I can see why, because the manga itself is only one volume. Minekura has expressed interest in trying to write more of the manga, but things here and there have prevented her from doing that. |

That's really creppy you know that? Chi's Sweet Home is simply a show about a kitten named Chi and his adventures in his new home. Though episode five is slightly disturbing, compared to the show with a fox girl, Chi's Sweet home is much better. The only bad part about Chi's Sweet Home is the shortness of each episode, at least 20 minutes would be much better. Also, I reallly wish Chi received more the screen time, the owners are taking too much screen time. Though the opening theme song is awesome, probably one of the best opening theme songs I've heard in a long time. |

Episode 3 of Chi's Sweet Home spoiler[in which Chi gets a bath] has to be one of the funniest things I've seen for some time.

Uh, is that spoiler tag REALLY necessary? That's like saying that Chi. a kitten is actually spoiler[really cute]. |

That's a really lame comparison. Your website's "preview" was merely information about upcoming anime. Nothing wrong with that sort of preview, in fact it's very good information to be posting. But comparing it to this article is a case of apples and oranges, and trying to play the one-up-manship card on such a disparate comparison is, imho, lame. Information about the various spring 2008 anime have been in our encyclopedia for, in some cases, months now. So no, I don't think ANN is playing catch up to anyone. As was previously stated, our preview's are actual opinions about the shows based on having seen at least 1 episode. This preview was posted 3 days after the Kanokon premiered in Japan. I'm certain some people got their previews up before us, and that's fine, because they aren't so crude as to come in here and say "hey look we did it first" even when they did. -t |

Not sure if anyone has brought it up, but Carlo's link isn't working. I think it's missing a sub-directory number, as it just goes back to the main page. Unless the reviews just aren't up yet.

I encountered that issue as well. Maybe a technical issue perhaps? Anyway, I really want to read Mr. Carlo's review of Chi's Sweet Home. |

Yeah, I'm having the same problem. Quickly, I want to be informed!
Add: Agreed, Westlo, so do I. Although I almost want to see what he has to say about Kanokon more, just for the sheer comic value. Last edited by Big Hed on Tue Apr 08, 2008 11:42 am; edited 1 time in total |

I also can't get Carlos Santos's reviews up. |

You can get to Carlo's by adding "/5" to the URL of the main article, but I think the link needs to be fixed.

Odd, I tried exactly that without success. Nevermind, now that the link is up anyway, thank you Zac.
And so Kanokon's fate is sealed as one of the worst shows of the season, I think. Chi's Sweet Home sounds fun, though. Maybe I'll check an episode or two out. |

Thank you Zac! Awesome review Mr. Santos, thank you for reviewing Chi's Sweet Home. Only a excellent reviewer such as yourself could review Chi's Sweet Home and actually give this series a great review. The manga version of the Kanokon is much worse, there is much more nudity and creppyness. Good luck and thank you for this week's Right Turn Only, I am sure this week's column will be excelllent as always, if not beter. |

Btw with all the it's an echii version of spice and wolf comments... shouldn't you check if the Kanokon light novels predate Spice and Wolf.. since Kanokon has 11 light novels compared to Spice and Wolf's 7... (of course Kanokon light novels could easily be released more frequently!)
Oh btw just a tip for Wagaya no Oinari-sama, this show does predate Spice and Wolf since for the Dengeki Light Novel Prize it received the gold prize in 2003 while Spice and Wolf got the silver prize in 2005. (Baccano! is the only other light novel on that winners list I've seen turned into an anime, was a co-gold winner in 2002). And the Itazura na Kiss manga came before the majority of shows you can list you think it's similar too. Last edited by Westlo on Tue Apr 08, 2008 12:16 pm; edited 2 times in total |
