ok so we have all been there. you hear about a series, you check it out and it sounds good and you watch it. Only to find out its horrible and you end up being bored stupid. That happened to me when i watched Virus Buster Serge.
But every now and then the opposite happens, you watch an anime that you never heard about, and on paper it sounds like it will be terrible to mediocre at best and it turns out to be really enjoyable. this is what i experienced with Heat Guy J, now you probably never heard of it, cos i never did and only have the series as part of a fortnightly anime dvd collection thats ongoing in uk/ireland at the moment. I highly reccomend this Anime to everyone here, i wont go into too much detail here as im going to do a wiki, episode guide and review but basically its billed as a 'buddy-cop' show which is such a cliche and when you see its a human paired with an android you think its not the most original idea. But the difference here is that the characters are really well designed and the two main characters work really well together and share some good exchanges. The animation is solid the whole way throughout but the star of this show is really the story. it starts out as a mafia/crime based story and that whole mafia angle does not show up in anime much but not only is the story good by anime standards but this plot would hold up anywhere.
anyway ill say no more and leave the details to the wiki but i highly suggest you go to youtube and check this show out. if you watch the first 4 eps and have no desire to watch number 5 i will be shocked

Just as Gia covered with great speed to the world, Bandai Entertainment, Inc. announced that Kurokami is getting an anime and will have a simultaneous release in Japan, South Korea and here. Well, if by here, you mean the small amount of the nation that gets imaginAsian's iATV channel.
As much as the anticipation built towards this announcement (as seen on the AV forums), to me, it seems somewhat lackluster. I don't really feel excited about it. Perhaps it's because I'm not really familiar with the source manga (out in the US from Yen Press). I think if I were though and enjoyed it, I'd be pretty steamed about it not being on a channel I get. There within lies the problem. As much as we, the American anime fandom, want simultaneous releases, it doesn't mean much if we can't watch it. Perhaps if BEI will soon announce an online streaming option as well, then that would help mitigate the number of people who can't watch the show on iATV. That would be nice.
This is a great step for anime in America. It's just probably not as big as I would have hoped. That's not necessarily a bad thing. Small steps are good. Hopefully this will do well among iATV's viewership, and other networks like Sci-Fi or Cartoon Network (yeah, right) will be interested in the concept. I'm skeptical of Cartoon Network because last time they tried something close to this was probably IGPX, and they shot themselves in the foot with it by moving it as fast as they could to the Friday night graveyard after slipping ratings in an already-slipping and badly-timed Saturday afternoon Toonami. Sci-Fi Channel, however, might be more willing for this. They air Doctor Who fairly quickly after its broadcast in home country of England.
I look forward to more simultaneous releases. We already had Naruto Shippuden announced and now this. I'm sure there'll be more to come.

We have this inside joke on a livejournal community I moderate: "omg snow!" See, whenever it snows in portland, people rush to their livejournals to post to the community, and we get a half-dozen posts that can all be summarized as "HEY LOOK GUYS IT'S SNOWING," or "omg snow." It's so common now that some people post it just to be goofy, and whenever anything ELSE happens (like, say, an earthquake), people do the same thing to poke fun ("zomg earthquake!")
Anyway. I took some photos.

So i was talking to my boy this morning and we were discussing music and what we grew up with, I was telling him how in Kindergarten we did a perfomrance to the yellow submarine song by the beatles.... now this song if you dont know it is all bout being on drugs... yes I can see how it could be translated too a childrens song.. but...
WTF HELLO??? this is what my generation grew up doing... we also grew up with shows like The Goodies, Astro Boy, Eagle Riders (battle of the planets), Muppet show, Sooty.. SO TOTALLY UN PC shows its not funny!... and really if you look closeley at all the stuff us Generation Xers grew up with it explains why we are a messed up lot! Geek truly started to be cool in our generation.. Star Wars figurines were the first of their kind. I remember my brothers room being full of them.. that had never occured before us.. Oh they had lunch boxes, T-shirts etc but collectable figurines were started really with Star Wars.... NOT just toys anymore they were representations of what was awesome!
SO in a lot of ways... anyone who came after us who is into comics, anime, anything Geek and can be not bullied or beated up cause really its all kinda a lot more cool than it used to be
HAS US TO THANK!
so all hail Generation X we are a messed up lot but hey YOU GOTTA LOVE THE ORIGINAL GEEKS!

I've been running around all day getting ready for a holiday party I'm throwing. I panicked, I rushed, I put food in the oven, and...oh look! I forgot that my microwave's clock isn't changed for daylight savings time yet. It's not 6:12, it's only 5:12! Now I'm going to have to keep the damn pork loin warm for at least a half hour. X.x;;
But it should be good fun anyway. It better be, actually, considering how much I spent on food and drinks @_@; What are you guys doing for the holidays?

EDIT: Woops! I completely glazed over the general question of the most attractive character! (NOT females vs. males). I'll stick by my choice though (:
I sure had a lot of trouble with this one. The thing about anime is that they make every character very physically appealing. It's the personality that will define one as the most attractive. I wouldn't be able to choose one!
So through all that thought, I chose the female character from Interstella 5555. They don't give her name, but if you pay attention, they do give a profile. (the two are the same person)
