^What is the show on the left?

Japan has...interesting commercials.

Speaking of which, see here from 4:35: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AFc98lh69UA

I wonder if they were inspired by these MPEs on Etsy.

Actually the Evastore now tells you to go through Tokyo Otaku Mode: http://www.evastore.jp/pc/info-oversea.html

First Squad Saw this piece by Studio 4C a couple weeks ago. It's set in WW II with the dialog in Russian and German. The precursor was this music video animated by 4C to Russian rapper Ligalize's song Our Victory. The story is OK but intercut by live action clips of supposed WW II vets, his...

I nearly went to the SF screening at Century, my experienced could have been ruined by stuck subs . Funny thing looking at it now is that's a line from Part 2. It does help to keep in mind that Shikishima ≠ Levi (the differences are more emphasized in Part 2), so Levi in a sense stays ou...

^If you were already pissed off by Part 1, Part 2 won't make you any happier and likely more pissed with the ending. I knew from reading the ANN review that this was going to be a loose adaptation, but until you see it you don't realize how loose it is. It is not just a running time issue. T...

^I have updates dating back to last October, haven't been able to cobble the time together to do a great-grandmother of all updates. I feel like this is one of y'all, but the user name on the sidebar doesn't ring any bells: http://myfigurecollection.net/picture/1014432&ref=item%3A837...

Update: Saw the live action Part 2 2 nights ago so I can put everything all together. Saw Part 1 on September 30. About 50 people in a 200 person theater, still much better than about the 5 or 6 when I saw Appleseed theatrically in 2004. Some Funi trailers for upcoming theatrical releases (e.g. ...

When I first started collecting Evangelion books, I had no idea there were so many, either! What have I gotten myself into? Eva can be a black hole for collectors in multiple product areas, welcome to the abyss. :heehee: Yoshinari was at AX this year but wouldn't draw Eva because he had suppose...

Thanks for reviewing this, looking forward to picking it up.

I had lost track of this but good to know the final part is up. The Optimus in Eva-01 colors was known about since last year.

Powered through and finally finished the Twintail anime. One of the most ridiculous things I've seen and I went through the whole thing, but not my lowest MAL rating. It was more tolerable after I started treating it as brain candy. Otherwise, up on Gate and God Eater, although those God Eater d...

Finished vol. 5 of Kodansha's Vinland Saga 2x release version, equivalent to finishing vol. 10. I know what happens next though since I found the scans after going through vols 1-2. Also finished Jojo's Bizarre Adventure Part 1: Phantom Blood. My last exposure to Jojo was the '90s OAV an...

Limited release dates have been announced for both parts of the live action version.

It's in my local theater so I'll be dropping by this week with my Costco Supersaver passes to save some $.

Good eye, as this larger image clarifies: http://ww1.sinaimg.cn/large/61b1dc3djw1emxqd2qjz1j218g0xcn7k.jpg

The girls in qipao came out last year, the guys are new for this year. Admission at 70 RMB, ~$11.

Rei seems to be a hit with the Chinese.


What is Kaworu doing with his right hand?

AK took months to get caught up with the latest chapters, but they're now available, awesome reading.

There were digital sources available at the time such as the Collector's Disks for the official artwork. Maybe they went old school to fly under the radar.

See, I knew there was a scientific rationale at work here. ;)
