Hey what was that show that was announced earlier this year? Looked like it took place in a desert but had an 80s anime style to it yet looked fresh. Had some really famous names attached to the project too, can't really remember :(

Maybe the joke would have worked with HidaSketch.

It was called Ozma. It's available on crunchyroll. It was a pile of poo.

Was it related to Votoms?

Seems like a good time to get back into anime. Although I still need to finish the following - MGX, Space Brothers, Ghost NTR Hyouka, E7 AO, Fujishit etc. Probably won't bother with those last two shows tho.:p

Hyped for psycho-pass, magi and from the new world. Looking forward to chuunibyou demo koi ga shitai! will check out other stuff in this season, if it gets good impressions.
 
Pokemon B/W Rival Destinies 32


This week they help a rich dad choose his daughter's first Pokemon only to see that he should allow her to choose whatever boyfriend Pokemon she has already become friends with.

But, whatever! It looks like we're heading towards a B/W 2 detour now!
 
La Maison en Petits Cubes

Awful confession time - I don't think of this as "anime". It doesn't fit into the neat visual boxes I think of for anime. That's not to say it's bad - because it really isn't, it's beautiful and enjoyable - but it means it gets upgraded to "animation"...

Reminds me of the ANN database synopsis for Cat Soup: "It is more a work of art than an anime."

Aaah, understood! But don't worry, MAPPA was already dead to begin with... we have to focus on Shin Itagaki here, the studio is a mere vessel...
don't hit me!

You see, he has been incorporating the characters of this new show on his habitual column for WEB ANIMESTYLE, and he (as always) has such a cool "style" (never better said, and random as well as the name of this column implies) that it is very difficult to not expect that it influences at least a bit of this upcoming work:

板垣伸のいきあたりバッタリ! | WEBアニメスタイル
http://animestyle.jp/column/battari/

Well, MAPPA would have to be a mere vessel for this project, wouldn't it? I mean, a corpse is just a shell...
okay, okay, I quit now!

Y'know, because I respect your opinions so much, I'm going to buck the prevailing logic and watch at least the first episode of Teekyu. Granted, I am the scrubbiest person alive when it comes to matters involving recognition of staff and familiarity with source material, but I try to compensate by watching things when particular names are invoked as a reason to experience something and, in doing so, hopefully pull myself another inch out of the pit of ignorance.

Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo

Director: Atsuko Ishizaka
Studio: J.C. Staff
Air Date: 10/04/12
Site: sakurasou.tv

‘The Pet Girl of Sakurasou’ kinda sounds like a porn in the making.

It’s some kinda fanservice anime about a girl who’s kinda not there and the boy who becomes her master. Or something. Mari Okada, the woman who saved noitaminA with her efforts on Ano Hana, is working on this. She’s notable for being pretty fucking terrible at her job, so I’m confident that this will be a good show.

Dis gonna be good. Okada writing a comedy? How can it possibly go wrong?!

Six episodes was too few for what it wanted to do, barely no character development, compelling world and backstory barely explored, so much lost potential...might as well check it out.

That was how I was generally left feeling. Either needed to be shorter and more focused or longer with more development. It wasn't satisfying at all with what was given.

Oh, man! Now I have the impression you are going to end up hating me (or at least distrusting me) if you don't like it... I'm feeling the pressure already!

Eureka Seven Ao 15 - 21

KhJ5V.jpg


ladies and gentlemen who supposedly are fans of anime, I have one final thing I want you to consider. Ladies and gentlemen, this is Chewbacca. Chewbacca is a Wookiee from the planet Kashyyyk. But Chewbacca lives on the planet Endor. Now think about it; that does not make sense!

Why would a Wookiee, an 8-foot-tall Wookiee, want to live on Endor, with a bunch of 2-foot-tall Ewoks? That does not make sense! But more important, you have to ask yourself: What does this have to do with this anime? Nothing. Ladies and gentlemen, it has nothing to do with this anime! It does not make sense! Look at me. I'm a person defending Eureka Seven Ao, and I'm talkin' about Chewbacca! Does that make sense? Ladies and gentlemen, I am not making any sense! None of this makes sense! And so you have to remember, when you're watching Eureka Seven Ao, and you're trying to piece together everything that's gone on till now, does it make sense? No! Ladies and gentlemen who are supposedly fans of anime, it does not make sense! If Chewbacca lives on Endor, you must acquit! The defense rests.

Faves of Summer:

Hyouka omitted due to the fact that I still have a few episodes left.

Japanese cult Happy Science comes out with yet another historically, theologically, and logically challenged movie with unfairly high production values. If the previous five movies are any indication though, this looks to be perfect material for MST3K-style riffing and should prove to be highly entertaining. It'll have space nazis. How could it not?

I'm really hoping this is the film that speaks to me. Others have come close but I think I'm ready to learn a little more about Happy Science now.
