I know for sure that nobody comes to this website, as the Legend of the Galactic Heroes links have been broken all this time and nobody said anything :(. Anyway, I’m still too busy to do any major updates, but who says I can’t use my internet connection?

I have uploaded:

Bamboo Blade 6-7
Kaiji 7-8
Legend of the Galactic Heroes 11-20

I promise to at least do the Bamboo Blade/Kaiji post updates in the next week, as well as Moyashimon if BSS ever releases it. I’ll also upload more Legend of the Galactic Heroes!

I’ve been busy recently with Thanksgiving break, and since I’m nearing the end of the semester at college, I have not a lot of time due to projects and exams. So, I decided to make up for a lack of updates with just another batch of uploads. I will still continue to post for each episode, but until then you can just download them and view for yourself.

I’ve added:

Charge!! Otokojuku! 1-6
Legend of Galactic Heroes Movie 1
Legend of Galactic Heroes Gaiden 1-3 (OVA)
Legend of Galactic Heroes 1-10 (out of 110 once I upload them)

If you notice the above anime are not new, but more retro/classic, that being retro manliness explosion and classic space opera. I will also at least get up the new Bamboo Blade, Kaiji, and Moyashimon in the next coming week. Also, if you haven’t read the Anime Download page, I will upload Akagi, which is an anime by the creators of Kaiji, so if you like Kaiji you will notice the similarities and possibly like Akagi as well. I’ll also start a few other series that are currently running, including Dragonaut, Kimikiss, and possibly Gundam 00.

Sawaki wonders why they are out searching through dirt and weeds. It turns out, the Professor is collecting worms, who are the natural tillers of the earth, for some experiments.

It wouldn’t be Tales of Agriculture without some fisting.

It’s Agriculture week, so the Seniors are putting on some activities for Sawaki and the other new students. This includes Sawaki unintentionally volunteering himself for the cow anus fisting. Moyashimon wouldn’t be the same without it or some other sick act.

What seems cute on the surface turns out to be something a little… sinister.

The Seniors also worked long and hard to prepare a fine meal for the new students. However, the salad dressing appeared to have something else along for the ride. What seems cute also happens to be what causes food poisoning. So Sawaki, upon seeing them, risks revealing his ability by preventing anyone from eating the food.

The Professor uses his amazing strength to save the day.

The Professor comes into save the day by confirming it with a microscope. Despite his attempt at covering up Sawaki’s ability by saying he told Sawaki to say it, could it be out?

Sayako, the habitual line-stepper.

I’ll admit that Bamboo Blade took a few episodes to get going. At first, I wasn’t sure if it was going to very good. Of course, a show about Kendo had the potential to be interesting. Additionally, mediocre reviews of the manga and a slow moving start made me wary. However, with the addition of newer characters, such as Sayako, and as we learn more about the personalities of the existing characters, Miya for example, the show becomes much more interesting. And of course, there is Tamaki’s great sense of justice brought on by the most amazing show ever, Blade Braver. As such, I think that this is this is the best episode yet.

The episode starts with Sayako wanting to spar with Tamaki, which turns out to be a great blow to her confidence, as well as her head See above figure. As it turns out, the club is going to be having a practice match with Kenzo’s team today, so they are all waiting in anticipation.

Kojiro, their sensei, encourages Miya-Miya to do her best, even though she lacks the formal training necessary to win. That doesn’t seem to bother her, however, as long as she can inflict some pain. I much prefer the real Miya-Miya to her dainty false exterior, hopefully someone opens up this can of worms soon, since apparently Kojiro is already aware of it.

YOU SHALL NOT PASS

Sayako seems to be suffering most of the emotional abuse, as Kojiro’s explosive encouragement for her not to lose in the practice match adds to her previous loss by the hands of justice.

Everyone is pumped and ready for battle.

Kenzo has a bit of trouble getting his five girls together, encountering problems such as nausia, panic attacks, unconsciousness, and perhaps the diabeetis. This must be very beneficial for our friends, as they happen to be lacking one of the five girls necessary for competition. Who will be the fifth?

Anyway, here is episode five:

I capture the most inert moments.

Things are really getting tense as the remaining time drops to less than twenty minutes. As we know, Kaiji and the two fairies he is with each have two stars. They also have like thirty rocks and five scissors. However, Kaiji has an idea. After taking three of his groups stars, Kaiji convinces Kitami to relinquish his 34 papers as well. Now, it’s up to Kaiji to just wait for the opportune moment to strike.

Opportunity strikes. Will Kaiji abandon his newfound friends for a chance at survival?

However, problem strikes. All of the remaining players are refusing to play, as suffering from prior scamming had made them mistrustful. Funai, who early on had scammed Kaiji out of two of his stars, comes up with a plan to get the remaining players to agree to play. Everyone would reshuffle their cards and they would be redistributed. Alas, this could mean the destruction of Kaiji and his group, who had bought out all of the rocks and paper. What will he do?

Notes: If you notice I decided to start shrinking my screenshots, so they won’t take up so much of the screen. Also, people with smaller (bah) resolutions won’t have issues with the layout.

I would just like to let everyone know that I have preemptively uploaded two new anime: Bartender and Mononoke.

And since I’m to lazy to type up synopsis and take screenshots for each episode at this moment, I have just included the links for all of the episodes at the Downloads page. Eventually, I may add the posts for each when I decide to watch them all myself.

Anyway, that brings us up to five whole big animes on the website. I will also be uploading the entire seasons of Akagi (by the makers of Kaiji), and then Legend of the Galactic Heroes (a shwing classic space opera), if Dreamhost doesn’t cause my site to implode on itself by then.

Additionally, be sure to attempt to post on the forums, as I may be more inclined to add content when we actually get visitors. Also, if you want to be a writer for this site, we pay in lolcat images.

The third installment of Tales of Agriculture subjects us again to more interesting facts surrounding fermentation, which appears to be a large motif, given the subject matter of the show. This time its a skate fish (or ray), and Sawaki yet again appears to bear the brunt of the stench.

I’m really enjoying the show so far. It’s fairly laid back, the facts and subjects are interesting, and who could resist this:

A day in the life of sake brewing.

The art and animation quality of this show is also excellent. Even just looking at the characters is enjoyable.

Kaiji and his G-unit are still in financial (in terms of stars) trouble, as they have been for the last four episodes. They are down to one star each, and a large pile of rocks mixed with a few other cards. They only have 45 or so minutes left before the game ends.

They’ve been approached by these guys, and through some amazing persuasiveness, Kaiji convinces them to play him, for the ripe sum of 3 stars. It’s do or die in this episode, so hold on to your Japanese boob balls.

TENTACLES

At first I was going to attempt to psychoanalyze this episode, making some reference to outward appearance and mental state, but I realized that the most complex idea within this episode is that Miya-Miya likes hitting people, perhaps as a result of abuse as a child. Yet, she acts completely opposite to her personality because of her love for Dan-kun. Additionally, I realized that I can’t even spell psycology(sp). Enjoy Sayako’s hairdo.

Kirino as usual provides the most exhilarating screenshots. MOE MOE MOE MOE MOE.

Miya’s real personality leaks out for a short moment in this revealing facial expression.

Overall, the focus of this episode is on Miya and Sayako. If you remember from the last episode, Miya is somewhat blunt with Sayako. Sayako returns to the club while Miya is training, and Miya avoids her, due to embarrassment or guilt or otherwise…

I pick the best screenshots so you don’t have to.

Episode continues from where it left off, leaving our friend Kaiji and his two scumbag companions up shit avenue without a bus ticket. Things are looking grim for the three, with only five stars between them and approximately no cards.

However, Kaiji manages to come up with another interesting idea. It seems that if he wasn’t a loser he’d be a good chess player. Hint: There are no scissors or paper in that pile of cards he is holding. The plan seems foolproof, but Kaiji has a sinking feeling in the pit of his stomach (and we know how those usually end up).
