New poll: How many episodes do you like in your anime?

Hi all,

I’ve put up a new poll for all of you to vote on. Basically as I was yawning through episode 41 of Eureka 7 on Cartoon Network, I got to thinking about how that show could’ve been so much better if it was less episodes. Personally, I’ve found that I like them shorter. But, that’s not to say that I don’t like sequels. Nanoha is a great example of short series that held its own through its original run and then came back with a really good sequel with an equally short run. That said, many ongoing series just get to be too much after a while. Yakitate! Japan, Keroro Gunso, Bleach, just to name a few. It’s not that I don’t like them, but I go on overload after a while with really long series.

So tell me what you think.

Winter season

We’re over a month into winter season and I think I’ve watched maybe three new shows. To top that off, I’m not really sure that I want to write so much about any of them. Aside from Nodame Cantabile, nothing is really interesting me. I will say this…how do you get me to watch a loli show like Manabi Straight?
