Gunparade March Episode 02 - Do Whatever You Like - I am Who I Am

So, just to make sure I was going to be complaining about the correct things, I did a little bit of digging about some of the content of the DVDs for this show. Turns out, the official subs really aren't a whole lot better.

Also, for some reason this disc just loves to crash when I go turn on the English subtitles. Sure, maybe it's an issue with my video player, but I like to imagine it's actually because the quality of these DVDs is utter shit.

I am beginning to suspect that perhaps it is not worth the five dollars I spent on it.

Anyways, it's time to dive into this show again, so let's hop to it!

Sailor Moon SuperS Episode 02 - Super Transformations Again! Pegasus' Power

I continue my quest down this maddening road of insanity, and take one step closer to providing something vaguely resembling catching up.

I think I was going to put something poignant here, but then it floated away. So instead, I'll just let you pretend like I said something important, and possibly relevant to your personal life. Go get that thing I sent you! You can do it, hang in there and etcetera you heroic person you!

Give it another five minutes and I'm sure I'll begin hallucinating.

Dog Days' Episode 02 - Pastillage Joins The Battle!

Why god did I ever pick this show back up again?

Oh, right. Because I was desperate and I panicked.

Now, this marks my third entry for the week. My goal is to get all caught up so everything gets posted at roughly the same time.

I'm not claiming that I'll be able to keep up this pace, but it's my hope that maybe this time I'll actually manage to get caught up so releases come out at roughly the same time.

I really need a better hobby.

Sailor Moon SuperS Episode 01 - The Night Where a Pegasus Flies

You know, it of course occurs to me that I may have made a slight error in my estimation of post counts.

For you see, while today is in fact the technical 300th post (a hefty milestone I might add), there are several of these posts which are not, in fact, content posts, but rather they are, how do we say, lapses in judgment in their non-anime-relatedness.

Which means those don't count.

Of course, this also means that Final Reviews may or may not also count, which will also conflagrate the strange, warpiness inherent in the nature of these posts and their counting. Which is just a fancy way of saying that I've seriously miscounted somewhere.

And speaking of warping things (see what I did there), it's time to begin the long trip down the road called Sailor Stars. (Nice save brah.) I get this strange feeling that this may be the beginning of a steep decline, but seeing as how the last season ended, at least I'm coming into this one with zero expectations?

Let's do this.

Gunparade March Episode 01 - The Visitor

Every now and then, I start to think that maybe, just maybe, my actual job might be trying to kill me.

Slowly, of course, and over a very long period of time.

It seems like just about every time I am about to meet my goals for this blog, I wind up having to work those dreaded 13 hour shifts, and nobody tells me until I'm three hours in.

Shit gets really old, really fast.

I can't remember what else I wanted to put in here, but let's face it. I'm here for one reason and one reason only, and that reason is to drive myself insane. With this in mind, I present to you Gunparade March. Which I may be able to describe as 'that thing Strike Witches wanted to be'.

I hope this is a clear indication of its quality, because the only reviews I could find on it were "THE BEST SHOW EVER" and "WATCH THIS AS A LAST RESORT".

For five bucks, I'm really not expecting a whole lot out of this.

Sailor Moon S: Hearts In Ice - Giving Me The Cold Shoulder

Man. If only I'd decided to push this off until next week, it would have marked the 300th post.

Which is kind of the perfect time to be writing stupidly long things like this? Hour-long specials are, y'know, special after all.

Well, no matter. Christmas is coming early this year folks, because we're going to sit down and tackle this beast, the way God intended: in one, incredibly long and arduous sitting.

Strap in folks. Get you some popcorn and stuff, because this is gonna be a long one.

Dog Days' Episode 1 - A Hero Appears!

"BUT I MADE IT. I SURVIVED YOU AND NOTHING CAN EVER MAKE ME WATCH SEASON TWO." - Me, Dec 2014
 Five months is not long enough to recover from watching this steaming pile of hot buffalo ass. Five years probably isn't enough to wash it all away. But considering I needed something to fill the interim, and it's going to take me a long time to sit through the Sailor Moon movie for season 3...

Well, it was this or... one of those other shows I dropped. *shudders*

I'll take Dog Days' over any of that garbage.

... god why do I do this to myself?
