| 3:47pm | Heroic Age (Episode 2) | | | | Hmmm, the second episode is not as good as the first but it's still entertaining. Age is invited to join the Human race as he was foretold to be Human last hope but not everyone is convinced with him because he looks and acts like a barbarian, and he doesn't know about numbers too. Well, it can't | | |
| 10:33am | Weekly Oricon Top 30 - 4/30/07 | | | | The gods tease me! Flip-flopping yet again, this week’s new music is simply fantastic compared to the last chart.

| 6:32am | ADV Films Licenses AIR TV and Movie | | | | In the past year or so, ADV has cut down noticeably on their reckless mundane licensing habits and have focused only on a small number of titles that they believe will both benefit themselves and its fans. The results, I'd say, have been quite good. ADV is able to obtain anime licenses labeled | | |
| 6:21am | Air News Makes Me Happy | | | | After all the overblown doom and gloom this week about the status of anime in America, re the ICV2 article and the concern over some English dub-production being shipped to Odex, I’m happy to see some good news.

| 4:17am | First Haruhi, Now Air; Is Kanon Next? | | | | I just saw on AnimeonDVD that Air has been licensed by ADV, so that just leaves Kanon among the major KyoAni works to be brought over to the U.S. I haven’t watched Air yet, but now I really want to (despite of a negative reaction to it that I saw recently!) Being only 12 episodes is an | | |
| 4:05am | Yamashita Shunya's Latest Figure: Shouko-san | | | | Now, up to this point, Yamashita Shunya based figures have been dead sexy every single time. Enter the new chick. We'll be calling her Hanaya Suekko Shouko-san. That would likely end up in English as Florist's Youngest Daughter: Shouko-san. I am just not excited by this figure. The | | |

| 10:05pm | Japanese Magic Tricks compilation video | | | | In America we just let bunnies reproduce in luxurious hats, play some card games, and maybe push a tiger to its limits. In Japan they steal hamburgers, decapitate themselves for fun, and perform Full Fruit Alchemy to make magic-deprived mouth water. Chances are good you’ve seen one of Cyril | | |
| 9:53pm | Mikuru BEAM! | | | | By far, my favorite episode of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya has to be the “first” one (or “Episode 00″) that features Haruhi’s film “The Adventures of Mikuru Asahina.” I’ve watched it a few times and it just keeps getting better. The stuff with | | |
| 7:02pm | The Anime Blog Poll: Are You an Anime Visualist or Literaist? | | | | The net is such a great place for invention. Everyday I see new words and phrases pop up, get accepted into the culture and become a part of daily use. This is true even for the anime subcultures. Gar is a good one to use as an example of this.
