			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Jesus is gone now, but in these wrists, and in my side—!!</p>
<p><span id="more-1599"></span></p>
<p>I was ready to Disappear into the Summer, but <a href="http://lelangir.dasaku.net/">lelangir</a> sucks at <a href="http://not.dotq.org/2009/04/22/leave-lolikit-alone?cid=57651#comment-57651"><abbr title="and other things, but mostly improve">improv</abbr></a>. Three simple letters—a &#8220;w,&#8221; a &#8220;u,&#8221; and a &#8220;t&#8221;—informed me that either my attempt at humor was, as <a href="http://drmchsr0.wordpress.com/2009/04/23/making-funny-is-hard/">drmchsr0 might say</a>, a poor imitation of my <abbr title="aniblog messiahs 1, 2, and 4.">past self</abbr>, or that the &#8216;sphere just wasn&#8217;t ready for a Second Ascension. </p>
<p>But what really triggered me to end this sham was the following post from CCY: <a href="http://m3.dasaku.net/k-on-is-a-lot-like-a-little-sister-or-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-worship-mio/871/">K-ON! Is a Lot Like a Little Sister</a>. Not because it made me laugh nor because it made me cry, but because it was so goddamn stupid to the point of becoming an instant classic. </p>
<p>Really, Senpai-kun? <i>Really?</i></p>
<p>In a world where there is so much strife, so much unwarranted competition, such rife capitalism, so much disease, so many religious <a href="http://not.dotq.org/2008/05/21/lolikits-vocab-lessons-part-1-no-more-faggotry">faggerjacks</a>, and <abbr title="Seriously, CCY discusses the global economic crisis in his post.">so little money</abbr>, <s>you&#8217;re <i>worrying about K-ON!&#8217;s quality?!</i></s> <b>My bad. He has <em>stopped</em> worrying about K-ON!&#8217;s quality.</b></p>
<p>Actually, I didn&#8217;t read the fucking post. Knowing CCY, and knowing his opinion of Lucky Star, I know that reading the post would send me into a frothing fit of fury.</p>
<p>But one thing in the introductory paragraph stood out to me:</p>
<blockquote><p>Even though I would love to return to the spotlight at the same time as lolikitsune, acting as his most disturbing senpai, the words aren’t flowing yet.</p></blockquote>
<p>Pictorial evidence, Exhibit A:</p>
<p><a href="http://flak.dotq.org/skitch/wut-20090424-103742.jpg"><img src="http://flak.dotq.org/skitch/wut-20090424-103742.jpg" alt="CCY's new theme is purple~" title="CCY's new theme is purple~" /></a></p>
<blockquote class="caption"><p>Apparently, the &#8220;L&#8221; in &#8220;LK&#8221; is the better half.</p></blockquote>
<p>But now isn&#8217;t the time to poke fun of Senpai&#8217;s CSS. Who the fuck cares if his text floats all over the place? I sure as hell don&#8217;t. The &#8220;point&#8221; here, as Kero would say, is that CCY thinks I&#8217;m making a return <abbr title="And here I was thinking it was to a morgue...">to the spotlight</abbr>. Am I? I don&#8217;t even know! But I&#8217;ll keep playing this idiotic game as long as you morons keep inflating my <a href="http://facebook.com/pages/LK/73959898009" title="LK page on Facebook, become a fan now!">ego</a> with your comments, your tweets, your blog posts, your prayers.</p>
<p>So I&#8217;m back now? Fuck if I know. I&#8217;ll hedge this one to the ends of the earth.</p>
<p>What did you just mouth, Jim? I need to post about anime in order to be back? Ffffffffff. Well, I guess I&#8217;ll make a token attempt in order to please Senpai.</p>
<p><b>Guin Saga</b>: Plus: pretty backgrounds. Con: Lemus. Reminiscent of: Jyu Oh Sei x <a href="http://not.dotq.org/2006/08/16/the-melancholy-of-a-rumbling-shadow-why-or-why-not-to-bitch-about-certain-things">Shadow Warrior Chronicles</a>. Dropped after one episode.</p>
<p><b>Hanasakeru Seishounen</b>: Plus: pretty boys. Con: ugly girls. Reminiscent of: Yami to Boushi to Hon no Tabibito (I think it was the big cat on a tropical island). Dropped after five minutes. I couldn&#8217;t even make it to the pretty boys =(</p>
<p><b>Valkyria Chronicles</b>: Plus: short skirts. Con: idiotic characters. Reminiscent of: Violinist of Hamelin. Tentatively watching.</p>
<p><b>Sengoku Basara</b>: OH MY GOD SHIT&#8217;S SO REAL!!</p>
<p><a href="/images/date-masamune"><img src="/images/date-masamune" alt="Date Masamune" title="Date Masamune" /></a> </p>
<p>That&#8217;s about it for anime.</p>
<p>Oh, and while I&#8217;m alive, let&#8217;s clear something up for newcomer <a href="http://moritheil.wordpress.com/">Mori</a>. Jim, bring up the Twitter.</p>
<p><a href="http://twitter.com/moritheil/status/1590017553"><img src="http://flak.dotq.org/skitch/herr-doktor-20090424-104125.jpg" alt="twitter sucks bricks" title="twitter sucks bricks" /></a></p>
<p>The good doctor, Moritheil, is none other than <i>moi même</i>: Dr. lolikitsune, with Ph.D. in lolikitean, trolling, and good taste.</p>
<p>In final news: <a href="http://not.dotq.org/2009/04/23/on-wednesday-night-an-aniblogger-died-in-berkeley?cid=57719#comment-57719">my legendary <abbr title="Owen S.">PR guy</abbr> is talking to me again?!</a> I doubt I&#8217;ve done anything right, so I&#8217;m just writing him down as a mindless Watchmen fanboy.</p>

<blockquote><p>LUNCH IN THE ROSE GARDEN?!?!?!!oneoneeleven</p></blockquote>
<p>It&#8217;s been ages since I last blogged <a href="http://flak.dotq.org/skitch/mouryou-trainwreck-20081019-082233.jpg">trainwreck</a> yuri. How many ages, you ask? <a href="http://not.dotq.org/2006/09/25/strawberry-panic-26-end-and-so-we-see-the-grand-conclusion-of-one-grand-anime" title="a year and a half">Too many</a> (<a href="http://not.dotq.org/2007/03/26/kannazuki-no-miko-ep-25">this</a> doesn&#8217;t count, because any yuri involving Chikane is automatically excellent). And damn is it good to be back.</p>
<p><a href="http://flak.dotq.org/skitch/mouryou-2-20081019-070140.jpg"><img src="http://flak.dotq.org/skitch/mouryou-2-20081019-070140.jpg" alt="mouryou 2" title="omg is that apple wallpaper?!" /></a></p>
<blockquote><p>I&#8217;M REMINDED OF AGONY&mdash;SO WHERE&#8217;S THE <abbr title="vagina-bumping lololol">SHELL-MATCHING</abbr>?</p></blockquote>
<p>This show isn&#8217;t necessarily <i>bad</i>, actually. I just need something to make fun of right now, and Hyakko is too obvious. Toradora! has <a href="http://www.farawaynowhere.com/blog/2008/10/18/toradora-best-show-ever-until-i-change-my-mind/">already been served justice</a>, of course. Now, I&#8217;ve not ready any other blogs&#8217; posts on Mouryou no Hako, aside from taking one glancing blow of a look at some post that accused someone of accusing the show of sucking. In other words, I have no idea what the &#8220;community sentiment&#8221; is. <a href="http://cjblackwing.wordpress.com">CJ Blackwing</a> told me to watch this and mellow_bunny told me to blog this. That&#8217;s all there is to it.</p>
<p><a href="http://flak.dotq.org/skitch/mouryou-3-20081019-070412.jpg"><img src="http://flak.dotq.org/skitch/mouryou-3-20081019-070412.jpg" alt="mouryou 3" title="ehehehe couldn't help myself" /></a></p>
<blockquote><p>KANAKO BEAM</p></blockquote>
<p>As for any &#8220;real&#8221; thoughts I have regarding this show, well. I really did laugh a little when I saw Kanako reading on their date (and immediately remembered Lovely Kitsune&#8217;s post, and immediately needed to follow mellow_bunny&#8217;s advice). I really was amused by our heroine&#8217;s reactions to things and her gradual spiral downward into <s>the sea of oblivion</s> insanity. On the other hand, the show did pique my curiosity: I&#8217;m interested to find out what the hell is up with the talking heads in boxes, and stuff. Looks like yuri subplot isn&#8217;t over yet because the ED is an endless ring of naked girls, so maybe it&#8217;s not actually a subplot.</p>
<div class="imgleft"><a href="http://flak.dotq.org/skitch/mouryou-4-20081019-070531.jpg"><img src="http://flak.dotq.org/skitch/mouryou-4-20081019-070531.jpg" alt="mouryou 4" title="You think all I do is stand here and feel my nuts" /></a></p>
<blockquote><p>halo thar, MY NAME IS MR. COCKBLOCK</p></blockquote>
</div>
<p>On the other hand, I absolutely cannot bring myself to care about our heroine (or her fuck buddy). Neither displays any substantial character prior to existing as nothing but <abbr title="that's gotta be a trope, right?">insane lesbians</abbr>. Neither is especially sympathetic, nor is either unsympathetic enough for me to care. They&#8217;re just sorta there, dancing under the moonlight.</p>
<p>And I guess that&#8217;s okay. Just, not the makings of an awesome yuri.</p>
<p>Buuuut it looks like we&#8217;ll be seeing more of this detective guy, and it looks like he might be more of a main character ultimately than our moon-crossed crazies, so things might turn out alright. The show also has a chance to become <i>fucking awesome</i>. Check out this line of events:</p>
<p><br class="clear" /></p>
<ol>
<li>our heroine cooperates with Detective&#8217;s investigation</li>
<li>Kanako&#8217;s servant/brother/whoever Mr. Cockblock is knows Kanako&#8217;s secrets</li>
<li>Mr. Cockblock, in order to protect Kanako&#8217;s honor, kills our heroine</li>
<li>Mr. Cockblock and Detective have hot buttsex</li>
</ol>
<div class="center"><a href="http://flak.dotq.org/skitch/mouryou-5-20081019-070833.jpg"><img src="http://flak.dotq.org/skitch/mouryou-5-20081019-070833.jpg" alt="please be gentle" title="please be gentle" style="height:160px;" /></a> <a href="http://flak.dotq.org/skitch/mouryou-6-20081019-071026.jpg"><img src="http://flak.dotq.org/skitch/mouryou-6-20081019-071026.jpg" alt="you're being too rough!" title="you're being too rough!" style="height:160px;" /></a></p>
<blockquote><p>PLEASE BE GENTLE&mdash;T-TOO ROUGH!!</p></blockquote>

<p><i>The many faces of Kusumoto.</i></p>
<p><a href="http://flak.dotq.org/skitch/mouryou-7-20081019-074349.jpg"><img src="http://flak.dotq.org/skitch/mouryou-7-20081019-074349.jpg" alt="yamibou vibes" title="fuck yeah choking hoes" /></a></p>
<blockquote><p>I CAME A LITTLE, THEN I REMEMBERED YAMI TO BOUSHI TO HON NO TABIBITO. I CAME AGAIN.</p></blockquote>
<div class="imgright"><a href="http://flak.dotq.org/skitch/mouryou-8-20081019-074924.jpg"><img src="http://flak.dotq.org/skitch/mouryou-8-20081019-074924.jpg" alt="one cat follows another cat" title="one cat follows another cat" /></a></p>
<blockquote><p>HERDING LILIES IS DANGEROUS WORK, BUT ONE LILY FOLLOWS ANOTHER LILY</p></blockquote>
</div>
<p>Would I recommend this show to the casual viewer? Too early to tell. The possibilities seem endless. This could be a really interesting detective story or a really bad story about unrequited love, suicide, paranoia, and rebirth as your lover (again, Yami to Boushi to Hon no Tabibito parallels). There are other directions it could go, too. /me shrugs</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll have fun blogging this until I stop having fun with it, I suppose.</p>
<p>Any other shows I should be blogging regularly? Let me know in the comments.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With the recent developments in Episode 9 of DMC, we see a show with a crappier premise than Gunslinger Girl&#8217;s and a crappier main character than Lucky Star&#8217;s and a crappier dedication to realism than Aria&#8217;s drill its way into my Top 10 All-Time Anime list. I don&#8217;t know whether it&#8217;s replacing Loveless, or Maria-sama ga Miteru, or Yami to Boushi to Hon no Tabibito,  or some other pansy show&mdash;in large part because I don&#8217;t actually <i>have</i> a set-in-stone Top 10 All-Time Anime list&mdash;but it&#8217;s replacing <i>something</i>.
