Been a while since I did one of these, and as I said last time, I'm running out of candidates. Maybe a new influx of writers who like G5 will replenish things? I don't know that we'll see quite the huge fanfiction community as G4 inspired, but maybe.

Land o' Goshen! On time this week! And freshly back from some literature wins at the county fair! (Though the number of entries was way down from usual this year.)

By chance, this week will knock out all the rest of the Satoshi Kon things I've seen, but there are more I still intend to watch. Featured items are Only Yesterday and Paranoia Agent, after the break.

A day late again, but I had to spend yesterday evening getting some things ready to enter in the county fair. I'm going to pick up a bit of a theme in the also-rans, but featured items this week are megalobox and Noein, after the break.

Too much going on today, so I saved my write up yesterday. As a plus, it means I can publish it at a reasonable time. Who knew being proactive could prove beneficial? Featured items after the break are Hell Girl and Mushishi.

Finally (almost) recovered from my business trip that I stretched into a vacation, but I'm still suffering jet lag two days later. Oh well, the Labor Day holiday is coming up, so I'll sleep then. Featured items this time are Michiko & Hatchin and Moribito: Guardian of the Spirit, plus the usual shorter reviews of other things in this neighborhood of the alphabet, after the break.

My to-watch list keeps growing, but it's heavy with slice of life series at the moment. I usually like to watch 2 or 3 series of different genres at a time, but I might have to double up on the SoL just to even things out more.

Well, that business trip I had scheduled got cancelled, so I'm not just getting in late on a flight back from the west coast. The two featured series this week are on the obscure side, but I've got some better known stuff in the short reviews. Those featured series this week are Heat Guy J and Iroduku: The World in Colors.

In two weeks, I'll be getting into town late Tuesday and going away again Thursday, so... not sure whether I'll try to squeeze in a blog entry then on its usual schedule or just take the week off. Featured items this week are Durarara!! and Gunbuster, plus bonus plug for Green Legend Ran and the usual shorter reviews of other stuff, after the break.

Early in the day today, but I have way too much to catch up on tonight. I'm about to run into a section of the alphabet without many very good or excellent ratings, so I'll plow through as many as I can today just to take the pressure off next week. Featured series are Eureka Seven and Flying Witch, plus the usual additional quick reviews, after the break.
