...and hot on the heels of the Rurouni Kenshin movie (by which I meant the live-action adaptation from earlier this year, if it wasn't clear from my review of it)

I had no idea there was a live-action Rurouni Kenshin movie~! Went and watched it as soon as I read your post... it was pretty darn good~! also heard that there's gonna be a movie sequel with plans for some kind of tv series somewhere down the road~ should be cool to see how that turns out if and when it does happen

Can't wait to get back home and start watching anime again. I am on vacation for 2 weeks and it has already been 1. On Friday I go back home and I'll be happy again. I had to rely on manga on my phone but since I read too quickly and finished the manga I was reading I am now very bored. This is the longest I've been away from anime since I started. The second longest was when I visited Europe for a week. Cmon week, end already.

All I want is my Jinchu arc. Get as much of the original production staff from the TV series to work on the show, as much of the original voice acting staff as well (obviously use the new Saito, with the old one having passed), and finish off the series the way it should have been finished off. I want more than a post-it note on a doorway and thirty seconds of fight footage (if that).

Started watching Hunter X Hunter 2011 sometime last week and I've already caught up to the latest episode (61). Never saw the original series but this is Awesome so far.. great characters and some awesome villains.

Today I'm starting on Psycho-Pass~ saw the first episode and pretty interested in this sci-fi setting. Hopefully it doesn't disappoint.

I've started watching Valkyria Chronicles and I'm enjoying the hell out of it, nice to see a war genre piece done like this and I've liked the game since I grabbed it via blind purchase a few years ago. I highly recommend this one.

I got the Evangelion 2.22 blu-ray a couple weeks ago.

Holy hell, I was not expecting a lot of what happened. They made Shinji (and Eva on the whole) a lot more awesome at the end there.

Since my last post I finished watching all 4 seasons of Natsume Yuujinchou, all of Kimi ni Todoke, Hyouka, caught up with the latest eps of Naruto Shippuden, and most recently started watching One Piece~ up to episode 121 now

I got the Evangelion 2.22 blu-ray a couple weeks ago.

Eva 3.0 is coming out on blu ray in Japan in April.. hopefully that means we fan subs shortly after and the US release later this year

I finished up Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood recently and it got pretty strong near the final seasons, I'm really impressed with it.

Well I did end up finishing Chobits... the manga version, that is. Surprisingly I thought is was very good. Four and a half stars out of five.

I gave up watching Kore wa Zombie Desu ka? Of the Dead about halfway through the season. Maybe I should finish it, I liked I better than the first one.

I also started reading Karin, but I've been delaying on that. Pretty good so far.

Also randomly started watching My Little Sister Can't Be This Cute! with my brother. Finished episode 3, funnier and less creepy than I thought.

Also bought the first Cowboy Bebop OST on CD, because everyone loves it.

And that's basically how I've been.

Sword Art Online started strong for the first half and fell down a ravine once the second world and brother/sister complex was introduced

Robotics;Notes was pretty good. Interested in seeing how the blonde girl gets dubbed, her leet speak and waifus are going to be pretty hard to translate

Fairy Tail is on hiatus and that sucks. Best show

This season of shows is pretty solid. There's a lot of appealing art and characters - I had several options to choose from for my avatar. Date A Live gets specific mention after the first half of the season for being an entertaining pseudo-date sim. Honorable mentions to Hataraku Maou-sama's stupidly awesome faces, Yuyushiki for cute girls that do Google searches and other cute things, and Photo Kano's strange yet appealing softcore ecchi

Oh, and Aku no Hana's absolutely hideous art style
