| 8:27pm | Magazine Extras: Animedia May 2011 – Surveying 100 Voice Actresses | | | | I used to get Japanese magazines like Newtype, Animage, and Animedia every once in a while – usually around the start of a new anime season but also sometimes for the extras. While cleaning around last night, I found a little booklet from Animage‘s May 2011 issue. They gave survey forms... | | |
| 9:06pm | Anime Review: Sekirei | | | | Sometimes when I’m bored I like to check out Crunchyroll or Funimation to see if they’re streaming anything interesting. Sometimes it works out really well, such as the time I watched all of Nerima Daikon Brothers in a day. Or when I spent an entire weekend watching the first two seasons... | | |
| 12:39am | The curse of ep.7 |  | | | In the comments (not body) of the post at Chizumatic Steven writes that AsoIku 07 has severily tried his patience: I’m having a strange reaction today: I don’t want to watch the rest of this episode. [..] Last night I thought I’d pounce on it first thing this morning, but it’s... | | |
| 2:27am | Anime Expo 2010 | | | | It’s done, over, gone, goodbye AX. Going to keep it really raw, so double apology for your inability to understand what I want to say. Then again, some things I probably want to code in a certain way so not everyone gets it. Hypertext annotation, you know the drill. Oh, a list of contents:BootlegsGeneralThe... | | |
| 12:54am | Linall’s Top Ten Animes | | | | Holy shit this post is overdue. And I’m going to delay it longer by wishing Lumi a happy birthday before I start. See Lumi was the first one to suggest that we all do Top Ten lists, so I thought it would be appropriate to post this on her birthday. Because I totally knew when her birthday was... | | |
| 8:55pm | Nerima Daikon Brothers | | | | For about a week now I’ve been torturing everyone I know with my awful singing. I can’t help it. I got the Nerima Daikon Brothers set and watched the whole thing in a couple of days. That kind of concentrated exposure has some serious effects, causing me to involuntarily sing about a... | | |
| 3:52am | Oscar & Hammerstein Present: kure-nai: The Musical | | | | It’s the hot new off-off-off-off-off-off-off-of f-Broadway production! Guaranteed to win a Tony award, if things that are that off Broadway can actually win those things! I literally have no idea what I just watched, but it wasawesome. Totally pure filler, but awesome pure filler. I have always... | | |
| 8:17am | Nerima Daikon Brothers | | | | So, what about the only existing musical? I saw episode 2, as found on a pack-in DVD from December 2006 Newtype. It’s mildly interesting, but I only liked one number, when Mako sung about the money. So, even if the mocking of Korean Wave was hilarious, this wasn’t appealing to me. | | |
| 5:37am | No love for musicals | | | | I am wondering, why I cannot I remember any anime musicals? There is music in anime, but it’s always playing the second fiddle. I’m thinking something like animated Producers (”Springtime for Toro in Ja-a-a-pan!” and “Make it gay, make it gay, make it gay!” —... | | |
| 5:06pm | Nabeshin’s thoughts on fansubs | | | | Shinichi Watanabe (also known as Nabeshin), director of comedy anime Excel Saga and Nerima Daikon Brothers, was at a convention in the US last week. There was a panel in particular about Anime Bootlegging that he requested to contribute to and share his opinions on. You can watch video clips of the... | | |
| 7:40pm | 42 New Fall Anime -- Cast, Staff, Story, Pic | | | | Here are just about all the series and OVAs scheduled to start this fall, according to the Japanese site MoonPhase -- 35 series and seven OVAs. I've tried to give a story intro, show a pic, and talk about the staff and cast of each one. Click images to enlarge.Nothing seems like an instant classic, but... | | |
| 5:22pm | Flight of the Daikons!? |  | | | So, if you readers have HBO and have watched it recently, you might have come up across ads for a new comedy, Flight of the Conchords. I’ve seen the three episodes that have come out so far, and each has been hilarious in their own way (which is kind of hard to do in entertainment nowadays). ... | | |
| 9:33am | Wallflower anime - Yamato Nadesico Shichihenge acquired by ADV | | | | Revealed at the ADV “Anime at the Alamo” event today, ADV Films now has the license for Yamato Nadesico Shichihenge (known as Wallflower in the original - and ongoing - manga). The series, created by Tomoko Hayakawa and directed in the anime by Shinichi Watanabe (Excel Saga, Nerima | | |
| 7:40am | Releases for the week of 4/16/07 | | | | Sorry folks, this week's releases are slim pickings for those who want to spend money this week. But if you really want to, spend your money on Monster volume 8. And if you haven't read the manga, hurry up and pick it up. You can read my review of the series here, in case you are wondering what | | |
| 6:26am | Releases for the week of 2/19/07 | | | | Hello and welcome to my first post for this week's anime and manga releases. Dick McVengeance relinquished this column to me when he decided that he would only be purchasing Bleach and Cromartie High School DVDs from now on. Well, to each his own. This week is definitely not as busy as the last; | | |
