- Kill La Kill is going to air on Toonami! In a reasonable time slot! I wrote recently that it won’t ever be a gateway anime, but this could prove me wrong. I’m just wondering how much they’ll have to blur to put this on American TV.
- The third episode of Assassination Classroom has been delayed due to the situation going on with ISIS and its Japanese hostages. Earlier this week Japanese Twitter users launched a Photoshop battle against ISIS to indicate that it wouldn’t be cowed by threats. Delaying a show about assassination attempts is likely a gesture of respect to the victims’ families.
- If you’ve got $1 million handy, you can buy a functional 13-foot mecha on Amazon Japan to further your world domination plans.
- If you like my blog but think all this talk of currently airing anime is exhausting, why not take a nostalgia break with the Anibaes? My friend Amber of Femsplain and her best friend David are re-watching Card Captor Sakura on their show.
- Speaking of my friends, Nathan Meunier has published his latest book all about writing and selling your own non-fiction Kindle book from start to finish. These are the techniques I used to bring Otaku Journalism into the world, only more polished. Also, it’s just $0.99.
- I started an advice column on my Gunpla site. Check it out and feel free to ask us your most pressing Gundam franchise questions!
