Production notes. Original story serialized as a light novel. Setting materials book. Cast and staff interviews book. Merchandise. Doujinshi. I AM DEFINITELY LOVING YOU DO, SAYAKA. I don’t know if I can go to Comiket this winter now…
So I started doing some doujinshi translation to help my Japanese out a bit. Needless to say it’s been a tiresome effort. Though it got me thinking – the acceptance (specifically, sale and distribution) of doujinshi in today’s day and age is a mystical thing. However, if you know anything about Japanese culture (and you […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Adapting an adolescent mystery novel…? KyoAni just going to do whatever they want until the end of time. Though, I’d hate to see all that money from the K-ON movie airing this weekend spent on something not moe. I payed for moe damnit. I want more moe. Source.
You read the title! Why do I get this news a month before I have to leave Japan?! No…I can’t have thoughts like that..if I have to, I will pay a 2000$ plane ticket to come back and see this in theaters…there has to be a way.. Source: Official website.
If there’s anything I’ve learned about Japanese culture, it’s that there is a time and a place for everything. The language doesn’t just have ~9 different levels of politeness on how to ask a question, its also supports the strict social norms for not asking about people’s individual thoughts, ideas, or emotions. The way you […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
So at the risk of making this a tumbler/flickr/whatever or one of those crappy picture-only blogs out there, I thought I’d just put an updated picture of my desk space out there. As always Japanese daily life is somehow keeping me away from doing the things I like the most about Japan. I’m okay with […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I know, I promised PANZER WORLD GALIENT last week, but I can’t justify introducing that show. Not until I manage to watch the first 10 episodes or something. I can’t even justify introducing a show when I’ve done the 3-episode test, to be honest. Usually, I’d introduce a show when I’m at least halfway through, […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Until today, I never realized that there were VOTOMS X Madoka crossovers. And some of them involve Chirico and Kyuubei. Or rather, Chiricobei. Okay, this is probably the worst way to start an article. I mean, it’s mindboggling. One of anime’s stone-cold badasses as… … … this year’s (arguably) most evil (yet disgustingly adorable) “mascot”.

Under normal conditions, I’d be cheesing away with hilariously cheesy lines and introducing some old-school anime (I had VOTOMS in mind), but terrible news I found out earlier today has shelved these plans for at least a week. I’m not sure if working in that line from VOTOMS about Chirico, coffee and it being bitter […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
It is quite the funny thing. Macross Frontier has come and gone. I’ve talked about Macross 7 at length, and I have yet to mention the show that started it all: The SuperDimensional Fortress MACROSS. How did I ever talk about old-school shows for so long and not mention the grand-daddy of old-school shows is […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
For those of you who haven’t heard, a couple of pals of mine decided to dive right into the drama-laden, fail-inducing morass of a trainwreck that is deciding the most beloved of girls. Except we boot out the 2D girls and we replace them with giant robots. It’s hilarious, filled with mock drama, whiny Getterfags, […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Before we begin, I’d really like to say a few things. Apologies for being completely off the radar for a while. I have the worst writing schedule ever. (I go off on long periods of NOT WRITING because the community sucks now. Which is detailed in these 3 posts.) Real life kicked me in the […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
