After constantly checking out the top rated AMVs on AnimeMusicVideos.org over the past year, I feel like I’ve finally seen enough to comply a list of what I feel are the best AMVs of all. After viewing over 50 of the highest rated AMVs, I’ve managed to narrow it down to the 15 best…
Fansubs and what the R1 industry needs to do
August 8, 2008 by 3 Comments
This has been a pretty hot topic amongst the English speaking anime world lately, especially with the collapse of Geneon and with ADV barely holding on. Now I don’t know much about business, licensing, finance, etc., nor about the inner workings of US anime companies. However, from what I’ve seen being an American anime fan for almost ten years, I definitely know that there are some things that need to be done in order to help the R1 anime industry recover, outdo fansubs, and to also please the majority of fans…

After hearing about and seeing images from 5 Centimeters per Second, I decided to sit down and watch it a few nights ago. And I’m glad I did take an hour out of my time for it because it is absolutely gorgeous…
First major summer site update
July 27, 2008 by Leave a Comment
I spent this entire past weekend working on my first major summer update on the main AnimeYume.com site. And it turned out to be one of the biggest updates I’ve done in quite a while ^_^ First of all I added two new anime sections for Lucky Star and Code Geass. I also added YouTube videos to almost all the 28 anime sections. And of course, there’s a handful of new mp3s too. So check out the main site for a complete rundown of all the new stuff. I’ll be back here on the blog with more posts soon, and I should also have at least a couple more updates on the main site before summer break ends =)

World Destruction is the latest series by Production I.G., set for a 13 episode run. So far I’ve seen two episodes, and although I don’t have too much to say about it yet, it piqued my interest right away…

I bought this puzzle somewhere in the dealer’s hall at AX and I finally finished it today. It was definitely one of the hardest puzzles I’ve ever done, but it came out gorgeous so it was well worth it…
What is Anime? – the Visual Definition (take two)
July 15, 2008 by 2 Comments
Back in December of last year I began working on my first big anime video project. It’s not an AMV but rather it’s a movie-length compilation of 50 different anime openings along with information about each series. My intention was to use the project as a way to introduce non-anime fans to the variety of anime that exists without them having to take the time to watch a lot of episodes…
