Fujoshi Dossier Co-Conspirator

Anyone who has visited Ogiue Maniax will quickly realize that Carl is quite infatuated with Chika Ogiue. As Ogiue is a fujoshi she acted as a gateway into Carl’s interest in fujoshi characters in anime and manga. So he started writing a series of posted called the Fujoshi Files where he profiles various yaoi obsessed characters. I recently mentioned to Carl that he should add Patty Crew to the files as she is a fairly high level fujoshi from Zettai Karen Children. After Carl read the manga he agreed that she deserved a place in the hallowed halls of women who are BL fanatics. If you want to see what evil I unleashed on this world you can see what Carl wrote about her on his site.

For the record my favorite character from Zettai Karen Children is Shiho Sannomiya.

Narutaki’s picks:

  • LEGO for the Holidays
    I spent a good portion of my weekend decorating my place for Christmas. Sadly, I did not have a giant LEGO Christmas tree but now I have a goal!
  • Lost Disney Film Found
    A short of Oswald the Lucky Rabbit was recently discovered in a UK film archive, it was thought lost forever. The one of a kind film will go up for action later in December. It would great if it was made available online for viewing.
  • Everyone Draws Tiger and Bunny
    No one can get enough of this crime-fighting duo! Manga-ka from Asuka magazine and various others have posted fan-art from the popular TV series. I would love to see an artbook collected of famous artist interpretations of Tiger and Bunny.
  • Intro to CLAMP and Gackt’s Project Streamed
    Their live show collaboration MOON SAGA Yoshitsune Hiden will be on USTREAM on December 5th. There aren’t a whole lot of details about it beyond that.
  • House of Five Leaves on DVD
    FINALLY! FINALLY!! And it wasn’t Funimation who finally made good on this show, but rather NIS America. This also means a very special limited release with artbook coming out in March.

Again, finally a House of Five Leaves DVD release!
