Otaku Links: Making Anime Great Again

otaku_links_kirino

We’re in the midst of a blizzard here in DC so Otaku Links is up a little late as I do things like buy groceries and find the flashlight batteries. There’s no chance I’ll be going outside all weekend, so I’m hunkered down with some Gunpla models and Ristorante Paradiso, which is apparently named after me. In the meantime I’m launching a t-shirt line and wrapping up the affiliate blog series. See you Monday!

  • Buying DVDs is far from the only way to support the anime industry. According to the Japan Times, online streaming has become a major revenue stream for anime studios. (HT Steve!)
  • What’s up with the smiley new Funimation logo? Justin at Organization Anti-Social Geniuses talked to the company about what into the redesign process.
  • At Anime News Network, myself and the other reviewers all answered the question: Which Anime Made You Cry? Don’t read mine unless you’ve already watched Silver Spoon.
