krpalmer: (anime)
As this year rolled to a close I was still watching a good number of new anime series through online streaming and still chipping away at the discs I've piled up. Along with that routine, I also had the chance to try a strategy I've been waiting a while for, ordering anime from the end-of-year sales of the online store I've long frequented in quantities grandiose enough to meet their raised free shipping threshold. All of a sudden, I wasn't lacking for "shows I wanted to get," even if some part of that might have either having forgotten or plain managing to ignore the reasons tossed out on the message board I frequent to disdain an assortment of domestic releases.
Leading off: El Cazador de la Bruja and The Rose of Versailles )
Adventures in streaming: Beyond the Boundary, Golden Time, and Ace of the Diamond )
Fallen by the wayside: Infinite Stratos 2 and Galilei Donna )
Personal standouts: Gundam Build Fighters and Kill la Kill )
Along the way: Space Brothers and My Otome )
Rounding things out: Space Battleship Yamato 2199 and Lupin the Third )
krpalmer: (Default)
We've made it through another year, and once again I'm closing it out by taking the first sentence from the first post of each month. Where in years before I had tried to write a post in between each episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000 commented on, this year I was trying to write a post every week, just to say I had. I managed to work the numbers assigned to each new post above two hundred thousand, which feels like sort of an accomplishment. Managing that much, though, does sometimes leave me thinking I've slugged away at this long enough and I can "retire," unnoticed yet without personal reproach. I can shake that thought off other times, though.
A year in twelve sentences )
See you in the new year!
