• HATE FUN 2004! The Melody of Oblivion

  
  AWESOME ENGINE — Authority: 145
  JC Staff/GAINAX production that amusingly abbreviates to MOO. I know I’ve seen some of this, yet recall nothing. That says it all I think. Standard catalogue padding.

• HATE FUN 2004! Doki Doki School Hours

  
  AWESOME ENGINE — Authority: 145
  Another show like Smash Hit that goes for the Adult-Who-Looks-Like-A-Child gimmick, though this isn’t as tawdry as m.o.e.’s output. A more likely origin for it being animated is that JC Staff were looking for similar material as Azumanga Daioh to adapt, and Tamami Momose’s high school comedy fits that bill. ...

• HATE FUN 2004! Midori Days

  
  AWESOME ENGINE — Authority: 145
  High concept manga – girl wishes so hard to be boy’s girlfriend she turns into his right hand – gets a merely OK anime. Looking at my old livejournal there was clearly something about episode 5 that I didn’t like, as I stopped writing about it after episode 4. I think it was that they were shuffling stuff ...

• HATE FUN 2004! Marshmallow Times

  
  AWESOME ENGINE — Authority: 145
  One of those shows that I had no idea had existed until now. Studio Comet veteran Hiroshi Fukutomi directs, along with much of the same design staff as the early Studio Comet productions. However much of the actual production appears to be from Seoul Movie. Based on a gag manga from Lun Lun Yamamoto about kid ...

• HATE FUN 2004! Kyo Kara Maoh!

  
  AWESOME ENGINE — Authority: 145
  Bishounen silliness that goofs around with the whole fantasy genre of Earthlings magically finding themselves in fantasy worlds where they are inexplicably important. Rather that travelling to the magical world in question by magic portal or wardrobe, hero Yuri Shibuya is instead sucked down a school toilet. Junji ...

Based on Yoko Maki’s manga, it deals with a teenage boy who has to look after his 5 year old cousin when she is abandoned at his house. Solid TMS style animation under the shojo trappings ...

  AWESOME ENGINE — Authority: 145
  As much as I wanted to like this golf anime, it’s simply ineptly made. Of course, I’d probably still watch it half asleep if it was on the ITV4 morning cartoon slot.

  AWESOME ENGINE — Authority: 145
  The fun world of sibling incest! From a lot of the folks who brought you Haibane Renmei and would go onto give you Baccano! and Hell Girl, came this adaptation of Motoi Yoshida’s manga. I’ve only seen clips of it on sakuga MAD reels, and obviously there’s some good animation work on it. But I really don’t ...
