I just finished Itazura na Kiss. ^^
I didn't really like Moto-chan very much, but besides that I thought it was pretty good.

The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside quiet waters. He restores my soul; He guides me in paths of righteousness For His name's sake. Even though I walk though the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff, they comfort me. Thou dost prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; Thou hast anointed my head with oil; My cup overflows. Surely goodness and lovingkindness will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Psalm 23

Finished Death Note.

[spoiler]I was a bit disappointed that it wasn't L who defeated Light. I was expecting the whole time for L having left a hidden clue to be unveiled after his death by Near, that ended in Kira's capture. Oh well, overally it was great.[/spoiler]

Soul Eater and Bleach are the only two I'm actively watching. I'm going to start watching FMA brotherhood again and the third season of Higurashi.:grin:

Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence. Like the first movie, it was unexpectedly philosophical and a bit difficult to follow, but very good. I'll have to watch them both again sometime to get a better understanding of it all.

I caught up on some FMA Brotherhood episodes, 5 to 9, and watched Black Lagoon episodes 1 to 10 this week.

Started watching the Sailor Moon SuperS season and Vampire Knight Guilty. Maybe I'll catch some Naruto soon, since I haven't seen that in awhile.

K-On! (complete)

Just because it's plotless moeblob doesn't mean it's not entertaining. Surprisingly, watching cute girls do nothing (and occasionally sing really saccharine songs) didn't get boring. I'd watch a second season~

Previously I was a Mio follower but now my heart is torn between her and Azunyan~

Started watching XXXholic. It's been amazing, it seeps CLAMPness through every pore. It has a few seriously scary moments, well intertwined with comedy and their signature mystic drama. I find the dynamic of Watanuki and Doumeki's relationship infinitely entertaining too and the cameos and throwbacks to other series are really good. I look forward to see more, it's been a while since I was reminded why I used to be a fan of CLAMP.

Cromartie High School ep. 9(?)

I.... have no idea how to respond to this series. It has some hilariously odd moments (pencil eating, anyone?), and some moments that just make you shake your head. Sadly it has some crude language, which is fairly annoying, but the 10 minute length of the episodes is definitely a plus.

Cromartie is definately in my top ten.

Watched some more Sailor Moon SuperS and now watching FMA episode 25.

So far, I think Sailor Moon SuperS is probably my least favorite season so far, but I hear that's generally the norm. Plus, I still have lots of episodes left so it has chance to redeem itself. I can't wait to get to Stars though! But I'm gonna be really sad once the series is over.... Guess then I'll just focus on finishing the manga.

Just Bleach here, mainly because I'm on vacation, and taking a vacation means little time for watching stuff.
I'll have to start watching something new, maybe I'll try starting FMA Brotherhood although that won't take me very long once I get started.

Finally screwed my courage to the sticking place, and dove in to Baccano! - which so far IS pretty violent, but I'm handling it. However, I don't think I've run across the most violent character yet...so that could change...lol. Loving the story so far, and I'm already really liking a lot of the characters - I'm on the 5th episode right now. Music is great - I especially LOVE the ending theme.

Also saw the first ep of Ristorante Paradiso, and the preview of the second episode made me think I may not want to continue...

After reading the manga for a while, I've finally started watching the K-On! anime. Much enjoyment so far (yay guitars!)

Yeah, if you think Ludd is bad, wait up for Vino. Anyway, it's one of the greatest anime of this decade without doubt.

Yeah, I'm a little nervous about running into Vino...ah well, we'll see. Just waiting on Netflix to send me dvd 3, since this is one of the few anime that I'd prefer to see dubbed.

Also just started Black Blood Brothers.

Sword of the Stranger COMPLETED
Umineko no Naku Koro ni episodes 5-7

I forget how I usually mark movies as finished (as opposed to series), but Sword of the Stranger is one and I finished it about half an hour ago. Really a very solid movie. If this is Masahiro Andō's first film, I hope BONES finds more money to throw at him in the near future.

From what I've seen so far, the two versions really don't seem very different
