Mainichi Anime Yume in the 2nd Aniblog Tourney

Two years after the first Aniblog Tourney in 2010, Mainichi Anime Yume is again participating in the second Aniblog Tourney that started up back in April. For those of you visiting the blog for the first time, welcome…

Mainichi Anime Yume is a single-author blog created in 2006 and run by me, Yumeka. My main focus is editorial posts about general anime topics and occasional reviews of seasonal anime. I also write other random posts from time to time such as posts about Japan/Japanese, computer/video games, or top 10 lists. If you want to find out more info about the blog, you can take a look at the pages above, under the banner.

Below I’ve listed posts I’ve written since the last tourney to give you an idea of what I like to write about.

editorials (general anime)
How understandable is anime iconography?
What determines how long our fandom lasts?
The present and future of the US anime industry

    Although I have have not checked out other bloggers, your posts are always interesting, and written in a “sincere” kind of way (don’t know any other way to put it). Anyway, good luck!

    You definitely did deserve to win! Your blog is like an old, caring grandmother, lovingly looking over the rest of us through all these years >_>
