Apparently, Cal had a bit of a growth spurt during the time leap between  episode 19 and 20.  It looks more like a span of ten years rather than two. But, we are talking anime, here, where women of thirty years look twelve and those of sixteen look, well…older.

This Sin City movie poster was the image that immediately came to mind. I decided to make a rip-off (click for larger image).

So, this is where I’d put some caption on the image about Liang Ji really getting into the Wii. Seriously, she’s the freakin’ conductor of the crazy train.

Liang is such an insane character it’s hard not to like her. This is anime, so it is completely possible that they will work in some sympathetic story line for her that will justify all of her pure evilness. In all honesty, I really hope that isn’t the case. It would ruin her essence, her allure, her shining mental warped-ness that defines her.

Also, I seem to have started a perverse guessing game about when she will finally just kill Cummings (betting on ep 10, no real reason).

Like many others have stated, the show is worth watching on its production values alone. It’s a rather good work of animation. I can’t say that I find the story interesting at this point, but I find myself enjoying the characters. To that end, we all know that animation doesn’t necessarily a good anime make. Therefore, I’ll be waiting for something else to set this one apart. Six episodes in, they’re going to have to work for it, though.

So, I got curious as to what it would look like, given that we are expecting this to occur soon. You’ll have to forgive me for getting a little impatient.

Like every other Yuki fan on the planet, this was the only thing I absolutely wanted from the second season of Haruhi. Although, I’ll admit, I wasn’t aware of the possibility until shortly after the season started to air, because I haven’t read the novels.

Now that the Endless arc has finished, we’re left to wonder exactly how long they will make us wait for it. An even scarier thought is that it may not happen.  Supposedly, we’re all magically going to forgive Kyoani for Endless Eighto when Disappearance is done. Yet, I find myself a little apprehensive about the whole thing.

After, yet another, endless eight tragedy, I’m feeling a bit more angry than I was while writing my last post on the subject.  Basically, it started after that post. I decided to reminisce on the once-was Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu by doing a random google search.

I stumbled upon the God Knows video.

I think this endless eight stuff is finally starting to wear on me. Let me just rap this up by saying one last thing. Damnit, Kyon! … just bone her already so we can all move past this.
