Why not? It won’t hurt to try – and it’ll be a bit of good practice to cutting my writing down to something intelligible… plus a good motivator to get me to read more. I’ve nearly given up finding a job for the time being, so something work-like would be good for me… orz

My submission.
If I were reviewing consistently I would review the two series I’m currently reading in Japanese: Kara no Kyoukai and Bakemonogatari – and then maybe other stuff I have translated, FLCL, Faust, Welcome to the NHK etc. 🙂 – Hopefully another multitude of things that come my way.

I liked the review, you’ve got the job. 😉
Each review should be for one single WHOLE book or volume, not a chapter or the entire series, k? ^_^
I look forward to reading your next review, for when I can publish it on the blog.
Also, to anyone still wishing to apply. You may still. We can always use more help. 😉

Hehe, I just figured since each Kara no Kyoukai “chapter”/arc has its own film – only the first chapter has been officially published in English, and the current published format was more of an afterthought – they were web published at first, it asked for such a specific look, but yeah review per volume is good 😉 – though I might have to persuade you for arc based for Bakemonogatari and Kara no Kyoukai (in part because I’m a slow reader of Japanese D:)
I’ll probably do FLCL soon – I just bought the final volume a little while ago, and I might re-read Welcome to the NHK for another. I think I can manage one every one or at least two weeks – but as everyone knows we’re all busy orz.
