Spice and Wolf Season 2 Opening / Mitsu No Yoake (Honey Dawn) / English

Mitsu No Yoake (Honey Dawn) is the opening song for the second season of the anime Spice and Wolf sung by Akino Arai. This anime is one of few decent ones coming out lately -- others are pure nonsense. The song sounds nice - too bad I don't have the English translation --- yet. I hope someone will post for I want to know what the song wants to convey.

I hoping I could study Japanese and I'll translate it myself.

For the uninitiated manga = comics
anime = cartoons
ok?

The Tenth One Piece Film Strong World Teaser Trailer / Luffy Looks Fat

Trailer for the upcoming One Piece Film Strong World coming this December 12, 2009. Luffy looks fat probably because of what he is wearing.




One Piece is a story about a band of pirates and the quest of their captain to become the Pirate King -- available both in anime and manga (Japanese comics).

Wolverine & Iron Man Anime Trailers / This Is Not Wolverine!!!

Wolverine and Iron Man anime versions are coming and I have the trailers. Let me clear things up - first of all this was Marvel's idea so they could break into the Japanese market. Here's a report from mania.com:

Marvel Entertainment announced today that they're partnering up with the well known Madhouse to create some new series based off of Marvel Comics characters for the Japanese market. Similar to what was done by Gonzo with Witchblade, the series will be done in a way that fits into the Japanese anime sensibilities which means they may not retain a lot of familiar elements that the comics fans are familiar with.

So why anime? This is Marvel's way of making more money - reaching out to a new market. It's not a sin anyway.

Of course some people reacted negatively but the show wasn't made for them anyway. Here are some reactions from youtube:

"This is a very good quality video, a lot of time and effort has obviously been spent on it, it's just a damn shame It Doesn't Have Wolverine. Would watch it otherwise."

Many agreed with him.

"I Agree this is not Wolverine at all. Wolverine is a YELLOW SPANDEX WEARING Canadian!"

Yeah, also the guy who wears briefs outside his pants. This is NOT Wolverine at ALL LOL.

Wolverine Anime

Iron Man Anime

I don't know what to say but I got to see these shows first before reacting.

Don't Say Lazy Live Action

Don't Say Lazy live action from random Japanese girls. I told you before Live-action is a-ok. I'm not really interested in shoujo and I prefer action ones - but K-ON has been everywhere and one can't help but be drawn into it.

K-on! is one of the hottest animes right now and one of its songs reached the Oricon top ten months ago. But really I prefer a K-on live action drama! Hopefully it will come soon.

Trigun The Movie Trailer

Trigun The Movie was unveiled in Anime Expo several days ago. It has been a long time since I last saw this anime. It wasn't finished here but the action was awesome. Too bad. So far Trigun The Movie is in production stage and no release date announced yet. No decent trailer yet in youtube I'll change the video when a better one is uploaded. As for now, please enjoy!
