Finished Infinite Stratos. Its not as bad as what most people think. Story is of course not that great, but it depends on what you see the series as. I see it as a enjoyable "watch this over breakfast" kind of anime, along the lines of School Rumble. If you compare it with your average robot anime (Macross etc.) obviously its junk, but if you compare it with your average harem story (can't think of a good example here) its slightly above average imo.

Watching Hanasaku Iroha right now. Not really my cup of tea, but I'll watch this while drinking a cup of tea (well actually they come in bottles now over here lol, "cold" green tea and not "iced tea", although we do have tea from Taiwan...)

I can browse my entire library from the remote on my PS3. No need to build a playlist.

![]() Sorry for the mini-rant, it's just very annoying. Some very good "original" anime I have watched recently: Time of Eve, Pale Cocoon, Kurozuka, Sword of the Stranger (movie), Nyan Koi (hilarious!), Angel Beats, and several others I can't remember currently because I'm at work. I've been watching anime for quite some time, though, so I have a lot of stuff I've seen. I haven't updated it in a LONG time but here's myanimelist: http://myanimelist.net/animelist/Thassodar

Haven't watched Love Hina yet, Negima is on my list though. I would also like to clarify that I don't particularly enjoy the harem genre, just that there are plenty of characters that I find funny and enjoyable to watch are mostly found in the harem genre.

You should take a look at love hina then, it has a fantastic row of characters with a variety of personalities...

I liked Ai Yori Aoshi (think it might be called Bluer Than Indigo in the US) way better than Love Hina.

Leaving the harem behind, lets move on to better things...
Just watched the last part of the "Young Animator Training Project" Super Veggie Torracman, i have to say it was a very nice story, the animation was nice too, this kind of stuff should work well with kids...

Mrs. just came back birthday shopping for my daughter with a surprise for me. She bought me the Evangelion 2.22 BD.
Speaking of anime on BD: This is exactly why I will stick with my DVD release of FLCL: http://www.amazon.com/FLCL-Complete-...2137888&sr=8-9 Look at the user submitted screenshots and their notes. It actually looks worse than the dvds in some spots and comes with no extras. Just not acceptable in this day and age. People are so desperate to have anime on BD tho, that people will still buy garbage releases like this. They could've at least fine tuned the upscale (to be fair, it wasn't done in house. Wish it was tho, as Funi has finally perfected their upscale process) and gave us some extras of some sort. Strangly, the iTunes upscales actually use a different source than the BD's and look better, but obviously lack on the audio and compatibility aspects. Hmmm, I wonder if anybody has de-DRMed the iTunes version? I could easily a hybrid version of the BD soundtrack and subtitles, with the iTunes video if it was available.

I am so disappointed in Merry's ending, they build up everything but decided to throw everything in the bin last ep. Its so stupid that its painful to watch. The first half of the series was pretty good then they just totally stopped trying.

Sounds like the ending to Welcome to the N.H.K. Soooooo disappointing.
