Plans for AX!


The Anime Expo 2007 web site finally posted lists and descriptions of all the events that are going on during each of the four days. So today I started planning my schedule, taking note of all the events that I want to attend. I’m going for the full four days at AX this year, along with my friend pkjd from moetron.

Hare Hare Yukai parody – Pokemon version

I think the post’s title speaks for itself. Pika Pika Yukai! XD

Pikachu as Haruhi
Minun as Yuki
Plusle as Mikuru

And cameo by Itsuki

This is a good video considering it uses all original drawings and still flows with the song well. Whoever created it must’ve been dedicated to having their own unique Hare Hare Yukai parody video ^^

More thoughts on Bleach…


This is sort of a follow-up to my old post, “Bleach review: an overrated shounen anime.” I had written that review after seeing 100 episodes of Bleach (in the middle of the Bounto arc) and now I’ve seen 126 episodes. My thoughts about the series haven’t changed that much after 26 episodes, even with the new Vizard/Arrancar arc, but they have changed a bit so I thought I’d expand a little on my previous Bleach review. I’m not gonna repeat the things I said in the old review, but I will talk about any new opinions I have…

Inuyasha Drama CD: Aka to Shiro no Utagassen!


Wow, I can’t believe they’re still making new Inuyasha CDs! Actually this one came out in April, but still, it’s been over three years since the anime ended! 0_o And they’re still keeping all the old seiyuus together? Methinks that means there’s a good possibility for a new anime series in the works =) Maybe they’re just waiting until the manga finishes ~_^ Since Inuyasha has been losing its popularity over the past few years, I’m always on the lookout for new IY products to satisfy my obsession ^^ I heard about this CD a while ago…I just kinda forgot about it until a few weeks ago =P Better late than never I guess! Anyway, read on to see the track listings, my review, and brief synopsis of the CD, and also to download a RAR file of it…

Anime Preference Survey ’07 results posted!


I finally posted the results of the General Anime Preference Survey ’07, which I started back at the beginning of the month. Very interesting statistics if I do say so myself ^^ As a whole, the results turned out to be quite varied, meaning my site is visited by a good variety of anime fans. Anyway, you can find the results on the main AnimeYume.com site, or just follow the link here.

By the way, finals and graduation are coming up so next week I might not be able to post, but we’ll see how things go. However, my summer break is right around the corner so I should definitely have time to do some good posts then(and get out of this rut of “mediocre” posts I’ve been stuck in lately ~_^) Even though I’ll be taking a summer session at my college, it won’t be until mid-July. I’ll also be attending the full four days at Anime Expo this year so expect good coverage of that too! =)

Game review: Wii Play


If you enjoyed Nintendo’s complementary Wii game, Wii Sports, then Wii Play is the next best thing. You should still buy Wii Play anyway because it comes with a free Wii remote! ^^ But truthfully, I think it’s just as fun and clever as Wii Sports. Though the games are a bit less complex and less physically-involving than Wii Sports, Wii Play is still very addicting and makes great use of the Wii’s amazing wireless technology!

Another media update!


First of all, before I get to the new media files, I’ve got to apologize for the lack of posts these past few weeks. Some of it’s due to my addiction to Pokemon Diamond, plus the usual stuff like school, work, preparing for university next semester, and trying to catch up on all the anime in my “To-Watch” folder. Also, strangely, I just haven’t been able to think of good things to blog about lately. And now with finals coming up, I really won’t have much free time. But I’ll have some days off in the summer so I’ll definitely use that time to works on posts and other things. Anyway, as for the new media files…
