No matter how much effort Ohana puts into her work, there is one thing about her that astonishes me. She is so independent that she refuses to cooperate with others, which causes silly mistakes.
…

Episode 2 of Nichijou is more of the same with the addition of very familiar gaming consoles shown in some of the scenes.
…
Taste Test Part I – A Channel
A Channel is yet another “girls doing cute things” show, but just with different girls and a loli that makes things rather interesting.
…
Taste Test Part I – Ore-tachi ni Tsubasa wa Nai
With a show like Ore-tachi ni Tsubasa wa Nai that is based off a Visual Novel by Navel, you can foresee what will happen in this episode. If you guess gratuitous amounts of panty shots and fanservice, then you are correct!

Hourou Musuko – Episode 10+11 (Better Half) – Brief Thoughts

Hourou Musuko – Innocence, Acceptance and Betrayal… (Editorial)
Preface: Hourou Musuko besides Madoka Magica has been one of few shows out of the winter season, which are considered very good. The reason why I have not blogged much about this show since the content in the episodes is hard to explain in episodic posts. So, I thought it would be best to share my thoughts on the events that were important in editorial form.
In the most recent episodes of Hourou Musuko, the story focuses more on the issues Nitori faces in his life that wants to be a girl. Since he is delicate, anything that happens to him will impact him emotionally. This happens when Dori urges him to come out of the closet that causes the whole student body to become shocked. In addition, the play and Anna plays an important role of adding self-confidence for Nitori’s transgenderism.
