- Streaming ACTUALLY Matters
Finally, Neilsen is implementing technology to measure streaming TV data starting with the fall 2013 line-up. The new process is low on details thus far and the first time around certainly won’t be perfect, but it is a step in the right direction. Will we soon see shows saved by their online streaming audiences that don’t tune-in to a show’s regular time slot? I hope so.
- Draw in 3D
Yeah, seriously, I have no words so cool.

November 13, 2012
Due to a combination of factors I missed out on going to Otakon in 2008 and therefore I missed the JAM Project concert. I regretted not going because it really did feel like I missed one of my very few opportunities to see JAM Project live. And JAM Project rocks pretty hard so it felt like a real loss especially considering how many positive reviews there were of the concert. But for Otakon’s 20th anniversary they decided to start pulling out all the stops even before 2013 by announcing the first Otakon Music Festival this year with three very special guests. The opening acts were Natsuko Aso and Faylan. I can’t say I really knew either singer apart from Faylan doing the opening to Canaan. But the headliner was obviously the band that would let me rectify my poor choice years ago.

Narutaki’s picks:
- A Love Letter to Wild Arms
Wild Arms was the first game I ever bought for the Playstation. It’ll always hold a special place in my heart because of that, but it also happens to be a great RPG! So it was great to read about someone else’s love for the series.
- Blow Me
This art show combines old school games with vinyl styling!
- Geek Girl Fashions
There is always something to see on Etsy. Sailor Moon shoes, who doesn’t want that? And everything from the Rebel Alliance to Doctor Who is represented, too. And how about a totally awesome NES bag or maybe R2D2? I don’t think I’d pay $70+ for them, but they are still really cute.
- Tim Burton + Pokemon?
I didn’t know this combo would be such a winner!
Hisui’s picks:
- Got Some Election Time Blues?
It is easy to get a bit overwhelmed with all the election coverage in your face all the time. Even if you are concerned sometimes you need a break. Chris at the Comics Alliance has the antidote. His article on the “BEST” comics election material is sure to put a smile on your face. And make you wish you could vote for Batman.
- I Lied
I said there would not be anymore Otakon coverage. BUT I forgot to mention the special clause that mentions if people talk well about my panels I make a special exception. All Geeks Considered’s Vincenzo Averello discusses his trip to Otakon.
- Hayate Finally Gets Married
Ryoko Shiraishi the voice actress for Hayate Ayasaki and Aoi Nogami was just married therefore the Zettai Karen Children mangaka just did a wonderful little comic to celebrate the event. I hope to see what Hata does to congratulate her as well.
- Help the Citizens of Hinamizawa
MangaGamer is trying to get Higurashi distributed on Steam. You you like the game, the anime, or visual novels in general go and give them a vote.
- Here Come the Moonies
For everyone who enjoyed the first opening to Space Brothers the most.
- Type-Moon News Round Up
To continue the love.
