Blog info:
Beneath every blog entry there are labels. I label every episode with its specifics, like which characters are in or if it contains severe violence (like the swordfight in episode 7). Just click a label if you want to see all the episodes with your favourite character. I've decided not to include Kure Kure Takora and Chonbo as labels, since they participate in every episode anyway.
