I’m moving things around a bit soon, so if you linked to certain pages within this site it is likely you’ll get errors when I complete moving everything. I assure you everything still exists; you just need to update links. My original arrangement was a bit haphazard so it’s taken me forever to change all…

Melty Blood Re•ACT is out for those of you who don’t know; everyone else is busy whoring it from torrents. Fortunately, a friend of mine in Japan said he picked up a copy for me; unless he doesn’t make it back to America, I’ll be enjoying new fighting action in about a week. Soon it…

Most people are out this weekend, so I’ll make it quick.

One of the characters in Gad Guard wears an unusual jacket (leftmost pic):         I don’t know if he’s trying to be creepy (he seems like a nice enough guy), but it certainly has that effect on me. I immediately thought of the character Gargoyle from Fushigi no Umi no Nadia – that guy…

Not much except for a neat image site, a page on Kokoro Library, and the Pic of the Week. Yeah, yeah…

I plan on attending Anime Expo 2004 with some friends, and one of the ways I plan on having fun is to engage in some good old fashioned beating via Queen of Heart ’99, Party’s Breaker, and Melty Blood. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, look here for details. We’ll post some flyers…

    Forget “The Paper” (sorry, Yomiko) and say hello to “THE COFFEE!” The pic on the left is from Maburaho; the pic on the right is to show that, yes, such a product does, in fact, exist. It seems like the Japanese are starting to reciprocate the adoration that I hold for their animation industry…
