Cue the Disappointment

Posted on July 4, 2008 by Ubu Roi

In contrast to last season, which had one really good fanservice show (Kamen no Maid-Guy), two mediocre ones (To-Love Ru, Kanokon), and one with ups and downs (Penguin Musume), it looks like this one’s got three. Ikkitousen is an acquired … Continue reading →

Code Geas R2 #12, the Cliffhanger

Posted on June 30, 2008 by Ubu Roi

Oh. My. God. There hasn’t been a cliffhanger like that in a while. This is going to be messy. Very very messy, I think. Which way is she going to go? And what is the not-dead Cornelia going to do? … Continue reading →

20 Faces, One Disappointment

Posted on April 23, 2008 by Ubu Roi
