Papa Iukoto ep 5 last night, the series is still plodding along in a fairly standard way.

Bamboo Blade ep 3 this afternoon, enjoyed the episode - things aren't quite as straightforward as I'd presumed!
 
I watched Strike Witches episode 1 on Netflix. Kinda...alright I guess. I'm not really feeling enthused to watch anymore, but I suppose I'll watch a few more if I get taken over by completion fever.
 
Genesis Climber Mospeada - Long Live Alive

A fan special that acts as a kind of extra prologue to the TV series, and makes me want to watch it again.
 
Black Rock Shooter Episode 1
It didn't actively hurt my anus to watch so i guess that's an acheivment. The CG they are using isn't too bad either. If only there was less school drama and more actual fighting though. They should've just used the games plot so it would be BRS fighting bad guy after bad guy in a post-apocalyptic wasteland like fist of the north star.

Bubblegum Crisis Episode 1
Twas actually decent with cool looking fights and a servicable plot with nice music. i'm glad i've got 2 more to go.
 
Toradora 14-19
Okay, I absolutely loved this episodes. Taiga fighting the student council president was pretty darn epic. I'd say that was my highlight of this batch, until episode 19...

Will watch the rest when I get back from walking teh doggy.

EDIT:
Toradora 20-25

There was a Yu-Gi-Oh! reference in one of the earlier episodes in this set (can't remember which; it was before 19 though). I wonder if NIS America should have translated some of the terms to fit the English dub of the show (like changing "Reverse Card" to "Face Down Card").

I couldn't help but feel like I wanted to cry at the end of 20, as I was reminded of how things became really awkward between me and a close friend after I told her how I felt about her...if only I had someone like Taiga there for me to tell not to avoid her...I haven't spoken to her since and that was 2 years ago...

I also noticed that in some scenes in episode 23, a part of the arms of Ami's glasses would disappear and reappear xD

Episodes 24 and 25 though? Really...wow. So damn powerful. For a moment, I actually thought it would have ended with Taiga going away and never returning. I would have cried my eyes out if that happened.

Toradora! really is the best of its genre that I've seen so far.

Nisemonogatari e.5 - I may have let out a strange, strangled sound from somewhere deep in my throat around the 17:32 mark.

I think you may need to rethink your seating arrangements when viewing other, less highly achieving, shows.
 
Planetes disc 4 finally arrived.

God I really do hate Tanabe again. She's so annoying and petty-minded and I still hate the Hachimaki/Tanabe crap, besides that it's still a good show.

I still thought it was pretty crap though.

EDIT:
Inu x Boku SS 4. Okay, I really like this show, especially Zange xD.

Shakugan no Shana III -FINAL- 18. The 3 remaining Four Gods of the Earth really stole the show in this episode. Casually strolling into the battle field, killing dozens of denizens as if they were nothing.
