Yes, you read right. I don’t think toonami will survive more than 1-2 seasons at most due to a few factors that keep it from being the next best lineup on tv – or the best Toonami. This isn’t to say I don’t like the new Toonami, because I think the lineup is amazing epic. Unfortunately though, I thinkAdult Swim’s “new” phoenix might smolder to ash rather than take off like we know it should. Let’s Begin. 1. Time Slot: Anime fans tend to be weird, making concessions for things they care about…namely, ecchi figures and anime shows. At the moment, I’m living with my dad because of a car accident I’m almost done healing from, so staying up “insanely” late isn’t really something I can count on doing…even for a Saturday. Luckily, I was able to catch the first three shows: Bleach, Deadman Wonderland, and Casshern Sins. The only show I actually paid attention to was Deadman Wonderland, but I’ll get to that later. If pretending I (or you) don’t have a dad to deal with, would you actually stay up past 3am to watch these shows??? I doubt I could, and even if I could, I wouldn’t. Don’t get me wrong, the 12 o’ clock time slot isn’t bad. It’s actually okay considering Toonami originally was an April Fools joke, but most people who can stay up late get tired around 3am. Granted, it is a Saturday, but that’s exactly my point: it’s a Saturday. 2. Social Life: ...

Another's OVA featuring Misaki Mei and Misaki imouto features what is just yet another yuri bathing scene - joining the masses of preexisting female on female moments, but succeeding in that its cuter than most.

If you are wondering why I am posting this random stumbled instead of a review… the answer to that is that I’m too tired to write up a review today.  =P Instead, I thought that this might interest you guys instead. Warning: The above video contains…graphical imagery. Alright, so we all know that Japanese people love their sashimi, and whilst I’ve had my fair share of interesting food produce stuffed in my face, I have to say that this video made me feel kinda sick. I love to eat frog legs cooked in a claypot with a nice sauce to go along with it, but damn this was so disturbing. We’ve all learned about muscle spasms and what not, but I honestly do not want to have a frog jumping around on my plate and blinking away at me whilst I am busy devouring it’s flesh. Where I can understand why someone would want to eat frog sashimi, what I can’t understand is why they would like to have it’s head served on a platter whilst it’s still alive. Maybe its just a cultural thing since I am perfectly fine with having a roasted pig’s head staring at me whilst I am busy chomping away at it’s lovely deep fried skin, but having a slimey and “not-the-prettiest-creature-in-my-books” moving on the plate just made my stomach churn. Or perhaps its that slow and soothing piece of audio that is playing that is making the video all that more harder to watch due to how contradicting it is to the actual content in my mind. Having grown up in Singapore, I know that I am sanitized to the whole idea of having the produce hanging from the storefronts in it’s entirety. But what I’ve realised after having lived in Australia for the past few years is that the friends that I’ve made are all pretty turned off by the idea of seeing the animal that they are about to consume. They would rather see a dish and forget about the animal. My point is, this got me wondering about what everyone’s opinion is on food and what’s visually acceptable. My question to you is: What’s the worse raw ingredient that you’ve eaten, where do you draw the line, and what’s your opinion on seeing the whole animal before you consume it (dead or alive)? My answer to the first question is… although I no longer find this dish particular bad since I actually like it, I know that my friends thinks that it’s gross that I enjoy eating Shirako. For those of you who are wondering what Shirako is, Shirako is essentially fish milt. The guys all feel like running away when I try convincing them to give it a go but… hey, if one is willing to eat fish eggs, I see not much of a difference between the two. =P I definitely draw the line at eating live frogs though, perhaps it just the way the creature looks, but I...

I’m glad to see the plot getting itself moving, even if it came at the cost of a rather lazily executed assassination. I mean, I totally did not see this coming, no sir. Oh well, at least good ol’ Gil … Continue reading →
