Ways to fly

Bakemonogatari 8! Ah ha, new opening for the end of this arc. *spoilers* Getting swung around by one's intestines is a new visual that I haven't seen in anime. Got to hand it to the animators for making the fight more stylish than graphic. I am enjoying the twisted sense of humor; sooo twisted. We see a little bit of Shinobu's role in this episode.

Zan Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei 7! The intros seem to be time wasters, but this episode was pretty good in a normal way. They address deals that aren't real, converse with General Frost and deal with surprises. The omake seiyuu drawings at the end are cute.

Freeze-dried ice cream

Futatsu no Spica 3-7! the end. This was a very well-cast drama, and it was pretty nice that the JAXA supported the show. The drama aspects; sad past, love triangle, illness; were played down in the beginning, so the central enthusiasm for space education stayed in place, but with only 7 episodes, I was a little disappointed with the drama near the end. The conclusion was bittersweet since only one of the five friends makes it to space. ~7/10 rating~ for a short educational series about reaching your dreams. Despite some of the slow angst areas, the actors were excellent. Don't expect it to follow the manga though...

An easy week please.

Spent some time googling online nicknames for contact info; google = effective. Heard that rambler.ru is a good search engine because Russia has lax copyright laws...wahoo...now to learn Russian.

Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood 21! So many LOL moments are in this episode. I appreciate the attention the subordinates get especially since I know they develop into even better characters later on.
