I realize that I am perhaps one of the most infrequent posters to an anime blog. My appologies, I can only say “life happens”. But that aside, I just finished watching a number of anime shows that I thought were pretty good. I’ll list them here. (in no particular order)

Ladies x Butlers – I went into this thinking it was going to be kind of lame. To my suprise, it had a number o humerous scenes and mini story lines. I wished it was longer than it was though. There were a few loose ends left open on the last episode.

Cross Game – if I were to pick a well done anime for the season, 2 actually, it would be this one. This show follows a group of friends as they grow up. Through their losses, challenges and changes. The friends are all baseball players striving to win the big tournament. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a show with a well played out storyline.

Special A – in a similar light to Ouran Host Club, this is fun series that take a light hearted look at the lives of a group of top honor students and their inter-relationships. It is on my “buy list”.

Skull Man – mystery suspense. Just started watching this series. Looks to be a government bullies citizens and some fight back type series.

His and Her Circumstances – He and she fall in love after butting heads. Eventually come to realize they are very much alike. Both fought to keep others from seeing their true selves until they met each other and fell in love.

Glass Mask – Just started watching last night. Girl who loves plays has a life changing experience one night while working. At first I thought why am I clicking play on this video on demand feature. I even fast forwarded through some. That was when I decided to back up an see what I had just missed. The main character is so passion filled with respect to plays, she dove into the bay to retrieve a ticket she had won on a bet. It is from this point on the series begins in a different direction.

In Manga, I try to keep going where I can. IPhone and scantilations work well. Here is a quick list of what I have been reading:

Negima!
Kimi ni Todeke – long drawn out boy meets girl and live blossums story. Saw the anime, hope they make another season to continue the story.
Blood (the novel series)
Yatsuba&! – this is cute, reminds me of one of my kids. Cracked me up to hear it mentioned recently in the anime, Durarara!!
Do You Want To Try – finished and wondered why I read it.
Bamboo Blade
Onidere – why I am reading this, I’m not sure. Seems to be a repeat of the same thing over and over.
