Something of an intriguing premise underlies this latest manga adaptation: まりあ†ほりっく / Mariaholic, by lady mangaka 遠藤海成 / Endou Minari, centres around the oppression of a cross-dressing boy attempting to duplicitously fit himself into life in a convent school by disguising himself as a pupil, whilst surrounded by young ladies of the sort of tastes typical in exclusively female Catholic schools. Also, it has sadistic maids, and probably nuns.
If you’re not familiar with the work, a chapter is reproduced below.

This digest of tentacle anime came up, and it is amusing enough to share. Quite a comprehensive selection, both of anime and girls, and of styles of tentacle. I see some of the more unusual starfish headed types, as well as the more usual plain shokushu. There is plenty of non-ero-anime featured, but rather a lot of mainstream anime also features – 3×3 Eyes I knew about, but Nanoha had those kind of scenes?

Some rather nice wallpaper type Strike Witches images I picked up are presented here. The image above, which looks to be official, is a particular classic, but there are plenty of other rather interesting images below. When you’re finished with them, you can always wonder what might have been had they based the anime on the original loli manga, and see what came to be: plenty of aerial fondling.

The colossal and highly successful グイン・サーガ / Guin Saga series of fantasy novels, by 栗本薫 / Kaoru Kurimoto, now standing at over 120 volumes, will be adapted into an anime airing in the spring of 2009. The announcement was made on the cover (obi) of the just released 122nd volume, though that there was activity in adapting it to anime has been discussed for a few years (three years ago, in fact).
This is sure to be an interesting project, and possibly the start of a major mixed media franchise, although as yet further details are lacking. Via Moonphase.

A pair of rather exceptional Idol Master MADs are presented here, one is just released, and the other one I hoarded for some time. Both are excellent.

Another one of the nearly OP quality A-rank MADs does the rounds; this one focuses on enhancing the idol qualities of Lucky Star’s Kagami even further. It seems to incorporate just about every illustration of Kagami yet made, and is the better for it…

Zero no Tsukaima’s fifth episode of the new season takes things in a slightly new direction; the series may hardly have been lacking for erotic undertones previously, but now a definite preoccupation with that most delicate of flowers, the lily, seems evident. Of course this may just be brought on by the inevitable need for a service based onsen type episode…

As we saw previously, the phenomenon of regional physics has been providing an increasingly utilised way out for broadcasters shy of controversy, and Strike Witches, already controversial as a loli pantsu manga, is one of the leading targets of this. However, this time it seems they missed the point entirely… Just what part of Charlie’s body are they trying to obscure? Her hip is glared out, but the rest is visible?
You can already see the content of the episode in the previous article, so further gratuitous breast fondling animations are unnecessary for the time being, I think. Source of the above image.

Spotted these interesting Zero no Tsukaima wallpaper type images. Louise features heavily. I’m sure they’ll be of interest to many of you (certainly the one above will be), so by all means take a look.
Personally, I don’t much go in for wallpaper style images, as you may have noticed, but seeing the image above compelled me to post. Hopefully, a proper gallery will be forthcoming at some point, but in the mean time there are already a few nice Louise images posted.

In something of a change from the usual stream of Haruhi MADs, here we have a rather amusing Code Geass MAD, surely leaving no one in any doubt as to the importance of Nipponese liberation.

The latest tegaki usatei kanbu version appears. If it sounds like nonsense, that’s because it is – descriptions don’t really do either the derivatives or the originals much justice, so without further adieu, onto the videos.
