(Wow, my first LJ update in a long time!)

In case you're wondering, yes, there is a deliberate double-meaning to the title here....! "Where has the scene progressed to these days??" VS "Where has the scene disappeared to these days?!" Both questions can be argued to have some truth behind them perhaps, depending on who or where you are. Although, ( Read more... )

Woah! It seems to be getting harder all the time to get around to updating the old LiveJournal these days....! Even the minimal effort I was making to keep updating information on the new anime seasons has fallen severely off-track -- gah!! I haven't had time to really check out much of the new shows, or to do much of anything else it seems (aside ( Read more... )

I haven't dared to give it any more than the quickest glance so far (actually, it's more like I haven't had the time yet!), but details are starting to come out about the new Spring anime season -- which begins next month.... however, I suppose it's not quite so worrisome a prospect if you've built up a degree of resistance to it all! (What?! ( Read more... )

Geez, it's been 3 months since the last time I made an entry in this thing.... but I'd might as well slip one in, since there is an extra day in this Easter weekend deal. **And thus, virtual chocoate eggs and bunnies to everyone who recognizes the subject line of this entry!** It doesn't seem like there has been a lot to talk about here lately, ( Read more... )

Merry upcoming Xmas, people!! (Or Happy SpaceDay, if that's the occasion you are more prepared to celebrate -- along with whatever variants or hybrids that might be to your liking!)

Hey, everybody (and especially r_lex!!), check this out....

Quite obviously based in (rather large) part on the old comic character Plastic Man, this is a series from The Philippines called "Lastikman"!!! Looks pretty cool, actually:


Online Videos by Veoh.com I haven't seen more than a couple of clips myself so far, but that's because it's only one ( Read more... )

OMG!!! Check these dudes out, y'all....

I was planning to post this sooner, but there never seems to be time for much of anything these days; and, it's already been time for this (since a while now!) -- it's ANOTHER new anime season! Perhaps luckily, there aren't as many new shows to follow for the summer line-up as there were for the spring line-up; but, you can get the details here ( Read more... )

Well, it's official.... "Bokurano" is ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!!! (If you read through my updated previous post about the new season of anime shows, and followed the link to the write-up included there, then you'll have an idea of the set-up for it already.) Gah!! I don't want to say too much about it and ruin it for anyone who might watch it, but I'm ( Read more... )

So, it looks like another round of Shadowplay nights has started up at The Speakeasy.... Night #2 will actually be a Summer Solstice event, held on Thursday June 21st. I suppose it will depend on how it does in this new Thursday night spot, as to whether it will continue as a long-term thing in this venue. As it's keeping the same Shadowplay name/ ( Read more... )
