I bought this manga about a year ago as a challenge in a forum. The challenge was to randomly pick up the first volume of any manga at a bookstore and buy it without knowing what it's about. Thank goodness that I picked a short series because when I start reading a manga, I have to finish it. Hikkatsu was created by Yu Yagami the mind behind the manga series, Those Who Hunt Elves. The story is about this guy called Shota who is trying to fix the world because there are geomagnetic abnormalities that causes all technology to brake down. Shota is trying to perfect the Repair Blow technique, punches and kicks things to fix them which does not work at all. He says that everything has a spot that if it is hit, it can be fixed and he is trying to use this technique to fix the world.This manga is not going to have a compelling storyline and it is something not to take serious. It is just a simple manga that you would pick up after reading Berserk.I will that the manga is mediocre as a shounen series and there is no character development.This manga was published by go! Comi and you can find it at your local bookstore and justmanga.com.

I have been sick for the last two days and it sucks. it started when with just a sneeze and I thought to myself that it was my allergies and I ignored it but now I have a runny nose, a bad cough, and I'm body hurts. I blame the Florida weather for the reason I'm sick. For the last few weeks the weather has been a mess, one day the temperature is at 90 degrees Fahrenheit and the next day the temperature is at 40 degrees Fahrenheit. So pretty much during the night time I don't know what to wear for when I go to bed because the weather decides how it is going to bed when I'm sleeping. Damn global warming.These are my weapons to fight that cold, tea and off brand cold medicine. So, do you have any home remedies that help fight my cold?

AMV hell is the funnies series of AMVs I have seen. AMV hell is a series of AMVs, parody of commercials, movies, and anime. If you don't know what an AMV is, click here. The clips in AMV hell are made by multiple people and each clip is about 5 to 45 seconds long. The first two AMVs they made are about 5 minutes long but after that the rest of the AMVs are over an hour long. They have made 7 AMV hell videos so far, four of them you can find in Youtube and the other 3 you have to go to their website to download because those videos have hentai in them. Below I have the first 4 videos for you enjoyment.AMV Hell<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/_lxakVAaAJY&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x3a3a3a&amp;color2=0x999999"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/_lxakVAaAJY&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x3a3a3a&amp;color2=0x999999" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>AMV Hell 2<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/VPpolLyU6J4&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x3a3a3a&amp;color2=0x999999"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/VPpolLyU6J4&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x3a3a3a&amp;color2=0x999999" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>AMV Hell 3<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/3aTgINExt2w&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x3a3a3a&amp;color2=0x999999"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/3aTgINExt2w&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x3a3a3a&amp;color2=0x999999" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>AMV Hell 4<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/GqEWahV7yw4&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x3a3a3a&amp;color2=0x999999"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/GqEWahV7yw4&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x3a3a3a&amp;color2=0x999999" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

I have been noticing a trend with the release of Anime DVDs lately, a lot of new series have been coming out as box sets. However, there are some companies that are still releasing single volume DVDs. The one company that is releasing box sets left and right is FUNimation. FUNimation has released Fate/Stay Night, Shakugan no Shana, and Zero no Tsukaima as box sets, which is a surprise to me because they could have a larger profit by releasing single volumes. They have been also been releasing box sets of older anime like Air Gear and Yu Yu Hakusho for under $29.99.here is a random picture of a cute anime girl for those who have A.D.D.Bandai Entertainment and Viz Media are still releasing single volumes for those who want can't wait 6 months for a box set. I can wait for a box set but if it's a series that I like, I will buy the single volumes. Sometimes it is a lot cheaper to buy the box sets unless you are going to buy the box set for Neon Genesis Evangelion. So, do you buy the single volume DVDs or do you wait for the box set.

I was writing my next post and at the same time I was surfing Youtube. I stumbled upon a sample video of the Zero no Tsukaima English Dub. I stopped writing that I was going to post to show everyone the horror that I saw with my very own eyes. I warning you to remove all small children and expecting mothers from the room before you see this travesty. You have been warned. <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/2xvyABW0lgg&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/2xvyABW0lgg&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>When I saw this, I thought to myself that some higher power was punishing me for something I did but everyone is getting punished. I can't believe that Geneon did such a horrible job on the dub and that Funimation is going to distribute it. I will buy the DVD boxset but I'm going to watch it with the Japanese dub. What are your feeling on this "dub"?

Well, The new Winter anime season schedule has been reviled to the public and to be honest, it looks good but not great. I really don't see that many new anime that is appealing to me because some of them are not getting my attention.I will watch:Queen's Blade - I heard of the games and I have seen the figures, I should give the anime a chance.Afro Samurai - I like the original series and I hope that when it comes to America, Samuel L. Jackson does the voice for Afro again.Kurokami - The plot sounds interesting.What I may pick up:Asu no Yoichi - The plot sounds interesting.Chrome Shelled Regios - I don't know why it got my attentionZ Mazinger - I'm a big fan of Go Nagai's work and Mazinger.Viper's Creed - It reminds me of Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex.So, what are you going to watch this winter season?

I was surfing Hobby Search today and I saw this very cute figure that I knew that I have to get. She is Shirayuki Mizore from Rosary and Vampire. I have not seen Rosary and Vampire because it has not been on my radar and I mostly get figures from the series I have watched but I may just bend the rule for her because she is so cuteShe is also a cast off figureShe does include this extra left handShe will be released late June and you can preorder her at Hobby Search. Do you buy figures from anime/manga/video game series you have not seen before?

I was looking at my wishes list of the figures I want over at Tsuki-board and it seems that the ones I really want are going to be very hard to find at a reasonable. It's interesting that I could have bought them but I was always saying to myself that I should get it later. I'm going to tell you how close I was to buy these figures. I think I'm the last Haruhi fan that does not have this figure. I remember that I added this figure to my shopping cart like over 5 times but then I would change my mind and not get it. I was going to get this figure but every online store I checked was sold out. I had this figure on my wishlist for over 8 months at discountanimedvd.com and I was finally going to buy her but you should know what happened to them by now.I actually had this figure in my hands when I was attending at Metrocon and I was going to buy her but I got candy bikini Shana instead.So, has any thing like that has happened to you before or am I just unlucky?

I think that engrish is the funniest thing that comes from Japan. Many people find it funny because of the really bad grammar and misspelling. Today, I will be posting pictures of very funny engrish pictures. All of the pictures are from Engrish.com.
