They made Ooishi-san really ugly in the anime.  Although his original sprites in the VN are awful too, talk about about a big gut.
If someone's ugly in the source material and ugly in the adaptation there's a chance they're just ugly.

He is hideous! My eyes my beautiful saintly eyes! I mean... he is like 60 or 70 years old!

Wait a minute... are you sure he is ugly?

He seems to be more hideous in the VA personally...

His PS2 sprite isn't too bad at all.  It's what I'm used to as well.

It isn't bad. It is just that in an ugly contest the Visual novel (or Visual adventure?) would win.

Not that I consider either of them ugly... though visual novel Ooishi looks outright odd... like a mish mash of facial traits.

I watched The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya with Leafsnail just now.  It was quite long clocking in at 2 hours and 41 minutes and also was very enjoyable.

Finished the first season of Hayate no Gotoku, and about to start on the second. For a 52 episode season, it held it's quality throughout pretty well. Was quite funny too, it reminded me of SZS in some cases (which is to be expected considering the mangaka worked together for so long)

I finally kicked started my viewings of Neon Genesis Evangelion back up since I finished The Vision of Escaflowne.  Have to say I like NGE more because Escalowne got boring sometimes.  I just finished episode 9 currently and I'm noticing a much more comedic atmosphere since like episode 7 which I thought was really funny to note.  I also started reading the Suzumiya Haruhi light novels, because what the heck I need to put light novels on my list too.

So currently,
Anime: Neon Genesis Evangelion
Manga: Shin Angyo Onshi
Visual Novel: Higurashi - Matsuribayashi-hen
Light Novel: The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi

Watches strike witches season 1 recently.

they had a good thing going with the fighting aliens and the not quite black and white morality, but they didn't explore it as much as they could have.

Also the fanservice...

oh god the fanservice.

An anime where girls wear pants/skirts as much as touhou characters go without head-wear is an anime with too much fanservice.

An episode of Strike Witches is just 24 minutes of pantsu shots with some surprisingly accurate World War 2 references, especially the ships and such. I loved it. The second season was even better, in my opinion.

I think that's why everyone who loves Strike Witches loves Strike Witches.
I know I didn't watch it for any other reason.

Which version are you watching?
Because I heard the DVD version is uncensored. Disturbingly uncensored.

Yeah, it was great.  Even if I was being distracted half the time by PRETTY PICTURES and some pretty amazing animation set pieces.

soooooooo shiny
