Zooming through the mall

I enjoy stalking an item for several months, and then finally purchasing it at 50% off.

Summer Wars jmovie! is about a girl, Natsuki, whose large family is getting together for their grandmother's 90th birthday. Natsuki coerces a boy, Kenji, to come along and pretend to be her boyfriend. He gets involved with her family's problems and a problem that threatens the world through a virtual game. The story takes a feel-good approach to how everyone now has an online identity, and how everything relies on the internet world. An online threat forces Natsuki's old, established family to take part in a modern war. It's a bit funny to see how the Japanese writers make the US the 'bad guys' who made an oopsies. The look of the anime reminded me of the Takashi Murakami x Louis Vuitton videos. ~7/10 rating~ It felt a bit long and didn't have the fresh charm that The Girl Who Leapt Through Time did, but it was still a solid Madhouse fluffy production.
Kimi ni Todoke 8! Maybe an overload on the smiley, sparkles and sweetness, but still, a nice episode. The curly-haired whiny girl looks to be plotting something..surprise, surprise.
Naruto Shippuden 137! eye obsession....where've I seen that before? The animation has gotten less impressive as of the late. Sasuke's extra Orochimaru-rooted powers and transformations are not that attractive; pretty ugly actually.
