Hiyokoi OVA - My only major gripe with this is one freaking episode!! Yep extreme lack of devolpment and a expected rushed plot should make this 24 minute episode at least average.

However Production I.G does a excellent job with one episode given, both Hiyori and Yuushin are great main leads and there conversations are humorous at best.

Fans of Toradora and Kimi Ni Todoke should at least give this Shoujo a go and I shall wish for a proper series not long in the future.

Madoka Magica episode 5 - Character devolpment; plus more infomation about wishes and contracts seem to be explained more and I have a bad feeling when Sayaka says I have no regrets

The introduction of Kyouko, a very entertaining fight in the alley way and a blasted cliffhanger. The series is still fantastic and one of the best.

Fractale episode 4 - As I watched the second half of this, memories of the motorbike scene from "The Great Escape" popped into my head.

At the shocking scene from the last episode, Fractale seems to go back to its lighthearted self again, a bit like how Madoka Magica has played down its tragic scene.

Well, it's been a few months, but I watched a few more episodes of Katekyo Hitman Reborn! today (using my own post history as a reference to where I got to last...) with episodes 110-113. I've said before, but I'll say it again, the series is okay, but the slow pace is hard to swallow, especially since the action scenes aren't living up to the hype (these box weapons are rather dull). Still, I vowed to get to the end, and get to the end I shall... eventually.
 
Madoka Magica just gets better as it goes on, never really been into Magical Girl shows too much but this is -really- good. Fractale reminds me a lot of Dark Chronicle this past episode, not really sure why but it's still entertaining, the main character has no real clue what he's doing which is a bit irritating but I'll forget about it for now. Still watching Wandering Son too, it's really not that interesting, it's not poorly written or unrealistic it's just... boring, then again I never did slice of life shows.
 
Star Driver ep 18 - songs are so good in this series.

Mitsudomoe s2 ep 5 - Hasn't missed a beat in the carry over from the first season, just a shame this season is so short.

Rio ep 5 - lulz, this is actually more entertaining than it should be.
 
Monster Rancher eps. 19 and 20. Re-living my childhood and I quite like this anime...

Almost finished Noein and I am re-watching Kino's Journey which is just awesome.
 
FINALLY got vol 2 of Hell Girl from Lovefilm after it being "short wait" for six months and then realised that I just don't give a **** about it and dropped it from my list.

It's perfectly acceptable but it's all so formulaic and I don't really care if character development comes into it later because I find the characters all extremely dull.

But it's not like I can take any kind of moral high ground since I'm still pushing on with Iron Man despite the fact that hasn't entertained me since ... well any of it.

But it's Iron Man so I carry on to the bitter end...

Madoka ep 6, I now don't want to go to bed. It somehow managed to continue getting even darker. Nightmare fuel now aproaching dangerous levels.

It was spooky wasn't it, Does this mean mami's still alive then? also, does this mean that Homaru is actually Madoka from the future? I'm sure she is now.

Tell you what i was half expecting something like this but i never expected the fact that if the Soul Gem is 100meters away then the Mahou Shoujo would be lifeless. Sayaka certainly didnt remember what happened there in fact

Madoka Magica episode 6 - Ever since Kyouko appearence in episode 4; with her mean yet adultish attitude, I started to think that the soul gem was some kind of anti-aging item. Since we now know that the gem is basically the soul of the Magic girl, some of my questions were answered.

So i'm just thinking, if the magical girls soul gem isn't purified then does that turn them into a witch (even monster)?

I loved it when they first say Sayaka's unconscious then dead, again really well executed!

Anyway I think the series will keep me guessing to the end, I think i'll have to re-watch the series from here to see if I can think anymore theories. I think i'm going to say this every week now: I can't wait for the next episode.

Twelve Kingdoms Episodes 14 - 16

Canaan Episodes 3 - 6

Jewel Hunter Lime Bem Episodes 1 - 3 Seemed like an incomplete anime - a girl & boy from the magical world try to recover some gems that were dropped in the human world - after recovering 3 gems the show ends yet more than 3 gems were dropped in the first place.

FINALLY

So i made a start on Baccano! At long last, after however long it has been, and i've got the first 3 episodes out of the way. First episode obviously was more of an introduction to everyone and the first half of it was a little confusing, but now it's fully underway, i'm thoroughly enjoying it. Was able to keep myself from watching more than 3 episodes, since i want this to last and not be finished within a day(which it would be otherwise). I can see why some people like Isaac as well. I shall keep ye all posted as i go.
 
Monster Rancher Eps. 21 – 24.
Finding delight in such a simple anime is a pleasure. Brings back childhood memories… Hell, I might even get the soundtrack.

Kino’s Journey Ep. 3.
This anime is a classic in my opinion. I can see myself re-watching more than once a year unlike a lot of other anime.
