Fumiko’s Confession – An Independent Short

Was browsing SankakuComplex this morning, and came across a post on this short independent episode called Fumiko’s Confession (Fumiko no Kokuhaku), which is available to view on both NicoNico and Youtube. Enjoy!

In case there’s any confusion over the dialogue; at the beginning she asks the boy to go out with her… his response is “Sorry, but I want to focus on baseball.” At the end when she runs into him again… She basically asks for him to marry her (with promises of Miso Soup every morning xD), but again he …

I’m Still Alive!

Its been quite some time since I have posted, for many reasons, mostly having to do with school and money. If I had to summarize my past month in an image, it would probably be something like this:

I somehow managed to survive the Apocalypse though! (With only a slight cold), so I figured I’m make a blitzkrieg-post about  all the Otaku-ish things I’ve done in the past month while I still have a chance.
1. Fall Anime!
I’m Watching them! And to be completely honest… this feels like the worst season for …

Amime Memes: Po~Pi~Po!

To be completely honest… I have no idea what this is, but I believe it originated as a vocaloid song. The contents of the song consist of someone trying to force some Mysterious green vegetable drink on some innocent customer while doing a random dance and singing “Popipopipopipo.” Personally… I think their “dance” reminds me of some of those stupid exercise tapes from the 90’s o___o Which would probably match with the song since its some sort of health drink I believe. The Touhou one specifically makes it look like …

Kobato Impressions

Kobato, the newest animated series by Clamp is some sort a shojo/fantasy type story focused on a cute and naive young lady named Kobato that appears to be from another world.

Kimi Ni Todoke

Three Words: Best Fall Anime!
I have been looking for a good new romance comedy series; there hasn’t been any worth mentioning since Itazura na Kiss during fall LAST YEAR! This is definitly a great series to watch if you’re looking for something in that genre. The basic premise of the show is a bit odd; The main character Sawako, looks just like super scary Sadako from The Ring. Because of this her class mates think she is some sort of supernatural exsistence and call her Sadako; they are scared to …

Bakemonogatari Outsells K-ON!?

Bakemonogatari’s first week sales somehow managed to outsell moe-blob series K-On with 44,000 sales in total between DVD and Blu-ray.  This is quite a surprise since generally only mecha, harem moe, and pokemon ever seem to have decent dvd sales.
Bakemonogatari is a supernatural series  about a boy name Araragi who survives a vampire attack and somehow comes in contact with people (all girls of course) that have some serious supernatural issues and curses. Araragi is a good kid, so he tries to help them even if they are attempting to …

Anime Memes: Kurutto, Mawatte, Ikkaiten

After alot of thought I decided that the random Anime Meme I would cover this week would be more obscure the Caramelldansen. Kurutto, Mawatte, Ikkaiten is actually the 9th ending of the Anime Series Keroro Gunsou Which you can see below.

Because it is innately awesome there is a flood of fan made adaptions for other anime; at this point I run into this meme more than Caramelldansen even, though I rarely hear people talk about it. Not much of a complicated backstory on this one, so here are some more …

Kämpfer Impressions

Kampfer seems like a modern day less origenal Ranma 1/2. The story starts off with a blue haired boy who wakes up to realize he has boobs and he’s missing certain… vital man parts o___o A talking stuffed animal with its guts ripped out explains he is now a Kampfer warrior, and because all Kampfer must be women the transformation is necisarry. The boy is knocked out and wakes up in his male form and thinks it was all a bad dream. On his way to school he is attacked …
