Lighting in Bakemonogatari Episode 1: A Tribute to VOFAN?

When Bakemonogatari started, a lot of praise was given to the show’s spectacular background art, not so much because of the detail or style of the backgrounds, but because of the extensive lighting techniques. Some people have commented on the way that Bakemonogatari would not have been possible without modern technology, and many see it as a bridge into the future of what anime will look like. Of course, it being a SHAFT anime, most of the series doesn’t quite live up to the splendor of the first episode, but there’s something I feel the need to point out: I think there’s a good reason that this in particular was the show to use those new techniques on, and that reason was VOFAN.

Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu is Shin Oonuma’s Redemption (Episode 2)

Well, the time has finally come to show Shin Oonuma’s true potential to the world. He is directing Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu with a different studio than SHAFT, this time with SILVER LINKS, who have done in-between production on several SHAFT anime, but whose other productions were far weaker than Baka to Test. Baka has been granted a totally surprising high budget and SILVER LINKS is showing what it can do, which is great news for Oonuma who seems to be at his best.

The SoulTaker - Released and Relinquished Part One

This is The SoulTaker, which has my favorite opening song ever. It’s a show about a guy named Kyousuke Date who starts the show off by getting knifed in the heart by his own mother as she dies on the steps of a church – so it’s some pretty bleak stuff right off the bat! Kyousuke seems to have died and is buried, but some time after his death, a mysterious girl digs up his grave and, lo-and-behold, he’s alive. There seem to be a lot of strange forces after him, though, like mad cyborg doctors, a guy who acts like Wolfwood from Trigun, and a little pink-haired magical girl who carries a giant syringe.

Zen of the Zetsubou Girls 3: Chiri Kitsu

It’s Digiboy and Akiyuki Shinbo here once again to discuss what makes each of the Zetsubou girls so attractive. Today’s post was a pain because Chiri Kitsu demands everything to be strictly organized. That’s why we’re using full alignment for the text in this post and centering our avatars.

Zen of the Zetsubou Girls 2: Abiru Kobushi

Digiboy and Akiyuki Shinbo here, once again, to bring you our thoughts on the Zetsubou girls and what makes them so damn hot! Today we have Abiru Kobushi who, in stark contrast to the last girl, is very easy to find pornographic images of. Abiru appeals to quite a few fetishes, so I look forward to diving into her!

Zen of the Zetsubou Girls 1: Ai Kaga - Don't F This Up (5)

Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei is a show that stars a fairly large cast of voluptuous young ladies. When I was put to the task of delving into what exactly makes each of these girls so attractive – getting into ‘the bones of my boner’ so to speak – I knew I was facing quite a challenge. First, I knew it would have to be done in a series of posts. And second, I knew it couldn’t be done alone. The reason you see this Itoshiki avatar next to my text is that I’ve enlisted a fellow author to help me in the task of boning the Zetsubou girls! Ladies and gentlemen, I am pleased to introduce the man himself, the director of Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei, Akiyuki Shinbo!

11Eyes ep. 1 - For A Minute, I Thought I Was Watching The SoulTaker. Then I Realized I Was Wrong.

The opening minute or so of 11Eyes makes no sense, but will probably be explained somewhere down the line, long after I’ve stopped caring. It’s a scene from the protagonist’s past wherein his ‘big sis’ (not by blood) evidently killed herself – that’s about how much we learn by the end of the episode. The imagery, however, is unexplainable as of yet except by one train of logic – this show thinks it’s The SoulTaker.
