requisite quick update

Posted by hatemachine

Clannad After Story ep. 25: Disappointing, especially in light of how well done the Tomoyo special was, and Kagami  Hiiragi Kyou is one of my favorite characters from Clannad.

Eden of the East: Easily the best show from the spring season.  Kenji Kamiyama is an excellent director, and I hope the movies are as enjoyable as the series was.

FMA Brotherhood (ep. 1-14): Even though it sticks closer to the manga, I can’t help but feel the first anime series has a more compelling storyline.

Dragon Ball Kai (ep. 1-14): Pacing is all over the place. Sometimes there are way too many edits and other times there aren’t enough. Very uneven, but boy this is a better show without the filler.

One Piece (up to ep. 330): Gets better with every arc.

The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya season 2 (ep. 1-4): Do we really need four episodes centered on the Endless Eight? Is this KyoAni trolling us? Is Kyon going to just snap and smack the shit out of Haruhi?

Canaan (ep. 1): I’m a sucker for Type-Moon.  This one starts off pretty great.  Haven’t seen gunfights this good since Bebop.
