Now I'm not gonna say that the series is crap, and you shouldn't waste your time on it. I do have some thoughts about it though. Oh, and this isn't a Weekly Manga feature. The one shot was good. The serialized series on the other hand...It's not bad, it's just that there's a lack of plot, and there's really nothing interesting about the...
While supercell's been busy with non-vocaloid stuff (i.e. music for cencoroll, 君の知らない物語, b★rs anime, etc.), ryo was able to crank out a new version of B★RS! The song comes with the pilot dvd of B★RS. It's not too different from the usual and older version, although it has been upgraded to have a string accompaniment. Miku's voice has also gone through a bit...
Can you help him find why? Yeah, so anyways the video is about him, and how he's trying to improve on his YT vids, at the same time, it's pretty funny to watch, when it's good. I might be appearing in a video with him in the future, so keep on the lookout for a good looking, preppy dressed, glasses toting 18 year...
Spoilers ahead. Read at your own discretion. And so Bakemonogatari finishes it's run on the TV, and begins it's three episode web stream run. This week's episode wasn't part of the previous arc (cat), but what brilliant nonetheless. What I really love about the show is the character interaction between Tsundere-chan Senjougahara and Araragi. In fact, that's exactly what this week's episode was!...
Image by Hojo Tsukasa Title: エンジェル・ハート, Angel Heart Author: Hojo Tsukasa Genre: Seinen, Action, Comedy, Drama, Mystery, Romance Serialized in: Shinchosha Comic Bunch Total Volume Count: 30 (ongoing) Kenn's Comment: A loose sequel to the series City Hunter. I haven't read City Hunter myself, but it's not really important for this series. It's really good. It was a bit hard for me to...
Image from Megami (magazine) Title: アスラクライン2, Asura Cryin' 2 Genre: Action, Fantasy Airs: 10/01 09:30 Animation Studio: Seven Arcs Kenn's Comment: A sequel to the spring's Asura Cryin'. I'll say that the series isn't terrible, but it's not awesome either. The characters are enjoyable, but the way some of the plot is presented is a bit iffy to me. Hoping that this season...
Image by Mashima Hiro Title: フェアリーテイル, FAIRY TAIL Genre: Action, Comedy, Fantasy Airs: 10/12 19:30 Animation Studio: A-1 Pictures, Satelight Kenn's Comment: I can't say I'm a fan of Mashima-sensei's art, but Fairy Tail is a pretty good series. It's not very fan service based, but it's action is quite nice. Kakihara Tetsuya voices Natsu, while Hirano Aya voices Lucy. Looking forwards to...
Image from OVA thing More to come. Title: テガミバチ, Tegami Bachi, Letter Bee Genre: Action, Fantasy Airs: 10/03 22:55 Production Studio: Studio Pierrot Kenn's Comment: First serialized in Monthly SJ, and then went to Weekly SJ, and then to Jump Square. This series isn't a stranger to animation. It's got an OVA out already. However, the OVA and anime series won't have any...
Image by nekotei Nothing really happened today. It was cold...and windy. Not fun to work around in. So instead, you guys should watch this. xD I love those puppets. ...
Song by uzP It's a cool song. I don't think it has any relation to another song, Cendrillon. I'll have some more previews up later. ...
Image by socha Alrighty, so twas another night down in Richmond. I stuck this series on hiatus, since nothing interesting was happening. Tonight, however, I'd say stuff happened. I'll list'em instead of typing up some stuff. First time lighting the stove. It's a propane stove, so you gotta get a barbecue lighter to start it. We left the gas running to a bit...

Title: イレブンアイズ, 11eyes, 11eyes -Tsumi to Batsu to Aganai no Shoujo- Genre: Action, Fantasy, Romance Airs: 10/06 25:00 Animation Studio: Dogakobo Kenn's Comment: From the promo, it looks pretty good. Can't say I know too much about this series. What I do know is that the song in the promo is awesome, and that a...
Looks like I can win over H Weej by having more Mandarin music. Watch me put up some Korean or Japanese song next week. Title: Kiss Goodbye Artist: 王力宏 (Lee Hom Wang) Genre: Ballad, Pop Single: N/A Vintage: 30/12/05 Kenn's Comment: I'll say it now. I prefer Lee Hom's ballads over his usual music. In fact, I prefer ballads in general. The video...
Image from main site Anywho, while I was in the process of typing this up, a trailer popped up! It's only on the website for now though. Title: けんぷファー, Kämpfer (german for warrior) Genre: Action, Comedy, Romance Airs: 10/01 25:29 Animation Studio: NOMAD Kenn's Comment: From what I've read in the few chapters of the manga that have been scanlated, I can say...

Title: ささめきこと, Sasameki Koto, Whispered Words Genre: Shoujo Ai, Romance, Comedy, Drama Airs: 10/07 26:20 Animation Studio: AIC Kenn's Comment: Well, I've just blazed through the first 3 volumes of the manga, and I have to say, I've got some hopes for it. The first volume was a...
Image from some Imageboard (detexted) Unfortunately, there don't seem to be any trailers left, and if there are, they're not available to us western folk. I really hoped to do every preview with a trailer, but I guess I can't. I'll be starting the trailer-less ones now. There are quite a few, and with only 6 days left before the first episodes of...
Yeah. Sorry about the photo. Have to wait until my brother comes back from his trip so I can get my camera back. Was using my old camera. Not the greatest, as you can see. Anyways, went running around Richmond and Vancouver with Ivy today. While picking up Miku at Richmond center (Soul of Anime is the only place to get figma D:),...
In absolutely no particular order, we begin.. Note that there isn't too much information about these people, other than what they sound like. They're also known as うたってみた, utatte mita (tried to sing). This is just a short list of a few, and there are many, many more singers out on NND. DO NOT THINK THAT THIS IS EVEN A GOOD CHUNK OF...
Image by Isou Nagi After blundering about, not knowing what to do with this insignificant life of mine, I've finally got it set in my head that I'll become a music student at a university. Btw, who got the reference? My music teacher didn't take the idea of me rolling around on the floor and internet for a few months, not doing anything...
Image by Studio Kimigabuchi Title: 新世紀エヴァンゲリオン RE-TAKE, Neon Genesis Evangelion Re-TAKE Author: Studio Kimigabuchi Genre: Doujinshi, Action, Drama, Mecha, Supernatural, Romance Serialized in: N/A Total Volume Count: 6 (complete) + Re-TAKE After (sequel) Kenn's Comment: Yes yes, I know. This is a doujinshi. HOWEVER, it is a doujin that transcends the boundaries of awesome, encroaches upon the levels of legendary, and all...
Title: 砂上の足跡, Footprints in the Sand Producer: MAYA (I think...) Kenn's Comment: It's a nice song. It's got a folk-esque kind of sound to it. xD I'm trying out a new format for the Weekly Vocaloid feature. Sorry it's late xD ...
Title: A Stone Artist: Okkervil River Genre: Indie Rock Single: N/A Album: Black Sheep Boy Vintage: 05/04/05 Kenn's Comment: A saad song. It's beautiful though. Lots of emotion poured into this song, and the entire album as a matter of fact. It was number 22 of Amazon's Top 50 Albums of 2005. Sorry about the video. There isn't one that I could find,...
Image from Dengeki Online Title: にゃんこい!, Nyankoi! Genre: Shounen, Comedy, Fantasy, Romance Airs: 10/01 25:59 Animation Studio: AIC Kenn's Comment: I read a bit of the manga, and it was quite the read. Now, I'm not saying that it was spectacular; I've only read 2 chapters. But from how the plot works, it gives the production team quite a bit of leeway to...
Title: こばと。, Kobato. Genre: Seinen, Adventure, Comedy, Fantasy, Romance Airs: 10/06 20:00 Animation Studio: Madhouse Studios Kenn's Comment: I've only read a bit of the manga, but from what I've read about it, it seems like this is quite the series. Plus, it's a CLAMP series, so it'll be good. Madhouse is on it, and it's not the same genre as Tsubasa Chronicles,...
Title: 겨울연가, Gyeoul Yeonga, 冬のソナタ, Fuyu no Sonata, Winter Sonata Genre: Drama, Romance Airs: 10/17 12:00 Animation Studio: G&G Entertainment/ JM Animation Kenn's Comment: Yes, this is an animated version of the hit Korean Drama of the same title. It's supposedly going to be voiced by the same actors who starred in the drama, so it's obviously having a Korean airing, but what's...
Image by sk Title: 君に届け, Kimi ni Todoke, Reaching You Genre: Shoujo, Comedy, Romance, Slice of Life Airs: 10/06 24:59 Animation Studio: Production I.G. (oh yes <3) Kenn's Comment: Possibly one of the most anticipated series of the season, despite it's genre. With Production IG on it, and SENS Project (music), I've got extremely high hopes for this adaptation. The manga is awesome...
Image from http://anime.webnt.jp/soraoto/ Title: そらのおとしもの, Sora no Otoshimono, Lost Continent of the Sky Genre: Seinen, Comedy, Ecchi, Fantasy, Romance Airs: 10/04 24:00 Animation Studio: AIC A.S.T.A Kenn's Comment: One of the 14 episodes that are planned is apparently "too dangerous" for TV, and with "ecchi" as one of the genre tags, I'll leave what could possibly be so "dangerous" that it can't...
Image from Bantorra.com Title: 戦う司書 The Book of Bantorra, Tatakau Shisho - The Book of Bantorra, Fighting Librarians - The Book of BantorraGenre: Shounen, Action, Fantasy, RomanceAirs: 10/02 22:00 Animation Studio: DAVID ProductionKenn's Comment: Adapted from Yamagata Ishio's light novels. It doesn't look bad, and reminds me of Toshokan Sensou (Library Wars). It's animated by a new company, having only fully animated one series...
Image by Tatsuya Seo Title: 聖剣の刀鍛冶, Seiken no Blacksmith, The Legendary BlacksmithGenre: Shounen, Action, Adventure, FantasyAirs: 10/03 09:30Animation Studio: Manglobe Kenn's Comment: Looks pretty good. Probably gonna watch this. It's called an "unconventional fantasy", why I don't know, but I'm hoping to find out by watching it when it airs. Summary from ANN: The story takes place after an abominable war that foisted...

That's right. I got a new t shirt from Super Bored! My brother got it for me actually, but it's the same thing. I'd love to say I have two shirts from SB, but my first one went missing a few weeks ago, so this is the only one I have so far. Sad face. Anywho, my brother got a Dorabob tee....
No image, cuz nothing happened. Slow day. Slooooow day. Sloooow day. Nothing interesting during work...other than bikini models walking around in the night market collecting donations for a charity. They weren't as good looking as I expected them to be though. Came home to find a cat from a near by house hanging around. Followed my cousin into our backyard. Our dog would...
Sorry, but this was just too cute to ignore. And no, I'm not a lolicon. Luka version posted a while back for a Weekly Vocaloid Feature. Originally posted on FigureFM @ here. ...

The characters are very likeable, as Teru (female protagonist) really knuckles through hard times, and Kurosaki's treatment. Speaking of him, he's an awesome character. I really like his bad guy attitude xD Makes him seem like...
Well, I'm lacking Internet on my computer at the moment, so I'll try my best to do this on my iTouch. I was supposed to have piano today, but music that was ordered didn't arrive, so I didn't have a lesson today. Did some restocking of everything and went to work. Can't say today was entirely eventful. Was a good day I guess,...
A video celebrating Miku's second birthday (August 31). All the various things in the video are the various songs that have been popular. I'd try and list them out, but there's so many I don't recognize. Anywho, most of the songs should be in my little producers post, so you can go there and go for some hit and miss guessing. ...
Title: Heartbreaker Artist: G-Dragon (from Big Bang) Genre: electric, dance, pop Single: N/A Album: G-Dragon Vol.1 Heartbreaker, 지드래곤 1집 - Heartbreaker Vintage: 31/08/09 Kenn's Comment: Addressing those claims that G-Dragon plagarized Oasis and Flo Rida, I really don't give a shit whether he did or not. There are those strong American "anti-everybody else" idiots out there who believe this and call G-Dragon a...
Image from Saber Portraits Alright. Let's get this straight. This post is solely for the education of those who are not acquainted with the characters of VOCALOID, the way it works, and other what-nots you might not need to know, but will be forced to know by the end of this post. I can guarantee that it will be long. Very long. Information...
