So that series is over. And no one kills any of the girls, so that's one big fear about the series unrealized.

Reports are that it starts semi-serious but rapidly descends into farce and fan service, and ends with an incomprehensible trainwreck.

Which makes it sound like Strike Witches, actually. I may give it a go, even with a gender bender main character (ick).

But the only version of it posted to BakaBT so far is 480p and I'd rather wait for a 720p version. (And anyway, that 480p torrent hasn't been approved yet.) Meanwhile, TokyoToshokan seems to be dead; every time I try to access it, it times out.

Alas. There's nothing I really want to watch right now. I just rewatched Realbout High School, and it's really growing on me. I would say now that it's the second best Gonzo series I've watched, behind only Vandread. I'd put it well above Strike Witches and Saki. I also rewatched Summer Wars, and that is an awesome movie. (We need a cleaner, larger version of it!)

But I look at the stuff going by on TokyoTosho (except today, since I can't reach it) and none of it is worth bothering with.

Well, two more weeks until Chu-bra. (Am I the only one who is looking forward to it?) And the next episode of Railgun should be out today, if only I can find it.

UPDATE: Regarding Camphor, Pete comments.

UPDATE: TokyoTosho is back with a place-holder page, which is encouraging. They didn't get sued out of existence or hauled away in chains.
