Okay, so these are a little old news. But I still felt like posting them. First off we have a promo for One Piece Episode of Nami the remake of the most influential arc in the history of One Piece.
I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm pretty excited for this. Though I expect it will be a while before we get this special outside of Japan. What with the rights probably being different from the TV and Movie rights. I'm also excited to see Nojiko, my cartoon crush from when I first got into One Piece, animated again. And while I'm not the biggest fan of the modern art style, the animation looks crisp and fluid. Much better than the average TV animation.
Up next we have the first teaser trailer for the Blue Exorcist movie.
It's not much to go off of, but I'm curious to see where they go with this. I've found that generally anime movies aren't the greatest, but I do think the industry has come far enough that we've been getting more good than bad. And as long as the writers for this movie aren't the ones responsible for the beach filler episode and the end of the anime, then we're in business.
And finally, a teaser for the Jojo's Bizarre Adventure adaptation.
I only just recently started reading Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. I'm up to the first issue of part three, and after loving the first two parts I can't wait to see what happens. Part three seems to have been getting all the love, with being released in the States, and getting and OVA series. Great to see the first part getting some love too. Maybe if we get lucky this new series will attract some more attention and we'll get to see the first two parts, and following parts of Jojo published in the US. The trailer itself works very well to play up the hype for this project, with a countdown of the eight parts of Jojo, perhaps suggesting that the new project will cover the entire series. An ambitious project to say the least. The little bit of animation we do get looks pretty decent, if not as smooth as I'd hope. We'll have to wait for more footage before passing any real judgement. Either way, I'm excited.

Anime Reviews: Blue Exorcist Episode 24 - Satan's Spawn
Introduction
Satan proves to be a rather difficult foe. He's not infamous for nothing. But the Esquires will stop at nothing to take him down.
Our heroes.

Anime Reviews: Blue Exorcist Episode 23 - Truth
Introduction
Out of all the episodes of Blue Exorcist I have seen, none have puzzled me more than this one. Because this episode goes so far as to do something that just makes no sense. When I say it makes no sense, I mean it makes absolutely no sense.

Anime Reviews: Blue Exorcist Episode 22 - Demon Hunting
When Rin is woken up by Kuro, he realizes that Yukio never came back to their room. He is about to text him, only to realize that he is about to be late for class.

Anime Reviews: Blue Exorcist Episode 21 - Secret Garden
Introduction
Blue Exorcist has gone the filler route, but episode 21 has made me want to stick around. Even though this is the only series I will be reviewing for a while, I am having more trouble catching up than Derek is with his own reviews which consists of this entire blog. I'm still trying to get used to this new lifestyle.

Anime Reviews: Blue Exorcist Episode 20 - Mask
This episode is the first part of a filler arc. Right now though, it looks just like any other kind of filler episode but if any of you have paid attention to what has been going on with Yukio, be prepared for a surprise at the end. I'm still getting used to this so bear with me on the plot summary.

Anime Reviews: Blue Exorcist Episode 19 - An Ordinary Day
Introduction
Finally, a filler that's nothing but true filler, as opposed to trying to have a larger story. For those who may have been spinning from the last episode, this episode will be a relief to you. For those that think I was harsh in my last review, that is just how I felt about it. This episode's title sums up what it is, just an ordinary day.
An ordinary day of hilarity. -The Editor

Anime Reviews: Blue Exorcist Episode 18 - Friends
Having regained his confidence, Rin is attacked by a strange black demon spirit. This episode is the first of many in a series of filler.
Editor's Note: Yay...

Anime Reviews: Blue Exorcist Episode 16 - The Wager
Introduction
At the beginning of act two tensions run high after the shocking reveal of Rin's powers. It is a nice change of pace from hiding the protagonist's powers until the near end of the series.

Anime Reviews: Blue Exorcist Episode 15 - Act of Kindness
Introduction
I would have to classify this episode as the last one in act one. Poopy has been splattered all over the ceiling, the status quo has been broken and Rin's secret has been revealed to his friends.
Anime Reviews: Blue Exorcist Episode 14 - A Fun Camping Trip
Introduction
Normally I would say this is the start of a new arc, except Blue Exorcist can't be broken down into arcs quite so readily. Instead I will say that this is the beginning of the end of act one of the series. The excrement has hit the proverbial fan, and we now move on to the second act.
Anime Reviews: Blue Exorcist Episode 13 - Proof
Introduction
Surprisingly little happens this episode, but a lot of background story is laid. Rin declares his secondary, more immediate goal, and the resident sexy chick is added to the cast. Also, I have very few usable screen shots for this review. Most of them will contain cartoon breasts. Just watch, my page views are going to sky rocket now.
Anime Reviews: Blue Exorcist Episode 12 - A Game of Tag
Introduction
I try not to ship. There is no faster way to ruin a new series than to start creating artificial relationships between characters. This is not an easy thing to do when the writer goes out of her way to make the male and female leads so darn cute!
Oh yeah, and there's some badass fighting.
Anime Reviews: Blue Exorcist Episode 11 - Demon of the Deep
Introduction
I consider myself a nice person. I'm not quite snarky enough to consistently write bad reviews for your entertainment. And really I feel that my role is more to tell people about good shows, books, and comics they should be watching or reading. But sometimes I find my hand forced, and the full force of my snark comes to bear.
Also, since I like you, I'm not going to torture you with a long plot summary before I tear into this episode.

Anime Reviews: Blue Exorcist Episode 10 - Black Cat
Introduction
I've let myself get way behind on my anime reviews, and now school has started. This is not a satisfactory state of events. As such chances are that you will be seeing a sudden influx of anime reviews. I'll be keeping them short, since that way I'll be able to get a lot more done.
I've also been reading a design book for one of my classes, so I've been getting a lot of ideas for revamping my site. Hopefully the changes to how I write my reviews will make things a little easier for you, the readers.

Anime Reviews: Blue Exorcist Episode 09 - Memories
Turns out the ghoul attack was just an exam, now Rin and his classmates are all wondering if they did well enough to pass. But Yukio can't help but wonder, Neuhaus was acting a little too realistically, like he was really trying to kill Rin.

Anime Reviews: Blue Exorcist Episode 08 - Now a Certain Man was Sick
After an argument during class between Ryuji and Izumo gets out of hand, the class are all refined to the dorms to make up for the fight. Even thought most of them weren't involved, Yukio tells them that exorcists have to fight in teams, and that any conflict among them affects the whole class. After he goes off on an assignment the group are all left alone together. Then the lights go out and they find themselves attacked by the ghoul from last episode.

Anime Reviews: Blue Exorcist Episode 07 - Flock of Plovers
When Shiemi tries to make friends with the other two girls in the exorcist cram school, things backfire a little when Izumo Kamiki takes advantage of her and basically turns Shiemi into a personal servant. Not that Shiemi minds, she's just glad to help out her friend. Rin on the other hand notices how Izumo is treating Shiemi, and he doesn't like it.
