Ducks In Anime By The Book


-Read Or Die TV, ep01

I hadn't watched ROD TV in a few years, but I really liked it the first time through.  I didn't feel like catching up on Railgun (I'm two episodes behind) or watching Summer Wars (not enough time), so I figured what the heck, why not?

And there it was.  I don't remember it being there the first time I watched the show, but with hardsubbing, it might have been covered up.  I'll freely admit to being amazed. 

First episode is just as fun as I remember it being, too, so that's a bonus.

1 Did you ever watch the ROD OVA?  I really enjoyed it, but got turned off on the first episode of ROD TV when it turned out that there was more than one paper-master, and then Stephen's negative review convinced me it wasn't worth going back to it. 

But if you like it, I may have to reconsider.  Does it feature any Pocky stix?

2 Not that I remember, but I didn't remember the duckie either, so take that as you will.  I humbly disagree with Stephen's review of the series, though his point is well-taken regarding the fridge logic involved. 

Much like the OVA, if you watch it as you would, say, a James Bond movie, it's better than if you nitpick the hell out of it.  It's a fun romp... at least, as far as I remember.  It's been nearly five years since I last watched (sheesh, back then I was on dialup and using kazaa... it would take 18 hours to d/l an episode).

Hell, I don't even think I was blogging back then, and I sure wasn't doing the "Ducks In Anime" category.  Through the first two episodes, though, I'm still enjoying it.
