With ARIA having finished for good, it certainly has brought about many tears that we will never again see the magic of Neo-Venezia and it’s inhabitants. Although the manga and anime has finished, it still lives on, in the form of merchandise! When was the last ARIA-related merchandise post?? I don’t remember. Anyway these actually arrived about two weeks ago and have been sitting on the ever growing pile of loot, so I figured it’s time to have a look at what’s inside. Hit the jump to check out what’s inside Monthly Undine Vol 4-6.

A little late on the bandwagon for this, but the Anime Blogger Awards nominations are nearly over, in fact nominations end tomorrow. I’ve already nominated some blogs a few weeks ago, but I already forgotten who I nominated for, but I’d like to give thanks to those of you who nominated Moé Moé Rabu for a contender for Best Figurine Blog. Though I don’t see myself having a hell in chance of winning, but it’s all fun and games for this kind of stuff.
Voting will be open to the public from the 25th April till the 1st of June, so it’ll be kind of interesting to see who wins what. Although some categories we can already see definite winners, there are some good competition for some of the other categories. So if you have a blog and haven’t placed in your nominations, then head over to the site and sign up.

Having paid the Japan trip last Saturday, it was time to go all out once again with the spending splurge and Kinokuniya happened to be conveniently above the travel agent. Well it has roughly been two months since I last headed into Kinokuniya, so there was bound to be something for me to buy. But given in was two months it was quite a lot. Anyway upon grabbing most of the things I know that I wanted to buy, there is always the chance of finding something totally unexpected. Just before heading to the counter, I happened to have spotted this artbook - Sasaki Mutsumi’s latest artbook. Hit the jump to see what’s inside.

After watching the first episode, I was pretty impressed by it, but after watching the second episode, I’m sold on it. If anything this episode was much more funnier than the first now that Naoki and Kotoko are living together, but with Naoki being the cold bastard that he is. It really does seem impossible on how the two of them could become a couple as you can plainly see the difference between the two in not just intelligence, but attitude as well. Of course when two opposites clash against each other, it always makes things interesting.

For some very strange reason the second episode feels a lot different to the first one, and I’m not sure why that is. It may just be the voices of the characters as I’m probably not used to it yet, or either I’ve been watching too much lately, lol. Anyway I enjoyed the second episode as much as the first but I can only say one thing, Mikan is the best girl so far. Knowing her dear brother so well as to warn him not to do anything stupid, but also knows that he doesn’t have the guts to carry out such actions is even better. Shame she doesn’t appear all that much in the manga. Continue reading ‘To Love-Ru - 02′

…… in August! As some of you have noticed I’ve been mentioning it for quite some time but it’s all coming to fruition. I paid for my airfare and accommodation last Saturday along with 3 of 4 other friends, and we’re all as pumped as ever. Of course one of those friends is my dearest Roobar, and it has been 2.5 years since we last went to Japan. This time, it’ll be a much more epic trip for us.

You know I never knew you could combine pro-wrestling and a romance comedy together, until now. Special A is another romance comedy series for this season but I’d have to say, I didn’t find it all that enjoyable for the first episode. Sure there were some funny parts but this just seemed so bland and I prefer Itazura na Kiss over Special A. Well this is a co-produced series by Gonzo and AIC, but I don’t think Gonzo has the know how on making a romance comedy (have they ever made anything similar?).
