I just heard the news and I can say that this movie would be probably better as a live action than DBZ is turning out to be… wonder who would be on the cast… However I don’t really like Fox’s record with making movies.. I was so disappointed by X-Men.. not sure now.
Galileo Movie Theme and Info..

I was reading one of my blogs on Japanese entertainment and got the tidbit for this information. I really like parts to of the drama, save the ending, so I’ll be pretty happy to see this movie.
Fukuyama Masaharu (39) and Shibasaki Koh (26) are to provide the theme song for the upcoming big screen adaptation of the successful TV drama series “Galileo.” The pair are reviving their roles, as a physics genius and a detective who combine their skills to catch a variety of criminals, for the movie “Yogisha X no Kenshin.” And with both having established music careers, collaborating on the movie’s theme song was a logical decision. Under the name Koh+, Koh will sing the ballad “Saiai,” which was written, composed and produced by Fukuyama. Though he has a long-established singing and acting career, this film is actually his first movie starring role. Directed by Nishitani Hiroshi, the movie will be in theaters from October 4.
Otakon Prep…

Now let me just say.. that if I am going nuts over Otakon, it is because I am…pretty excited for it. Prepping for it in terms of getting a pseudo-cosplay ready.
Norimaki Arale - need the overalls, shirt and perhaps shoes. Have hat, poop.
Studio Ghibli fan- Have shirts, Teto plushie, shorts… ready…!
Other days will be dressed comfortably.
Roomie situation a-okay. Press pass.. need to scan id and send samples…
So for this year I am going by myself, because woefully _ Kero and 801megane has jumped out of the ship or left the building. Aya’s in the great and almighty Nippon and Herd’s… he doesn’t want to go. So I still am catching a ride with Bellos and meeting up with Silent death.. so…. life is just grand… now for some Otakon fan swag.
One Piece 362 Musings..
July 18, 2008 at 3:16 am | In One Piece | No CommentsTags: One Piece
Logically I should be doing an episode review, complete with screen caps, but I can’t get over the fact of how cool Zolo’s sword fights are and how dramatically complicated they are. Dramatic in how flowery attack power phases being used. Flowery attack phrases.. hmm I guess if people would see series like Soul Eater, Bleach or Sakura Taisen, then there would be the usage of these phrases. It does seem funny to see how fansubs would translate it, but I wouldn’t have it any other way.
As a fan I don’t get that anime exposure, other than the anime fansubs I download, so i am very grateful for fansubs being around.
Yep so in this episode.. Zolo fights with Brook’s shadow who’s body is a former famous swordsman, similar to Zolo. The amount of power is so cool looking, and the experessions of Franky and Brooks is comic relief.
Similarly in the previous episode with Ussop fighting Perona, let’s just do a big eww.. for the cockroaches.. as the episode ends, though Perona is scared to fainting point.

Yay!!! Well sister con to Anime Next… I am planning to go to this con… sent an email to my editor about doing a report for this con. Instead of Anime, this is focusing on Manga and is located in New Jersey. The announcement is here.. I guess more news will come out later.. but I believe early bird is $20 and on the door is $30 if they’re following last year’s rate.
Sad BL-industry news..
July 16, 2008 at 10:25 am | In Feeds | 4 CommentsTags: bl, Iris Press, plagerizing, rant, Youka Nitta
Today as I was reading through a back log of blog entries, I decided to hop over to 801-chan blog and I found them mentioning my review that I wrote… mentioned by another person… man was I pretty happy and quite surprised. I know that my favorite yaoi publisher would have to be 801. So this was a nice surprise.
On a sad note… Youka Nitta is quitting her job as a mangaka. I feel kinda sad that she had to quit. I remember listening to what Mina’s opinion is and I am pissed off at copyright fiends for them saying that she plagerized. Sure she traced, but what is art then?
I know for sure Sam doesn’t feel any qualms about copying other people’s work IF that inspires him to create something new in terms of fashion.
Art should not to be held in the same standard as writing, so if the artists makes emphasis on tracing, then so what? I mean people people are vile for plagiarizing written work, but are they determine to make art have a standard? Because as sure as I am not a drawer, I don’t believe that people should have accuse her of plagiarizing. I remember back to when i was taking that drawing class, everyone was encourage to go out and copy other’s people’s art as example.
I leave you with this suitable link… check out the Youtube video at the end.
Also another sad note… Iris Press is closing shop and they’re having a sale… use the coupon “liquidate” to get 50% off of the books they have. I remember seeing them at Otakon last year and to see this happen, makes me kinda sad. I went and purchase one of their items.. Connections.
