| 5:44am | ゴア・スクリーミング・ショウ ver. 初音ミク |  | | | When I found this I was amazed~! I never thought I’d see Distorted Pain (originally Karen of Yousei Teikoku who is awesome and has done songs for Venus Versus Virus and Innocent Venus, among others) sung by Hatsune Miku. But even if the game isn’t that popular, this song is. I can’t... | | |
| 9:07pm | ADV Correction: Robotech, Council Still On, 5cm Still Off | | | | ANN got a correction today from ADV, who now declare that its Best Student Council and Robotech releases are still on the map. Which leaves the two discontinued series being 5 Centimeters per Second and Innocent Venus. Now, I liked Student Council and all, but somehow this seems like the reverse of... | | |
| 11:35am | What About The Geneon Remainders? | | | | I promise this will be the last notebook photo for a long while. Amidst the flurry of distribution acquisitions by Funimation a weekend ago, there were a number of series that did not show up on those lengthy lists. The focus of the partnership with Geneon was to continue releases that were halted during... | | |

| 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... | | |
| 6:55pm | 5cm Per Second, Innocent Venus get the axe | | | | In more fun for ADV films, they have announced the discontinuation of 4 more titles: 5 Centimeters Per Second, Best Student Council, Innocent Venus, and Robotech. ADV has not said whether they were also licensed by Sojitz like the 32 other titles that they lost or not, though I wouldn’t be surprised... | | |

Anime Nation has posted several titles that have reportedly been discontinued by ADV: Five Centimeters Per Second Best Student Council Innocent Venus Robotech The only surprising item on there, really, is 5cm, which although I’m not a Shinkai fan myself should be pretty popular especially... | | |
| 5:41pm | A little update on Funimation, Geneon, and ADV | | | | I apologize to gia, but I think it will just be easier to quote from her post: Fukunaga is now talking about FUNi’s major coup d’etats: the 10+ Geneon titles and the 32 ADV titles (Gen says 34– are there more to hear about? Hm). Moving into questions…Will you go with box sets for the new titles?... | | |
| 5:13pm | Funimation takes over anime, aquires THIRTY ADV Titles | | | | I’m guessing this is all part of the fallout between ADV and their licensing partner Sojitz as many of the titles on this list were on the list of suspended shows in February:009-1Ah! My Goddess: Flights of FancyAir GearAir: The MovieAir TVBlade of the Phantom MasterComic Party: RevolutionCoyote... | | |
| 7:24am | Impressions: Air, Haruhi, Kurau and Innocent Venus | | | | Yeah, so I've watched a lot of stuff lately, most of which I could do something longer on, but I thought I'd just run through my impressions on them. Air (TV) – This is one of those shows where there was a lot that I liked and some stuff I didn't. I didn't have a horrible time with the fairly lacksidasical... | | |
| 5:56pm | Riuva Winter’08 Anime Rapid Review! (RWARR!) Part 1 | | | | It’s time for RWARR! First batch of new season anime up! Btw, my new year resolution is to watch a lot less anime, study harder and become Rossiu. Hatenkou Yuugi Studio Deen Excellent first episode. The 2 males 1 loli formula is not an uncommon one, with the likes of Innocent Venus and Zombie... | | |

| 8:25am | El Cazador de la Bruja 25-26: What… that’s it? |  | | | Okay, I don’t know what the heck to say about this. My mouth is just hanging. I was stuck in university without anime for about two months so I was highly anticipating the last few episodes of the series I have been following and as for El Cazador that’s it? Well, I still won’t change... | | |
| 11:09am | Winter Season Preview | | | | Whoa, this is one of the smallest seasons we’ve had in years! To give some numbers, this preview consists out of only thirteen series (I left out the continuations of the series that I haven’t seen like Ah My Goddess, Minami-Ke and Major, and yes, one day I WILL watch Aria). And yet, I’m... | | |
