Figure RequestAgreed, we need more cool male figures! I could definitely go for a Ginko or Hei or Lelouch.
Beyond that, figures of characters from Yotsubato! other than Yotsuba herself, especially Asagi.
Also the Aria girls can always use more figures, especiall...
dannychoo.com in 2007Thanks for a great year, Danny!
And well done striking out on your own and making a successful go of it. That's not an easy thing to do, but you seem to have really put a lot of thought and effort into what you do for this site. がんばれ!

Max FactoryIs that a tiny Henrietta figure with her AMATI violin case that I see in the corner of the last screenshot there?
Very cool photos, Danny; I appreciate the virtual tour and getting to see a bit of what the working conditions are like.
Ichigo TrainThis reminds me a lot of highly stylized "old timey" trains that run between Kumamoto and Aso-san in Kyushu. Similar concept - a thematically stylized (perhaps even, dare I say, pimpin') ride; a tourist attraction in and of itself. :)
I'd probably f...
Manga Spoils AnimeAs others have said, for many stories the manga is actually a lot more interesting - shonen stories like Naruto and Death Note being case in point.
Story pacing and shot composition is often better in manga, and it doesn't deteriorate as noticeably...
Nintendo Game CheatsIt seems pretty obvious to me that this is just an attempt at protecting what has traditionally been a very lucrative revenue stream - guidebooks. The internet has put the power in the hands of consumers when it comes to sharing information, and the...
Japanese Food MenusNothing like a good old-fashioned Diggdotting, eh Danny? ;)
As great as picture menus are, I'm much more of a fan of the plastic food. Nicer restaurants often won't have pictures on the menu; even the prices are all in kanji. Thus, it's helpful to...
AkihabaraMan, even in just the last couple years Akiba has changed so much. It's kind of unfortunate. It's become a lot more touristy.
These days it seems like all the real otaku action is moving westward, toward Nakano and Tachikawa. :P
Tokyo MapFortunately, not every city is as bad as Tokyo. I occasionally get lost trying to find an address in Hiroshima, but for the most part they're more logically laid out.

ItachariHaha, "itachari" - I love it!
So if it had the huge handlebars and the big basket could you call it a "mamaitachari"?
Trying to envision that combination just blows my mind. :P
Never seen one of those around Akiba, but I did spot a bike with a Har...
