From The Diet 3 Daily -
October 11, 2007. While we weren’t starving in Japan and we really love our raisin brans, the cyber gods decided to attack our agency with messages telling us that we stole some articles from an individual (not from the Individual 7) identified as “rayyhum777″.
We were shocked and dismayed at the [...]

It sucks to work on a weekend and I am gonna work for 2 sundays (tomorrow and next week), so I decided to go KKnM today since it is the only day I can go out and relax. No worries though, there is still internet in the office (tsk). The [...]

ADV put out their word too, which doesn’t tell us anything new really, but I did notice…
…ADV says it has “withdrawn plans” to do distro for Geneon, and Geneon says that THEY have “withdrawn [the] appointment” of ADV to do distro…
…Doesn’t it read kind of like a “I dumped you!” “No, I dumped YOU!” argument? [...]

Yeah.
I kinda wanna do a series of pics of her in different outfits. Probably like 3 or 4. I’d never have the time to do that, though.
Been depressed today. Ugh.

Yes, yet another print yaoi magazine is in the works, according to Yaoi Suki. And this one actually sent out a press release! Ooh, ahh.
For the record, I support fan endeavors like this, especially when they encourage original works and stuff. But I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t make fun of them, so…
First off, [...]

Just a bit of link blogging before I return to the normal schedule (wait, what schedule?). I’d like to think that four whole days away from the PC at camp did my hands good, but a prolonged bout of instant messaging proved otherwise. I can live with the pain, though, seeing how it serves as [...]

It seems the more I watch Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei, the less I get it; but also the more I get it.
Allow me to explain. When I witness the first episode of SZS, I came to believe that it was a dark-yet-wacky comedy about a suicidal teacher and an optimistic girl. Yes, all these elements remain [...]

I apologize for delaying this post for so long. I knew it was going to be a long post, but here it is.
Ok, I’m pretty sure this year’s Anime Expo has been bashed to death, but I decided to wait a while before I jumped to conclusions and assume the worst. I still agree with [...]

Thoughts: Overall this arc is not nearly as interesting and exciting as the last, which involved the C.C look-like, Amber. However, it wasn’t too bad either. Hei was rebellious as usual, luckily his organization didn’t catch him helping the doll escape, which once again shows that he isn’t a heartless killer that a generic contractor [...]

It's another Monday and there's not enough stuff for a rollup. Just three bits of figure news, one bit of which sucks. Let's hit it like we just can't quit it. First up, from Little Witch Parfait 2 -Heartful Memories-, comes Parfait. SHOCK! She looks ok for a Kaiyodo piece, but just… not enough there [...]

Alright, I succumbed and ordered the collector’s edition of the Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. Once you get past the brain cell killing fumes that escape when you open the box (after comparing those fumes to that of a Sharpie, I prefer the Sharpie), it’s just like what you’d expect of a collector’s box. Lot’s of [...]
