Check-in Station: Tiger & Bunny eps1-6 (I come for the action; I stay for the advertisements.)

Have you ever watched something that was so ridiculous you thought you were watching a parody of the show you were watching?  Not following?  Well imagine you turn on your favorite program and the beginning of the show looks like a series of Super Bowl commercials.  It’s glittery, it’s flashy and the lead detective is pushing salty snacks and flavored and carbonated sugar water products in your face.

End of Year Special: The Best pt3 (Anime Series of the Year)

It’s getting well into January and I realized that I couldn’t drag things out bit by bit until February roared around and decided to streamline my end of year awards.  Let me just say that if your show didn’t make it more than likely I just didn’t get around to seeing it… or I hated it.  And that being said, this can’t be called definitive in any way.  Like all my blog entries I’m really just archiving my thoughts and experiences to look back on at a later time.  Regardless, here’s what I most enjoyed about 2010 in delicious All-American list form.

Check-out Station: Farewell Fall 2010 season! (I stayed a bit too long.)

Fall 2010 of the anime season was the first (and probably only) season of material I tried to follow almost completely as it aired.  Some may call it ambitious, I call it a f*cking chore (sorry, I watched Zero Punctuation before writing this so I may be a little “snarky” i.e. a bitch!).  But regardless I had a lot of fun, watched plenty of quality anime, and some horrid ones as well.  And normally I do goodbye post for every series I complete.  And normally I’d have time to do that.  But, and let me count, ….. ELEVEN anime means nearly eleven posts (obviously several are still ongoing) and I just don’t have the time.  Not to mention the then ongoing series that completed at or near the end of the season.  So I decided to roll everything up into one fat, American mega post and give a mini-Check-out for each and every one of these series.  Here we go!

DonKangolJones’ Images of the Week: November 29th (There’s no limit on Pervy)

Last week of November and everything this FALL season seems to be in fine form.  We pretty much know what shows are about and what shows we like; and what characters we gravitate towards and which one manage to churn the bile in our stomachs (Kirino I’m looking at you).  And for now, I couldn’t be happier with what I’m getting.  Despite my following way too many series at once, I still managed to get some manga reading done too.  So let’s see what made the cut.

Check-in Station: Squid Girl eps 1-6 (“How can you justify your existence without eating shrimp?!”)

Aside from my love of sushi, I don’t care much for squid or squid based products.  Well, that’s all changing because Squid Girl is my favorite squid based product… and it may even be better than sushi!  Behold the vicious calculated invasion of Squid Girl!

DonKangolJones’ Images of the Week

Another successful week of absorbing the drippings on Japan’s animated culture, another week of joy.  And I think one thing is truly clear.  Panty and Stocking rule the day (I mean week)!
