As Ender mentioned last time, I’ve been on a slight hiatus from blogging this week. This is mostly due to the fact that I have been undergoing intense Kaleido training in the Grand Canyon. That or I have been marathoning Kaleido Star during every waking hour that was not spent toiling at work or playing FFXI. Ender and I both agree that at least a little time should be spent blogging on some of the older (and sometimes more obscure) series that may have missed the surge in anime blogging. In this spirit, I will probably start posting about Kaleido Star and also Fruits Basket soon. I had not seen either one prior to two weeks ago, and both are excellent series.
Kaleido Star, especially, is a series that is very dear to my heart now. When Ender first told me about it, I thought “A series about a circus…. lamexor!” However, it is very difficult to really put into words how incredibly cool this concept is. It amazes me how few people even know about this series. I have yet to see anyone cover the first half of the series, and so I will be starting at the beginning and probably covering up till 26. Ender posted on the latter half of KS already, but he said it would be easiest if I just replaced his posts with mine to avoid weird archiving issues. I’m still not sold on that plan, so I still have some decisions to make about that. In the meantime, to keep the archiving logical, I may adjust some of the old timestamps on existing KS posts, just so the archive will be in order by episode.

OMG, this layout is outstanding! And now we both have little shadow sidebars on our sites! My kleptomaniac code-stealing hands are tingling (^_^)
Sounds like a good plan to me!
That’s why I wrote so much about Figure 17 way back in February. Such a good show (anybody else seen it?), but not much publicity out there about it.
Anyways.. yeah, I’m with David. cool layout
