Hisui’s picks:

• Century Color, Million Color
  Carl Li from Ogiue Maniax finally finishes up Turn A Gundam after starting it so long ago. As Turn A is my favorite Gundam series I always enjoy reading thoughtfully positive reviews of the series. In many way it was probably the best way for Tomino to finish his run as a director of Gundam series.
• The Origin of Sayla Mass
  As I have been behind on Gundam AGE I have also fallen behind on listen to Gundamn. But I had to listen to the latest episode as it has Ed Chavez talking about the upcoming release of Gundam: The Origin. He also talks about manga and being a cool dude in general. As he always does.
• Gone But Not Forgotten and Then Back Again. Also the Cage.
  After a Bit of a Hiatus the OSMCast finally releases a brand new (if slightly old) podcast. This time they talk about Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance with Daryl Surat from the AWO, Niko from CineGeek, and a Caleb who is not OneGreatTurtle. Hopefully the OSMCast is back in the saddle and ready to ride again.
• More Developer than a 1 Hour Photo Booth
  Most video games podcasts are a group of super fans shooting the breeze about what they like and don’t about what they are playing and discussing the fandom. Sometimes they are professional super fans. But the Atlanta Game Development Podcast has two game developers showing you behind the curtain of video games which is a wholly unique conversation that is worth checking out.
• Type-Moon News Round Up
  
  • The Return of the Mysterious Zero: A commercial for the most powerful part of the 2nd Fate/Zero box set!
    
  • Fighters Ready!: More teams are revealed for the Holy Grail Hot Springs War mini-game in Fate/Stay Night Réalta Nua for the PSP.

Narutaki’s picks:

• Current List for Best Animated Feature Oscar Nominations
  Since a couple of us were just thinking about what would be pushed for Oscars, this is a handy rundown of what has been submitted so far. We’ve still got time to go so this list with hopefully expand to 16+ which will let the category hold five nominees this year. I currently have my fingers crossed for Paranorman.
• Katamari Webcomic
  This series was just announced. The artwork is perfect for it, I can’t wait to read it! I’ll try to stop by the Shifty Look booth and panels at NYCC, too.
• Mars in HD
  Just wow, seeing the Curiosity footage so clearly does enhance the experience. Simply amazing, a completely other world!
• If Real Names Were Like an MMO

UNIVERSE!

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
  • 3-D King of Knights vs. 3-D King of Rapists: The prefect way top celebrate the release of the second Fate/Zero box set.
  • Hail the Conquering Hero: A better look at another Fate/Zero Rider figure.
  • Fate/Read Type One and Two: Two orignal pieces of art from Newtype magazine.

To continue the love.

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:
