This episode goes back to Fumikas background, as we get to know her father a bit more. Kaname’s meets up with his old school-friend, whose sister seems to be an admirer of Fumika’s father, who turns out to be a famous novelist (his name is Kirameki Mikawa, by the way). The sister also works for [...]

So, who's talking about School Days anymore, if you can have Shigofumi!? This really must have been one of the very, very best first episodes I've ever seen. Animation and especially soundtrack are beautiful and the character design makes the protagonists so loveable. And that's what you do, you love Shouta and Ayase, the more shocking it is how the show developes within even only one episode. I can't belive I watched so many other winter season shows while Shigofumi was already there, waiting to be watched and loved.

The bullies are ruthless in every single way, but this episode is told from a rather interesting viewpoint: from a guy who happens to be in the same class as the bullies, but in the beginning has nothing to do with them. He never [...]

02/09/2008 01:46 PM UTCShigofumi: the difference between thinking and feeling >>
Shigofumi is a bitter pill. Mindful of the pitfalls that accompany basing your views on others’ opinions, I was still surprised at how it left me cold. It highlights the difference I didn’t realise existed until recently: namely that of appreciating a show and enjoying it.
This was never a problem when I merely watched anime [...]

The rise of Shigofumi in my estimations has been tempered with a couple of problems.

Well I said I would do more occasional posts on this show since it is one of the better shows I’ve only done quick posts like this for, so here it is. It seems that the show is moving a bit beyond what I originally thought it would be. It seems like there aren’t really [...]

So, yeah. Best episode of Shigofumi yet, on the mere basis that they tantalized us (me) with tasty yuri. They even had finger sucking, which just made me flip out hardcore.
On the less pandering side of things, Shigofumi is somewhat as I expected it to be, and somewhat not. The baseless prediction I made (reminder: [...]

In this episode: Fumika’s other self.
Flavor: Sweet
Okay, seeing Fumika acting like that was absolutely weird. Not sure if this is moe~ or whatever, but to me it was amusingly odd. In fact, the whole episode had a sort of WTF feeling because of the sudden change of pace. When they first stated that they [...]
