Wow, so I'm more than two years late (for the first season), but Ultra Galaxy is actually quite enjoyable, once I got a little more familiar with monsters fighting each other without transforming giant hero (well...so far ( Read more... )

(Guess I'll just post this before I lose courage and scrap it...)Let me preface this by saying I don't have any problem with Tsukasa's manners or lack thereof. He's totally fine the way he is. (And 'manner' probably isn't the word I'm looking for, but ( Read more... )

So I re-watched the new Ultraman movie because I just got a soft sub (thanks to yamatoforever for telling me that sub exists for the new Ultraman movie). Not a hundred percent certain, but I believe this soft sub comes from UltramanLah, courtesy of Psyke. I'm passing it along in case someone else is looking for sub (though everyone who needs sub probably has ( Read more... )

Picked up the first volume of a Tiga comic today (seems like the cover says it's from Tony Wong Production--not that I'm too sure). I really didn't know what to expect except to read a story featuring Tiga, I think.

( Mixed reactions; no real spoiler )

(Torrent link for the raw, in case I'm not the last person to have seen this movie. Actually, I want the DVD, but I don't know when I can get it. :( I especially want the subtitles (the first movie has them, so this one should, too); Japanese subtitles are better than nothing ( Read more... )

Tokyo Friend Park 2: 09/15/2008

Because I can't resist after finish watching this episode, which is, I assume, to promote the Ultraman movie. Ultraman Tiga and Ultraman Mebius appear, as well as fake kaiju (Red King and Baltan).

Okay, I guess Tokyo Friend Park 2 is another variety show, a la NEP League (reminds me that I still want to hunt down ( Read more... )

EDIT (many days later): Need more hints??? In an unlikely event that anyone still cares to play, the five yet still unidentified series are all listed on the interests on my profile. (Changed icon on the post, too; I couldn't be more obvious if I tried.)

(Original post below...)

And now, for a selfish post I do want to talk about...

( I misplace the instructions for this meme, so here is my long intro instead. )

Why do manga I read or toku I watch seem to have date(s) taking place in a zoo? I can't decide whether this is something I miss in the Japanese culture, or it's just mere coincidence that young Japanese couples seem to like going out to zoos. Anyway, I don't even know how to start looking up this information since it seems so specific.

( A list of series under here, in case there might be slim chances of spoilers. )

I should have a far more pleasant entry to write on the first anniversary of MEBIUS' ending, but more info on the new movie doesn't seem like very good news.

(This space was originally for what I really wanted to say.)

( ...But here are some random observations instead. Possible spoilers. )

Finished Dyna, so I've been watching Gaia. Man, this show is not subtle at all with its messages. In fact, I think it's more preachy than Cosmos. Basically, humans are the cause of everything bad happening on this earth, the reason evil creatures appear, the reason normally placid monsters attack Earth. ( More... )
