Hello Moon Children,
I know I’ve been annoying you with my constant chattering about Scott Pilgrim. But all of that is over. I present to you….the ultimate Scott Pilgrim Map!
Now, you’d be correct in asking why me and my friends would spend hours up hours mapping out almost every single location in the comics. No real […]
Spain just won the FIFA World Cup, making every city (including mine) extremely loud and annoying as everyone tries to pretend they were rooting for Spain all along. Also, this FIFA has been more obnoxious than almost anything on earth…or Middle-Earth.
But in my desperation to fill my head with positive sports thoughts and thus not […]
Dammit. Why is there so much crappy josei in the West? It’s not like there are a lot of titles to choose from, and when 75% of them stink…gah, it’s so frustrating.
On that note, NotHayama wrote a mini review of Ristorante Paradiso. It’s not particularly positive.
In other news, Togainu no Chi is getting animated (trailer […]

I liked Bad Jew’s last update. It was very…real. And by “real” I mean it existed, which was exciting for this place and its awful, awful updating schedule of once every when-we-get-off-our-asses (aka four months).
But you’ll like this update better, because it has STUFF. A mini review of Kami no Shizuku by Bad Jew and […]
In honor of the release of a big ol’ Nana anime boxset in the West, we updated our Nana not-that-Mini Review, since NotHayama left it somewhat open-ended last time and our contributor Orange Skirt wanted to add her opinion (and cover the non-manga versions of the franchise). The review is now significantly more robust, although […]
First, on the update front: I posted a Mini Review of Kuroshitsuji/The Black Butler anime, since I watched pretty much the entire series on Saturday during my exhaustion-spurred protest against Getting Off the Couch. I also updated the Reviews and Mini Reviews archives because that was super overdue.
Second, come to the Toronto Comic Arts Festival […]
What’s this? Did I spend weeks writing a full review of a series nobody will probably ever read? Why, yes! Yes, I did!
And I have two things I’d like to comment on:
1.) OMG
and
2.) WTF
I wrote and posted a Mini Review for the Earl and the Fairy anime about a week ago, but then never did this post to mention that. Genius = me.
Most everyone has already talked about the new license announcements by now, and how Yen Press is going to make a million billion dollars on Yotsuba […]
Bad Jew’s resolution for 2009 is to write more for the site, so his first Mini Review is of solanin, the manga every critic loves with the fire of a thousand hot Latin suns. It’s got indie appeal, is about 20-somethings who don’t know what to do with their lives, and features a not-very-good amateur […]
It’s Geek Current Events time!
1.) I still haven’t been laid off from Tokyopop, huzzah. I even got a new series from them, one with VAMPIRES IN IT. Mweh heh heh.
2.) Speaking of vampires, for any of you who heard the scream of a thousand fangirls this week, that’s because there was a climactic kiss in […]
