NightSky’s Tokyo Getaway – Day 1 and 2

A Night View from the Komagata Bridge in Asakusa

Just a while ago I went to Tokyo for a week or so on the last week of April with a few friends as a quick getaway before University started for us.

Episode Review: Suisei no Gargantia Episodes 3 to 5

Sorry that my posts on the various shows I am following are running late. Things got very busy around my house due to some issues with water in our basement and lovely stuff like that. I will try to catch up in the next few weeks, but for now, I’m going to shorten my reviews and include a link to a slide-show with more screenshots at the end. I will work to see if I can embed the slideshow in the next couple of weeks! :)

What started out as sci-fi action show that morphed into a fish-out-of-water story has progressed nicely into a slice of life comedy. It also has a strong philosophical bent and a fairly large amount of entirely harmless fan service. So far, it is one of my favorites of the spring season.
