My Top Anime for 2010

2010 will be over in a few days, so it’s time for that year-end exercise: the year-end rankings of the shows that I watched. I’m quite early from my usual schedule. Whew! Now what else to do on New Year’s Eve?

[Lists 2010] All-time Faves and Rankings: Yuri and Shoujo Ai

This is what I have been referring to in my New Year post. I will rank the shows I’ve watched for each genre/grouping. I am not yet sure about the complete list of genres/groupings that I will tackle, because I doubt if there is enough material for most of them. But the major ones are slice of life, comedy, shounen, and of course, mecha. But today I will tackle yuri/shoujo-ai. (Warning: There might be some spoilers, but just a few.)

My Top Anime for 2009

I said I would not do this list. However, I made an about-face (for reasons I cannot say). Unlike last year, my room is not such a mess today. The weather’s still fine though.

Another thing for this year, I’ll be including shows that I haven’t finished yet but where I’m halfway through (or are ongoing shows). The shows are Aoi Bungaku, Bakemonogatari, Cross Game, Kimi ni Todoke, Sasameki Koto. I cannot include Kara no Kyoukai because I’m only into ep 2 and the show is still an unknown for me. Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood doesn’t count also because I stopped watching and am saving everything for a later date. Fairy Tail is probably gonna go on forever, and I’m still undecided on it overall.

Anime Progress Report: Blues and Strawberries Edition

Yep, finally got the urge write a progress report again.

And so it’s time for the 2009 summer anime…

And as usual, doesn’t look like there’s a lot of promising shows. I’m checking out only the following shows: Aoi Hana – Hmm, shoujo-ai?  But it’s directed by Kenichi Kasai, and I enjoyed even KimiKiss.  So will watch. Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 – Bones.  Gave us Bounen no Xamdou.  Ouran.  Etc.  Will watch. Yoku Wakaru Gendai [...]
