Mou ii yo! That's enough! I'm taking japanese off my flist for at least a few days, if not more! Reason? It was featured on LJ's Spotlight today, which means it's now flooded by intro posts and a hundred people explaining how long they've studied Japanese (or not) and half their life stories!!! *sigh* A pox on LJ and its bloody spotlight thing!

Funny thing, I just downloaded a whole load of best ofs by Janne Da Arc. :P They're pretty good, but very much a poppier version of ABC. And given how much I love that band... Here's their entire discography. ;)

And yes, I loooooved how quickly Miyano's character got taken out. Mwahaha. XD Maybe try Occult Academy? That's the other one I've been keeping tabs on this season. It has a fairly interesting plot and a female lead I can actually stand. I've never gone back to Uraboku, although I'm sure others will recommend it.

I dunno - Uraboku is very much a guilty pleasure - it sucks - and yet I'm still watching it.

I've watched the first ep of Kuroshitsuji II already - geez, it's *dark*.

The other one that has piqued my interest is Shangri-La.

It annoys me too much to even be a guilty pleasure - Luka's just so wet.

Oh yes. :) The next episode isn't anywhere near as dark, and then the one after that has Grell... But things get creepy as soon as the Trancy's show up again. (Hang on, what do you mean already? We're on episode 5!)

I've heard of it, but I'm not sure what it's about. Isn't Kakihara in it?

[vayshti]

He is. It's kinda why I want to see him abused and betrayed... we know it's going to happen, I wanna see the result. He's had his first crisis of faith now - not seen the real impact yet.

I seemed to have missed the boat on getting started on it - only grabbed the ep yesterday.

Near future, carbon-trading world where there's dodgy business afoot. Lead character is a total Mary Sue, but I'll forgive her that at the moment. Oh and there's a precocious brat with mis-matched eyes (lol)....if Kakihara is, I don't think I've met his character yet... yeah, he's in it. It also has Takahiro Sakurai - again, unsure in what capacity.
