I'm currently watching Paniponi Dash, and Brittney Karbowski is one of the VA's. I'm trying to imagine her as Schokolade from Jormungand, since I also remember her as Ayu from Kanon. I think I can picture her doing a slightly more mature voice, but not too mature, as Schokolade isn't exactly a dark, brooding character. I look forward to it, nevertheless!
Yoshiyuki Sadamoto can do no wrong in my eyes. His art really influenced my own, so whenever he creates something new, I have to take a look at it!
And, oh hey, Medaka Box is out! The first half of the series isn't very impressive, but towards the end it picks up and become far more enjoyable. I think it was seeing Medaka tip-toe the line between altruistic god and wrathful monster near the end that drew me in.
I kind of agree. Kick-Heart may very well be Masaaki Yuasa's oddest work, if only stylistically. Even then that's saying something. This is the guy that brought us Mind Game and Kaiba, two of the weirdest anime I've ever seen, yet even they had some grounding in suspension of disbelief. However, I can't hate Yuasa for one piece of work that is good/great at best (he also directed The Tatami Galaxy, which is one of my favorite anime of all time). It may not be Rejected levels of quality, but I expect Kick-Heart to make it to the Academy Awards decision process. It will be difficult to gauge its performance once it gets there.

Happy to see a Vocaloid game hit stateside. Now if only they'd just bring over Hatsune Miku and the Future Stars for the 3DS... don't neglect the American Vocaloid fans with Nintendo systems, Sega!

I could not watch 'KickHeart'; that's just not for me, content or style-wise.

Miyazaki will be highly missed. Maybe his son can learn to step up to the plate. (Maybe.) Thanks for the news!

Yoshiyuki Sadmoto's drawing of Miku is really pretty! I should start reading KH manga again.
