A Duck, a Girl, a Ballerina for Chrismas

Monday, December 24th, 2007

Tomorrow I’ll be posting what will hopefully be the first in a long-running series of episode analysis on the music in the series Princess Tutu.

Because of the amount of time which goes into writing one of these, I hope to write at least one a month. (I spent three hours on tomorrow’s post, and that’s not counting the time originally spent documenting the music!) With 26 episodes, this can easily take over two years to complete. Maybe I’ll get a boost of energy and do a few at a time on some occasions? If you find this information useful, be sure to comment on tomorrow’s post and let me know, and maybe it’ll give me the motivation to invest the time into another one.

New Category: Wallpaper

Monday, October 22nd, 2007

I’ve been wanting to add a wallpaper section for wallpapers I make, but I haven’t actually gotten around to making any wallpapers. When there are so many great wallpapers from official sites for animations and video games, it’s hard to come up with a reason to make one oneself, especially when one has no talent for graphic design.

Word-Learning Posts

Saturday, September 22nd, 2007

In my first post about learning Japanese while watching Japanese animation, I wrote I may consider documenting episodes where I hear a verb, how far into the episode, and the situation, maybe with a screenshot. While this would be a lot of work which might have no practical benefit to myself or others, I’ve decided to give it a try, after all.
