Something I never thought would happen… I wasn’t expecting it in the slightest! Season one has a CLEAR ending… kinda a depressing and disturbing… but an ending that could never be undone. I can’t even imagine what could happen in another season, but naturally I won’t protest more of the smexy master demon butler sebastian!
For those of you who have not seen the first season it revolved around a rich boy who’s parents …

Nope, that is not a photoshopped image or a sad cosplay attempt. That is an advertisement for a staged Live action performance of Naruto by Universal Studios Japan. Part of me died a little bit inside when I found out that this wasn’t fake. This ninja tried to explain more about it here, but All I heard was it was time to eat some Ramen xD

I expect this to be inferior to the Bleach and Phoenix Write Musicals, but a step above this:

Here’s two more images I found floating around:

In barely 5 hours, 20,000 Evangelion mobile phones which have been put up for preorders, have all been sold out. The true power of otakus. Or more likely, otaku-must-have-exclusives?

The NTT docomo shops of telecommunications provider NTT began taking pre-orders for Sharp’s SH-06A NERV phone for 90,000 yen (about US$900) on Friday at 10:00 a.m.
A mobile phone cost 90,000 yen and 20,000 of them were sold out during preorders within 5 hours?! Omg. I don’t see this happening in Singapore at all >_>. Our “exclusive” phone designs don’t even go till …

Last night, Bluesnow was telling me Season 3 has been confirmed for Shana. She was asking me whether I like to post this up, but the lazy me was writing this post at the point of time.
Anyway on to the news!

The July issue of ASCII MediaWorks’ Dengeki Bunko Magazine will reveal on June 10 that the “Shana Project is restarting” with a “new anime in development” for Shakugan no Shana.
It seems that recently all the popular anime shows have started making their appearances with sequels (haruhi psst). Season 3 of …

 I just realized that this weekend was full of drama for the anime Once Piece.  Funimation (the North American distributor of One Piece) partnered with Toei Animation were planning to release streaming “simulcast” episodes online with English subs. Apparently Funimation’s security was breached and somehow someone was able to access and release the video for episode 403 before it even aired in Japan. In recoil Funimation has canceled (at least temporarily) simulcast of One Piece on its official site, Hulu, and Joost. Funimation is probably in deep trouble, and I …

A coloring book doesn’t get to be printed out because of certain nudity exposed in some pages of the said book. And the book is only a coloring book. How lol is that?

The global boys-love publisher Yaoi Press reports that the on-demand printer Docucopies refused to make copies of its Yaoi Coloring Book “because of the nudity of this file.” While Yaoi Press founder Yamila Abraham noted that all of the book’s characters are male in her emailed reply, she offered to replace some pictures if Docucopies specified which ones …

A five minute preview of the beginning of Blood: The Last Vampire can be seen here.
I wasn’t overly impressed with it, but I don’t generally like Japanese movies, let alone live action adaptions of anime, but then again I didn’t like the first five minutes of the animated version of Blood: The Last Vampire either, so I will probably give it another chance.

For those of you who don’t know this movie, its based off of the 2000 animated movie of the same name. Despite being acclaimed as a masterpiece, and …

Can’t get enough of Spice and Wolf? Well, good news, a hand puppet of Horo from the anime series will be released in August 2009 – some time after Spice and Wolf II starts airing in July 2009. They will be on sale at the Gamers and ANIMATE character good stores.

The 36-centimeter-tall (14-inch-tall) puppet will feature interchangeable eyes and Holo’s characteristic tail. A second hand puppet was made of Lawrence, the main hero of Spice and Wolf, but the official Spice and Wolf staff blog said that there are no …
