1. Is BOST dead?

    Not all Autumn series have started, but some have. Most conspicously, Crunchyroll have streamed Linebarrels, apparently subbed by BOST, yet it's not available on BOST itself. What gives?

    Chou-chun mentioned in the hints thread that they "are finalizing a few minor points on the next show, but we should be …

    [UPDATE: Scott e-mailed me regarding this, and at this point I think the best would be to retract the whole thing with apologies. He denies any casual connection between receiving access and stringent editorial position, therefore "sold out" is bogus. I'm leaving this post up for the future readers to …

  3. Aroduc on Hyakko

    Tenka Seiha:

    It was immensely boring for about 18 minutes, followed by a very brief spat of electric guitars and violence. [...] I was rather underimpressed by this one.

    Not that his opinion is going to stop me from checking it out... But yes, signs are not good. I hate electric …

    The meter is moving in the pump:

    This is not very …

  6. Another blogger in Tokyo

    I wish to know how they find arcades (I've not seen even one, unlike manga cafes), and what is the secret of taking pictures off a TV. Mine always were abysmal as I struggled with the dark stripes left by the CRT scan. Taking pictures of plasma screens helps, I …

  7. Bandai Banzai

    According to an accidential testimony by DS, they actually promoted Rocket Girls at NYAF. Check out this towering Yukari, looking sceptically at the convention-goers:

    Now, may I have a wall scroll of it please?

  8. Marimite 04-07

    It's not entirely smooth sailing, but what bloggers said was true: it's about girls being friends (and enemies, but it's not very intense).

    My biggest gripe is the weird art, which sometimes abates, sometimes comes in full force. Those eyes, they're just bad.
