Catch Up with FALL! January 15-16 Anime-Planet’s Monthly Marathon

It's that time for another Monthly Marathon Event called Catch Up, with Anime-Planet hosted by me. Click on the image below to see the anime list. It's all Fall 2010 anime so if you haven't watched everything you wanted to now is the perfect time to do it as there will be people around to chat with!

I've been hosting these events over on Anime-Planet for a whole year now and I gotta say it's been a blast. If you haven't checked out Anime-Planet in general you should as it is always growing! It's a great place to keep all your watched, watching, etc anime in check so you always know what you are doing with each show you watch. You can love and hate anime characters and even voice actors. New features and improvements are added pretty often and it generally doesn't take that long for a minor request to be filled. The newest feature is anime badges which are similar to X-box ones that you can unlock with certain anime that are watched or other random accomplishments. Tis all very fun stuff and more of those are going to be added soon. If you are the winner of this event you'll even win one!

Happy viewing!

Satoshi Kon Tribute September 24-27 Anime-Planet: Monthly Marathon

Along with Anime-Planet, and since I'm busy this month I've passed on the responsibility to my partner on AP for this event, TheOmnipotentLemur, this Monthly Marathon Event is a tribute to Satoshi Kon. We all mourned the day he was taken from us and he'll be missed greatly. Click on the image below to see the anime list.

The only anime that Satoshi Kon did that I haven't seen is Paranoia Agent so I'll be watching that for sure. I'm excited for it since I've heard nothing but good things about it. He had a small part (Episode 5) to do with JoJo's Bizarre Adventure so I'll probably watch that too. I think it's going to be a lot of violence and action. Texhnolyze is on my want to watch list to finish before the year ends so I'm going for it. I have mixed feelings on it though. And of course there is Monster. A series I've been trying to start ALL YEAR but just can't bring myself to actually push play. I load it into the player and end up watching something else. XD I probably won't end up watching it yet again, but who knows!

I highly recommend watching any of the movies on this list. Satoshi Kon had a part in all of them and they are all truly amazing stories. I might just sit through Millennium Actress again since I think that is my favourite. It's really hard to choose between them all.

School’s Out! June 25-28 Anime-Planet: Monthly Marathon

Along with Anime-Planet, hosted by myself , this Monthly Marathon Event is School's Out! Click on the image below to see the anime list.

Teachers love teaching students!

I'm going to finish watching Tenshi na Konamaiki because I started it way back when I went to Anime Boston and never picked it back up again. I was going to watch it more on the way to and fro from Anime North (post coming for that in a few days I swear) but I actually ended up sleeping the entire time we were driving. I do remember being totally blown away by how good this series was in those first 15 episodes I did manage to get through. I can't wait to watch more!

Manly/Mecha MAY-HEM! May 20-23 Anime-Planet: Monthly Marathon

IT'S MAY-HEM!

Along with Anime-Planet, hosted by myself , this Monthly Marathon Event is GAR! Click on the image below to see the anime list.

G Gundam! A perfect mix of Manly and Mecha!

I'm going to tackle another one of the Gundam titles. Turn A Gundam. I've heard nothing but good things about this series and I can't wait to dive into it. I'm going to be watching it with a buddy over on Anime-Planet too which shall make it all the more fun.

If people haven't seen Toriko yet I highly encourage to give it a watch. It's a half an hour OVA about a man who hunts for rare "food" so he can cook it and have a delicious meal! Very awesome, very hilarious.

Catch Up with WINTER! April 17-18 Anime-Planet’s Monthly Marathon

It's that time for another Monthly Marathon Event called Catch Up. With Anime-Planet hosted by me (again ) Click on the image below to see the anime list.

Smoochin in the snow. Good way to keep warm!

I plan on catching up as much as I can with Gintama. Especially since it's the only show I haven't seen on the list. I love the series to bits and think this shall be a good time to re-watch it all right from the beginning.
