Yuki Nagato Swimsuit No Beach
April 30th, 2008
I’m used to being surprised by something every time I open the door to the clubroom, but I wasn’t expecting this, not that I’m complaining. Miss Nagato in a swimsuit, now that’s a surprise I can live with on a daily basis. Anyway, I expected Haruhi to be doing all sorts of things around Miss Nagato, since after all, this wasn’t the type of thing Yuki would wear just out of the blue — “blue,” she said — but Yuki was alone in the clubroom.

Tsuruya on Valentine’s Day
February 14th, 2008
“So wait,” said Tsuruya. “You’re posting pictures of an eight inch statue on your blog for Valentine’s Day?” Tsuruya didn’t earn the nickname LOL-tan for nothing. I’d probably be laughing too if I wasn’t the one posting the pictures. Anyway, Tsuruya laughed for like five minutes, so I was able to take pictures and change backgrounds around her.

Ending Haruhi in the Rain
December 18th, 2007
Hype is a giant killer. The more furious the proclamations of greatness the more likely the legend will be dead on arrival. A few days ago I finished The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, its battered and bloody, but it survived hype’s special attack and was a fun show for me to watch.
Yuki Nagato
September 8th, 2007
Yuki Nagato, the resident alien observing Haruhi Suzumiya, has some pretty strange ideas about comfortable living. Her apartment is almost completely empty save for a table and an endless supply of tea. There aren’t even any books in her apartment. Strange. Anyway, I shouldn’t have expected anything different when she decided to take me her summer home. Other than a white picket fence, there wasn’t anything there but a trio of baby chicks. For an alien taking orders from a supreme data entity, she’s a few columns short of a spreadsheet.
Con Highlights and Loot
July 24th, 2007
Not another Otakon 2007 post! Last Otakon post, promise. For all the things at the con that could have been run better, I still had a good time and was glad I made the trip. Most of the panels were amusing or interesting in some way and blowing lots of money on useless stuff in the dealer’s room is always fun.

Panel Highlights
The most entertaining panels for me each year are the English voice actor panels. Far fewer people this year asked the annoying question about how to get into voice acting, so the panels really stayed fun most of the time. The guests could just tell stories and be funny. There’s always a few creepy questions asked by obsessed fans that earn a collective what the hell, but it’s funny to talk about it afterwards.
