Black Cat and the Cloneasaurus

Friday, January 27th, 2012

One of my earliest posts criticized the Black Cat anime for cramming too much material in to too few episodes, as exemplified by its superficial development of Flora-chan, a dinosaur brought to life by advanced cloning techniques. I finally got around to reading Black Cat in its original form of matter. As expected, it was [...]

Shingeki no Kyojin = (Shadow of the Colossus + Evangelion) / 2

Saturday, December 17th, 2011

Gantz: Manliest Anime Manga Ever?

Saturday, September 26th, 2009

As you can infer from this kickass manga shot, I’m not trying to bullshit you about manliness like all those feminine hygiene commercials. If you buy anything that’s marketed as  “_______ for men,” you’re a tool. It’s just like X-treme marketing. Putting the same shit in a different container doesn’t make it suck less. I [...]

Saturday, August 15th, 2009

“Onani means masturbation. And that’s what this guy is good at. Every day after school, he sneaks into the mostly unused girls bathroom on the 3rd floor, and masturbates. Until one day when he’s caught… This is a story of mistakes, redemption, and the choices made in between. It contains the very worst and best [...]
