Blog: Smash Japan

Smash Japan is a blog

started by one of our own where he reviews things, and generally rages at them. It's text only, but still worth reading. Particular targets of Sean's ire include the dub of Ponyo on a Cliff by the Sea and Gundam SEED.

Smash Japan contains examples of:

Accentuate the Negative - Usually. Out of the three posts where he's mentioned another work, one of which was an outright rant, he's had a 2:1 bad-review-to-good-review ratio, although admittedly he picked easy targets for the bad ones.
Caustic Critic - When Sean doesn't like something, he writes full essays on its suckage.
He Panned It, Now He Sucks - Sean fully expects this to occur with his Gundam Seed Astray R review.
Schedule Slip - Due to reviewer's block and H 1 N 1, Sean has had trouble updating lately.
Self-Deprecation
Subbing versus Dubbing - Sean explicitly doesn't take a side in this Flame War, in spite of loathing the Ponyo dub.
