アニメ イラストレーターHonestly? I don't like any of these. Maybe I'm just an old coot, but these current incarnations of Mirai seem to be a little too...well...I guess the proper term might be 'spindly'. The illustrations created by Azami-sensei seemed to have more substa...
秋葉原のBBC撮影I may come across as a cynical old fart, but part of me worries about how much of a freakshow they're going to make you and you friends look like. I know that the BBC is a classier act than american media (heck, american media can't even pronounce th...
一週間の東京 43You ask if I ever dyed my hair before. The answer is yes. I actually went to a hairdresser and told her "I want my hair as blonde as you can make it." Arriving home to my apartment that I shared with several other otaku, I showed it off and they imme...
BBC撮影Don't laugh about the cover of TIME magazine, it could actually happen...well sorta. If everything goes right I'll be attending a technical college starting this fall, specializing in 'Digital Media design and production'. One of the assignments the...
スター・ウォーズの新ゲームDoubtful. To borrow a line from Paul Barnett (the most dangerous man in gaming) "WoW is to MMOs what The Beatles were to music. No one can 'kill' The Beatles." And speaking as a cranky old gamer, I honestly wouldn't want them to: WoW's accessibility...
スター・ウォーズの新ゲームI'll play this, but only if they have a sort of 'workin stiff' class: In stories like this I've always rooted for the poor shmuck that sorta got caught in the middle, is in MAY over his head, but manages to save the day when it really matters....Sadl...
ヨーコ リアルイメージver.Hmmmm, nope. I'll go for the anime version thanks. The real version above may be way up there on the Hawt-o-meter no mistake, but the anime verion is far more likable and brings out Ryoko's personality: underneath all her badassery and hotness, Ryoko...
日本のアニメバブル崩壊The anime scene right now is in the same self-destructive loop that the American comic industry was in about 20 years ago: The producers believe that X is the only thing that sells, so X is all that they produce, so of course X is the only thing that...
末永遥香漫画化Is it just me of do the current incarnation of the Suenaga sisters seem just a little bit too skinny? I prefer the older pictures where they seem to have a little more substance to them...
東京は夜の7時 : 雨Many MANY moons ago while perusing a secondhand store on the south side of Milwaukee I stumbled on a record album called 'Tokyo on a rainy night,' the cover of which looked surprisingly like this picture. Not buying is is something I've regretted my...
末永みらい漫画化Hmmmm, I like this idea! Our heroine could travel all over the world covering stories for her 'boss' Danny (who I see as wearing a killer business suit and his trademark stormtrooper helmet) and getting into all kinds of dangerous adventures along th...
クイーンズブレイドUgh, maybe I'm getting old but this looks waaaay too cheesecake for my tastes. Don't get me wrong, I like a nice healthy 2-d girl as much as the next lonely heterosexual guy, but I like a little plot with my cleavage...
キャットシットワンThis one's definately onmy 'must see' list. I personally hope that it's wildly successful and they put out action figures for it: Gun-wielding bunnies would look awesome in my cubicle at work :)
オンラインでテレビを見るI'm not sure that I could watch 100+ episodes of it, but Precure looks pretty good: It's kinda refreshing to see a magical girl who can whoop butt...
一週間の東京 36<i>The prices displayed here below the games is the price that Book Off will buy them from you - games that just came out will usually be purchased at a high price. I'm personally not fussed about packaging and get my games secondhand - sell them bac...
Stories like this just go to show the difference between Japanese and American parents. American parents are often accused of spoiling their kids, but 99.9999999999% of American parents simply would NOT put up with this level of BS.
And I would agree with you, if it hadn't happened so often and the cases weren't so similar. You know what they say about "Once is an accident, twice is a coincidence, three times...'
