Sekirei is a fun series – nothing special, but fun to watch… and it has plenty of “eye candy,” if you catch my drift. If you’re interested, you can watch for yourself thanks to the fansubs. The only problem was that its ending left… umm… much to be desired. Like most series derived from manga, […]
I’m a total fan of Crunchyroll… and to think, I only heard about it a few months ago! And I still am amazed at the thought that generally well-subbed anime hits the Crunchyroll feeds just 1 day after they are aired in Japan – it’s just too cool, I can’t hardly get my brain wrapped […]
This year marks the 5 year anniversary of our trip to Japan on the AX Tokyo tour. (And I STILL haven’t edited together our trip video! Yeah, feel free to beat me with whatever blunt objects happen to be within easy reach.) I was interested in Asian and Japanese culture long before becoming an anime […]
It’s been a busier than usual work week for me, and this weekend is shaping up to be even busier still. So it is highly likely that the next episode won’t come out until mid next week, at the very earliest… probably more like next weekend, realistically speaking. If a miracle happens and my weekend […]
Fans of Japanese indie rock will be pleased to know that the Japan Girls Nite tour, featuring bands Redd Bacteria Vaccuum, noodles, TsuShiMaMire, and Omodaka +6%DOKIDOKI Shop Girls, will be hitting various venues in both LA and San Francisco. Full list of dates and shows after the “read more” link. […]
Apparently this coming Monday is “Lazy Day,” a national celebration commemorating… well, laziness. Although I can’t find any mention of this in any online resource. Still, any excuse to celebrate laziness is fine with me! (Edit: I was able to find one page explaining this holiday.) But you may want to make one exception in […]
A quick update on the story we reported in Episode #0008. Anime News Network is reporting that as of Saturday evening, Noriko Sakai voluntarily turned herself in to a Tokyo police facility and has been arrested on drug possession charges. The police issued a warrant for Sakai’s arrest on Friday after they reportedly found stimulants […]
If you live in New York City and are free tomorrow (Sunday, August 9), then you have the opportunity to see Hayao Miyazaki’s new film five days before its official release date! The New York International Childrens’ Film Festival announced that it will be hosting a special advance screening of the film at the city’s […]
Bert Monroy is one of the world’s premier digital artists. Using the Adobe Creative Suite (mostly Photoshop and Illustrator), he creates incredibly detailed scenes, “digital paintings” of a sort. They look so incredibly lifelike – so much so that someone who is not familiar with Monroy’s works would call them photographs. They are not. Every […]
Ok, this is a bit old news, but still both humorous and touching at the same time. By way of the Cartoon Geeks, this lovely gem of a video tells the heartwarming story of a geek and a goth, locked in a forbidden romance that neither of their friends can possibly understand. Funny and touching […]
