Presenting: 1st Monthly WTF happened to my Manga? Feature

Matt | February 7, 2010 | 11:28 pm

After a late night talk with Neko, I decided that you know, I live in the boonies, and interenets are slow in the boonies ergo internet video sucks in the boonies.

Basquash! An Epic Tragedy

nekosasu | October 20, 2009 | 3:36 am
Such a sweet composition, really. But sadly, I can't say the same about this anime.

Such a sweet composition, really. But sadly, I can’t say the same about this anime.

However equivocal the title’s claim might sound to you, I think it makes most sense in the case of Basquash. Not so much for its actual tragic content, but for the painful, epic tragedy my viewing experience of this whole anime has become.
