Random Musings – Being Swamped And Sick Sucks

48 Comments

The Spring Preview is 95% done, but I’m about to fall over because of a cold and have a meeting in the morning, so it won’t be until tomorrow that I finish it. It has taken me a lot longer than usual because there are a lot more series than usual (30 at current count, not including kiddie shows), and I’ve probably spent 20-25 hours researching everything. Unfortunately, writing it and getting myself ready for the new season (plus all the normal school work and work work I have to do) means that I won’t have time to blog the new KimiNozo DVD, the Darker than BLACK DVD episode, or the School Days Kokoro-chan DVD. Regardless, I guarantee that the Spring Preview will be posted tomorrow, and here’s a sample to tide you over until then.

The Spring 2008 Preview is up now, so I’ve removed the sample.

    Here I was thinking there’d only be one ridiculous anime to watch this season(Soul Eater), but it’s a good thing I was wrong! I hope this year we’ll see stuff thats just as awesome as last year. Though, I highly doubt anything will beat Gurran-Lagann in the ridiculous/awesome factor that I’m hoping for.

    I think I’ll pass on Kamen no Maid Guy. I hope Kyouran Kazoku Nikki will be good though, it sounds like it could be fun.

    Omg Omni, I don’t wonder that your blog has become so famous seeing the time and effort you spend on this site. Just take care of your health. Burn out syndrom comes faster than you think. So take it EASY. Even my brother knows that, and he works as doctor sometimes over 17 hours a day. What happened to those people helping you with your blog btw? Maybe you should start another recruitment action. I think there’ll definitely be some people interested.

    also we can safely assume that the loli is the child of incarnation of destruction. who else is the more suited to bring about the end of humanity than a cat eared loli. lol

    Aww, sorry to hear about the cold. Hope you can recover really soon. Don’t overwork yourself, otherwise the fatigue may cause the immune system to shutdown, which can lead to more serious illnesses.

    Kyouran Kazoku Nikki sounds funny but the story is WeeIrrd. Hope you’ll be better soon to blog more of the spring preview 😀

  37. Steven Den Beste

    I’ve been saying for a while that I have an intuition that Kyouran Kazoku Nikki is going to be the breakout hit of this season.

    Can’t believe I forgot to say this but congrats for reaching over 20,000,000 page views. This site is the first “anime” site I’ve ever visited and my favorite. I hope that your blog will live on for many years to come congrats Omni and I hope you feel better.

    Hmm? I thought Omni had hired helpers to help him blog some series? (And where’s Jaalin when you need him? lol ) Anyway, take your time and get some well deserved rest, mate, your selfless contribution will be appreciated, always.

    Im intrested in the following shows, which I end up really watching depends on the first few eps:
    Amatsuki, Blassreiter, Code Geass 2, Nabari no Ou, Vampire Knight, RD Sennou Chousashitsu, Crystal Blaze and Junjou Romantica (as a gay person, its kinda a must ;))

    BTW, why are most of the animes aired at night? Dont you japanese people sleep at night? 😛
