Hey, remember that time I made this the Naruto Anime Blog on April Fool’s Day (last year)? Well it kinda sorta becomes reality today with a review of the Naruto Uncut Boxed Set Vol. 4! Sorta…
Hey, everyone’s favorite psychopathic bitch is back in Suzuka Volume 2! Who am I referring to? Hint: her name is Suzuka.
Volume 6 of Nodame Cantabile has Nodame playing the French Horn, which is just called the Horn in places where people know what to call musical instruments (not here). I played the Horn in high school, and yep, Nodame’s playing it correctly. Though it looks somewhat small in scale…
Pita-Ten is short for “Pitari-Tenshi” which roughly translates to “needy stalker angel who won’t leave you alone for a minute! RESTRAINING ORDER GET!”
Gon: I remember the name well. It’s that damn cheap bonus character from Tekken 3! GONNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!
Disgaea-branded anime and manga were doing pretty badly for a while there. But then came Disgaea 2: The Manga! This, folks, is how you make Disgaea manga!
Fact: Going to an all-girl’s school makes all girls into lesbians.
Proof: The Last Uniform, Volume 1.
Where can I sign up?
So I got this PR thingy from ADV about a new promo on their Air site where you can download the first DVD (for not free). Sort of boring, and I didn’t really want to link to it, but when I went ahead to the “official site” I see this:
While it’s true that Kyoani worked on Air before before working on Haruhi Suzumiya, are they really the “creators?” More like the animators. Air is a creation of Key, while Haruhi Suzumiya is a light novel written by Nagaru Tanigawa and illustrated by Noizi Ito.
Maybe I’m being nitpicky, but it just seems like a pretty sad attempt to cash in on Haruhi fever. A more honest tagline would be “From the animation studio that brought you The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya!” And let’s not forget about Munto!
I’ve noticed that there’s not really very many industry blogs in the anime/manga industry. I knew of a few select blogs, mostly from small publishers, but virtually none from anime companies…
Today I’ll be checking out a few industry blogs and seeing how they can create a relationship between the customer and the publisher.
Junk: Record of the Last Hero, despite what you may think, is not a Rozen Maiden spinoff starring Suigintou. Though that’d totally be awesome now that I think about it…
