The Daily Dose

Hey everyone, a lot of events that have occurred recently left Random Curiosity in a pinch, well kinda ^^’. Divine was a great asset but unfortunately he has left for personal reasons, leaving Omni to once again man the fort on his own. Over the past few months I’ve noticed that the Daily Dose hasn’t made much of a presence like it used to. It was a convenience since it supplied information that everyone looked forward to reading and I felt it made Random Curiosity unique in its own way. I’ve recently contacted Omni and offered my help by doing the Daily Doses in his place. I’m looking forward to working with all of you.

    (Sad) Site Update

    It is with great sadness that I have to announce that Divine has informed me that he will be leaving this site for personal reasons. He’s been a great partner to work with, and I thank him for all the blogging he’s done in the past six months, especially with covering so many of the new fall shows these past few weeks.

    Unfortunately, this comes at a bad time for me because I’m rather busy with my graduate studies, so I can’t write about as many series as I’d like to. For now, it looks like I’ll be covering SOUL EATER on Mondays, Bleach on Tuesdays, Toradora! on Wednesdays, CLANNAD ~AFTER STORY~ and CHAOS;HEAD on Thursdays, To Aru Majutsu no Index and Tales of the Abyss on Saturdays, and Gundam 00 on Sundays. I’d really like to do Vampire Knight Guilty, ef, and continue Xam’d, but I just don’t have time for them.

    So what else does this mean? For starters, I’m looking for someone to help with blogging. If you have some knowledge of Japanese and want to write about a series or two, drop me a line with some sample writings. Alternatively, if you think you’re really good at finding cool anime-related things (Nico Nico videos, websites like Typing Mania 4, etc), I’d be interested in hearing from you as well. Also, for those of you who have emailed me about Daily Doses, I haven’t forgotten about them, and hopefully Daily Doses will start again shortly because I might have found someone to help with them.
