Momo Kyun Sword – 01

By Stilts July 9, 2014

「憑依合体！モモキュンソード!!」 (Hyouigattai! Momokyunsoudo!!)
"Spiritual Union! Momo Kyun Sword!!"

Yup, this is a fanservice show. And as a fairy tale, it doesn't fare well.

By Stilts July 8, 2014

Goodbye, spring. Well done, everyone.

Before you get too wrapped up in the new summer shows, let's take a look back at spring and talk about the parts that were great (and/or not so great). Mainly great though. What can I say? We're an optimistic bunch!

Sabagebu! – 01

By Takaii July 7, 2014

「MISSION1 / 入部! / 入部と言ったな?あれは嘘だ / 本当はリアルなサバゲをやるつもりでした」
(MISSION1 / Nyuubu! / Nyuubu to Iittana? Are wa Usoda! Honto wa Riaruna Sabage wo Yarutsumorideshita)
"Mission 1 - Joined the Club! / Didn't your Join? I was Lying! / I Really Wanted to Play a Real Survival Game"

I wasn't quite sure what I was getting into when I hit play for Sabagebu!, but all I know is that I really, really liked it and want more.

By Stilts July 7, 2014

「その恋は、少女漫画化されてゆく。」 (Sono Koi wa, Shoujo Mangaka Sarete Yuku.)
"This Love... Is Being Turned Into a Shojo Manga"

Solid romcom antics with a comic bent. If you like your romance with a heavy helping of laughter and laid-back pacing, know that this Dogakobo anime is going well so far.
