Narutaki’s picks:
- Gone in 70 Seconds
This promotion for the new James Bond movie is way cool. Coke Zero must love the UK more than us. I’d like to see how this would go in a New York City subway, ha!
- Fat Pony Moves!
It deserved a little animation love.
- I Have No Words For How Awesome This Robot Is
Japan seriously understands how to combine my love of Disney with my love of robots. There is no price yet, but I hope I can afford it whatever it is!
- A Handy Guide to Marvel NOW!
I’d basically been avoiding/ignoring what I could of this not-a-reboot reboot, but this guide was very helpful and actually made me decide to keep an eye on a few things afterall.
Such is the power of Jojo’s:

Hisui’s picks:
- Manga Out Loud : Shout, Shout, Let it All Out
- What a Charity Case: From a little while back. Manga Out Loud looks at manga related Kickstarter projects. More companies are getting in on the action but is that a good thing? It is passing the hat around, patronage, a pre-order system, a new method of finance, or something else entirely?
- CLAMPing Down: Manga Out Loud looks at the works of CLAMP. They are one of the most famous examples of fans turned pro in the manga industry. With a very diverse catalog opinions are mixed on which titles go in the good, the bad, or the ugly pile.
- Bruce Wayne Gets Shanghaied
Narutaki is not the only one who can post Batman links. This is a rather short but fascinating re-imagining of Batman as a crime fighter on the means streets of Shanghai. Since it is a short they can go hog-wild on the animation and it shows.
- If the World End November 1st You Will know Why
Mamoru Nagano’s Gothicmade is apparently set to come out on November 1st in theaters. Part of me still thinks I will only believe it when I see it. I still enjoy that Mamoru Nagano is like half the staff listed in the credits of the movie.
- So How Long Until an Elementary Manga?
BBC TV’s Sherlock gets a manga adaptation. We were talking about manga on the blog before we even knew it was manga. This is just the perfect excuse … I mean reason to talk about the show more.
- Type-Moon News Round Up
- Walking the Line: The line art included the the 2nd Fate/Zero box set is quite impressive.
- Viva La Vita!: The promo for Fate/Stay Night [Realta Nua] for the Vita is out. It now has a bit of the opening song as well. Man I wish this could get licensed.
Narutaki’s picks:
- The Synthetic Orchestra
My link is to his “making of” video but you can go to his entire library and listen away! It is hard to believe one guy can make this happen with such richness in the music.
- Rob Liefeld VS. The Universe
If you aren’t up on comics news, you might have missed creator/artist/writer Rob Liefeld’s very public resignation from DC projects. If that weren’t enough he also had a few words for Tom Brevoort from Marvel and Scott Snyder writer for Batman at the moment. Everyone under the sun seems to be dragged into this so don’t get left out!
- It’s Official: Joss Whedon Working on S.H.I.E.L.D. TV Series
My big question is whether or not Samuel L. Jackson will be making any appearances on the show. On the one hand, he is probably way too busy and way too expensive. On the other hand, more and more film stars are showing up on TV shows. Maybe a few cameos can be arranged at least.
- No More Layton
The next Professor Layton game is to be the last, I don’t know if I truly believe it! Or maybe I just don’t want to believer. But then again there are far worse things than two fun-tastic puzzle solving trilogies. I’ll be curious if we get any more Layton anime or manga in the near future, fingers crossed!
- Now You’re Knitting With Power
100% for real. This kind of rendered me speechless.
This picture just makes me laugh:

Narutaki’s picks:
- Best News of SDCC: Phineas & Ferb Superhero Crossover
Disney is finally taking advantage of the Marvel characters being part of their library. There will be a special next year with many Marvel heroes accidentally ending up in Phineas & Ferb’s story. There is a short video so we know what to expect, I know the results will be amazing!
- Batman: The Animated Series Rises
Amazing trailer of The Dark Knight Rises using footage from Batman: The Animated Series. And the greatest part? It was officially made for a marathon on The Hub.
- Pixar in Concert
The West Coast gets all kinds of cool goodies like this! I can only hope these Pixar symphonies are so popular they start touring.
- No Black Panther Movie in the Works. Why?
I was really disappointed that rumors were put to rest about a Black Panther movie when it was finally revealed Marvel is making an Ant-Man movie. This article takes on the reasoning behind their decisions and how their PR spin just doesn’t make sense.
Hisui’s picks:
- EVOLving Taste
The best review is one that gets you to watch a show you only had marginal interest in before. Andrew and Carl’s review of Aquarion EVOL convinced me to actually sit down and watch the show. While it is a sequel to the original Genesis of Aquarion you do not have to see the first series to enjoy this one.
- Marvelous Mechanical Mischief
Pixiv can have some unusual pictures. Some are works of beauty and others are more likely to invoke your vomit reflex. But one artist on Pixiv has a collection of collages that attempt to show the evolution of mecha through the decades. Consider it either a history lesson or a challenge to see what he missed.
- Jojo’s News Roundup
- Type-Moon News Roundup:
- Misty, Water-Colored Memories: Nitroplus exhibit at Kotobukiya Museum Akihabara has a whole slew of items but if you jump to the bottom you will see all the Fate/Zero goodies.
More mash-up fun!
