Oldtaku: Anime for Grownups

Friday Anime – 2010 Mar 19

Whoops, this is a week late because I completely forgot about it because I’ve been working furiously at getting caught up on freaking One Piece manga. More to come on that. But here’s what we did one entire week ago today:

• Zenryoku Usagi 24
• Nodame Cantabile 8
• Kaitou Reinya 6
• Working! 1
• Durarara!! 8
• Cheburashka Areare 18
• G.A. Gejutsuka Art Design Class 12
• Higepiyo 39
• Cooking Master Boy 12

Noooooo, it’s the end of Higepiyo. I enjoyed that for the entire 39 eps – it’s amazing how much less you demand at 3 minutes per episode.

Also the end of G.A., which went out without even a twitch – which is appropriate for this low key series.

Working!! was a preview of a new series about a guy working for a Famiresu (Family Restaurant like Denny’s) with all sorts of fetish-filling girls. Hello harem, Hello Comic Party, which is what it mostly reminded me of. Also Hello the annoying bright red This is a preview watermark in the upper right hand corner for the entire episode.

Nodame Cantabile Finale continues to be fantastic, and Durarara!! continues to be entertaining – and I really do want to see where the plot is. Hopefully it’s more interesting than the obvious guesses I’ve put together. My guess about the head was spot on.
