Ow, god my hurt heads. I slept on cold concrete floor last night without a proper pillow last night. I should really be sleeping early tonight… Unfortunately, it’s already too late for that. Gah. This episode is pretty decent. I realized that the shorter each scene is in an episode of G00, the more interesting I [...]
I’m dead tired. I spent the whole of Friday and Saturday directing traffic for this silly parade thing and reached home at 1am for two consecutive nights, and I didn’t even get to see the parade. Sigh. Episode 19 is pretty damn boring and the only high point is the new insert song LOVE TODAY by [...]
This post was delayed because I was at three separate Chinese New Year-related social functions over the 24-hour span of period between 8am Saturday and 8am Sunday. I only reached home this morning. But fret not, for this sudden spontaneous generation of what is common known as a “life” is an extremely rare occurrence that [...]
Wow cool, I actually found this episode to be pretty enjoyable, not because the writing suddenly took a turn for the better or anything (it didn’t), but because it’s just hilariously entertaining. Now I may sound like I’m being sarcastic as usual, but I seriously enjoyed the sheer campiness of this episode. It’s kind of hard [...]
The cardinal laws of Gundam story-telling: When things go wrong, it just means that it’s time to throw new Gundams at them, and when animators fall behind schedule, it’s time to do a recap episode and disguise it as real content.
This is one predictable episode. I mean, the title “Broken Wings” pretty much spoils any element of suspense that Sunrise’s scriptwriters can possibly muster, assuming they try at all. So yeah, the Gundams all get owned in a spectacular fashion, clearing the way for newer and better Gundams to take over the mess. G00, like most [...]
Anime! Anime! has an article up about the lack of growth in Japan’s anime DVD industry. (Link is in Japanese.) The article focuses on DVD sales in particular, which traditionally does quite well in Japan. It also makes some comparisons to overseas markets such as North America and briefly mentions Singapore. Surprisingly, opinions voiced in the discussion [...]
This episode is quite interesting. It’s a build-up for the huge battle that is coming soon, so there’s a whole bunch of talking and I like talking episodes, as long as it’s not mostly teenage angst. There are some new characters and background information about the G00 universe being introduced, and also, we have the new [...]
Oww. My head is spinning. I think I’ve been sleeping too much these days after coming back from Japan. Episode 13 serves to conclude the Azadistan chapter, laying the way for the new OP/ED next episode.
Today was almost as tiring as yesterday because I had to lug my 2.5kg laptop around. An EEE PC would really come in handy when I’m traveling. It’s the fourth day of our little adventure in Tokyo and we took a trip to neighbouring Saitama prefecture to visit Konata’s favourite Gamers and Animate branches. Long story [...]
This episode is pretty awesome because it does not have 10 minutes of contrived Allelujah emo, and it has some politics and background information about the world of Gundam 00! I love those. And of course, like all the other good episodes, Ms. Wang changes into a new dress. How deep does the rabbit hole go? [...]
This one is for North Americans only. Full disclosure: I was contacted by M80, a grassroot marketing agency, who is representing Warner Brothers. Since I’m such a sellout and I’m lazy to fill this blog with actual original content, I agreed to help them publicize this. The contest involves mixing your own Appleseed: Ex Machina trailer [...]
