Nichijou 18: It’s coffee, guys, but not as we know it…

Ah, so /that’s/ where you’ve been, Crusader-senpai… This week, we get more coffee flavoured fun as the creepy stupid Science teacher and Yukko both fall foul of the caffeinated stuff, while we meet another new character and a few old faces return…

Nichijou 15-17: Dodgy teachers galore!

O_O In these episodes, we see Nano settling into her school life in a fairly successful manner, but still constantly worried about having to explain the presence of that ruddy great big wind-up key in her back, and we also get the introduction of a few more new characters…

Nichijou 14: The many faces of Nano… and they’re all full of DAAWWW

‘Daawww’ is not even the word… After the major turning point at the end of last week’s episode, there are plenty of new things to look forward to in this one, not least of all a(n even more frenetic) second OP and a new ED. And a whole lot of Nano – YAY!

Nichijou 11-13: Turning-point

Yukko’s mum. Still awesome In these three episodes we (unfortunately), got a whole load more of Yukko in retard-mode, but (fortunately), a whole lot more of Nano (and friends) in adawwable mode. And more of Yukko’s mum being awesome. And a rather unexpected twist at the end…

Nichijou 08-10 – Mums Know Best

Well deserved bitch slaps FTW. Yikes, it’s been over a month since my last Nichijou post – I’m sorry, didn’t mean to disappear off the face of the ’blogosphere! (In brief: was ill, then we moved house, then I didn’t have internet at the new place for ages. Fun times.) Anyway, I should be all [...]

Reflections on a Year of Fangirling…

It may be my first blog birthday today, but it’s definitely a collective celebration – yay! Hello, readers old and new. This time last year, I published my first post on T.H.A.T., so I thought I’d mark the occasion with some brief words to illustrate the highlights of my first year as an anime blogger. [...]

Nichijou 07 – Reaching you…

Stolen glances… Good lord, DAT OPENING… Well, nice to see this show is still going strong and trying new things. After the face-achingly funny deer-wrestling episode, this one had a different tone, but it was just as enjoyable seeing some of the other characters get some welcome development and also seeing most of the key [...]

Nichijou 05-06 – The many faces of Yukko… and everyone else…

Moé desu! Hmm. I think I saw the opening to epi 5 at least twice before watching the rest of the epi. ‘Hmm’, because I usually hate moé-for-the-sake-of-being-moé. I guess there’s just something about those two. Or rather, three, for let’s not forget Sakamoto-san’s epic faces either, while all that was going on. And speaking [...]

Nichijou 04 – The Snow Queens

Oh, you know you would’ve done the same… This week’s Nichijou for me was a case of Yay! for more goat guy, Yay! for more Nano, Yay! for more Mohawk guy, and Nay! for more Mai, soo much more Mai… grr…

Nichijou 01-03 – And that’s how you do ‘random’!

I cannot begin to describe how this screenshot makes me feel. So I won’t. Ah, the excitement at the start of a new season! Now that I’ve tried all the new shows that I think I’ll like, (potential trainwrecks aside) it looks like I’ll be following HanaIro, AnoHana, C, Sekai-ichi, Ao no Exorcist, Tiger & [...]
