So DS brought up this idea: Let’s run an anime blogger panel at new york anime festival! I thought “eh why, it would be all boring like that ANN panel last year” but then I thought from another point of view… It can be BETTER than the ANN panel cause we don’t need to talk about main stream licensed shit. We can talk about actual blogs that blog about anime, editorials, flames, imoutos, NicoNico memes and the whole thing about starting your shiny new anime blog. Continue Reading »

It’s been a while so let me flame a bit (in light of recent events dorama while I’m at it.) Also I can’t believe we’re almost at chapter 400 =_=; Oh woe is us, Uchiha were the poor defenseless clan that Konoha hated! Now the buttsecks relationship between Sasuke and Naruto is stronger because Naruto was ALSO oppressed. Wow Konoha village people are just a bunch of oppressive assholes who gang up on everyone relating to the Uchiha! I bet soon we’ll hear that the reason Naruto was hated was not because he was a Kyuubi container, but because the Kyuubi incident was thought to be caused BY the Uchiha clan! Continue Reading »

I finally read through my Inukami vol. 1-5 that I picked up a couple months ago. Let me just say one thing that will probably disappoint Inukami anime fans: There were no elephant wangs. I was pretty surprised but while the entire anime seemed to focus on elephant wangs and perverted mans who shake their parts in public, the manga just specifically focused on well..Inukami and mostly Keita and Youko. I’m not sure if this manga is still going as I haven’t seen any new volumes past 5 anywhere but pretty much everything you find in the manga you’ll have seen in the anime - sans the elephants.

I have been regretting little by little for registering for Anime Next and after the flood of incoherent teenage brats who flamed my Sakura Matsuri post, the lack of communication from the artist alley, and the fact that the anime next website goes down at least once a day has increased my general downturn on the whole thing. I only registered because someone invited me to help them with a panel on eroge/otome games and at the time I was really excited to help - but now I wish I never agreed to do this. Nothing against the panelists or the panel itself, but frankly I have this disgusted feeling at this whole thing to the point where I don’t want to contribute anything to anyone there.

Woooooww they changed so many things around I have to rant. All the great things about the love of the “robot boyfriend” that were in the manga were basically thrown out in the drama. I mean really what’s the point of calling it “absolute boyfriend” when they coulda just called it “absolute robot lover” or something. He’s not Riko’s boyfriend in her eyes and never was since day one. Even when her “best friend” (which was demoted to “friend” this week) takes him, she goes off flirting with her boss. Wtf Continue Reading »

So about the only thing I look forward to in this show is the time Udagawa spends at Sakura’s house with Sakura’s sister being all like “come on oneechan this is your future husband. Now I will leave the young couple alone to themselves” You go girl! LOL. As usual the criminal was pretty predictable. The twist was that she killed the guy because he threatened to post naked pics of her if she decided to leave his stage troop to get a role as a movie actress. Lesson of the day ladies, don’t let anyone (even your lover) take naked pics of you because they will always be used against you! At the end they showed a bit more of Sakura’s childhood flashback. Hopefully they’ll start going into that within the next few episodes.

Upcoming Attractions: Aliens.

So as I said yesterday I’d be attending and this was certainly an interesting experience. Although I am sad to say, I have never felt more ashamed to be a cosplayer than I have today. While I came dressed in regular clothes, seeing all the weeboos in Kimonos and Narutard cosplay gave me a sinking feeling somewhere in the back of my mind. If it makes things anymore ironic, the majority of the kimono wearing crowd were NOT the Japanese… Continue Reading »
