Oh yeah.... Anime


Usagi Drop is no longer available on Crunchyroll, but it is available for purchase on DVD.
This is an impressive release with the 4 dvd only episodes, and an artbook.




To my considerable dismay, Squid Girl Season 2 (volume 3 of the DVD) seems to be cancelled. This is old news but I'd missed it. I'm not the only one. At least one other person I know was still expecting a March release.



It seems it was cancelled about two weeks after the release date was announced back in November.



I'm not watching any of the new shows at the moment. The season is a total  bust for me. However, between school and work, I am currently watching the 1978 version of Captain Harlock on Crunchyroll.  I've never seen the whole thing all the way through, and it turns out that at least some of what I saw was  from a featurette that cut out a lot.




For sometime, I've been preparing (and deleting...and preparing) a review of the first 10 eps. of Yamato 2199. Now it turns out that she show, (which heretefore has been released only  theatrically and on DVD) will start airing in Japan this spring, about a year earlier than previously announced.



This is one to look forward too. It's a surprisingly thoughtful and well paced show.

Additional Yamato related cheesecake below the fold.


Well...we do have the occasional female reader.

2 It's okay Duck, just scroll back up to the nice profile shot of "Nova" and "Derek".

(That was retaliation there....)

4 After the Discovery Channel aired that under-sea footage of the lead-actress without her make-up, fan interest in Squid Girl 2 plummeted...

5 But they more than made it up in sales of tie-in cosmetics.
