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 [...]

Kemonozume: Style + Substance?

Saturday, February 7th, 2009

I don’t care about style. Whether characters look pointy or retarded doesn’t matter to me as long as I get a good story. What I do find annoying is when unconventional style becomes the focal point of the anime. Style should never take precedence over substance.

Library Wars Needs Less Library, More Wars

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008

Kamen no Maid Guy: Finally, a Strong Male Lead

Sunday, April 13th, 2008

Warning: This show has the potential to be terrible. Don’t take this review as seriously as you normally take my objective, unbiased reviews. Warning #2: This show has boobs bouncing all over the place. If you hate boobs, Kamen no Maid Guy definitely isn’t the show for you. I’m ready to declare this the sleeper [...]

Legend of the Galactic Heroes: Epic

Sunday, March 2nd, 2008

When I use the word epic, I don’t cheapen it like everyone else on the internet: epic cat fight Second most epic song on the show epic banana peel slip epic win Epic wasn’t meant to be some watered-down internet catch phrase. First of all, epic can only describe stories/accounts/tales/legends/recollections/etc…. The following things aren’t stories [...]
