Winter 2013 – Week 11 Anime Review
Posted by avvesione in 2013 Winter, Anime on March 24, 2013
This week: how transitioning focus away from the cantus has strengthened Shin Sekai Yori, how the diversity of settings in Battle Spheres reflect on the characters in Senran Kagura, the brilliant cinematography utilized in Tamako Market, and finally realizing what’s important in Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo.

Winter 2013 – Week 10 Anime Review
Posted by avvesione in 2013 Winter, Anime on March 17, 2013
This week: Being logical versus being theatrical in Zetsuen no Tempest, questioning the philosophical arguments in Psycho-Pass, why you can never make Kudryavka’s story sad in Little Busters!, and why Shinobu is the best character in Chihayafuru 2.

Winter 2013 – Week 8 Anime Review
Posted by avvesione in 2013 Winter, Anime on March 3, 2013
Like, fifty weeks ago or something: questions about the running gag in Sasami-san@Ganbaranai, the enjoyable school scenes in Chihayafuru 2, solving Haruka’s problems quickly in Kotoura-san, and something I dread with every episode of Space Brothers now.

Winter 2013 – Week 7 Anime Review
Posted by avvesione in 2013 Winter, Anime on February 24, 2013
This week: questions about who the real big bad in Psycho-Pass could be, some thoughts on why I continue to watch Little Busters!, social cliques in character pairings in Senran Kagura, and some earth-shattering omissions in Maoyuu Maou Yuusha.

Winter 2013 – Week 6 Anime Review
Posted by avvesione in 2013 Winter, Anime on February 15, 2013
This week: Robotics;Notes losing credibility, identifying with a character in Chihayafuru 2, the decentralization of the township in Shin Sekai Yori, the distinctive and original school uniforms in Tamako Market and why Zetsuen no Tempest is a fanservice anime.

Winter 2013 – Week 5 Anime Review
Posted by avvesione in 2013 Winter, Anime on February 10, 2013
This week: why I don’t consider Senran Kagura an ecchi anime anymore, wondering about the comedy in Zetsuen no Tempest, the diversity of karuta opponents in Chihayafuru 2 and remembering the forgotten Reiko in Shin Sekai Yori.

- @draggle_kun I wish I could make a living off that but no, it's just for my personal amusement, esp if they have no clue what anime is 4 hours ago
- Whenever someone asks me what I do for a living, I tell them I write about cartoons that air 1000s of miles away in a language I don't know 5 hours ago
- @8C not sure what you could do about the americanized part, esp since I've always seen you as open-minded and curious of other cultures 7 hours ago
- @8C maybe if you went shopping with her for ingredients or something? You'd see the name in print and could help translate it 7 hours ago
- @8C why not? I'd actually prefer not knowing the English names of the dishes. Might be a little hard at first but worthwhile in the end 7 hours ago
