Monday Otakuisms

Just another 4chan image. Anyone know who she is, as she looks badass?
Because I don’t want to copy Mathew’s title. Anyway some things to talk about today are:
- Shingo reports to me that Genshiken is indeed getting, if not a second season, then more episodes created to be sold as extra’s on the Kuji-Un DVD’s. Someone in Japan must be laughin right now ” Yes let’s make an anime that know no one really wants and give them what they do want as extra’s on overpriced DVD’s “. Sad thing is Otaku will eat this up anyways. Still it will be interesting to see how far they get with just three episodes to make.

Thanks go to TJ-han for the awesome June pic (I think that’s her name).
- Coyote Ragtime Show ends with a massive release by GG. A short time later CRS is licensed and all subs are taken down. This makes a certain blogger ie. me insanely angry as he only mananged to download 10 and 11 before missing the final episode. However after hearing from other bloggers that the ending was made of massive fail, he has decided to let it go and forget that CRS ever existed. The only anime ufotable has ever made is Futakoi Alternative.
- Anime Nano podcast 10 was released and will be listened to later.

Akagi’s badass. That’s all one needs to know about Mahjong.
- In personal anime news I am still eagerly awaiting the final episodes of H&C, Muteki Kanban Musume, and the end of Ouran Host Club. It’s weird how I only really followed a few series through the summer (Honey & Clover II, Ouran, MKM, NHK, CRS) along with sporadic watching of Tsuyokiss and desperately waiting for more ARIA episodes. The best things I watched weren’t even from the summer or spring seasons ie. Demonbane, Akagi, and Diebuster (another series I’m waiting for the final episode of). However I see myself watching many series in the fall, with a much more varied offering than the rather pathetic summer season. On a sidenote even though I don’t blog episodes I still have a backlog of NHK and other stuff. Must be because I’m naturally lazy. Also downloaded the Densha Otoko special which I’ll watch later. For those who missed it Moetron has both the raw and SRT file here. Sadly I probably won’t be able to watch it as I have a paper to write. Woe is the student’s life.
- Another sidenote: the Demobane ED song fucking RAWKS!
Personally, I thought the CRS ending was great, even though it wasn’t as good as episodes 10 and 11. The ending just doesn’t have complete closure. It’s more like begging for a sequel, and in my opinion it deserves one. Also, June is the Gothic crossdresser. The one in the picture is my favourite, March ^^;

You can’t tell any of them apart really. I guess I’ll look into CRS in a couple of years when it’s on DVD and see if my impressions change.
