Fresh from the rumour mill. According to Moon Phase Zakki sources, a new Gundam series will start airing October next year. Many valorous spies paid the ultimate sacrifice to bring us this information. Quote: ガンダム新シリーズ、来年10月放送にむけて始動！…らしい。 「天保異聞 妖奇士」の後番、来年の土6は新ガンダム。監督は水島精二氏とのこと。一応、内部リークですが、実際この通り順調に企画が進むかどうかは不明。 Translation: New Gundam series, starts airing October next year!… Apparently. Taking over the time slot of Ayakashi Ayashi, a new Gundam series will air [...]
Comiket 70 day one has ended just a few hours ago. Since Shingo from HD has yet to post his report, here’s a little something for those of you out there with nothing else better to do than to wait (like me)… It’s a bunch of screencaps taken from a TV program covering the 70th [...]
Made by Art Hobby. It’s 1/6 PVC figurine of Mikuru-chan! In three different colours! So you couldn’t get yourself down to Kobe for WHF and grab the original Haruhi Bunny resin kit, can’t afford to buy a prebuilt one off Yahoo Auctions and desperately waiting for e2046 to hurry up and release their recast already? Well, then [...]
I think this is one of the few times where I feel that my translation actually manages to capture the full meaning of the song. Maybe it’s just my self delusions at work again. The Japanese lyrics are really short and simple but the translated lines are much longer than average. Maybe it’s just a coincidence [...]
As you may have noticed, I don’t like to do episode blog entries. Usually I can’t think of anything clever to say and most anime episodes don’t give much to talk about. Sometimes I do a review of the first episode of a new series but other than that I try to stay away from [...]

RIAJ grades CDs into categories like Gold and Platinum according to the sales. “Hare Hare Yukai” sold 100,000 [...]
Remember that Bunny Haruhi that everyone wanted but no one could afford? Well, the HK website e2046 has just started taking preorders for a recast of it today. These are unbuilt resin kits recasted from the original. It’s probably going to take many days/weeks of work to get it anywhere near the original creator’s finished sample, but [...]
Finally, a new chapter! Sorry it took so long, but I’m lazy. :( This time I’ll introduce Japanese adjectives. Adjective is pretty simple in Japanese so this chapter will hopefully be clear and not as confusing as kanji… Please make sure you’e read the previous chapters first before continuing as I won’t be explaining the things [...]
I happened to be near Kinokuniya yesterday when I received a call from the Japanese book counter telling me that my Negima! Vol.15 was ready for collection. The limited edition is waaaay overpriced but I bought it anyway because I am a tool of the system. It comes with a DVD that contains promotional material for [...]
