    Busy busy busy!! So much has been going on these past few weeks, I don't even know where to begin. Okay, first off, GaijinWorks helped launch Sunsoft's new U.S. website, SunsoftGames.com, on December 3rd. We originally wanted to launch on November 22nd but were just too busy with other things, so pushing it back a week and a half gave us time to play with and tweak the design and then edit the forum templates so they would match stylistically. I think it still needs a few small tweaks here and there but overall I think it looks pretty good.

    Wow, December all ready? Didn't I just take down the Christmas tree last month? Thanksgiving was nice. We drove down to visit my parents Wednesday afternoon and stayed until Saturday. Treese bought this new card game called Scrabble Slam because my mom and grandmother both love Scrabble. And it turned out to be a fun game as well. We usually go over to my aunt's for Thanksgiving dinner, but this time they were visiting other family so we all had dinner at my grandparents. Oh, and that morning I also went to visit my other grandfather who is recovering from surgery.

    Hot on the heels of “Ultraman Cider“, Japanese beverage maker Dydo is quick to release “Kamen Cider”, an obvious play on the words “Kamen Rider”, more commonly known as the Mask Riders to fans outside of Japan. Each can comes with a colorful, extravagant design of the respective rider’s front costume and power belt, as well as bite-sized Masked Rider/Shocker trivia, guaranteed to send fans into a morbid collection frenzy. What are you waiting for ?? My all time favourite Rider has always been Super One, but Black’s design isn’t looking too…

( the title refers to the many sights and scenery of places where he used to play ) For those unfamiliar with his work,  Oga-san is the renowned background artist who gave us such unforgettable backdrops in many a Ghibli film like Totoro, Princess Mononoke and Spirited Away, just to name a few. This is Kazuo-san’s most personal artbook to date, for all the illustrations are based on memories of his childhood, growing up in the villages of…

    In its fifth year and something of a tradition by now, this is a post I always look forward to writing because it presents the unique opportunity to re-examine all the films I’ve seen over the course of the year, and thus revel in their collective brilliance and greatness. ( in between the occasional cinematic dud ) Total tally for films watched in 2009 stands at 45 in theatres and 78 on dvds/blu-ray, making that a total of 123. (You can see the entire list here.) That averages out to at least 2 films per week, often more. Ever since 2006 I’ve been watching fewer films with each…

    Midway through a screening of Anno Hideaki’s hypnotic “Evangelion : 2.0 You Can(not) Advance” last weekend a steady and reaffirming wave of realization came over me – that while American animation studios like Pixar, Blue Sky and Dreamworks dominate the 3D animation market, marrying high production values with technical achievement and superb artistry, no one in the world can even touch the Japanese when it comes to traditional 2D animation films.  And rightfully so, because boy, these chaps are good. Really good. Having established the basic premise in the first…

    Reiko Yoshida is in charge of Chu-Bra!!’s series composition. Among other things, Yoshida was in charge of the series composition of Kaleido Star, a show that I really enjoyed overall. I feel a lot of similarities between Chu-Bra!! and Kaleido Star, which is natural given they share the same series composer. Both shows belong to the heart-warming fight for your dreams school of anime. The similarity I see is more about the series tone and drive, excepting Chu-Bra!!’s fanservice, instead of pointing to any of the other elements that they share. A lot of the things told to young…

    Sora Kasugano has a pensive air around her. She would be just another character from an eroge, except for the softly contrasted monochromatic colors of her skin, clothing, and hair caught my eye. I find all of the Yosuganosora characters illustrated by Hashimoto Takashi attractive, mainly for how well the line work and color palette match so well. Houjun Otoyama sculpted Sora based on this illustration. The adaptation of that illustration to the figure, particularly in her body language is well done. Otoyama caught the pensive body language as well as the physical shape and tone. Her hips and…

  • Figures and Pants

    While scrounging the bargain bins at a few online retailers, I came across this MegaHouse figure of Iori Manase, one of those cute IdolMaster characters. It struck me that the figure was odd. Iori was wearing pants, which is quite uncommon for scale figures and to some extent female character designs in anime, or at least among the characters that get made into figures. Just looking at the figures I have, only two are wearing honest to goodness pants, Fate/Zero Saber and Kino. For the rest it’s skirts, dresses, plug-suits, swimwear, and the occasional pair of shorts. It’s not…

    In some ways, Paprika is a standard thriller with an unconventional bomb. Something has gotten into the wrong hands and if the protagonists don’t wrest it back to safety, then something catastrophic will damage the world. The thing the protagonists need to reclaim is the DC Mini (DreamCast Mini?), a dream navigator that has been stolen and has gone social or viral over the human network, infecting reality with dreamed chaos. Master storytellers are often accused of finding a great story and then telling that story over and over again throughout their careers. It would be fair to say…

    Quoth the Raven: “In the name of love, What more in the name of love…” Or something like that. Princess Tutu was an interesting watch for me. Though it was one of the titles I filed into the back of my mind as “stuff that I should probably watch” for years, it took outside intervention in the form of the Reverse Thieves’ Secret Santa Project for me to do so. When watching it, I was initially disoriented with the storybook setting where the fantastic and realistic combined, though it was an interesting premise. And it was hard for me to get into it at the start, especially with how…

    I can say that I’ve been a fan of anime since I realized that animation from Japan existed with the advent of Toonami around 1996. However, I feel like I only started being “serious” about this hobby around the time I started college in 2003 (you know, with a computer, an anime club, and greater avenues to access anime more than just what the TV said). So I can’t say that I’ve “been around” even as much as some of my fellow anime bloggers (or even my co-writers, I believe) regarding diving into the hobby, much less all of the fans out there who’ve been around for decades. But…

The reason is because I had such a hard time trying to decide which are the best in my opinion and I ended up with 12 great shows that I don’t have the heart to just kick any of them off the list anymore. Only series that started this year (sequels included), or series that started late last year, with at least half the episodes aired in 2009 is considered. Of course, only series that I’ve watched are also considered. I can’t judge something I’ve not watched, after all. Also, this list…

    Saki is strong in Mahjong, no doubt about it. But she’s just upgraded herself to downright scary in the latest episode 19. I thought it would be hard to top what she did last week. Saki pulled off another triple kang followed by rinshan kaihou, only this time it’s a flush as well and have to be paid fully by Koromo for discarding the tile that allowed the rinshan kaihou, making Saki the winner. The scary part? Looks like she just had an orgasm… She was smiling all the time in a very creepy, even sadistic way. To top it off, she was telling Koromo how fun it was to pwn her…

Initial planning has me in Japan for at least 2-3 weeks, with me leaving the US around March 9-10th and going back around April 3-4th, depending.

Surprisingly the last time I did a “major” wallpaper switch was back in July of 2009; about six months which isn’t too bad for me, I guess.

I won’t go into the details but much to say, it felt good when I eventually returned back to the States.

  • 2 of my videos of Ayu in London!

    Two of the videos I took from Ayu in London. These are the longest ones. Please watch in HD if you can :-) The first video is quite dark, but you can see her through the flashes. The second video is by daylight and has a very good view of Ayu! <3 First video from Friday evening January 29th: Second video from Saturday afternoon January 30th: Powered by b2evolution.

  • My stuff signed by Ayu!

    peter
    2 Feb 2010 | 2:33 pm
    Here are the pictures of my stuff that was signed by Ayu in London, over the course of 2 weekends. The first two are from the first weekend. My Arena Tour 2007 fan (my first concert tour that I went to) and the CD+DVD version of Days/GREEN. It is a large CD box so it has a large surface which can be easily signed, and it's a cardboard case around the 2 cd cases. So I can just use the cardboard box to frame ;p The last two are from the second weekend. My Countdown Live banner and a cardboard with a personalized autograph. I consider the banner now to be complete being signed by Ayu herself…

  • Back to London ^^

    peter
    28 Jan 2010 | 10:39 am
    Okay, I'm going back to London tomorrow, until Sunday morning. Since it was kind of confirmed that Ayu will be staying until Saturday, maybe Sunday. I will be trying to take more pictures and/or videos. I have a better strategy now and learning from previous mistakes To other fans in London, see you there!Powered by b2evolution.

  • Our flower bouquet for Ayu

    peter
    24 Jan 2010 | 4:04 pm
    Sunday afternoon we were left with only 5 people (me, one girl from France and 2 girls and 1 guy from Spain), and we decided to buy Ayu a bouquet of flowers and put a small message in it with our names and countries on it. Since Ayu didn't come out (and later we found out that she wouldn't have come out at all as she was feeling ill), lovely Stan-chan accepted our gift and would give it to her. And here's the bouquet + message: Powered by b2evolution.

    I'm in London now, and I saw Ayu today!!! kyaaaaaaaaa! The story for today. First we went to the studio by 12 o'clock, but noone was there. Figured she wouldn't record any songs on the weekend. So we went to the hotel where she's staying and arrived there at about 13h30. Then at 14h, 3 big black vans arrived. And japanese people started to come out, and then I recognized her staff and ayu's friend (PJ boss?), but I hadn't seen Ayu, but there was a person who had gone into the hotel first so that was probably her. I recognized many of her staff, so it really was them. Then we started to wait…

  • Ohigetan

    Artefact
    8 Feb 2010 | 9:09 pm
    Ohigetan, 尾髭丹, is an artist whose erotic illustrations can succinctly be summarised as “voluptuous girls having meaty, juicy sex,” a genre sure to incite much interest among some circles, although for non-fans of the genre he may take things a little far. Ohigetan himself is the usual cypher, describing himself as a “self-proclaimed illustrator” and having published a number of erotic doujinshi. Follow his works on the Channel, Pixiv or his homepage.

    It seems some K-ON! otaku are irredeemably gripped by Tsumugi-mania – here one can be seen compulsively buying Mugi Takuan, with at least 100 packets visible and two boxes at the top of the frame. And yet this is but the latest in a long line of such afflictions… Mugi-CD: Boxes of “Mugicha” (Mugi-tea, a pun based on the Japanese word for roasted barley tea, mugicha): Possibly slightly more disturbing than the equivalent in Mio-mania.

    8 Feb 2010 | 3:04 pm
    Yoko Littner is cosplayed here with volume and verisimilitude in her usual skimpy ensemble, for once managing to outdo the 2D version in colourfulness. Demonstrating perhaps that overenthusiastic Photoshop usage is not just the preserve of Japanese cosplayers and their photographer minions. Perhaps an occasion to thankful no originals are included.

    Lolicon mascot Pedobear (or Kuma in his original 2ch incarnation) has been dubbed the 2010 Vancouver Olympic mascot by one factually challenged newspaper. The Polish rag apparently swiped the first image displayed on Google Image Search to illustrate its article, little realising that Pedobear had seamlessly infiltrated himself into the picture, looking practically normal amongst the freakish trio of genuine mascots. At least they weren’t writing about iconic Canadian landmarks.

The article, translated from the pages of top Japanese business rag Weekly Toyo Keizai: Even the representative of the Japanese content industry, the anime industry, is at its wits end over struggling DVD sales. The management at an anime production company holds forth on the subject: “In hard times people keep a tight reign on their purse strings. 2-3 years ago, if it was a…

  • Hato Rami’s Shooting Star + Travel Notification

    icie
    9 Feb 2010 | 4:27 am
    shooting star is a Black Rock Shooter fanbook by Hato Rami (Hato no Tamago), released as part of her Comic Market 77 bundle. Actually to classify this as a book would be pretty misleading, since it’s more like a leaflet, two pieces of paper, folded, one nested in the other, making for a total of 8 pages. That said, it is full colour, and the centre spread is pretty outstanding. Now, due to recent developments thanks to GSC and that ilk, I am now unsure of my position regarding Black Rock Shooter. Aesthetically, I am still very curious as to how artists interpret that work, but the sheer…

    7 Feb 2010 | 5:30 am
    Fujitsubo Machine is, for all intents and purposes, and as far as I know, an Itou Noizi doujin circle. I had inklings of another illustrator involved in this circle, but suffice to say, it’s Itou Noizi mostly. I’m not actually sure how many pies Itou Noizi has her fingers in, but usually the stuff coming out of Fujitsubo Machine during Comiket is pretty good, and Comiket 77’s 2010 F’s Works Calendar is no exception, even if it’s fairly short/small. At full A4 size, this 7 pager (6 pages if you exclude the atogatari) calendar comes in a translucent file (which incidentally is hard to…

  • Wind Mail’s Petite fatal 3rd

    icie
    5 Feb 2010 | 4:28 am
    Wind Mail (An2A)’s last work quite blew me away, and judging by the comments on that particlar post, it impressed many readers too. Petite fatal 3rd is a follow-up on Wind Mail’s series of books, so there is actually no continuity from the Monomind Remains Gensou Kaikyou booklet, which is a pity, because I would have loved to see more of that photo+art stuff. So Petite fatal 3rd, released C77, is just An2A’s stand-alone illustrations, and as always, it’s Touhou themed. As it’s a fairly thin book at 16 pages, including the covers, Wind Mail seems to have taken the liberty of pushing…

    3 Feb 2010 | 5:32 am
    komizumiko (コミズミコ) is a new artist being covered on this blog, though obviously I have been following him/her as one of my bookmarked artists for some time. Stylistically, komizumiko does very cute illustrations with big round eyes, shaded in a conventional style. I’d probably put him/her in the Tokumi Yuiko camp, if only as a convenient and lazy way of classifying this artist’s general look. For Comic Market 77, komizumiko released blue colors whic is an entire full-colour book dedicated to the character Kisaragi Chihaya from THE IDOLM@STER. You’d have to be a pretty big fan…

    Kaedena Akino (楓菜あきの) released Bubble Light (32 pages, full colour, A4 size) during Comic Market 77. She is an artist I have yet to cover, and in fact, this was one of the random acquisitions from Toranoana. I feel it is quite important to not just rest on stuff by famous or familiar artists, outstanding though they be, but to also challenge ourselves by exploring smaller names, as well as other styles. After all, there’s nothing too elusive about stuff everyone knows about! Personally, it’s also about pushing the envelope, seeing the sorts of character designs which appeal to…

    The event is going on right now and thanks to Danny Choo, we are getting live feeds and images straight from the event. For those who maybe don't know, Wonfes is the largest figure and custom figure kit convention in Japan. Most if not all of the major anime figure manufacturers are there showing off the newly announced pre-orders as well as some surprises.If you've been keeping track of the numbers on your Good Smile Company Nendoroid, you'd know they are close to their 100th figure. That figure has been announced and it's actually a non-anime character...Mickey Mouse. You heard me right,…

Sadly, Good Smile Company decided to tell only HobbySearch and Amiami of this figure and they simply bought them all -_- and pre-orders were sold out...before even I could get dibs on them (another even madder face -_-).Well, thankfully Good Smile Company just announced a second production release and I wasted no time in making sure MY STORE gets the rights to sell her too -_-. ...Yeah, there ARE other anime stores out there that are legit, guys.Anyways, this is of course the…

    Of course many have you have heard about the iPad (and god knows this is probably the 1 millionth post about it on the web.) I was busy posting about it on my other personal blog as the information was coming in during the Apple conference. The first thing that comes to our minds when seeing it is; how great would reading manga be on it? Also, there are the Kindle, the Nook, and the Sony Readers out there that for the most part, haven't captured the hearts of manga fans and the lack of manga on them is proof.Now, here's the more important question. Will this be good or bad for the manga…

Good Smile Company has announced these extra rare figures. The first being the Tohou Project Nendoroid Izayoi Sakuya figure.The second of course being the Figma Kirisame Marisa figure.Both are super rare and will probably be on display at the upcoming Wonfest convention in Japan. Sadly, due to their rarity and exclusivity, their price is a bit higher than your…

  • Team Four Star: DBZ Abridged Season 2

    It's been some time coming. The very funny work-for-free voice actors of Team Four Star had some hurtles to go through over the past number of months; stuff I'm actually familiar with. Their videos were doing insanely good and for good reason. The DBZ Abridged parody is a thing of genius. Even the American voice actors of DBZ loved their series and they got the go-ahead to continue their not-for-profit clips by FUNimation. Then came the miscommunication with content creator, Toei who unknowingly shot themselves in the foot by banning TFS's original Youtube page. Reason why it was a suicidal…

Well, « girl x weapon » is always a great combination, but this one even more, at least in my opinion ^^; And I love her gaze, so serious, like if she was about to blow up something disproportionately bigger. Well, Mine Yoshizaki’s touch is easily recognizable, and that was a bit why I got attracted by this figure, which is beside my usual standards regarding figure manufacturers. FYI, this one is distributed by Lilics, and based on Cerberus Project works. Sharpened-eye…

She dragged Saber Lion along with her, and gave some milk as a reward… but it seems this is not enough. Since I had the background already set, plus Raspberyl and « Gaaoooo » Saber around, I went for another « after school » shot. And actually, Lylibellule’s latest story featuring Nao-sensei nendoroid inspired me for those two pictures, as it reminded me I had the nendoroid playsets lying around…

    You know what today is, right folks? It’s podcast day! This week, we’ve deviated slightly from the norm to review the live action adaptation of the 20th Century Boys manga. I, for one, was surprised when I watched it and didn’t immediately vomit in disgust, as is my custom with live action anime adaptations (specifically, DragonBall and Sailor Moon). You might recognize today’s image from a previous post, but it’s appropriate here, so I’ve used it again! Ha HA! Anyway, please enjoy this week’s offering to the podcast gods. We’ve got a few…

    Anime news may not be that exciting, but it’s exciting to us! Sadly, there’s not even a lot of interesting things to report this week. Ponyo did NOT get nominated for the Oscars, and I have no link for that. I’m just sad. As for the rest of the recent news: For all you J-rock/Visual Kei people: X-Japan was invited to play on the main stage at Lollapalooza this year. That’s a big deal! It would be the first Japanese band to play main stage at that semi-famous show. Appropriate to next week’s review: Viz pictures is planning to release the second 20th Century Boys…

  • Unko-san, an anime with characters made of poo, might offend Koreans

    Ramsey Isler
    17 Aug 2009 | 9:54 am
    For todays “wtf” moment, I turn to this odd article on a new anime called Unko-san, which apparently is about poo and Korean stereotypes. What do you expect? When there is an anime revolving around poop people you know there is going to be an uproar. Especially when one of their poop towns people resembles a stereotype of your culture. Koreans suggest that a character named “Kim Ben” (“Ben” is a pun on the Japanese character for excrement), who loves kimchee, has narrow eyes and is “easily angered,”. More pics and video at…

    While poking around the Internets, I ran into this odd little video “D-flux are two Chinese originated designers Nghi and Sterra, who create fashion inspired by manga comics and science fiction. The D-flux couple meet up for park and club performances, where dressed up friends stage mean fashion fights. D-flux clothes are used in pop videos and advertisements. All outfits are made to measure by the designers.” So, these designers meet up and start play fighting in these odd plastic outfits. It’s kind of like LARPing (live action role playing), but with Asian people dressed…

    Total lack of Yamamoto-sensei in this episode makes me sad. ;_; Koume kinda made up for it though. Should’ve translated it to “fuck me” to make the impact even more better. Seriously, what are you teaching your child, Sakura-senpai! The references to Evangelion, FMA and Kamina’s cameo in this episode were pretty random though. Still, it does cement Hii-chan’s reputation and future otaku and cosplay queen status even further… Almost can’t wait for next week, especially with this in the preview…. ©2010 Kurogane's Anime Blog.

    A while back, I reviewed a movie called “Big Dreams Little Tokyo.” The director just released another film, “White on Rice,” and sent me a review copy.

He was recently divorced, and apparently is planning on moving out once he gets remarried. The problem is that Jimmy isn’t exactly marriage-material.

Apparenlty Sadako really only had feelings of respect and admiration for the guy, and the guy kinda actually liked her. But come on! He chooses to sit by her in class, goes up directly to her to talk with her, etc. They could really just hook it up already! But maybe that’s unrealistic since they’re moody high school kids with insecurities. Also, I think that Ryu guy wants…

Coraline (Henry Selick) Fantastic Mr. Fox (Wes Anderson) La princesa y el Sapo (John Musker, Ron Clements) El secreto de Kells (Tomm Moore) Up (Pete Docter) En cambio Up está no solo nominada a mejor película animada sino también es la primera…

  • My Experience With eBay

    7 Feb 2010 | 6:19 am
    Several months ago, I decided to finally, after years of contemplation, create an eBay account to get some Anime swag. I didn’t think it was necessary to get an account with eBay, but after seeing an awesome Akira shirt that my brother was looking for for years, I just had to have it. Along with the shirt, I found to my amazement, a Death Note Shitajiki that was made of epic win (from a fangirl’s point of view, anyways). The pencil board came from a different seller, however… After a couple of weeks, the Akira shirt finally came with no problems. My first successful…

    3 Feb 2010 | 1:46 pm
    The first entry in the Gundam 00 universe was released not too long ago. It did occur to me many months ago that it was going to be released, it wasn’t until ProdigalNick showed off new Manga releases at BBAMAJAM (and I call myself a Gundam fan). I now have a personal copy of Gundam 00F. It’s a side-story (yay!) to the Gundam 00 series, following the story of “the other Gundam Meister”, Fon Spaak. Gundam 00F takes place during the events of the main Gundam 00 series. It follows Fon, who appears to have been punished for just another Gundam pilot, or for simply being…

    Not an actual Unicorn… but the eagerly awaited Gundam OVA series, Gundam Unicorn will be released in March. It is the first instance of Gundam in the new decade, and the first Universal Century series in 15 years. This is not only limited to Gundam Unicorn, but there’s more. Anime News Network announced two weeks ago that Bandai is making a move on their “Bandai Channel” service for viewers outside of Japan. If you remember a post I made before the end of 2009 of how 2010 would be the year of Gundam? I was about right in my revelations! Starting in March, not only will…

But think of it as a “warm-up” for the 2010 convention season! Held in September, the week before Anime Weekend Atlanta, Boogie BAM Anime Jam once again put on their second Cosplay Contest. Being close to AWA, it was also a AWA Cosplay Showcase for participants to show off their costumes for the biggest weekend for Southern Otaku. There were more people this time around, being hyped for AWA and an excuse to cosplay in…

    To add to the growing line of Anime apps for the iPhone (and iPod Touch) is the Fullmetal Alchemist State Alchemy Exam. It’s the first Fullmetal Alchemist app for the iPhone from Appliya in conjunction with FUNimation. As the app’s name is implied, the State Alchemy Exam is filled with exam questions inspired from the series. Not just from the series, but with [educational] questions like the symbol for Aluminum and the three states of matter. The exam host is Edward Elric himself, who gives you a thumbs up if you answer a question correctly or gets irritated when it’s…

There’s definitely a division between the last box set and this one, an accelerated (though far from rushed) pacing and linked plot advancement, that makes episodes 14-25 a little more interesting, if only at some slight expense of the series’ sense of patient humor.

Instead of having What'cha Been Doing? segments before every discussion, we will be recording shorter podcasts dedicated to freeform discussion alongside episodes that only contain a review or a panel discussion. Thus, all of the episodes should clock in at 30-40 minutes, which should hopefully result in an acceleration of our release schedule. And don't you worry — we'll still be doing our very best…

Anyway, enough with the excuses and on with the post.    Summary: Yoshii goes to school on Sunday and after a while eats lunch.

I was glad to see Nodame be quick to forgive Chiaki, albeit with some much deserved baka inu treatment (sans the whip). This was a really nice moment between the two, as Chiaki doesn’t try to hide his reasons for missing Nodame’s performance, while Nodame is quick to show some understanding, even if she’s still a little pissed about it. But moreso than Chiaki missing her performance, Nodame seemed more annoyed that the salon…

    On one hand, I’d be willing to say that a lot of the mystery is beginning to unfold. On the other hand, this is a Ryukishi joint, so there’s no reason to believe that the mystery’s solvable at face value. I got a kick out of seeing Issei’s Higurashi-esque paranoid reptile eyes. We got the angry toad eyes in Umineko, but it was the reptile eyes in Higurashi that really brought the heebie-jeebies. The episode starts off with some goons from the old town’s vigilance committee stopping by Issei’s place to give his parents a warning. But Issei’s parents…

Sort of surprising, since Kanata is like a mix between Aria’s Akari and K-ON’s Yui, and that kind of combo should be right up my alley. But in a surprise showing, I’ve fallen for the silent girl, Noel Kannagi, or basically Sanya v. Litvyak + Nagato Yuki. She’s just so cute when she’s being all narcoleptic (although I don’t think she should be allowed to operate any heavy machinery – that includes driving, as well as handling…

    There were some laugh out loud moments in this episode, but they were mostly overshadowed by most of the dramatic breakthroughs. Oh nothing terribly melodramatic, but definitely some major events. Chiaki and Son Rui meet for dinner at Rui’s behest to discuss life, love and overbearing moms. Son Rui’s getting a fair amount of screen time for someone who I didn’t think was a big deal, but I suppose it’s her meeting with Chiaki that set the dominoes to fall for Chiaki’s random encounter with his former sensei, Viera. Rui bares her heart out (and becomes smitten by…

    2003 brings back a lot of fond memories since that was the year that my interest in the medium was rekindled after going on a one-year hiatus. By that time, I had completely settled into my new environment, made quite a few friends, and more importantly, I had a sense of direction. That peace of mind helped free up more time and through a friend, I was compelled to give anime another shot since a lot of good shows were airing, some of which would end up on my all-time favorites list. It would be an overstatement to call this period an anime renaissance, but at the time, it sure felt that way…

So I ended up putting off anime for a whole year until 2003 rekindled my interest in the medium once more with a spate of shows that proved to be pretty damn awesome.
