MangaBlog: PR: Del Rey to publish Moyashimon and more

Mon, 29 Sep 2008 03:12:41 -0000

Back in May, when Moyashimon won a Kodansha Manga Award, I opined that it sounded pretty interesting and that Del Rey should publish it. Ahem. Apparently great minds think alike, because they have indeed licensed it (dropping the h to make it Moyasimon in English). Because a manga about bacteria is a guaranteed winner. There’s [...]

Tea Shop BeLoved: Moyashimon manga licensed

Sat, 27 Sep 2008 23:30:58 -0000

Getting brewed all over again. Moyashimon was one of the better surprises to come out of 2007, so it’s great to hear that the manga has been licensed by Del Rey. The 11 episodes that aired last year were quite entertaining, but I always felt like we got shortchanged. The characters and setting both felt loaded [...]

hashihime 橋姫: 46 New Fall Anime -- full previews (story, trailer, staff, cast, etc.)

Sat, 13 Sep 2008 22:37:34 -0000

With just over two weeks to go until the new season starts, it's time to think about what's coming. Tastes differ, but the shows I myself am most looking forward to are:the mysterious moe romances ef - a tale of melodies and Clannad - After Story the absurd comedy Hyakko (with Orikasa Fumiko and Hirano Aya) the bishoujo comedy Kannagi (directed by Yamakan, the original director of Lucky Star) the shoujo romantic comedy-dramas Nodame Cantabile Paris Chapter and Skip Beat! the space opera Tytania (directed by the director of Legend of the Galactic Heroes) Vampire Knight - Guilty, which I guess is romantic shoujo horror.However, many other shows look interesting, too: shounen romantic monster-fighting in Ga-rei Zero and Yozakura Quartet; a well-animated female buddy show set in Brazil in Michiko to Hatchin; shounen supernatural mystery in both Kurozuka (directed by the director of Death Note) and Chaos:HEAd (adapted by the writer of Death Note); two real mecha shows in Gundam00 II and Kurogane no Linebarrels; and others. And there are sure to be surprises.Click to go to a preview of each show:Series: |Akane-iro ni Somaru Saka |Casshern Sins |Chaos;HEAd |Clannad After Story |ef - a tale of melodies |Ga-rei Zero |Hakushaku to Yousei |Hokuto no Ken Raoh Gaiden Ten no Haoh |Hyakko |Jigoku Shoujo Mitsuganae |Junjou Romantika 2 |Kannagi |Kemeko Deluxe |Kidou Senshi Gundam 00 2nd Season |Kurogane no Linebarrels |Kuroshitsuji |Kurozuka |Macademi Wasshoi! |Michiko to Hatchin |Mouryou no Hako (Box of Goblins) |Nodame Cantabile Paris Chapter |Noramimi 2 |One Outs |Rosario to Vampire 2 |Shikabane Hime Aka |Shugo Chara! 2 |Skip Beat! |Tales of the Abyss |To Aru Majutsu no Index |Today in Class 5-2 |Toradora |Tytania |Vampire Knight: Guilty |Yozakura QuartetOVAs: |Goku Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei |Gunslinger Girl ��IL TEATRINO�� OVA |Ikoku Irokoi Romantan |Initial D Extra Stage 2 |Kamen no Maid Guy OVA |kissxsis |Mahou Sensei Negima! ~Shiroki Tsubasa Ala Alba~ |Seto no Hanayome OVA |Shoujo Sect ~Innocent Lovers~ |Switch |Zettai Shougeki ~Platonic Heart~ Akane-iro ni Somaru Saka(jp: あかね色に染まる坂, "A Hillside Dyed Red")In order to protect cute new transfer student Yuuhi Katagiri (Kugimiya Rie), Junichi Nagase is forced to kiss her. She screams, not understanding what is going on, and not knowing that her father has arranged for her to marry him. She doesn’t like him, and his little sister (Hirano Aya) wants her gone. Will they eventually get together?The cast is great -- and the role is apparently perfect for Kugimiya-san to become even more of a tsundere -- but I am worried by the fact that this is being made by the director and writer of that very awkward show School Days. That they did Amenaideyo before that make me even more worried.

Only Gotou Mai's name is familiar to me.But the main man is director Oonuma Shin, working under Shinbo Akiyuki. Writer Takayama Katsuhiko did KgNE and Hanbun no Tsuki ga Noboru Sora, as well as ef-a tale of memories. Music, as before, is largely by Tenmon, who does music for Shinkai Makoto's animes.

Writer Tomizawa Yoshihiko created Onmyou Taisenki and did the script for Starship Operators.Hirano Aya certainly gets my attention, but so do Orikasa Fumiko, Kuwashima Houko, and Neya Michiko (Riza Hawkeye in FMA). These people could create great characters together. And this show marks a kind of return to the limelight for seiyuu Ochiai Yurika, who is most famous so far for ToHeart2, some nude photo sessions she did as a teen, a heartbreaking personal blog updated several times a day, and an enormous number of posts about her on 2channel.seiyuus: Orikasa Fumiko, Neya Michiko, Ochiai Yurika, Hirano Aya, Kuwashima Houko, Horie Yui, Kaida Yuko.director: Fukuda Michio (storyboard specialist)writer: Tomizawa Yoshihiko (Onmyou Taisenki creator).animation: Nippon Animation.trailer. forum. subs: Strike-Subs?.wed 01 oct 26:35Jigoku Shoujo Mitsuganae(jp: 地獄少女三鼎, Hell Girl: Third Vessel)The third season of Jigoku Shoujo.

But she has a rival in a little sister guardian deity, who lives in a shrine across the river. Zenga-chan has woken up too and decides to become teen idol of the village, much to Nagi's dismay. (anidb)This show marks the return of Yamakan -- director Yamamoto Yutaka. He was an important force behind the Suzumiya Haruhi anime but was fired by Kyoto Animation after four episodes of directing Lucky Star. I think he may be a comic genius -- he did the SHnY ED and the Lucky Star ED, as well as episode 00 and the concert episode of SHnY -- so I am right there for this show.

Silent Moe with a meganekko fetish (She loves G.Ikari's glasses lolwut) put her VERY high on my moe list.BEHOLD! THE FIRST CHILD BORN OF THE WOMB OF AWESOME.And oddly enough, I have a 5-2-2 for this group. heh.And for group 16, LS dominance all the way. Shocking, but seeing as KyoAni has a rabid fanbase, it'll be safe to comment that this may not have gone unforseen, Shihou gets a fair share of the limelight in the ISML, but competition here will be a whole new ball game, due to the different demographic.And Haruhi is in, but she may not get far. After all, she has few redeeming moe moments, even within the doujin engine, where she's most commonly portayed now as a total victim of raep tendencies or drunken hazes.And for group 17, not many girls I like there, but I will say this:Yuno fans, stand by ready! Sunshine Sketch Power Activate! Divine BUSTERRRRRRRRRRRRR!Wait wha-?

Well, for me, given the strength of the Hayate no Gotoku camp, and the presence of relatively little strong opposition in this area, it was rather obvious who would be taking this particular round.Thank you ANIMESUKI AND AYA_REIKO.1-9th~1位　789票　マリア��ハヤテのごとく!(Maria@Hayate no Gotoku!)2位　741票　伊吹風子��CLANNAD(Ibuki Fuuko@CLANNAD)3位　731票　千葉紀梨乃��バンブーブレード(Chiba Kirino@Bamboo Blade)4位　580票　石動乃絵��true tears(Isurugi Noe@true tears)5位　503票　西園寺世界��School Days シリーズ(Saionji Sekai@School Days series)6位　489票　宮村みやこ��ef - a tale of memories.(Miyamura Miyako@ef - a tale of memories.)7位　436票　芳乃さくら��D.C.II 〜ダ・カーポII〜(Yoshino Sakura@D.C.II)8位　393票　小日向はやみ��H2O -FOOTPRINTS IN THE SAND-(Kohinata Hayami@H2O -FOOTPRINTS IN THE SAND-)9位　316票　マカ��アルバーン��ソウルイーター(Maka Alban@Soul Eater) Indeed, the power of Hayate no Gotoku and Meidos spread far.

FOR SAIMOE '08PIZZA HUT WILL BE PLEASED.Firstly, Tomoyo getting in was expected on my part, but I definetely did not see this coming. Beating out Rika Furude, albeit by a small Margin, is still a feat worthy of recognition. Not to mention lulz, and massive amounts of coffee spat.I had thought 2ch would be over their whole anti-key bit.

Scrumptious Blog: What Have They Done to Oryzae?!

Mon, 14 Jul 2008 12:06:54 -0000

I spotted this soon-to-be-released Oryzae cosplaying plushie (lolz) when I ordered a pair of Moyashimon cellphone strap in Amazon JP a few days ago, and it never fails to make me chuckle every time I see it :D Just look at that! Look at how cute and silly it is! :o ROFL.
