Okay, it’s one day late, but not if we go by GMT-4. 19th of January is (was) my 18th birthday! Did I ever mention that KOTOKO‘s birthday is on 19 January too? Yay! Happy Birthday!
Tsubaki organized a birthday party for me yesterday and a whole bunch of guys from #SGanimebloggers (and one girl) on rizon were there.
All 0.3 seconds of it!
Channel U recently aired a TV special covering the new cosplay maid cafe that just opened in Singapore last month. I was there on New Year’s Eve when they took some of the footages and was caught by the camera pan in this frame!
You can watch the video yourself after the jump, which includes an interview (in Chinese) with LianYL. LOL! LOL! LOL! Video is in Mandarin Chinese (or as close as it gets in Singapore).
CHIKANE X HIMEKO!
KAON X HIMIKO!!!
KISU DESU!
ONNA NO KO TO ONNA NO KO NO KISU DESU!
Do ZETTAI TENSHI have hawt ZETTAI RYOUIKI?
I spent the whole day sandpapering. My hands hurt.
I have started taking a garage kit building course at XenoHobby. Today was the first lesson. I will post weekly updates here after every lesson.
You have probably read about it already. Death Note has been licensed by Viz Media. This is no ordinary licence. Viz has announced that they will be distributing the episodes online “soon after they air in Japan”. This means that Death Note will be the first anime ever to be legally distributed in North America while the series is still airing in Japan.
This has huge implications for anime fansubbing. For good or for bad.
Alter’s 1/8 Fate Testarossa is getting a 2nd release in April. Hobby Stock has started taking preorders for it today.
The hawt selling point is of course the the powerful action pose, the sword and the fact that there are a lot of lolicons out there. I jest, but I’m pretty sure I’ve seen a fully-nude custom mod of this figure somewhere on 2ch before…
This ultra popular supreme PVC hit figurine is currently sold out everywhere except a few stores that are charging premium for it. Preorder this while you still can.
On a completely unrelated note, my birthday is on the 19th this month, just about a week off. Wouldn’t it be nice if someone bought this for me? Or maybe even this. Mmmm… And for absolutely no reason whatsoever, here’s the link to my Amazon wishlist. *hint hint* :)
P.S. I recently forced myself to watch a few episodes of Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha and I am totally stumped as to why it’s so popular. I rather watch Lovely Idols. Please advice.
Odex is just about the only company in South-East Asia that licenses anime, but unfortunately their products are pretty low quality and few people buy them. They also maintain a low profile in the Singaporean anime community with virtually zero presence in anime-related events and online communities.
This picture has absolutely no relation to the topic
Recently, Odex hinted that they are teaming up with IPOS to catch anime downloaders in Singapore, sort of like RIAS (Singapore’s RIAA) except for anime. Feeling bored, I sent them an e-mail regarding this rumour exactly one week ago but apparently Odex does not have the habit of checking their inbox, or perhaps they have a filter that automagically redirects everything into the spam box.
Well, here it is…
According to Moon Phase Zakki, a DVD containing the pilot episode of Kiddy Grade 2 will be released in late March.
More info after the break.
