The three sisters Ai, Mai and Mii, together with their ferret Unagi and the robotic maid Mea, live in a timetraveling mansion. They're hopping through time in search for "The One", someone who could tell them what they're really looking for.

The girls each have special powers, and Ai has the ability to speak with the Popotan (which is their nonsense way of saying dandelion, correctly called 'tanpopo'). Everywhere they stop, they find a patch of Popotan, or even a single flower (really, people put dandelions in pots? They're a weed where I come from... :-] ) that Ai sit down and have a little chat with, asking for information about where they can find The One.

The other special powers are Mii's healing "magic" and Mai's, well, atlethics. (Really, all she does is jump real high. A sucky power if you ask me)..

The anime is based on a hentai visual-novel game, and while there aren't any sexually explicit scenes in the series, there's still a lot of nudity. Mostly upper body shots and all portrayed in really good taste though, so no need to be alarmed. :-P

As the story progresses, and as the sisters travel through time, they encounter a lot of people and make many new friends. Regrettably, as there are many sad goodbye's. The second half of the twelve episode long series gets really sad, and by the time I got to episode ten I had a lump in my throat and I struggled to keep the tears back. (Really, I'm such a softie... :'-] )

Overall, this was great! I absolutely loved it and would recommend it. There's comedy, drama, fantasy (and for those who're into it, ecchi), so most everyone is sure to find something they'd like. :-]

A mixture of soft and hard, dark and light; Opeth returns with their ninth studio album, Watershed. Well, so far only a leaked version of it..

So, is it any good? Well, yes, simply put, although I find a few passages I'm having hard to take to heart. It feels as if the keyboardist isn't really needed; what he adds to the mash could be taken away and the result would be just as good. Spite that, the album is enjoyable and having listened through it only once or twice, I have found a few favourites already.

Opeth delivers, not 100% but close.

What caught my eye was the eyepatch that Lucia is wearing (no pun intended), and I thought the show had something to do with pirates. I was wrong, but it turned out the eyepatch covered something more than just a wounded eye typical for pirate eyepatches..

Venus Versus Virus starts out pretty slowly, but it soon picks up and after two, three episodes you're caught up in the lives of Sumire and Lucia, the two girls facing the forces of evil; a demon breed simply called Virus.

While the ending was a bit of a disappointment, the overall experience is enjoyable - and you wish the serie would go on for longer than twelve episodes. Also, you wish there'd be some action between Sumire and Lucia; the tension is already present, go grab on to each other!

Venus Versus Virus delivers. ^_^

There's no easy way to describe this serie. It's an orgy of nudity, blood and gore, mixed together with horror, comedy, drama, romance, action, science-fiction, and suspense, just to name a few, the list goes on..

The first few minutes of the first episode is probably the bloodiest I have ever laid my eyes on, and contrary to what you may believe, it's not a bad thing. The story gradually takes a "more" serious tone (meaning less gore and/or nudity) and the viewer get more emotionally attached to the characters, and we slowly, slowly, crawl down under their skin and discover how they all connect.

It's been a long time since a show has moved me the way Elfen Lied did, and even though the ending was a bit "unsatisfactory" (seems like all shows I watch end in this manner) I have to praise it. Elfen Lied delivers big time. ^____^

A dangerous girl with guns in a city where you can trust no one - and that's not even half of it...

Revy, the girl that comes packing, is a smuggler together with Dutch and Benny, and they roam the Southeast Asian seas on the PT boat Black Lagoon. In one of their hits they end up with a hostage - Rock - who eventually joins the party. Time for fun!

Lots of wild gunfights, almost-non-stop action and a storyline that's really entertaining, interresting and fun. I'm wishing there was more material in the Manga though, to make a third season - the second season of the anime ends in a really nasty cliffhanger.. I want answers, damnit!

Black Lagoon delivers. ^__^
