New season update

Shikabane Hime licensed, oh wellz.

Menclave did pick up A tale of Melodies, so I did too. It looks just like the first season, and for that I am giddy. But after the second episode, I noticed that we're only following 2 couples this time. Last season we had 3, and Chihiro was one of them. I don't know if this season can be good with just 2 couples, and without Chihiro. On another note, the raw looks like analogue capture because it halo's a lot.

Clannad After Story 1 widescreen finally came out today whereas 4:3 version is already at episode 4. We continue where we left off from the first season and not much has changed. The new OP sounds cool at the end, and follows the same format the first OP... wait... where's Fuuko!? Nooooo. ;_; ED was pretty fail; nothing interesting like Dango Daikazoku. Seriously why does everyone hate Fuuko? Hopefully she'll come back at the end like Makoto and it'll be good. Yeah why does everyone hate Makoto too!? Her arc was teh best.

For the actual first episode, the lolz from first season continued in full swing. And I'm not sure if this season can succeed, we seemed to have already fully developed all the characters in the first season. I guess we'll see how much tear I'll shed, and if they'll start up some interesting plots. The first episode was just a reintroduction of all the characters (MINUS FUUKO >=( ).

Lucky Star OVA - looks like a.f.k. debanded, so I'm going to watch the only subbed version out there, now. And well, it's the same hit and miss comedy with hit and miss references as the series. But seriously, they gave the fans what the fans raged about on the internets. Especially Kagami, poor Kagami. And an extended live-action lucky channel

Wagaya no Oinari-sama finished, overall an enjoyable series.

I also picked up Xam'd, which started last season, and I would've picked it up last season, except I didn't know it was being subbed. The pictures are really clean, animation is good, with the first 2 episodes featuring way too much animation. The story so far is alright, it's like Eureka 7.

Other than that, Bleach is out of fillers, Detroit Metal City continues to be teh funny. Chiko gets a cool weapon out of no where in Daughter of Twenty Faces 20 that allows her to become batman and fight robots and make swishing sounds and look cool. But it broke at the end of the episode.
