| 6:07am | Should anime be converted to manga? Or are they doomed to failure? | | | | In my last review, Infinite Ryvius, I criticised it due to it being a failure compared to the anime. Digitalboy left the following comment: Of course – there is pretty much no such thing as a manga that’s based on an anime that’s any good unless it’s an alternate universe retelling. PERIOD.... | | |
| 5:50pm | A Good Day | | | | Yesterday was a good day. No quams about it. It was just good. I headed down to Janesville (WI) to hit up their Best Buy for the 50% off sales they were having since Madison’s BBs were not. Though their selection was fairly paltry, I was able to get my hands on all of Witchblade as well... | | |
| 9:38am | Today’s mental picture | | | | Banshee on Ohayocon: And to make matters worse, the other events were a cheerleading convention and a Christian youth group convention.

| 10:44pm | Ohayocon 2009 Report |  | | | I heard there was a convention this past weekend. It certainly seemed like it. Maybe I’m getting jaded by other conventions, but this seemed more like a ridiculously huge social gathering than a convention. Anyway, continue on for my (and CJ’s!) report. I arrived on site a little... | | |

| 12:40am | I’m Glad that Gonzo is Finally Dying | | | | According to various sources, everyone’s favorite studio Gonzo is being essentially forced to resort to ero anime, considered a mark of shame in the industry, with their worst staff, as if any scrap of talent hadn’t left long ago or was (mercifully?) canned. This is a sign of the times,... | | |
| 8:08pm | Gonzo Plans Ero-Anime to Avert Bankruptcy? |  | | | An animator with insider knowledge reports that troubled anime studio Gonzo is considering turning to ero-anime (as in hentai, rather than merely ecchi) to rescue itself, with sacking a quarter of its staff and reducing anime output by half apparently not sufficient to restore it to profitability.... | | |

| 12:21am | Anime Weekend Atlanta Wrap-Up | | | | I wasn’t planning on going over everything that happened at AWA, especially since I wasn’t even there. (Crisu was though!) But since tons of very relevant tidbits happened there, I might as well summarize them here. First of all, Funimation indirectly confirmed that yes, the release date-less... | | |
| 10:02pm | awa08: Bandai | | | | Aaaand Bandai Entertainment producer Toshifumi Yoshida is here in place of Robert Napton, huzzah! Technical difficulties are now over’d, yay.
