Kamisama Dolls 10: I did not think this anime could get any better

I guess I was wrong about the Kakashi being mindless automatons, huh.

God I’m surprised Mahiru can still pass for a mentally-sound human being.

Because that was the most unnerving depiction of mindrape I’ve seen in anime. It wasn’t graphic, it wasn’t blatant, it wasn’t complex, but it was brutally effective.

It may not have broken Mahiru’s psyche (not entirely), but it certainly broke the fourth wall and took a stab at mine.

I didn’t see this coming. I thought all the crap in the village history was settled in episode 7. I now have mad respect for Kyouhei. Mad respect.

The sounds of Mahiru crying, Aki and Kyouhei babbling, while the earth around them crackles, smoulders and burns.

I can still hear them just by looking at that screencap.

I certainly hope Brains Base can bring Kamisama Dolls to a grand conclusion, or an acceptable leadoff into a second season. My expectations have been raised once more – and now I desperately need that closure.

Kamisama Dolls 01-08: Hands down, my favourite anime of this season

Also, one of the best I’ve seen in a long time.

Kamisama Dolls 07: Apparently some people think it’s okay that Chihaya was raped and killed

“She was an adult who should have known better than to sleep around with her student’s father anyway.”

If you don’t want to be exposed to an excessive amount of vulgarity, you’d be better off not reading the rest of this post.

Ikoku Meiro no Croisée 02: I would so accompany Yune through an entire supermarket

Alphabetically, categorically; it matters not.

This is what the Encyclopedia Britannica is missing: an electronic reader component with Yune’s voice reading out each and every entry.

GPS Yune version? It’ll never work – too many drivers dying of heart attacks.

Ikoku Meiro no Croisée 01: It’s a Lost In Translation moment

So cute it's radioactive (too soon?).

If I could spend a day staring at a screencap of Azu-nyan, I could definitely spend a week staring at a screencap of Yune.

(I’d be dead after the first 3 days, but my body would still be facing the screen. Probably.)
