Lucky Star. <\/strong>A story about nothing and everything. This totally got my heart ablaze especially with Konata’s Otakon (Otaku Spirit). The humor is simple although you do need some otaku knowledge to get past Konata’s jokes. I cannot stress enough how much i enjoyed watching this and how this has changed my karaoke habits forever. Must I add that I love it so much I preordered the nendoroid konata? Oh yeah. love.<\/p>\n Darker than Black. <\/strong>Bones struck gold with this one for me. It was a good well paced story with enough action to keep the fanboys going. I personally loved Hei’s team and how they stick together to the end. This really isn’t a Moe selection, but Mao’s got enough Moe for all of us. :3<\/p>\n Moyashimon.<\/strong> Bacterias talking and fermenting. I’ve been hooked on fermented items this year so to see the bacterias behind just makes my heart flutter so. I cannot resist Oryzae and for 3 months, I was wishing I had that talent to see them. But sadly I can’t. But thank god for Moyashimon. :3 Love the manga too. The covers rock.<\/p>\n Kekkaishi.<\/strong> I’ve been loving the manga for some while and now that the anime is out, I’m totally hooked every week. I love the story, the kinship between the brothers and the families that nurture and protect them. The story is well paced and I see that there’s no rush to follow to the manga (Oh yeah! No filler arcs… yet.) And if you played the DS game, oh darn it’s wicked!!<\/p>\n Sayonara Zetsubou-sensei.<\/strong> I actually started following Shonen magazine because of this. But yeah, a manic-depressive suicidal teacher and a plethora of lovely students to his call and beckon is worth getting desperate over. I enjoy this series in the sick and twisted humor way.<\/p>\n Lovely Complex.<\/strong> Ah~ High School Manzai Love. <3 <3\u00c2\u00a0 Seto no Hanayome.<\/strong> Yakuza mermaids. What more can I ask for? :3 Gintama. <\/strong>Oi. This came out last year, so why am I pimping it? Because it deserves pimping. yo. And I’m using that as a lame excuse to place this image in my website.<\/p>\n All in all. It was a great year. :3 A very fun year, I might add. :3\u00c2\u00a0 There wasn’t enough drama but there was lots of comedies this year. Or maybe I was really just choosing the comedies. :3 I hope next year would be just as fun! I look forward to next year! :3<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" And so I round things up, just like before, about the fun things and the good things that I read […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":365,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1],"tags":[107,99,108,61,106,94,56,109,105],"class_list":["post-87","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog","tag-darker-than-black","tag-gintama","tag-kekkaishi","tag-lovely-complex","tag-lucky-star","tag-moyashimon","tag-nodame-cantabile","tag-seto-no-hanayome","tag-year-in-review"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.punkednoodle.com\/champloo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/12\/2151303227_4b55400a3d_o.jpg?fit=500%2C200","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p26e5y-1p","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":81,"url":"http:\/\/www.punkednoodle.com\/champloo\/2007\/12\/31\/11-welcome-to-nhk\/","url_meta":{"origin":87,"position":0},"title":"#11 – Welcome to N.H.K","author":"khursten","date":"December 31, 2007","format":false,"excerpt":"Welcome to N.H.K (NHK\u00e3\u0081\u00ab\u00e3\u201a\u02c6\u00e3\u0081\u2020\u00e3\u0081\u201c\u00e3\u0081\u009d) Published by Kadokawa Shoten Serialized in Shounen Ace Translated by Tokyopop A new year's about to start so let's talk about a manga about starting things anew.
