Kobato 09-10-11: Not Dead Yet

By Mabdese | Published: January 10, 2010
A dreaded three headed cute monster has appeared! Doing the dreaded triple review of episodes to catch up. I’ve been really tied up through the holidays and I know there’s even more episodes out and the new stuff is starting to pop up around the interwebs but you’ll have to take it at my pace. After [...]

Kobato 06-07: Hide and Seek Super Fun Plot Explosion

By Mabdese | Published: December 4, 2009
This is Kobato looking for the plot, luckily 30 seconds later she found it but not before tripping on it of course! After a long ridiculous week at work (thought technically I still have tomorrow to go) I was pretty happy to come home to Kobato. After the firefly episode my heart has completely melted to [...]

Kobato 05: Hope and Fireflies

By Mabdese | Published: November 28, 2009
At this moment I wasn’t sure Kobato could read… After overcoming great technical difficulties (a storm knocked my internet out for THREE DAYS) here I am with the fifth installment of Kobato. This episode was actually really touching and didn’t have any characters from other series popping up  at all. I feel like that made this [...]

Kobato 04: From Heaven, With Love

By Mabdese | Published: November 24, 2009
Honestly if it’s a futon it can’t be THAT nice. This post is a bit late but I’ve decided that’s okay since I won Nanowrimo meaning I’ve finished the first draft of my fifth book! I promise from now on to attempt more than one update per week. In the words of Kobato, Mabdese will do [...]

Samurai High School (J-Drama): Pretty Much Live Action Anime

By Mabdese | Published: November 19, 2009
One of these things is not like the other~ Something that has always perplexed me is why anime fans don’t watch more Jdramas. I’m sure this could be for any number of reasons but many dramas are based off anime  (Hana Yori Dango, Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon, GTO, Nana, etc.) and some seriously seem to have [...]

Kobato 02-03: Cameos, Umbrellas, and Candy

By Mabdese | Published: November 15, 2009
I love you Iroyogi-san, don’t change. So I’m doing a little catch up since I joined the team mid-season. I really wanted this to be a Samurai High School post but some unfortunate things that made me feel a bit like I had Kobato’s common sense happened and I won’t be able to post it until [...]

Kobato 01: In CLAMP I Trust (Kind Of…)

By Mabdese | Published: November 12, 2009
Ever since I became an anime fan I knew that CLAMP was the bandwagon for me. Is it the pointy faces? The impossibly wide shoulders? Or is it the strange undercurrent of bisexuality in all of their works? I may never know, but one thing I do know is that CLAMP is a team of [...]
