Don’t worry, normal summaries and reviews will still continue. The Digest is just a peripheral thing. Make sure you read on though:

ARIA The Animation Episode 12

Another episode involving the mysterious “past” of Aria. This time, Akari gets to visit the very first colonists of Aria, at a time when Aria has yet to be flooded. While it is nice to know about Aria’s past, I much prefer episodes involving the camaraderie of the trios.

Bleach Episode 65

It seems this divergence from the manga is going to stay. For now, I can’t say whether I’m interested in this anime-only arc yet, given the lack of details surrounding the new “bad” guys. But one thing’s for sure, this episode is no different from the previous one. Instead of Inoue being kidnapped, it’s Chad’s turn. Bleh.

Onmyou Taisenki Episode 10

I couldn’t find my disc with the 9th episode, so I skipped straight to the 10th. And this episode is another boring one, with yet another banal battle. But since Riku has finally returned to his “seat of power”, it’s about time we see more exciting stuff.

Kashimashi Episode 2

Yes, Kashimashi is progressing just fine. Hazumu is uber cute, especially with this bra-buying episode! At the moment, I’m enjoying the comedy, but with the appearance of the aliens, I hope to see the more interesting parts the manga readers have been talking about. Anyway, where’s my yuri???

Black Cat Episode 13

Hoho, Black Cat is a cute kid alright. I think it must be this transformation that will trigger his Tao powers, enabling him to fight Creed on equal terms. I wonder what kind of abilities Number 13 will get though.

In an effort to ingrain regular posting habits, I’ll be posting daily anime digests - very concise (or rather, terse) summaries of the various anime I watch on that particular day. And today, we have:

Law of Ueki Episode 33

The transition to Dragonball status isn’t sitting well with me, even though I’m still interested in seeing how Ueki develops.

Mar Episode 27

Finally, another loss for Mar. It’s always boring to see continuous wins for the good guys, ya know. But with Ginta fighting the next one though, I doubt we’ll see another loss. Actually, I was surprised with the preview of ep. 28. I had really expected Rolan to fight Ginta.

Onmyou Taisenki Episode 8

I’m not sure why I started on Taisenki anymore. The novelty of the special effects has already worn off. This episode is the 8th episode and the 8th battle our protagonist is subjected to. Far too predictable.

Yakitate Japan Episode 53

Arghh! And I thought the reactions had reached their supernatural limits when Cannabis Japan changed history. The new Yakitate 9 competition is clearly an attempt to extend the show.

Rozen Maiden Traumend Episode 11

Another strong episode from Traumend. How will Shinku and Jun react? I’d hoped to see Jun weave some miracles with his ability the ability we saw at the end of Season 1 around this stage. Hopefully, we’ll see something like that in the next and final episode.
