As oOgA has mentioned here, The Banzai Effect! (or as we call it, TBE or BE) has undergone it’s pre-launch and we are now beginning to shift our posts there. Our Anime Festival Asia report is currently being posted there so do go check it out!

Anime Banzai! will still be around so don’t worry! However, plans are that posts on it will be reduced to mainly anime previews, reviews and impressions so do visit our new site while keeping tabs on the old! Everything is still in the transition phase so give us some time to work out the bugs okay? ^^

The old man is getting married so how can there not be an official congratulatory post right here on the blog?

Congrats on moving on the the next step of your life Jellokun! You have now cemented your status as “old geezer” in both the forums and in our hearts.

I wish you happy times ahead and try not to give your other half as much grief as Sousuke did to Chidori. ^^

Though I’m sure your life will be pretty interesting if you did.

A friend of mine pointed out something interesting someone posted in one of our local forums…

u know rite i find it really amusing tt AFA08 is promoting the concert of May’n, a seiyu famous for Macross Frontier but Macross Frontier isn’t even available in DVDs in SG, (or) available on cable TV. so how do all the fans know abt Macross Frontier? so might as well go sue all those going for this May’n concert since most likely they watch Macross Frontier thru some illegal mean unless they prove they import the DVDs.

this is like so stupid, want to promote anime and yet try to kill anime at the same time, so typical sg.

I always thought the sudden silence after the odex case was abit ominous although I tried to ignore that. Anyway, it looks like shit is about to hit the fan. I wonder how do they define a heavy downloader? Another 9 year old kid perhaps?

I’m not going into the whole argument of fansubs versus DVD thing because it has been argued to death and back countless of times. Instead, why not you just read the article and decide for yourself?

Oh Kagami <3

And here it is finally, the 3 4koma comic strip I mentioned I was going to make. As you can see from the picture above, it is based on the Kagamiku part of the Lucky Star OVA (if you don’t, shame on you!).

Ever wondered what happened after that? XD

I decided to try out a few suggestions I heard here and there this time such as removing the wrist joints or erasing the Figma stand port at the back of the Figmas (though only the last 4koma). See if you can spot them. XD

And there you go. No surprise there. I’m sorry for Tsukasa but Kagami is just too much for her XD.

So here’s to next year’s Saimoe. Cheers.

Well that’s certainly unexpected. As much as I like Tsukasa, I certainly did not expect Hinagiku to lose. Setsukyie is crying buckets right now.

Well, this means that Tsukasa will be facing off with her twin sister Kagami for the winner of Saimoe 08. Somehow I feel Kagami will win. But then again……

Better pray they dun come knocking on your door ^^
