Now I can certainly get behind sparkles and bishonen! 2008-01-23 12:36:38 VISIT OUR FORUMS
There are lots of sub-genres of shojo manga but romance is hands down the biggest of them all. Even when the main plot isn’t just a love story, more often than not there is still a romance in it. So it comes as no real shock that most people relate the pursuit [...] Read more:behind
Rose of Versailles, the manliest man is really a woman! 2008-01-15 08:06:10 VISIT OUR FORUMS
I will refrain from just writing, “I love this show!”a 100 times over. But seriously, I do. It combines so many of my favorite elements: history, royalty, court intrigue, and cross-dressing sword swingers! You ever wonder why shojo shows have sparkles around characters? This show is why. So many shojo creators mention [...] Read more:woman
What the heck do Yashigani and Yandere mean? 2008-01-10 11:45:39 VISIT OUR FORUMS
Despite being a hikikomori, I was talking to a gothic lolita fujoshi otaku with a shota complex at an imouto cosplay cafe about her favorite moe aspect of the loli tsundere maid meganekko from a real robot mecha OAV gaiden based on the doujinshi eroge game she was playing that was thankfully not [...]
Narutaki & Hisu VS. 2007 2007-12-28 21:56:24 VISIT OUR FORUMS
This is pretty self-explanatory, we are looking at what we loved or hated from 2007. There was a lot going on, even with the decline in licenses in the U.S. there were still some great shows released! And Japan hasn’t been letting us down either. Not that is any surprise.
The Harold and [...]
Ouran High School Host Club, Water can’t hurt handsome men. 2008-03-31 13:54:22 It can’t. Just bounces right of them. I have seen it happen. Host Club is best summed up as the shojo comedy styling of female Kyon and her all male harem.
A complete parody of everything that is a staple in shojo manga all crammed together in one ridiculous show.
Haruhi Fujioka is the poorest student [...] Read more:School

Zero Day Warez! 2008-04-02 19:32:56 If you haven’t seen this news…where have you been? This is very big deal and could have many interesting results. This is all speculation at the moment.
Apparently Gonzo has decided to use YouTube, Crunchyroll, and BOST to show their two latest series here in America. We will be able to see subtitled episodes of [...]
Zero Day Warez Duex! 2008-04-08 11:34:55 This is such a great experiment and am glad to be apart of their first go at it!
I was surprisingly impressed with the titles they chose to be the test case for streaming video in America. It seems like they did not randomly select two titles out of a hat and hope they work [...]
Gundam 00 Season 1, Don’t judge a series by its bishie character designs. 2008-04-15 05:57:25 In the future, the world has depleted almost all available fossil fuel reserves and the resulting energy crisis has led to the creation of gigantic solar collectors.

Hataraki Man, Three times the speed of a normal worker! 2008-04-21 19:52:56 I had been interested in this series for a while. It probably started when I learned a little about it after seeing some of the artwork displayed at Kinokuniya.
Hiroko Matsukata is an editor at the entertainment magazine Weekly JIDAI. She is a workaholic that tends to even unnerve the other workaholics at her office. [...] Read more:Three
New York Comic-Con 2008 2008-04-27 07:47:54 VISIT OUR FORUMS
I know this will be hard to believe but my geekdom spreads further than anime and manga. In fact, I was a comic book reader from about fourth grade. I also read fantasy literature. So Comic
-Con was all sorts of my hobbies mashed up together and actually I spent most of my [...] Read more:New York

Nodame Cantabile by Tomoko Ninomiya
When John Fuller of New York’s branch of Kinokuniya was asked which manga sold best in Japanese but did not do anywhere near as well in English his answer was Nodame Cantabile. At first he thought it was because there was no English language version of [...] Read more:Anime
Spring Falls Out 2008-05-05 13:40:11 VISIT OUR FORUMS
April showers bring May flowers and new anime series. There is no way that Narutaki and I can watch every new anime series coming out this season but we will try to hit up whatever looks interesting and report back to you our loyal readers on what is worth watching this spring. Plus, [...] Read more:Spring

Evangelion 1.0 You Are Not Alone, We mustn’t runaway! 2008-05-20 16:34:48 Narutaki and I spent a good deal of time wondering if we should even attempt this article. Neon Genesis Evangelion
is such a loaded beast that writing anything directly related to it is a dangerous subject. You can talk about any of the alternate universe or spin off materials like Neon Genesis Evangelion: Angelic Days [...] Read more:Not Alone
Death Note the Movie, I Needs More L 2008-05-26 06:24:10 So, all around the country, for two special nights, Death Note
the live-action movie was playing in theaters. I was not about to miss this as I quite enjoyed this movie and its sequel. I love the chance to see movies on the big screen, I always wish I could do it more often. [...] Read more:Needs
We are moving! 2008-05-28 06:50:24 Well, well so here we are. We are switching over to a new server! How exciting! This is being done for a lot of reasons. Most important of them being the fact the old server may not be up for very much longer, but the problem is I don’t know how long. So, I’d [...]
