I think Kenko Zenrakei Suieibu Umisho wins the “Anime With The Longest Name Award” for the Summer 2007 season. And as jpmeyer pointed out, the fanservice award as well.

Moetan, that super fun to make fun of Engrish book series is finally an anime! But does it still have charm and potential for mockery of the original?
A lot of the new anime this season don’t really seem to interest me, and the ones that do aren’t subbed yet, so I’ll probably wait on them. Potemayo was one of the anime I really wanted to see, and luckily for me, it’s pretty easy to understand raw, so here’s my first impressions on this very weird anime.
I just got a shipment from Yesasia of random stuff. It consisted of Disgaea PSP, and this random manga I bought called “Penguin Musume.” It’s in Japanese, so it’ll take me a while to read it. I did get through a couple of pages, so here are my first impressions.
I skipped watching Lovely Complex raw because I figured I wouldn’t get any of the jokes. Finally, someone subbed it, and boy am I grateful! Forget Romeo x Juliet, the truly messed up couple is in Lovely Complex!
Lucky☆Star is out! This is the new Kyoto Animation anime that’s based on a 4-koma manga, as everyone and their mom probably already knows. The hype levels have been through the roof since it was announced, but can a 4-koma anime really be that awesome?
Nagasarete Airantou is sort of like Gilligan’s Island, except an anime version. This means less Skippers and Professors, and more Gingers and Mary Anns! Sounds like a good change to me!
Kamichama Karin is another one of Koge Donbo’s manga that now has an anime. She’s also responsible for Pita-Ten and Di Gi Charat. I really liked Pita-Ten a lot, so I was really excited for Kamichama Karin, even though I’ve never read it.
Romeo x Juliet is the latest “adaptation” from Gonzo, masters of adaptation. They’re now taking on Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, and adapting it to anime. Wait, this is supposed to be Romeo and Juliet!? Seriously!?
Hitohira has been out for quite a while, but I finally had a chance to check it out. Raw style! I will tell you right now: If you like highlights (like the hair ones), you will need to watch this anime!
