Koge-Donbo’s Harry Potter fan art


*Click the image for a larger version*

Famous manga artist Koge-Donbo is best known for her “cute” character designs, especially in her popular series Di Gi Charat, Kamichama Karin, Pita Ten, and others. It’s also well known that she’s a Harry Potter fan. About nine years ago I came across some of her Harry Potter illustrations and saved them to my computer. And now, since I recently saw the new HP movie and am currently reading the final book, I decided to look back at these old, but still pretty, drawings of Koge-Donbo’s…

The anime art gallery that is my room

null

For the past ten years or so, a little quirk of mine has been to cover every inch of my room with anime pictures and products. On a previous post, I shared photos of how my room looked last year. Since then, I’ve hung up new pictures, rearranged old pictures, and displayed new goodies. So I decided to once again share photos of my anime immersed room, the “2009 edition” XD

Back from Japan (here’s all the anime goodies I bought!)


Me in front of a big K-ON! poster ad in Akihabara

I got back from my 3-week stay in Japan a couple of days ago. To say the least, I had an awesome time but it’ll take me a while to gather all the photos and write complete coverage of my trip. So for now, I decided to simply share photos and info about the anime goodies I bought while I was there, particularly at the anime center of the world, Akihabara.

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

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

Anime import calendar scans


I’ve been collecting original Japanese anime calendars for a few years now, either buying them myself or downloading the scans online. I’m just a big sucker for large, original, and gorgeous images of official anime artwork! XD As of today, I have over 150 calendar scans on my computer from 11 different anime (and I always add a few more each year). Since I started collecting the import anime calendars, I created a page on the main Anime Yume site to post them. As the years went by however, that page fell into a bit of a disarray but I finally took the time today to organize the calendar scans and to also share them here on the blog…
