It seems that Bones is sticking to the manga with the second episode of Fullmetal Alchemist, and I've got to hand it to them for doing a nice job of it. The animation's consistency, the excellent way they portrayed an scarred Edward after his failed human ... http://grimoire.today.com/2009/04/14/fullmetal-alchemist-brotherhood-episode-2-the-past-to-the-present/ Cute~~~ So we finally embark on our second episode of K-On and I've to one conclusion: Yui is undoubtably the most air headed girl I've ever encountered. In a way it's cute, but it's kind of irking me a little bit too.  Apart from that I've grown quite fond of ... http://grimoire.today.com/2009/04/13/k-on-episode-2-rich-girls-sure-come-in-handy/ It was only today that I realized that my backlog had grown to a point where I couldn't possibly watch everything and do a full analysis for each everyday. Not enough time to watch anime, too many things to do at home, and some major assignments coming up say much ... http://grimoire.today.com/2009/04/12/first-impressions-spring-line-up-everything-else/ Taking on three at a time. So many series to watch, so little time to follow them all. http://grimoire.today.com/2009/04/11/first-impressions-asura-cryin-basquash-shangri-la/ The Humanity! This episode spends a lot more time on the historical aspects of Italy's history rather than diving into post World War 2 as it might have seemed to be from previous episodes. It is a welcome change though, away from the tedium that is the Axis and Allies, ... http://grimoire.today.com/2009/04/09/hetalia-episode-11-the-fate-of-the-holy-roman-empire-is-within-your-hands-italy/ Our heroine. Having played a few hours of the original PC game by Aquaplus, I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by the animation quality and the story progression of this episode. It wasn't exactly the most original of games, with particularly long-winded speeches and some annoying character dialogue ... http://grimoire.today.com/2009/04/08/first-impressions-tears-to-tiara-episode-1/ That's got to hurt. Well, I didn't really that many expectations in the first place when I decided to watch Pandora Hearts. It's good to see those expectations were right. While the trailer did grab my attention initially, I didn't really think that it looked as good as it could ... http://grimoire.today.com/2009/04/07/first-impressions-pandora-hearts-episode-1/ How dare you forget about me! It has been a while since I've last seen the original Full Metal Alchemist series, and just watching this episode brings me back. A lot of familiar faces make their appearances and we're thrown straight into the action even before we hit the second ... http://grimoire.today.com/2009/04/06/first-impressions-full-metal-alchemist-brotherhood-episode-1/ Huh...I forgot something... I know I'm quite behind with a number of series and with the new season already heating up, I'm finding little time to catch up with the rest. I'm not quite sure yet if I'm cutting Mariaholic and The Girl Who Leapt Through Space short, but it seems ... http://grimoire.today.com/2009/04/05/the-melancholy-of-suzumiya-haruhi-chan-episodes-8-10-beans-maids-and-escapes/ Time to wake up and smell the flowers. My first thoughts were 'There sure are a lot of breasts and nipples in this...'. And after watching through it, I can say that this series surely thrives on this overexposure of cleavage. Nothing really catches the eyes more than an over ... http://grimoire.today.com/2009/04/04/first-impressions-queens-blade-episode-1/
