I have to say, Seitokai Yakuindomo is probably the mildly enjoyable series in the 2010 summer season since it has funny jokes with Episode 5 more so than Episode 6. Yet, our completely sane Takatoshi keeps getting these galage magazines because everyone thinks that all men are interested in those kind of things. It doesn’t surprise me either because like Takatoshi, I am not so interested in ecchi or rather the erotic works out there since it’s not worth polluting your mind with junk (like porn and no offense to people who like these kinds of content).

Kanon – Shiori’s Arc – The Drama of the Two Sisters
Back in 2009, I wrote an informal post about Shiori’s Arc after I had finished it. I was disappointed that I haven’t gone deep enough in analyzing and adding my thoughts about her arc, so I decided to go through and redo the review as I attended. No, I’m not going to cover what was different in the Anime adaptation, but analyze the story and give my own thoughts along with it.

Anime Blog Reading and Improving Anime Blogs
Anime Blogging may have a fun aspect given that you are sharing your thoughts to the world, but in reality it takes a lot of time and dedication. The blogosphere is so vast that you might find thousands of Anime Blogs out there to read. However, it’s the blogs that stands out the most get the most attention.
You may ask, why are you writing an editorial about reading other people’s Anime blogs in the blogosphere? You asked a good question. I’m writing about it because I read a blog post on it. Additionally, I had an idea that reading other people’s blogs gives a blogger an idea on how to improve their own blogs. After all, everyone wants to be successful Anime bloggers and get as many readers out there as possible.

Amagami SS – Episode 10 (Sae’s Arc Part 2) – Junchi Becomes a Player
Do you sense that Junchi is being more perverted than the previous arcs? The other episodes simply cannot compare to the perverseness of this episode. What perverted things Junchi does to Sae? You will see for yourself.

Opinion: K-ON, It’s more about Good Friendships than Girls doing Cute Things.
Friendship is one of the most desirable aspects of life since it allows us to interact with people that share the same interests and have a fun time. Without friendship, people would not be enjoying life and be setting in a corner with a feeling of boredom. In addition, having many friends can increase the chances of getting a job depending on how good your friends are.
K-ON is probably one of those shows that most people wouldn’t know about the friendship theme because of its reputation of being a girls doing cute things kind of show. If you look deeper in the activities and the songs they do, you realize that they are enjoying themselves because of their strong relationship between them. That feeling of friendship is what brought some of the nostalgia explained more in the last editorial when I looked back in my high school years.

K-ON!! Second Season – Episode 21 – Yearbook Pictures!
As the four girls’ high school year come to an end for good, they must overcome the second to last thing before graduation… Taking yearbook pictures! I remembered this time 2-3 years ago when I had to take senior portraits and it turned out to be pretty good. Yui on the other hand… Thats another story.

Kaichou wa Maid-sama – Episode 20 – Yukimura and his Imouto
Given that Yukimura lost the Footman Competition because of his lack of manliness, now his younger sister is now doubting his manliness with her preference for Usui as her Prince. This sounds so wrong in many levels. This date reminded me of Mei going out on a date with Tomoya to piss off her older brother. The only difference is that Usui didn’t go overboard by having Ruri call him “onii-chan.” If they did, Misaki would be angry at him for life for being a lolicon and his perversion.

Fall 2010 Plans – Updated
If you don’t believe it, the whole summer flown by very quickly. During that the whole time, I have watched and written a lot about Anime. The sad thing is that summer break isn’t here forever and I have to go back to college for another semester for learning. As Summer ends, it’s another season of new anime.
Fall 2010 Season unlike Winter, Spring and Summer seasons is very lackluster. The lack of comedy/drama/slice of life Anime pretty much turned me off for the season. Then again, I may be wrong if I manage to pick something up this season as it goes on. Therefore, there is always the currently airing shows from Spring/Summer to finish and the backlog.
- Kaichou wa Maid-sama! (Backlogged, 4 episodes)
- K-ON!! (2 Episodes Left, ends late September)
- Seitokai Yakuindomo (Backlogged, 6 Episodes behind)
- Amagami SS (Ongoing)
- Ookami-san to Shichinin no Nakama-tachi (Started)
Fall 2010 Season
- Yosuga no Sora
- MM!
- Ore No Imouto Ga Konna Ni Kawaii Wake Ga Nai
Compared to last fall season, I was able to pick up two Anime titles (Kobato and Seitokai no Ichizon) to cover and they turn out to be good. This season, its filled with hot blooded shouen anime that I have no interest in or rather make me yawn real loud. Anyway, if you really want to see a list of Fall 2010 anime, head over to The Cart Driver or on Melative (incomplete at the moment).
Now for some site and personal stuff:
- I will be working on a new banner for the Fall season with the remaining Summer Vacation I have left. I expect to have this up in two days. No need to worry, it’s going to look great. (Update: New Banner is now up!)
- The fall semester has a moderate workload, so I will be able to update the blog at least 5 times a week. For those who want to know when I am free, the schedule can be viewed here.
- For those who wish to write a Guest Editorial for Fall 2010 season, the criteria is listed here.
This is pretty much what I have to say on the Fall 2010 season and plans… I wish everyone will do well in school or the Fall Semester (if you are still in college) and hopefully enjoy the fall season.

Amagami SS – Episode 9 (Sae’s Arc Part 1) – The Timid Freshman
It’s a new arc and a new girl. That means that Junchi is companionless, for now…until he ran into Nakata Sae during the summer of course! She just transferred from another school and is in Miya’s freshman class. She is really cute, except that she is super timid as you see later.
