Weekly Round-Up: September 22nd

Another week, another round-up, another persistent feeling that I really am following more series than the handful I seem to be covering. This week seems to be an oddly unbalanced one, featuring a select handful of gems amongst a desert of tiresome, forgettable dross- some of it from series I highly praised mere months or [...]

Weekly Round-Up: September 15th

I meant to watch the Keroro Gunso movie in time for this round-up, I really did, but unfortunately I have this mental block about watching anything longer than about 35 minutes. Yes, I could easily watch several 25 minute episodes back-to-back, and yes, I could tackle a longer feature in several sittings, but such logic [...]

Weekly Round-Up: September 8th

Rena outlines the dangers of becoming an anime fan. Although I predicted a busy upcoming week in my last round-up, it turned out that I was completely wrong to do so, with this week offering even slimmer pickings than the last. Not that I’m particularly complaining- although I sense that there are series I’m missing, [...]

Weekly Round-Up: September 1st

Marie Antoinette explains the principles of advanced disguise. If not exactly sparse, this week sees a few familiar names absent from the roster (but undoubtedly waiting for the flood of releases that I sense will occur next week). In the meantime, I’ve finally made good on my promise to catch up on a few more [...]

Weekly Round-Up: August 25th

Keroro is not pleased with the state of the summer season. After the sparseness of last week, everything seems to have returned in full force in readiness for the Round-Up’s one month anniversary. In light of all the drops of previous weeks, I’ve picked up a number of new series on the anime front, although [...]

Weekly Round-Up: August 18th

This week on Aria: citizens warned to watch out for giant cat. It’s been a comparatively slow week, particularly for the rather sparse manga section, which blows my tentative plan for making the round-up twice weekly out of the water for now. In the meantime, I’ve cobbled together a pathetic excuse for a poll which [...]

Weekly Round-Up: August 11th

To celebrate the fortnight anniversary of the Weekly Round-Up (or rather, because I just thought them up), this week sees two new additions to the format- 1. Series in red are on Zero Tolerance, which basically means that they have 1-2 more episodes to impress before being dropped entirely. 2. Whenever a series introduces a [...]

Weekly Round-Up: August 4th

Amazingly, the round-up survives to celebrate its one week anniversary; this week, I’ll be trying something akin to organisation by placing the various titles in alphabetical order as opposed to “whatever order I watched them in”. I’ll also be trialling a new ‘caught up with…’ section for series that, quite unsurprisingly, I have recently caught [...]

Weekly Round-Up: July 28th

Today marks the start of a new blog section that I intend to make into a weekly feature for as long I can keep it up. Contained within are short reviews of the ongoing anime and manga series that I’ve watched and read over the course of the week (by ongoing I mean recently subbed/translated [...]
