Bandai Visual USA announced today the release of two of the most heartfelt and captivating tales from Bandai Visual’s library: Shigofumi: Letters from the Departed and True Tears both consisting of seven volumes with the first volumes to be released in DVD beginning in May 2008

Both shows are still currently airing on TV and Bandai has announced for a release for the NA shores. That’s fast imo and both titles are pretty hot titles. Good news indeed =D

THE High Court on Tuesday dismissed anime distributor Odex’s attempt to obtain the names of PacNet (previously called Pacific Internet) customers who had allegedly downloaded the animated Japanese cartoons. Instead, it ordered the Internet service provider to reveal their identities to six Japanese anime studios

Update from ANN which I read about -

Odex has also been ordered to pay 20,000 Singapore dollars (about US$14,000) for Pacnet’s legal costs.

It just ran through my mind - How many working days does it take for the Shigofumi to be sent? If someone dies on a saturday, does the letter get processed only on Monday morning?

That new PS2 is scheduled to arrive in Asian retail stores on February 4, just in time for the Lunar New Year, but Sony didn’t say if the Crimson Red Treasure edition was coming to North America.

I guess the PS2 isnt going to die that fast yet, the crimson red PS2, known as Aka Takara Kurenai is a limited edition of the slim PS2.

went down to the SOY cosplay fest 2008 happening in singapore today.i would say it was pretty interesting seeing all people from different ranges of age cosplaying in the same place xD of course,what caught most attention was the kids sitting right in front of me! (picture right below) since i was right behind them i managed to talk to them a little and get to know more about them ^^ for example the girl (left) is only a grade 2 student while the boy (right) is turning 5 this year!!!reason they’re cosplaying is because it’s a family thing. all their cousins are out cosplaying today as well!!! yups! managed to get to know their aunts and cousins and so on…well then, guess i’ll leave more of the talking to the photos i’ve taken today! do enjoy xP

  My initial thoughts before SOY were as such - “I was in NP, how come I’ve never heard of the “Tsubasa Club” and such?”, “A Cosplay event in the mid-western region of Singapore on campus grounds, just how many people will turn up?”.

To my surprise, the event was relatively well organized, and a decent number of cosplayers and photographers showed up. Not as many gothic-lolitas this time, shall not go into the possible reasons for such.

Only 11 episodes!!?? I need more! MOYASHIMON! I want the plushies.

Sad to say that I’ll be leaving Abanzai!. It was very interesting writing about anime and anything related to it. Thanks to oOgA for letting me write on his blog. Do whatever you want with this account. Not so sure if I will return, but I think I won’t. I enjoy reading the comments, especially Zzz… Time to write a long post or long enough that will conclude my farewell.
