http://proon.puppyrush.net Experience the world of anime, manga, and video games from East Karana Thu, 19 Nov 2009 12:58:07 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en I don't watch anime anymore. Too much terrible. I always knew it was awful, and watched it with that floating in front of my eyes at all times, but Haruhi really took a hammer and nailed it into my brain so deeply I can no longer remove it. Of course ... http://proon.puppyrush.net/?p=1082 I didn't know until about a week ago that this whole Endless Eight thing was big news to people. Apparently it is, so there's not much for me to say about it. It's either a truly retarded move orchestrated by some of the worst minds in the industry, or it's ... http://proon.puppyrush.net/?p=1081 I can't believe it. I literally can't believe it. There are very few things in life I find it imperative to reject for the sake of my sanity, but I think I've run into just such an instance. They did last episode. Again. The same exact thing. Nothing happened. Nothing was solved. It was ... http://proon.puppyrush.net/?p=1080 Here's the rub: last episode was largely the same as the one preceding it. Which, although disappointing, fit in with the story. Same as in the novels, it all made sense, I get it. In the summary for that episode I said I wished they had rolled it together with ... http://proon.puppyrush.net/?p=1079 As I'm scrolling down the list of pre-alphabetic characters, most beginning with [HugeDorkZ] and similar, I am struck with such a tidal wave of loathing for the shows in general, what they may contain and the very thought of me viewing them in particular. Simply envisioning myself sitting down ... http://proon.puppyrush.net/?p=1078 It's summer vacation time! Haruhi makes a list of summertime activities, and they check every item off the list. The festival, fireworks, the swimming pool, working part-time at a supermarket to get a frog suit for the club room. Here and there Kyon notices a feeling of deja vu, but ... http://proon.puppyrush.net/?p=1077 Summer vacation time, right after the trip to the ~Mystery Island~ if I remember correctly. Haruhi's made a list of summer activities to do, and they do them. All. Without incident. It's a fun ol' time going to the pool, catching cicadas, checking out the festival and watching fireworks. Sure ... http://proon.puppyrush.net/?p=1076 It took me a while to watch this because of all the confusion. What most people have probably figured out by now, unless they're like me and don't have anything to do with the anime community, is that they're re-airing Haruhi in chronological order. What that means is they're also ... http://proon.puppyrush.net/?p=1075 This series is pretty good. A few years back I watched it for a second time. But I don't think it's quite time for a third viewing yet. http://proon.puppyrush.net/?p=1074 This episode was about Yui needing to pass the math exam retake or she wouldn't be able to participate in club activities. Which would knock the club down to 3 members and force them to close. Aside from her constant distraction from studying by learning chords, there wasn't much metal ... http://proon.puppyrush.net/?p=1072
