Short Circuit's Journal: This Week at Coffee

I left off two anime from last week's episode*. One's name is Genshiken, which we watched several episodes of. It was funny and enjoyable, but one can only stay awake so long into the early morning. The other was Devil Hunter Yohko, which we watched only long enough to discover it was an H movie.

This is a special episode, as none of us had any other New Years plans, so we met at B's house to watch anime into the new year. Normally, we only do this on Friday nights.

Anyway, this week, we watched a few episodes of The Galaxy Railways, which I found I liked, if only for the screwy time travel in the first couple episodes. But then, I'm a former Trek addict. It's kinda weird getting your head around spacegoing steam engines, but the visuals "explain" it well enough. There are a number of cliches; The plot (in some ways) is predictable.

We followed with two or three episodes of My Hime. It got funnier and funnier, but we stopped watching after tentacles showed up.

Next, we watched Daphne in the Brilliant Blue. Lots of fanservice. Especially after the first episode. It's similar to GetBackers, I suppose, but with a different style of humor.

Following that, we watched another disc of Ranma 1/2. (Disc 3) Still awesome, never seems to get stale.

And now, following that, I'm heading home. :-)
