not like it matters, this episode was just talking heads from start to finish. There comes a time in your show about girls [...]

In this month’s Genshiken II, Madarame and Hato have an awkward but heartfelt man-to-man talk and Ogiue springs possibly the worst question could ask a room of otaku. The chapter opens up right where we left off with Madarame and Hato, with Hato asking to come inside Madarame’s apartment so that they can have a [...]

Well, this short story came into being after a rather fitful nap of mine on the way back from school. It wasn’t a dream as much as my brain planning out all aspects of the story in a still image (which is the final scene by the way). I thought it was most peculiar and [...]

I’m afraid that this is one of those comics that isn’t really worth explaining if you don’t get it. Sorry. Unless you get it, obviously, though that may well register a apology also. In other news, it looks like the Black Rock Shooter TV anime is going to be streaming “worldwide” starting next week – [...]

The official Yuruyuri website announced last December that there will be a second season of the slice of life comedy anime, which will be titled “YuruYuri♪♪”. The original mangaka Namori (なもり) also affirmed this by posting the piece of art featured above on her twitpic. [Source]

Nakuru drops by to visit Kinjiro’s house needing advice. However, what she needs advice on apparently entails asking Kinjiro out on a date, which surprisingly he consents to (even if half-hearted). During the date, she explains a situation where she tells him … Continue reading →

So after the rather long break we had, we are back! So, back to the show that was scheduled to be reviewed on Tuesday. Danshi Koukouse no Nichijou, aka, Nichibros. I have to say, as expected from this show, the comedy and stupidity are as great as ever and you will have many face palm [...]

It’s another case when I try to articulate the obvious: Buying stuff–why we do it, what it means. TL;DR: Sub-licensing companies need to focus on the question “Just because you like it, will you buy it?” Partly inspired by reading Funimation’s latest survey on what they should license next, I had a moment of clarity in [...]

Nowadays, there are few series that you could really call unique. Nearly all shows base their ideas and concepts off of some other work that came before them, or build further upon concept introduced anywhere else. Once in a while though, an anime appears that just can’t be compared to anything. Hyouge Mono is one [...]

Cover Shot! is a regular feature here at the Café. I love discovering new covers, and when I find them, I like to share. More than anything else, I am consumed with the mystery that each new discovery represents. There is an allure to a beautiful cover. Will the story contained under the pages live [...]

And so it has ended. I originally thought that Sasuke would arrive to do something crazy, but this also was the perfect way to end this series with: an entire episode dedicated to the ceremony of Sennou Rikyuu, committing harakiri. It gave a beautiful closure to this series and definitely set the standards for the [...]

It’s hard to deny that anime has good music compared to other animation. For example, I don’t think a song from Spongbob Squarepants or Ben 10 would ever make it onto the Billboard Charts, but you often hear of anime music reaching the top 10 on Japan’s equivalent Oricon Charts. With music oriented anime like [...]
