Readers’ Pick: Moyashimon Returns – Episode 3

snap1

It might be pointless to include these title screenshots since I can’t capture the translation along with it, but I’m going to keep doing it anyways because I feel like it.

In other news, I was thinking of participating in the blog carnival, but I probably won’t. I’m kind of a loner in the aniblogosphere, so it’s not like anyone cares for my opinions on aniblogging at all. I should probably comment around on other sites more (or at least tweet other bloggers more) instead of just lurking everywhere.

Readers’ Pick: Moyashimon Returns – Episode 2

Holy shit, I’m actually writing a new post? And it’s a Readers’ Pick one? Clearly, the end is nigh.

In all seriousness, I actually am sorry that I’m so behind on these. I didn’t want to make the same mistake I did with the Saki ones, but I did anyways. Damn I suck.

My plan is to release at least one of these a day starting today until I’m caught up. I was initially thinking one a day would be too much for my lazy ass, but seeing how little I have to say for this episode, it may be more easily accomplished than expected. In fact, seeing how short this post will probably be, I was planning to post another today. However, I may be writing up a post on a completely different topic instead. Who knows?

Readers’ Pick: Moyashimon Returns – Episode 1

I said I’d keep up on my posts for Readers’ Pick of the Season this time, and so I shall!

Also, I’ll still make a post when I catch up on Saki, I’ve just been distracted lately and am going through shows pretty slowly. I’m not bored of anime or anything, I just always think of something else to do right when I’m about to start. It’s quite annoying.

Readers’ Pick: Saki Achiga-hen – Episode of Side-A – Episode 3

No translation for the title shots anymore because MPC doesn’t like to include subs in them. I used to use VLC for my shots, but for some reason it gave me an error whenever I tried to take JPG pictures. What kind of player can take PNG shots but not JPG ones?

But a far more relevant point of confusion was this damn episode. What the hell, guys? You told me to get ready for practically Yu-Gi-Oh! levels of hacked mahjong playing, and that’s definitely not what was given. I never imagined the show winning the first Readers’ Pick was going to actually make me feel disappointment. I imagined it being more along the lines of either deep loathing or surprised enjoyment.

Readers’ Pick: Saki Achiga-hen – Episode of Side-A – Episode 2

Also known as the episode with an excessive lack of both mahjong and monocles. Not sure if I’m joking when I say the quality of this show in my eyes is dependent on how often that monocle character appears.

But anyways, another episode of Saki, and another day of wondering if I was lucky or cursed that this show was the winner. I can’t decide if I don’t like the show but am trying to like it, or if I like the show but feel like I shouldn’t. Or perhaps it’s some insane middle ground I can’t even begin to fathom. Saki may be a mindset of its own.

Readers’ Pick: Saki Achiga-hen – Episode of Side-A – Episode 1

In a sudden surge of votes that totally wasn’t a conspiracy, Saki barely pushed past Eureka Seven AO and Sengoku Collection to win the poll for this season.

So now I have to write about it for each episode.
