Real Life is working me particularly hard these days. I anticipated this, and posted one of my two-posts-a-week early, but I am left with one more to go. I am afraid this is it.
Unlike many other bloggers of the realm, I don't actually mind the endlessness of the eights that have been the theme of [...]

Great news for those of you that play the english eroge games from JList, JAST is partnering with Nitroplus to translate and release Nitroplus eroge games.
What this means for the eroge gamers, including myself, is that there will be much more high quality eroge games available to all outside of Japan. And the best part is that it will be translated into english text for those that haven't mastered the Japanese language just yet. No word yet if the games will be uncensored just like the rest of the games which JList supplies, but i'm sure that they will come uncensored.
Excerpt from the announcement:
JAST USA President Peter Payne announced the deal at the 2009 Anime Expo bishoujo games industry content panel along with details of the first of several Nitroplus games to be released in English, Zanma Taisei Demonbane (release title pending).
“As the leading producer of adult ‘dating sim’ games and visual novels in English, JAST USA is excited to take the bold step of forming this partnership, devoted to the release of high quality, English language versions of Nitroplus products,” Mr. Payne said.
This is indeed great news which I'm very happy about and looking forward to see the release of Nitroplus games in English. Will look into the Demonbane game from Nitroplus and see how the story and game mechanics is.

What's the significance of one country's independence, when Shinji defended all of humanity from extinction. His perfect blend of awkward hormones and daddy issues made him an amazing pilot. Sure, some would argue that the "Angels" were here first, or that "they" were attempting to save Earth... but those people are pinko commies if you ask me.I'm glad we gave them an old fashion butt kicking, via a unique, trillion dollar mecha.That said, now time for us all to feel sad about the whole "1.01 being released in the fall" and "1.11 being released next spring" thing. While I'm all for stop gap solutions, I don't understand why we are even getting 1.01 in the first place. If the differences are all remastering, then we can assume that 1.11 is, in fact, superior. We're just being told to buy an inferior, DVD only release this fall, so that we can buy a updated version on Blu-Ray later.Gia, the FUNimation Panel is in like... an hour. Convey our nerd rage!

The first of the new series that I wanted to catch started with Needless. Without even viewing the trailer, and just looking at the art and the storyline, this show already gave me Tengen Toppa Gurren-Lagann vibes, or those of an epic (and really ridiculous) anime. In other words, an anime to be taken in [...]

I've always had access acrylic pieces and a sawing machine which we use to produce one of our goods. And I've been thinking how cool it would be if I had a nice looking display kit for my models. Since leaving them hidden in my closet kind of defeats the purpose I bought them. Then seeing that there was a few discarded acrylics lying around at the factory and today was an off-day at work (can someone say FFFRRRRRRREEEEEDDDDDDDOOOOOMMMMM!!!??? Lol!) I finally got my lazy arse off the chair and my eyes off the computer. Went to the factory and did my very own display box. Funny thing is, first piece I cut and damn! Already a mistake. Lol! Had the bottom base of the box cut too short. Hence the white color piece lying across the base of the display box. To "lift" the cover so that the top will align with the the box. Else the cover will just drop inside. Lol! -.-"What better way to take photos than to have my 2 new wai-fus pose in it. :p Without cover With cover onShana Miku Unfortunately,Shana and Miku will both be going back into the closet for now. That's cause I have an idea in my head for recreating this. Lol! Let's hope the result will come out all right. First thing to do then would be a background print."Suh Beh Teh God Knows..." - Haruhi

Update Gundams: ( Musha Gundam) (Pink Zaku) Cross play: (Girl Luffy) (Man Yoko) (Girl Pyramid Head) Okay, you'll just have to trust me that this pyramid head is a girl... thus, not only is it crossplay, its attractive. (Man Bunny Haruhi!) Nice guitar... Tentacles: Nothing... still Cosplay from something not yet out: ( Oerba Dia Vanille/Final Fantasy XIII) Cosplay with a prop larger than its user: (Summoning Stone/World of Warcraft) Okay, I guess its more of a costume, less of a prop. That said, I'll give credit to the person who decided to cosplay a summoning stone. ( Ikkaku Madara) Just kinda an obvious cosplay, still cool. Costume that requires 2 or more people to operate: None yet. Cosplay from a series before 2000: ( Princess Sapphire/ Princess Knight) Wow, obscure and awesome. Nice work. Today's Assignments:A) Tentacles (still)B) Huge Cosplay (still)C) Buff guy without shirt-playD) Anime Vice user cosplay E) Open ended prompt: The Odd Couple Home Team: Tomorrow is going to be an IP free for all, so if you have any requests (pictures from Fist of the North Star, Romeo X Juliet, etc.) leave a few in the comments.

Amidst all the petitions and boycotts of the internet about the sudden revealation and release of L4D2, it’s actually quite a shocker that the amount of pre-orders that L4D2 is racking in is more than the amount of pre-orders that L4D had received.
According to a Valve representative, the amount of pre-orders that they are getting [...]
