| 5:38pm | Fun Times @ UP AME 8th Avenue Part 2: The Art of Filipino Cosplaying | | | | I’m afraid this post will now be drowned in the sea of AFA posts due to its lateness, but I don’t really mind. There’s not enough blogs out there that provide coverage to our local cons, so there’s no way I can just give up writing this. And besides, the cosplay competition I witnessed (for... | | |
| 3:04pm | Manga extravaganza: Air gear | | | | There are several things wrong with this secenario: #1: The girl is not a tuner. #2: Akito doesn’t look cute. #3: They are both underage. #4: I don’t think the girl knows what “tuning” really means. #5: They are in a virtual reality! Does tuning even work there? #6: Oh great’s... | | |
| 6:03pm | The Otaku Choice: Obama | | | | Ok, I just had to get this off my chest. For the most part, many of us American otaku could care less about politics, myself included. If you follow the news at all, we all know that we are less than 60 days away from one of the biggest elections in American history. I was born on November 8th, 1983... | | |

| 12:31pm | Ringo Noyamano |  | | | So what's the verdict then? I opened the box carefully upon arrival in anticipation of me having to box her back up and let her go on Yahoo Auction. The pre-release pictures taken by Akiba Hobby *and* Moeyo made this figure look really bad! Not only that, its released by Yamato and they haven't really... | | |

| 3:57pm | Japan Expo: an otaku’s paradise, just across the channel. | | | | Last weekend I was invited to attend the ninth Japan Expo at the Parc d’Expositions de Paris-Nord Villepinte. When I first read the names of the mangaka and anime artists who were appearing at Japan Expo this year, I had to pinch myself. Because the team who organize Japan Expo had accumulated a... | | |

Cosfest VII got off to a great start yesterday and tedfox-sama and I were eagerly anticipating the continuation of that quality but alas, the quality of the cosplayers were relatively less than stellar. HOWEVER, they were still awesome, especially... | | |

| 3:16pm | Like Cake, You Cant Resist Hidamari Sketch |  | | | I tried to resist watching the first episode of Hidamari Sketch x365 because I wanted to wait for a high quality version of the episode as opposed to [h00rjforce]’s but I could not stop myself. I went to check the quality and saw about 2 seconds of glory before I close the window and had a 5 minute... | | |
| 11:05am | Had to Comment on the Digital File Argument | | | | Trivia: Greg Ayres voiced Chrono in the ADV dub. I suppose I should have anticipated that, the day before a large convention, a firestorm that would spawn from Scott’s post on the divisive issue of fansubs with relation to Greg Ayres’ Anime Next panel but I was still a bit surprised by the... | | |
| 5:57pm | Full Summer Anime Preview -- staff, cast, trailers, pics, stories | | | | For me, the best way to guess how good a coming anime will be, is by looking at its staff: the director and writers and animation director and sound director, and so on. People who have made good shows before tend to make good shows again.I sometimes start watching a show for its voice actors, but I... | | |
