A number of short series just finished not too long ago including Senkou no Nightraid, Arakawa Under the Bridge and Working!! Really enjoyed the last two for their comedy and slightly less cliché cast of characters thanks to their odd traits. But time for the new season so lets have a look at ten of the shows running in Japan just now....
As you'll no doubt already know, a new production blog is up and running for Shinkai's next movie. But while we're waiting for the official site to be up with more details, here's the next part of the novel translated in English, "Cosmonaut" which is told from Kanae's perspective.
The water dazzled under the rising sun just above the...
The official site for Shinkai's forth movie isn't ready yet but production of the final movie is under way. He has also joined Twitter (in Japanese of course) and started a new production blog to keep track of the progress. He already has over 1000 followers at the time of writing. Apart from the short introduction from the blogs...
Went ahead and ordered a few official Uniqlo Evangelion 2.0 t-shirts from London's Uniqlo store which offers a one off, flat rate postage and packaging fee so if you're ordering, it's best if you ordered more than one item. Although most online stores offer free postage, Uniqlo doesn't but arrived the next day after dispatch. I was...
I'm sure regular visitors amongst you will know how much of a fan I am of Makoto Shinkai's 5 Centimetres Per Second by now. After looking through how much information I've gathered about the movie, I thought this blog wasn't giving it enough space to organise so I've decided to create a sub-site for it to have all the content accessible in...
Both the DVD and Blu-ray release of Evangelion 2.22 is finally out and since both copies come with the collector's film strip this time, I decided to go for the higher quality Blu-ray version. The packaging is fairly much the same as the 1.01 limited edition - A sturdy cardboard box except I think it's orange for the Blu-ray versions....
Gainax is due to release two A4 sized books containing a total of 650 pages this summer entitled, "Evangelion You Can (Not) Advance Complete Records Collection" which will feature the following...
There will be a case for the two books. First press copies will get two additional art board booklets, a film strip and early preorders...
An announcement has been made that there will be a Manga version of Makoto Shinkai's most recent movie, "5 Centimetres per Second". Yukiko Seike will be artist behind the coloured Manga and the serialisation will start in July's issue of Afternoon which will be on sale from tomorrow, May 23rd. On the other hand, Mizu Sahara was the...
There's no Uniqlo stores here in Scotland as far as I'm aware but for those of you Eva fans that do have access to one, you might want to watch out for these Eva Rebuild movie themed t-shirts due out in the second half of May. This should be better than going for the bootleg printed t-shirts that come off in a few washes ^^; Those of you in the UK...
Gainax is really pushing the Evangelion 2.22 marketing at full force with burgers and a fully themed convenience store. It might make sense considering how the simultaneous Blu-ray and DVD limited edition releases are out next month in Japan. Then again, the very first movie's DVD LE release still sold out last time without this much...
