a history of me

...that's the real joy of going to University, discovering things you never knew about before (or simply never tried). For example, I'm now accustomed to putting Tabasco hot sauce on my eggs in the morning. But that's not big news. The big news is that I've been exposed to おるちゅばんエビちゅ, a.k.a. Oruchuban Ebichu, a.k.a. Ebichu the Housekeeping Hamster.

It's the funniest anime I've seen since Excel Saga as well as the most bluntly sexual, adult-oriented animation I've ever seen (aside from straight-up pornography, which Ebichu is not). This is the reason I was so eager to seek out anime clubs here at school; despite my waning interest in the over-saturated US anime market, I knew that someone would show me something that would leave an impression upon me. Something those chumps over at Cartoon Network would never, ever dream of importing.

If you have BitTorrent you can download fan-subtitled episodes here. That's the only way you'll never see it in the United States. You can thank me afterwards.
