Hinamizawa Bus Stop - Chapter 07 [English] [Manga]

Literally me

Hey-ey-ey... I'm so paid. This chapter was pretty great. I hope you've been enjoying this so far like me, but there's only 3 chapters left. Anyway, I don't have anything to say for the most part. Enjoy the chapter. See ya!

Mashira - Chapter 23 [English] [Manga]

True lovers connected across time and space... *snort*

And that was the end of volume 2. Also, Mashira is taking a break for a bit so that the author can work on more Saeism? Fuck. You're just going to leave us on that, aren't you? Meh. At any rate, aside from my awful and ugly covering up of the redraw, this was a good chapter.

However, I'm rather curious about what is going on behind the scenes and the plot overall. It's probably going to be some Higurashi-type shit, but with the community centre destroyed and everyone dead in sight except for Iori, I hope that his two childhood friends are still alive, but we'll probably get flashbacks for when they break through the wall. Yes, more flashbacks. In any case, enjoy the chapter. See ya!

Devilman Saga Volume 02 Chapter 15 [English] [Manga]

Shit just got real. And man, that's one way to go. Anyway, it's a real shame that not too many people are checking out Saga #2. You'd think plenty of people would considering how popular Crybaby was. Meh. More Devilman for me and you chosen few who actually read this. Enjoy the chapter! See ya!

Propeller Heaven - Chapter 02 v1.10 [English] [Manga]

Yeah, I did kinda fuck up (that Madonna song starts playing) on a few things in the first chapter, but I did go back and fix them. Anyhow, in the first chapter, there was piss color yellow stains in areas of the color pages which I forgot to mention, and a bunch of dirt and stuff on mostly all the pages especially around the border, so I do have to do some manual cleaning instead of my level script for this which I'd rather not since I'm naturally lazy. But old manga generally do have that sort of thing on them. The Betterman and 5001 Yakuza Wars manga were pretty bad as they had that progressive brown look over all the pages which did effect the quality of the pages IIRC.

Pure Kino

At any rate, they haven't exactly explained so far what's wrong with these Synthetic Humans, but hopefully we'll get some explanations soon. I mean, so far all we've seen is the Love Detective Club annoy the Synthetic Humans because of what they are which I call blatant discrimination. They've literally done nothing wrong, well, aside from ripping one of the girl's arms off. Umm. Enjoy the chapter. See ya!

Devilman Saga Volume 02 Chapter 14 [English] [Manga]

Even more talking than last time, but it is an interesting read about Japan's evolution toward a more militaristic nature just like real life among other things. Enjoy the chapter. See ya!

The Star of Cottonland/Wata no Kuni Hoshi (Anime Review)

Ah, yes, the story of a stray catgirl getting taken in by a boy. And no, although this sounds like the
plot of the average hentai VN, it isn't. Now, the only reason I watched this was because somebody posted it in the pre-2000 anime thread on /a/ and it looked cute. And well, outside of it being cute, it wasn't very good for the most part. The animation is okay with it being rather bland and lifeless at times and having mediocre to ugly backgrounds, the music is bland and uninspired, but the plot and and cat stuff were kinda neat and it does have a certain charm to it. However, what the movie fails at mostly is being able to gauge the viewers attention or interest with its rather bland characters (outside of Chibi) and drawn out scenes. To be honest, it's just plain boring.

Was it autism

Now, that's not to say there's nothing good about it. The cat stuff with them being visualised as human-like was neat, and the evolving story of Chibi and her childish mind learning from character to character as the movie progresses and her going on an adventure to find Persia/Cottonland, the land of unlimited cat food and sand pits, instead of facing the reality of her friend being dead and the themes and whatnot are interesting... on paper. Because this movie isn't enjoyable or entertaining to watch at all. My brother literally fell asleep watching the film before it even ended, but anime films always suffer from the medium that they're in as it's hard for them to gauge a viewer's interest the same as a live-action film of the same length would. That's one reason why most anime should stay in their typical 24 minute format.

Le pedo cat

To make matters worse, the movie ends on a real depressing note about every-time you wake up, you're one more day closer to being in Cottonland aka heaven, but its played of as a good thing which hurt because it shouldn't. However, it does have meaning in terms of the story, characters and themes and whatnot, I guess. But don't ask me what. I've lost enough brain cells watching this already and I can't be assed explaining. Also, I'm unsure, but did she die at the end or is it just me? *sad face* All in all, while this wasn't very entertaining to watch, it does have some interesting ideas and stuff in it that may perhaps warrant a watch, but it does come off as if written by a Japanese woman with brain damage who lives in a land of giant cupcakes and unicorns. 5\10 from me.

Propeller Heaven - Chapter 01 v1.1 [English] [Manga]

Yup. I'll be doing Propeller Heaven since I got hold of good scans from Habanero Scans which I greatly appreciate. However, I'm sure one reason why nobody did this years ago was due to how bad the public scans were. Anyhow, I really love Tomizawa's works. He's pretty good at what he does and his artstyle has buckets of charm if that makes any sense. Make sure to check out Alien 9 and Milk Closet if you haven't already. At any rate, enjoy the chapter. See ya!
