Nitro On!

???!

I had forgotten how much the second season of You’re Under Arrest dragged near the end. Why is it every time the show needed to cook up some drama, it always involved ripping Miyuki and Natsumi apart? And why was Natsumi always the one recruited for bigger and better things? Miyuki was clearly the brains of the operation.

(For the record, I’ll take Natsumi over Miyuki… but Saori wins in the end)

Oh well. Time now to face a truly frightening backlog.

Oh, and since it’s been finalized, I should mention that Hop Step Jump! is now a member of the 9rules Network.

Woo.

    YUA’s second season was abysmal. I don’t even remember what happened in those 26 episodes.

    I agree. In fact, YUA Season One was the reason I got hooked to anime. If it wasn’t for me coincidentally catching the show while channel surfing one fine bored say, I wouldn’t be wast.. err, spending my time watching girls attracted to PUSSY’s (ref:4chan /a/ Bounty List) and debating on the highs and lows of megane zokusei.

    Tis’ too bad that the 2nd season was abysmal, by all standards.

    The good news is that you’re in for at least one outstanding ep of Haruhi, and a few surprisingly good entries from the Strawberry Panic run, judging by that screenshot. Have fun!

    Ha ha I’m reading the summary for “You’re Under Arrest” on the anime news network. Speaking of networks welcome to the 9rules network. It was so embarrassing today when I downloaded the media package and the files were all in PSD. Ack! I think it’s because they’re not used to working with people who’re not involved with web design.

    Is that a Higurashi wallpaper?

    Ha, you think THAT’s a frightening backlog?

    At current count, I theoretically have the following:

    Ergo Proxy 11-13
    Glass no Kantai 5-10
    Higurashi 5-10
    Jyu-Oh-Sei 5-9
    Nana 6-10
    Nishi no Yoki Majo 7-9
    Ouran 7-10
    Saiunkoku Monogatari 3-10
    Simoun 3-10
    The Third 5-7
    xxxHolic 5-10
    Zegapain 5-10

    *weeps*

    Congratulations on the 9rules listing! I can’t seem to find your blog in there somewhere. (Searching through that site is -incredibly- tedious. They really should implement even some basic search functions - no one is going to be finding -anything- with their category listing from hell.)

    It’ll probably be a few days yet before it’s actually listed. I just “signed” the member agreement yesterday. Be on the look out for an anime community.

    Congrats on your listing! I agree with StarCreator, though, as I couldn’t find Hung’s or your listing with the horrible category system that 9rules uses.

    Yeah the 9rules organization can be a bit weird to get used to but it’s actually a pretty good way to get information. I believe that they’re getting ready to roll out a new set of community features so hopefully it’ll be a little bit easier on the readers.

    yay 9rules. maybe yay that non-anime people have a better way to look up anime blogs, and get aquainted about the stuff better. boo on being a relevance whore.

    I think it was episode nine of Strawberry Panic specifically that had some major reptilian moments…

    Kamisama Kazoku has a good start to it. It could be a pretty servicable romance series before all’s said and done. I remain optimistic for the time being.

    Okay, I hate to be a n00b and all, but where the heck can I find Strawberry Panic? I’ve hunted thru animesuki and can’t find the listing to save my life…

  14. 14 Jeff Lawson

    Wonderduck, it’s a Media Factory show, so it won’t be listed on Animesuki (explanation here). You can find it on Tokyo Toshokan, however.

    Thanks again, Jeff!

    My backlog is the 400 gig folder on my file server.
