Given Episode 1 – Musings in E minor – Gallery
You know I can’t resist a screen cap gallery, especially one full of pretty characters. I’m only human guys! I must admit, I had very few expectations for the first episode of Given (or the show in general for that matter) but I was pleasantly surprised. In fact, I talked it all over with with…
Hinomaru Sumo – An Open Weight Challenge
Genre: Sports!, comedy, school, drama Episodes: 24 Studio: GONZO People think sumo is all about girth. The biggest guy wins! And as usual, people are all wrong. Sumo is a delicate art and wrestlers take their strength from their spirit. Ok, delicate is not the right word. Art may not be the right word…
Boogiepop and Shania and Irina ep 10 – Straw Man
Irina: A straw man can mean a few things. Either it’s a a person regarded as having no substance or integrity, or it could be an intentionally misrepresented proposition that is set up because it is easier to defeat than an opponent’s real argument. Scarecrow was neither if you ask me.

Tsurune Episode 13 – Bullseye
Genre: Drama; Sports; School Studio: Kyoto Animation For the past few weeks, I’ve noticed a fairly large number of commercial for high tech shooting bows playing on YouTube.

Tsurune Episode 11 – Little Earthquakes
Genre: Drama; Sports; School Studio: Kyoto Animation Am I the only one who was a huge fan of Tori Amos when they were a kid. I really use to play her music non stop. I should see what she’s done lately. I was always particularly drawn by the way she manage to inject this pretty and…
School Club Blues
I’m a rule loving, convention abiding, consistency seeking individual (exciting right!?!) and as such Japanese high schools have often been inherently attractive to me. From the first time I set eyes on those invariably flattering uniforms to the time I realized that I could have lunch on rooftops, to a gazillion school based animes later…

Genre: Drama; Sports; School Studio: Kyoto Animation We’re actually rounding up the last few episodes of Tsurune (already? this sow has flown by for me) and a few themes are becoming quite obvious.
