Sailor Moon Episode 07 - Usagi Learns a Lesson! The Road to Stardom is Tough

Okay, so it's like, really cold out, and it's pretty late at night, and I figure why should I reward myself with something nice like a video game or a tv show I actually want to watch? No, I should watch some more Sailor Moon, because I really seem to enjoy hurting myself. Masochism is the in-thing.

Episode preview says: There's a monster who's totally going to... force people to perform Cinderella? Wait, seriously? And now in addition to the episode overview, we're now getting quick recaps of how she got her powers and all that, which you know just eats up more time. Normally, I hate these kinds of things. Actually, I still do. But at least the silver lining here is that's like, 30 seconds less of this show I actually have to force myself to tolerate, so there's a bonus.

Kodomo no Jikan 02 - A Smile As Reward

So, according to some people, I have clearly not punished myself quite nearly enough this week. You know what that means? It's time for another episode of pedo-rape. Because let's just be honest with ourselves here, the kids are the ones in control here, not the adult. Which is pretty messed up in and of itself, I assure you.

YOU ARE THE CRUEL THINGS.

Sailor Moon Episode 06 - Protect the Melody of Love! Usagi is a Cupid

After that last one, I had to take some deep soul searching and ask myself: Why do I hate myself so? Why would my friends ask me to watch something like that? And more importantly, how in the hell am I ever going to manage to finish it?

The answer is to keep going on with Sailor Moon. Because at least it is less brain-scarring than that last show. With that in mind, let's move onto the next episode.

Kodomo no Jikan Episode 01 - A Friendly Step

Alternate title: Expanding My Horizons For Hating Myself.

It would appear that some of my so-called 'friends' feel as though my descent into madness is too slow. They would wish it to be accelerated by exposing me to other 'shows'.

One of my friends, we shall call him Peter, is perhaps the worst friend you could ever have (in the best kind of way, does that even make sense? Probably not). Of course, I have no proof of this. Yet. I get the feeling though, that by the end of this, I am going to want to destroy something cute and cuddly. Perhaps a box of baby rabbits.

I know pretty much nothing about this show. Except that it is almost universally reviled. I saw a topic posted on anidb.com referring to it as "The worst show in the world." Sounds like a pretty perfect fit for this particular blog.

Sailor Moon Episode 05 - A Monster's Scent! Chanela Steals Love

It is that time again, when I hate myself enough to subject my poor brain to another episode of Blondie In Tokyo Screws Up. I only have 196 episodes left to go, so no time like the present, may as well try and slog through it.

If I've never mentioned just how much I hate 'episode previews', or in this case, 'episode overviews', then let me just take a couple minutes and go over that. I HATE EPISODE OVERVIEWS. I AM WATCHING THE EPISODE BECAUSE I WANT TO SEE HOW THINGS ARE GOING TO UNFOLD, I DON'T NEED TO SEE THE ENTIRE THING CONDENSED IN ABOUT TWENTY SECONDS BEFORE I WATCH THE STUPID THING. IT IS COMPLETELY UNNECESSARY AND A WASTE OF EVERYONE'S TIME.

Sailor Moon Episode 04 - Usagi Will Teach You How To Lose Weight!

Welcome once again to another wonderful session of beating myself in the eyeballs with old anime. I would probably post these more often if it wasn't for the fact that, for the average 20-minute episode, it takes me nearly an hour to get this whole thing written up. Also, between Borderlands 2 and a newfound love for Civilization V, let's just say I've been busy.

But please, we're here to watch old anime! So let's get this thing started. Based on the title, I'm just going to go out on a limb and suggest that maybe they were trying to teach kids that there's more to life than just sitting inside and watching television, so you can be bombarded by lots and lots of commercials that make you want to scream to your parents that there is this awesome cool new thing that you just HAVE TO HAVE. But I dunno, maybe they're going to touch on some, y'know, serious issues here.
