Oh my god! It’s finally here! The Holy Grail! The first song that Maaya and her former mentor Yoko Kanno have worked together on in almost half a decade! Triangler is the first opening song for Macross Frontier. Lyrics translation and fanboying after the break.

Looks like those people finally read my snail mail and updated my mailing address… There’s even a piece of notice inside informing members that personal information can now be [...]

The second one was my preorder for Maaya Sakamoto’s “I.D.” photo essay. I also picked up the January issue of Newtype and School [...]
