Re-arranging

So last night, I had this spastic two hours where I started about six different projects and actually finished only one of them. Fortunately, that one was the sorting and shelving of my animé collection. For some time now, I’ve had a ridiculous portion of my collection sitting just anywhere I left it, including stuff I hadn’t removed from the crate after my last trip to Dr Heinous’ place. So last night I grabbed a dustcloth, started yanking crap out of my bed’s headboard to make room, and stacking DVD cases in there. (What… bookcases? No way, they’re full of books!) Only halfway through, I decided, “You know, it’s stupid to have Nadesico all the way on the far side, and stuff I’ll never watch right to hand…” Half an hour later (it’s not that large of a collection), and I’ve got some semblance of a system.

And here we are, based solely on the likelihood that I might reach for it… the good stuff in on the right, near to hand.

Right side stuff: Crest/Banner of the Stars, Divergence Eve/Misaki Chronicles, Vandread, Full Metal Panic*; FMP:The Second Raid*, Shingu, Dual!, Vandread, Shakugan no Shana, Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya.

Middle (of the road): Lain, Stratos 4 (& OVA)*, Godannar*, Najica Blitz Tactics, DearS, Hanayuko Maid Team, Nadesico, GITS:SAC, Outlaw Star, Planetes.

Far Side (of the rewatch divide): Ah My Goddess!, Daphne in the Brilliant Blue, Plastic Little, Record of Lodoss War, Outlander*, Nuku Nuku Dash!*, Starship Operators, This Ugly Yet Beautiful World*, Maburaho*, Ikkitousen, Those Who Hunt Elves*, Project A-ko*; GITS, Coyote Ragtime Show, Urasei Yatsui (vol.1)*

Not Allowed to Ugly Up My Headboard: Sister Princess, Lost Universe, Chobits, Rune Soldier, Mars Daybreak.

Outside the System (stuck in my computer desk): Card Captor Sakura.

Items marked with an asterisk have a tenuous grip on their places of honor, and may find themselves left-shifted as space is needed.

  1. I pretty much agree with all of that.

    Yeah, my headboard is designed perfectly to accommodate the bell curve of quality. If I have any qualms, it’s that FMP/FMP:TSR should swap places with Nadesico.
