Weekly Anime Rankings & Digest – October 24-30

by 5 Comments

Artist: kabkin (カブキン）

Tomorrow is Halloween. So, this weeks picture fits the mood with Makoto and Hibiki wearing the “My Dear Vampire” outfit from The iDOLM@STER 2. On a side note, the PlayStation 3 version of the game came out last Thursday in Japan. Hopefully I’ll get a copy to play around at years end.

Despite the lack of Ika Musume 2 and a snowstorm that hit the Northeast, which knocked out our power for over 24 hours, this week’s Anime had very exciting developments. Makoto finally gets some time in the spotlight along with Iskander’s/Rider’s epic attack against Berserker.  (Image Source)

Note: The Fate/zero Episode 5 post is delayed until tomorrow, unless the power comes back on tonight.

Weekly Anime Rankings & Digest – October 17-23

by 5 Comments


What is this? Are you doing weekly digests now?

Considering that I’m now taking part in the Anime Power Rankings, the answer is yes. A fellow Animeblogger named kevo runs these rankings to see how the currently airing shows are doing at a particular week. Given that I want to share my reasoning behind these votes and possibly add brief thoughts of episodes from older seasons that aren’t part of the rankings, I decided on doing it.  This is how it’s going to work:

  • I will concentrate on the shows that I have voted on the rankings first. This means the shows I’m up to date on are eligible for this. Sub availability plays a key role in this. Once I know enough Japanese, this will go a lot smoother as I can just jump right in and then re-watch the subs later while having a sufficient understanding of what I watched.
  • Second part will focus on unranked shows. These are shows that I’m currently behind in because of uncontrollable circumstances.
  • If there is any, the last part only focuses on episodes from shows of other seasons.  They won’t be part of any ranking whatsoever.
  • Lastly, this is not a replacement for episodic posts. It’s meant to recap what I watched during the week.

So, let’s get started, shall we? (Image Source used in this post)
