Back for the holidays (and with a pretty big update too!)

December 14, 2008 by Leave a Comment

Hey ^^ It’s been quite a while but I’m finally on vacation now and I’m ready to do some long overdue blog posts! X) Unfortunately my vacation is only 3 weeks long but since I don’t have too much planned, I’ll probably spend a good amount of time catching up on blog posts and site updates. Today I did a pretty big update on the main AnimeYume.com site, adding a bunch of new media files and pictures, so you can check that out. In addition to doing at least a couple more updates on the main site (and possibly adding new anime sections), here on the blog I’m planning to write reviews of a few fall 2008 anime series I’ve been watching, post scans of some 2009 anime calendars, and also write a couple of game reviews. Hopefully I’ll be able to cram all that into 3 weeks, so check back within the next few days! =D

The Anime Preference Survey 2008 results

September 17, 2008 by 1 Comment

The results of the Anime Preference Survey (2008 version) are now posted! I opened this survey a little over 3 weeks ago (I had one in ’06 and ’07 too) and it was basically a quick survey recording general preferences, interests, and tastes among anime fans such as how they watch anime, what anime products they buy, favorite series, etc,. The survey received about 160 participants…not as many as I would have liked, but still enough to make some sort of statistical inferences about the interests of anime fans nowadays ^^

Click here to see the survey results. I’ve also commented on the results and compared some of them to last year’s survey.

The Anime Preference Survey 2008 version

August 22, 2008 by 8 Comments

I conducted the 2007 Anime Preference survey a little over a year ago with very interesting results. If you would like to take the new 2008 version, click here. It’s basically a quick survey recording some general preferences, interests, and tastes among anime fans. Like the 2007 version, it’s 20 quick questions that should only take a few minutes (you’re also not required to answer all of them). The statistics of these surveys usually prove very interesting so if you could take a few minutes for the survey, I’d really appreciate it! ^^

Also, if you want to see the results from the 2007 version, click here. Depending on how quickly I get responses to the 2008 survey, I should have the results posted sometime within the next 2 to 3 weeks so check back! =)

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 =)

Anime Yume’s 6th year anniversary!

June 30, 2008 by 1 Comment


Yup, today my site (animeyume.com) turns 6 years old. I can’t believe it’s been so long! 0_0 Six years ago on June, 30th 2002 I bought a domain name from geocities and started my own anime web site for the first time. Though the blog here is only about a year and a half old, the main AnimeYume.com site has been going fairly strong all these years and I intend to keep it going ^_^ Unfortunately during the past couple of years I’ve mostly only had time to do posts here on the blog rather than major work on the main site. But the main site already has over 4GB worth of anime images, media, and info, and I’m hoping to add more whenever I have the time =)

I was hoping to do a big “6th year anniversary” update today on the main site but I only had time to do a small update. I’m leaving for Anime Expo in a couple of days so I’ve been really busy preparing for that. But anyway, you can check the main site here for the small anniversary update and I’m looking forward to more wonderful years on AnimeYume.com! ^_^ Thanks again to all my loyal visitors!

Back from uni and ready for some site work!

June 13, 2008 by 2 Comments


Yes, it’s been a while. I can’t believe my last post was in April! 0_o As much as I wanted to keep blogging during my first year at university, schoolwork and club activities kept eating up my time. Since last September I’ve only managed to do a handful of posts and site updates during my winter and spring vacations. But now finals are over and I’ve got a nice 3-month long summer vacation ahead of me, which means plenty of time for site work! ^_^ I’ve got quite a few plans for both the blog and the main site this summer…

Big update on AnimeYume.com (and savoring the final days of spring break)

March 27, 2008 by 1 Comment


I’m finally back with a big update on the main AnimeYume site! There’s new anime sections, new mp3s, coverage of Anime LA, and also some random spring cleaning on various pages. My spring break is going by way too quickly so hopefully I’ll have time to do at least one more site update (and maybe a blog post or two) before I have to head back to school on Monday and return my sites to hiatus. Anyway, check out the main AnimeYume site here to see what’s new. I’ll be back soon (hopefully with the special project I’ve been working on since December!)

Happy Easter! (and briefly off of hiatus)

March 23, 2008 by 1 Comment

Happy Easter!
I’m not big on Easter at all but it gives me an excuse to post this adorable picture XD

Anyway, yes I’m on spring break now so I’m briefly taking my sites off of hiatus to do some much needed work on them. Unfortunately my spring break is only about a week long but I’m going to work on the sites, especially the main AnimeYume site, as much as I can during that time. So check back soon for updates =)
