| 3:21am | Seiyuu Animedia May 2009 - Nana-chan! | | | | I plan to do a quick review or at least photo snap of all the seiyuu magazines I just got, but just had to show a small preview of this month’s Seiyuu Animedia featuring Nana Mizuki (once again) as its cover girl! Two quick scans after the jump for the Nana-chan fan in all of us! All I can say... | | |
| 6:36pm | The many voices of Nana-chan | | | | Mizuki Nana joins the crew of the current Music Japan, and this time, she’s also one of the guests for the day.

| 1:40am | Late Blog Updates and Seiyuu Rants | | | | I’m pretty sure I’m one of the few bloggers that changes their layout almost seasonal, constantly confusing his ever declining number of readers as they get re-adjusted to the new layout of the season. All I can say to my readers is sorry but I am a man of random taste and that change is... | | |
| 8:31pm | More NANA Anime Coming? | | | | I admit it's not much evidence, but Hirano Aya reports in her blog that the cast and staff of NANA got together for a cherry-blossom-viewing party a day or two ago.Can this mean that they have more work to do together?

| 8:04pm | Music Japan new members episode launch | | | | Who would have thought that there will be a day where Mizuki Nana and Perfume would pose in the very same picture. 2 days after the episode airs, and who would have thought that they actually made a big hoo-ha about the inclusion of Mizuki Nana and Perfume as narrator and navigators respectively, to... | | |

| 2:50am | Mamoru, Aya, Nana, and more! | | | | More of an image dump than anything constructive but the spending bug bit me again resulting in another 100USD on magazines I can never take good scans of!

| 4:25am | Animelo 2009 BRD Day 1, Bullet Style | | | | Introducing a new measure of length of a DVD - moments of bliss. I realized Animelo 2009 day 1 on Blu-Ray is like, FIVE AND A HALF HOURS. That’s like, a 12-episode TV series. GUH. But it is good–much of it kept my fanboy heart aflutter, GAR, or otherwise amused. So it’s too long, but... | | |
