1. Experiment and its material

    Ubu was talking at length about the upcoming nearly-simultaneous release of Kite: Liberator and related matters. Somehow he forgot to mention how the guinea pig itself matters. Some time ago, Samurai Gun was supposed to be the model of cooperation between Japanese and American companies, and the ADV's PR flak …

    As seen at Rocketeers.co.UK (the item was posted in 2006, but I only saw it now):

    Alt.Space becomes Art.Space! This manga-styled poster, drawn by Glenn Andrean of Altiz-Studio depicts a young rocket engineer as she completes a successful flight test of a VTVL RLV. []

    Manga-styled, heh …

  3. Jason on studios and quality

    Seen at DbD:

    I’m looking for superior animation. I’m looking for things like “How well do they make use of HDTV?”, “How many frames are animated?”, “Does the background move?”, “When a character speaks, do they redraw the whole character or just the face/mouth?”, etc. Some studios …

  4. Bugfox on Kanon

    Kanon (2006)–Anime Review:

    [] I don’t think I’ve ever changed changed my mind as often as I did while watching this one. // Partly it’s a matter of expectations. The early episodes look like a light-hearted comedy. Indeed, the distributor is explicitly marketing it as a comedy. But …

  5. Hourglass grinding

    If anyone wondered why I never have any content at the blog anymore, it's because I'm grinding on the Hourglass of Summer like a Chinese goldminer in WoW. My word, that thing is long.

    Currently I'm playing it straight with the unshakable love of Kaho, but I think I might …

    Ani-nouto was down every morning in recent weeks, so Maestro, the owner of Animeblogger, moved me to a different server and also tweaked various caching thingies. Look, I'm only a kernel monkey, I don't know a thing about webservers. But everything seems to work peachy now.

    In addition, we'll experiment …

  7. Meanwhile, in broadcast

    Saw Moero Amazon posting that Azumanga is in reruns at AT-X, which seems like a more successful blueprint for the ailing Anime Channel:

    AT-Xで再放送が始まったので視聴。何回観ても楽しいなぁ。

    Indeed, it never …

  8. One more example

    In the yesterdays's debate I tried to make a point that Omo never mentioned any kind of "open-source anime", and that it's nothing but a distraction which Avatar trotted out. Making copyright laws in the U.S. sane is essential for the proprietary media industry's well-being, because it is eaten …
