The foregone conclusion when one doesn't hear from a blogger is that they're out of the blogosphere. I'm not. If anything I've been more interested than ever in the status of my site. Unfortunately however, I have precious little to report to you, the loyal viewer. I've played about 5 chapters of Sekien no Inganock(which is brilliant), I've watched a few episodes of Real Drive and Mushishi, as well as Cat Soup(Which seemed pretty original and cool). That's about all though. I haven't watched a single episode from the new season yet, I really haven't found anything lately to go crazy about, with one exception:
Mononoke. My god, I know this show is old but I would have added it to my 'must-see' list with no questions asked RIGHT AFTER watching it the first time. It's just that good. Religion plays a heavy part in it, and if I could make any allusions, I'd call it 'Ookami for buddhism'. That wouldn't be accurate, as Mononoke also incorporates many non-buddhist elements, but that's the essense of it. The show is heavily atmospheric, and takes its time telling a narrative over the course of one to four episodes.
Regardless, my plans are to eventually watch Mushishi, Porco Rosso, and then get on to some of the winter anime that interest me the most. You can look forward to it if you want, but my favorite thing is to disappoint people so don't look forward to it too much, and don't let me know that you're looking forward to it.
