Blogs
studentofetherium's recommended sites:
- Collectr's Blog: the blog for Orphan Subs, who translate a lot of older and more obscure anime. it's cool to see what they pick up, and read the write-ups as well, even when i don't check out the anime themselves
- sakugablog: great source for information about the anime industry. at least 60% of what i know about the industry comes from following this page
- Ataelier Emily: anime blogger who writes analysis
- Dynasty Scans: :)
- The Quietus: indie music review site
- Stereogum: bigger music review site
- Homicidols: chika idol blog
