xxxHOLiC 20! m'sorry, I fell asleep. It was the woman with the photo story. I'm going to blame the awful background music for creating that dull atmosphere. This show and Jigoku Shoujo have the same essential element of horror missing. Mushishi was more successful in creating the presence of scariness or mystery that led up to the *ah~* part in each episode.

quick mention: Ouran 22 & 23 were the funniest episodes to date. more later.

quick review: Yuki's "Wave" album is a really fun album. There are strong tracks throughout; 9/10 rating. Suga Shikao's "Parade" album is also a great album which also gets 9/10. I want his sunglasses.

another quickie: Furuba 132 is not the end. Momiji, Shigure and Akito had some interesting moments in that chapter. Although the resolution lacked the depth that the beginning of the manga seemed to go towards, it's nice to know that it's almost over.

yep, since the dialogue isn't too difficult, i can understand most of the episode without subs. plus, the visuals are very entertaining.

the raw episodes are usually on youtube fairly quickly.

it's fun to watch each episode a couple times; w/o & w/ subs.
