Who needs a girlfriend when you have a Waifu? Ben and Kevin intimately discuss Katawa Shoujo with friends, as well as other big news stories that matter to them, and sometimes just their feelings.

Hey guys! I am sorry that I have not been posting any spotlights recently. A lot of things have been on my plate and I could not find the time for it. Midterms were this week, had some girl problems (I know right? lolol girls), and of course the infamous Steam Sales struck again.

But you aren't here for my life problems. I mean come on, really life? Who needs that when you have anime and waifus!!! This week's anime is a ongoing one(well its newest season is ongoing at least). The reason why I chose this one is because I at first did not know of it and was introduced by a friend. So I thought, why not show it to you guys? I hope you will enjoy and appreciate this anime series.

Sorry for all of you that were expecting an episode tonight. As much as I hate to say it, there won't be one.

Kevin has been really busy these past few weeks with school and life. I've been quite busy too, and perhaps not busy enough, since my grades are starting to slip. Henry, who I really wanted to have on this episode, is also busy.

But above all else, I'm no longer comfortable with putting out an episode if I don't think it's a good one. Too many times now we've recorded an episode the night it's due out, and our lack of preparation has caused the quality to suffer. Last week was a good example. We definitely spent WAY too much time talking about absolutely nothing, and the topics I did want to go over were only just brushed upon. I want to release an episode only if those listening will enjoy it. We never have any notes, and for the most part any real discussion. William, our new writer, has so many good ideas for what we can do for Emi's episode that I don't want them to go to waste on a rushed recording. It might be quality control, but I don't want you listening to something I'm not proud of making.

Once again, I'm really sorry to those who were excited to hear the next new episode. I promise next week's one will more than make up for it. Until then, I hope you keep listening and providing feedback. Love you guys. See you next week.

I'm assuming this is your reaction to the news.

I’m going to begin my anime spotlights with my favourite anime: Gurren Lagann. It’s very apt for a Katawa Shoujo blog, too...

Oh god mah drills

So.. I'm William Bundy. My hobbies are computers and anime. I hope to get along well with everyone even though I'm a new blogger...



Enough with the Hisao. You've likely seen me in the comments, or heard about me in Rin's podcast. After chatting with Ben over the tubes, I've been allowed to spout my crazy ideas make Anime/VN-related posts and even possibly join in the podcast fun.

If you want to know more about me, I'm a senior in a southern California high school. I've played tuba in the band all four years, marching band freshman through junior, and this year I joined the Academic Decathlon team, possibly against my better judgement (Doctor Zhivago sucks). My family moved to America from Britain when I was quite young, and I've been brought up in a strange, southern Californian distortion of British culture. At the age of twelve I started learning how to program with ActionScript, i.e., Flash, eventually branching out into better platforms (Python, C#, C/C++ to name a few). I've always had a penchant for the maths and sciences, but under my current and previous English literature and language teachers, respectively, I've come to enjoy critical reading (as opposed to reading for fun) and analysis more and more.


Some facts more easily enumerated:

• My waifu is Lilly Satou. 
• My favourite anime is Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, followed closely by several others.
• I run Linux (Ubuntu 12.04, as it plays well with my dual monitor setup while not having broken packages)
• Visual novel-wise, my first one was Digital: A Love Story. Apart from Katawa Shoujo, I've also played Shuffle! and don't take it personally babe, it just ain't your story.
